time for a new thread for a new season that begins today. Canada Day. Free Agent Frenzy. 

Will the Jets trade Trouba?  Will they resign Scheif to an 8 year deal?  

Will Boston, as heavily rumoured, offer sheet Trouba?  What about the rumours of the Jets in a three way deal with Edmonton and Avs?

Stay tuned!

Looks better then Barclays but still looks squeezed in. Missing seats in corner.

I hope Henderson sues wideman. What a piece of ****. 

I don't know if you can totally blame Wideman.  Ya it was a dumb thing but if he was concussed and had no idea for real.... can you? It's hard to prove either way tho

I don't believe it for one second 

Well the arbitrator who reduced his suspension did. Like I said tho... pretty hard to prove. Big time ****** move by Wideman but what if he legit had no idea what he was doing? I mean I've had a concussion or 3 or 4 and besides the first one where I was basically out like a light... falling off a bike head first on to concrete does that.... the other ones I thought I was fine but 20 seconds later... I certainty wasn't. So who really knows. The only person who knows for sure is Wideman. I'd suspect that he was somewhat concussed. I think he was fully aware of what he was doing at the time cuz he obviously knew how to make it back to the bench... question is did he know it was the ref tho? Who really knows 

I've had concussions. Never did that and acted like an entitled **** afterwords. Cowardly jerk. If he legit was out of his mind he would have acted different. Complete horse ****. And besides regardless he still is responsible and henederson should sue

Does it matter if it were a ref?

If it were a player, would that make it okay?

He should be gone for 60 games minimum.

Before you ask, yes I have had a concussion before.

 

The Colorado Avalanche beat an NHL arbitrator to the punch by signing defenceman Tyson Barrie to a four-year, $22 million contract Sunday.

Sorry if this has been posted already.

 

5.5m per year and only one year of free agency I think. Overpaid if you ask me.

Money for Barrie was about right but they did not get enough term and he will be a free agent at 29,  if he continue's playing as a 1-2 d they will have to pay heavily for him to stay

My opinion too.

Why not lock him in for at least 5 or 6 years?

I guess the arbitrator's forthcoming decision had something to do with it.

I remember spending hours after practices with the rest of my team trying to do that trick with the puck...helped that ice time was cheap in Niverville...

 

Seems like Kane has some anger management problems to go with his entitlement issue's.

Such jerks you guys are! It's the guy's birthday geeez! Priorities.

 

At this rate not even Vegas will want him.

NYR will of course because NY.

Nobody will give up much of anything for Kane but if Buffalo wants to get rid of him... some team will trade a crap prospect or contract or 3rd round pick for him 

Former Moose coach McCambridge is now asst with Hardford.

Vancouver will probably give up more than that.
