Sujet: Why do STL fans want to move Parayko so bad?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Eli</b></div><div>I think they're worried that he's declining already, and want to get some value back before he turns into Bouwmeester.

At the same time, Eastern teams still remember Bouwmeester as being awesome. I bet you could get a decent player like Brooks Orpik for him, if you threw in a pick and a prospect to make up for how bad he actually is. Who knows. Maybe a change of scenery gets them each over ten points. But at least with Orpik you get some hits.</div></div>

Just wanted to pop in non-constructively and tell you that I probably disagree with 100% of what you say on this site. No one thinks Parayko is declining, he has 3 seasons of NHL duty and his role has increased each year. Bouwmeester started declining after some bad injuries at age 33...

Bouwmeester + pick + prospect for Orpik would make me vomit uncontrollably. Hits are a useless stat - check the hits stats for teams in the basement of the league: all the worst teams are at the top of the list... hmmm... teams that can't play with the puck have the most hits; players with the worst possession numbers have the most hits. Clearing the crease is nice and all, but breaking up possession on entry attempts and controlling the puck rather than chasing it all shift are probably what better teams do.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Eli</b></div><div>I did. I googled S Day. I've posted a link to each of them now. And some hilarious puns for your enjoyment, free of charge!

You didn't.

If you're not part of the solution... you're part of the precipitate.</div></div>

wow even though this is not enough for hanifin do your homework on sean day before acting like an individual that has hit a crack pipe one too many times. One link that just shows statistics does not fully show a prospects profile. Day was granted exceptional player status to play in junior-- not given to many people. the potential is there, the difficult thing was his personal issues (not a joke when your older brother goes to prison for killing someone) caused a hiccup in his development. Still a steal of a pick for the third round at #81. His value skyrocketed once he was traded to windsor last year as it was able to open up another part of his game. He's shown great ability in terms of skating and offensive capability and has the big bodied frame and the combination of that fits the prototypical NHL defenseman of todays game. While he probably wont be in the NHL for another 2 years-- i'm stoked that the rangers have him

Sujet: Why not all three?
As of now Hayes and Spooner are similar with contract extensions. I would give both roughly 4.1-4.2 for 3 years/4 years. Hayes isn't worth 5mil+ as of now. I like the Gilmour 2 year 1mil deal. Vesey deal reminds me of Calle Jarnkrok deal similar stats 3rd-4th line guys. Now with the Namestnikov deal. Vladislav really benefited from Stamkos and Kucherov. NYR is far from having talent like those two but I do believe Vladislav is a solid player. Sadly his stats from previous years aren't amazing so you can see a production boost with such a talented given line. I believe NYR will have full control of this deal and maybe give him a 3 year maybe even 2 year 4.25 AAV contract until his RFA rights are up making him an UFA and that's when NYR will know if Vlad is indeed apart of the bright future in New York. I like the ideas you have.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JT_Miller</b></div><div>Hey everyone, i have a quick question regarding the number of max contracts. I know the contract cap is 50 but when i went to edit my team earlier today i counted up the number of players on my roster and the ones in the non roster section and it was 56. I looked into the roster, cap, and contracts thread and saw the previous devils gm reported that he had 45/50 contracts and that report was made on February 2. The only moves he made after that before i took over the team was claiming Anton Forsberg on Feb. 4 which i would assume would make 46 out of 50 contracts. Are some of my non roster contracts not counted towards the 50 contract max which would explain the 10 player difference, or is there an issue with how many players i have under contract?</div></div>

Some of this is my fault from when I was the "filler" GM of New Jersey for about a week. I noticed that the former GM had around 53 contracts and I didn't know what I should do honestly.

Like <a href="/users/TonyStrecher" target="_blank">@TonyStrecher</a> said, just try to get under the limit ASAP. Ideally before the start of April, but given how this passed over around 3 GMs, my advice is just to get it under as soon as possible.
