Well now you're just gettin' greedy :D
I'd be shocked if Jumbo isn't back. Perhaps this year he goes for a Patty Marleau type of deal.
Tavares ? Won't believe it till I see it.
It seems I'd need at least a 1/2 hour after the fact to believe it

Think it’s worth mentioning that SJ probably got a better return from Florida even in a strictly hockey sense than Ottawa got from them so why didn’t the Sens just trade Hoffman to Florida in the first place lol

Is it me or is South Beach and Hoffman's GF a pretty perfect match?

Couldn't trade him inside the division. Only learned top hockey men understand why, though. Maybe you'll get there someday.

So I guess we should rule out Florida signing John Carlson?

LOL. I knew what I'd find but had to look it up anyway; Boedker only makes $3M/year for the duration of his contract but the cap hit is $4M.

Oh Eugene, you've done it again!!

:burt:


Not that I mind Boedker as a player. I actually think he's good but it sucks when every trade has to somehow line Uncle Eugene's pockets.

Well, that'll teach me to go to a meeting.


I hope she picks a Twitter fight with Strombone next.

*coughs because of amount of dust on account*

What the hell Ottawa/Florida? Also I’m embarrassingly invested in this Hoffman stuff. I want a reddit investigation.

I have sent a resume to Melnyk, but apparently he doesn't want a real investigation because he hasn't called.


My cap hit is lower than my salary though.

See if there had been an achielles injury you may have gotten some traction. But it’s June and Eugene is in the Caribbean out of cell range anyway...

All good! Like my athlete counterparts I was burnt out from a few long playoff runs. (This is mostly a joke...but I was honestly relieved when they were done.)

Huh, well that was a productive morning Doug. Turning Boedker into a 2nd, 4th, 5th and cap space it's solid work.

Wish him well in Ottawa, he never really clicked here like I hoped he would. Although he did finally start finding hiss game in the second half of this season.

I'm such a bad hockey man.

/Is this a new thing for the Sens tho?

-Got Celine from the Leafs
-Gave Lehner to Buffalo
-Got toasted by Doug Wilson so they wouldn't help Florida by sending them an asset so toxic Superfund doesn't want anything to do with him?

That's weird.
