Preseason is over.  Time to get to the real season and do it in style like only Jagr can.

You cant trade them either. Cap hits are 2 high. Crawford being hurt is killing them. 

Kane is tradeable. He's still an elite player. Toews has put in some hard miles though, and it's starting to show. I wouldn't want him with that contract.

I stopped saying that the year Phaneuf & Clarkson's contract were traded.

Not many teams have space for what? 10.5 million a year? 

A few do for sure but Id imagine if Toews or Kane have any sort of NTC.. Those teams are on it. Carolina for example... I could see Toews interest there.. Would he agree to go there tho? I'd bet not. 

Edited February 13, 20187 yr by Goalie

Yeah... any perennially struggling club like Arizona, Carolina, or Florida would be crazy to turn down Toews, even at 10.5 mil for the next 5 years.

It'll be interesting to watch, a) as a Toews fan & fan of the local guys and b ) more importantly with CHI being a rival.  

of course it's all moot if Hawks win lottery, draft Dahlin, win 3 more Cups.

It's crossed out, so it can't happen thankfully. 

DId they get their contracts before Cup 2 and 3?

Its not a matter of if those teams would... Its a matter of would Toews want to go there.

Well if they are blowing things up in Chicago, who knows what he wants?  Lots of guys like to go to those southern teams.  Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn't.

They both signed eight-year deals in July 2014.  So the 2015 Cup was on the new deal but the 2010 and 2013 Cups were not.

No clue.  But you wonder how / if they keep Kane and Toews long term if they aren't a playoff contending team.  How do you rebuild with 20% of your cap tied up in 2 players? 

Exactly why Vancouver has sucked so badly for so long. The twin boat anchors using up all the cap space.

 

Hmm. Simmons there... Hes our capologist lol... Interesting. Scouting sens? Or pens? Big deal for Simmons to be there

Think they are scouting the Sens roster.

Thinking Paqaeu, Brassard would cost way to much, not a fan of Cole but as a depth d sure why not.

3rd line of Perreault Pageau Armia be sick. 

Then Copp Lowry Tanev as your shutdown line.

For Pageau? Id do Petan and our 2nd or 3rd. No 1st for him. 

well at least the NHL would go to a place where there SHOULD be hockey

I know it's not for a while yet, but I worry what this does for the divisions in the Western Conference.

BREAKING:

 

How many years left on his contract?   

I'm not typing the "p" word, so it can't be bad luck....
