Why are every teams overpaying for players? Do they not realize that the cap isn’t going up anytime soon.

Might have to do with the fact that teams are so interested in players they’ll go all in to get them

Because flat cap is rendering teams desperate

Don't tell Drury

Cause GMs are dumb

So apparently Oilers giving Barrie 5x3 and are also looking at The Man, The Myth, The Pylon, Cody Ceci

Atrocious offseason, my goodness.

Coleman likely signing with the Bruins for 6mil x5 which is a massive overpayment

Their window is slamming right shut. I think they've got one season left. Then, when Bergy starts to fall of a cliff, they'll be screwed, with no one to replace him

Carter Verhaeghe has signed a 3 year extension worth around 12.5 ( remember extension not signing )

Sounds good in theory but it could massively backfire if this season turned out to be a flash in the pan

Florida is playing risky with Verhaeghe, Bennett, Forsling and Montour.

yeah, high risk high reward

They really are

Good morning to everyone expect Don Waddell. You resigned literally NO ONE.

Soon to be DeAngelo

Congrats on your nice shin—sorry congrats on having cancer Tony D

Alec Martinez: 3-year extension with #VGK at $5.25 million AAV. Includes $1.5 million SB in each of final two years, plus a modified NTC all three years with varying numbers of teams.@DFOHockey @Sportsnet

Great. First prediction I got 100% correct.

Me vs Tony D is gonna be just like you vs Comeau.

Good deal for now but Vegas better hope he doesn't fall off a cliff

Because he’s a 1st line winger and he’s going to sign for cheap.

Comeau is 20 pounds heavier and two inches taller than Tony D. You have this in the bag.

Difference being that Tony D at his best could be a solid offensive D. Comeau will always be a 4th line potato

I would make them both mashed potatoes.
