<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mr_cap</b></div><div>Found it.




"Mr Cap, the savoir of our game is back
Time has passed, yet his humour still doesn't lack
His heart, his soul, forever engraved in the game
A meme machine, he deserved all his fame


He was a leader, and darn good at that
Yet had his quirky moments, being a good 'ol rat
He even took the Yotes, for Leafs to be free
All for the next GMs, to go on a roster spree


Yet one day, Cap had enough games
He went out on RAIF like a burning flame
So no-good BreKel reported all he had done
And there the Mods took him, our prodigal son


Yet now he is back, rejuvenated as hell
Free from his ban, free from his cell
And as he comes back, we can all say
Halilujah, oh have we waited for this day


So here's to Cap, to all he's done
For his legacy, for sure, will never be gone"

This was the most liked post on the CapFriendly forums to ever exist. I appreciate the competition <a href="/users/A_K" target="_blank">@A_K</a>, but any artwork related to the V1 return of Mr Cap will always be superior to everything else.

Sujet: Seattle Expansion Draft Beta
Everything looks great with the tool <a href="/users/Banks" target="_blank">@Banks</a>

I did notice that when you've selected the expansion-rules number of players allowed to be protected, the tool doesn't deny you to continue protecting players as it would with every other team. I can then protect every single Vegas skater and goalie. In addition, Las Vegas does not appear in the header of team logos. And when drafting your team, the header above the team logos says only 30 players are allowed to be drafted instead of 31. In short, it seems as though the Vegas component hasn't been added to the system. [Edit: other things related to this are the "Vegas Golden Knights" in capitalized letters slapped above the roster you've drafted, and the salary cap being set at $75M]

There are also a number of 2018 UFAs who somehow made their way into the tool, but I'm sure that doesn't matter as team lists will be updated a number of times before 2021.

Sujet: (TOR / VAN) - Carcone for Leivo
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>drewjenks</b></div><div><strong>"Carcone was a good AHL player but had no NHL potential and took up space from Utica Comets rookies".</strong>

Please explain how you <strong>know</strong> that a 22 year old with 17 points in 20 AHL games has <strong>no NHL potential ?</strong>

Especially since he has drastically out-played: <strong>Jonah Gadjovich, Kole Lind, Brendan Gaunce, Jonathan Dahlén and Petrus Palmu</strong> this year...</div></div>

Gladly

First of all, Dahlen has been immense for Utica and in no ways has been outplayed by someone who’s been in the AHL for quite a few years.

It is also unfair to state the claim that Carcone outplays the rookies. They’re rookies for a reason. Michael Carcone is 22 years old and has several years of professional experience over these guys, so it’s quite obvious he gets more playing time and produces more.

As for his potential, perhaps a more articulate way to say what I meant was he had no future in Vancouver. Horvat, Boeser, Pettersson, Goldobin, Baertschi, Gaudette, Virtanen are 7 building blocks of the future currently on the roster. Eriksson, Beagle, Sutter, Roussel are veterans locked up on multi-year contracts. Dahlen is a lock to be with the team soon, and then many other prospects have a lot of NHL potential including Kole Lind, Jonah Gadjovich, Petrus Palmu, Lukas Jasek, etcetera. Please tell me where Carcone fits in here?

PS: Brendan Gaunce is worth absolutely nothing, not sure why he’s even mentioned

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KSIxSKULLS</b></div><div>Benning waives Leipsic and loses him for nothing. Then trades a 22 YO PPG player in the AHL for a guy worse than Leipsic... interesting GMing</div></div>

Brendan Leipsic had his chance in Vancouver and didn’t seize it. I personally liked him, but his defensive faults and inability to be a difference maker cost him his NHL spot this season. We acquired him from Vegas for Phillip Holm who isn’t even in North America anymore. Carcone was a good AHL player but had no NHL potential and took up space from Utica Comets rookies, including Jonah Gadjovich and Petrus Palmu. Leivo has a chance to prove himself in the NHL and will be the next experiment the organization tries out. We lose absolutely nothing and give a player with some potential a chance to prove himself and show what he’s got.

Interesting GMing indeed
