TJ better keep an eye on his jockstrap as BriseBois is very likely to pour Tabasco sauce on that cup to ensure he gets a good on-ice return for that "ohhhh-ver-pay!"

Wait, you don't auto-ignore every Habs fan on this site every year around this time? Modern problems, modern solutions.


After last season trade deadline, i agree every fan base should ignore Habs fans, as we were brutally right.

What if Tampa overpaid for Jeannot so the price for other players during the deadline skyrocket forcing other Eastern conference teams to sell the farm to acquire guys like Chychrun, Kane, McCabe, Lafferty, Schenn, and other rentals. Would be 5D chess by them

Lehkonen and Kulak too. We ended up getting way more than what most people were thinking.

NHL must've gotten new script writers for this season to get viewership up. Haven't seen this much chaos in years

I’m curious what his return would be if the Canucks do move him

I'd like at least a first round pick back. Management would look pretty foolish if they trade Miller for spare parts less than a year after signing him to an 8x7 contract

Apparently the Canucks may scratch him tomorrow due to trade reasons per Shayna Goldman. This is the reporter that first broke the Timo Meier trade return

Because look at his resume

Was never drafted

Won the Norris

Won the Messier

Played over 1000 games

And now is the shot block king at 39 years old with no signs of stopping as he's signed another year

I really wonder why Flyers are clearing contract space maybe Sanheim deal? Bring back more contracts? Taking on Cap dumps? Maybe I'm too optimistic?

Taking in cap dumps most likely. Perfect year to take back young players on over inflated contract for cheap.

They gonna end up putting a max word count on conditions:

“San Jose Receives Conditional 2024 Second-Round Pick: Should New Jersey reach the 2023 Eastern Conference Finals (and Meier plays in at least 50% of Meier's Club's Playoff games in 2023) or the 2024 Eastern Conference Finals, New Jersey will transfer its own first-round pick in 2024 NHL Draft to San Jose (top 10 protected), instead of its own second-round pick in 2024 NHL Draft. If New Jersey's first-round pick in 2024 NHL Draft is a top 10 selection, New Jersey will have the option to instead transfer its own first-round pick in 2025 NHL Draft to San Jose. Should New Jersey transfer its first-round pick in 2024 NHL Draft per the original condition (top-two above in Condition A), New Jersey will instead transfer its own first-round pick in 2025 NHL Draft should they reach the 2024 Eastern Conference Finals.”


You clearly haven’t read the Sean Monahan trade conditions

I do t wanna be mean to Vancouver fans but I don’t think JT miller has any value….he doesn’t drive play enough for 9% of the salary cap. I don’t think you can pay to offload him.

Kinda the same position my blues are in with Jordan Kyrou.

Both are good nhl-ers, neither drive 9-10% of the teams total on ice action, and then they get exposed when there isn’t cap left to sign the support they need to be productive. Atleast Miller is a center, but still. 9-10% goes to your 1C, not your 2C. And in the Blues case, just 🤦‍♂️

I feel the age of giving huge contracts to above average but not great offensive players will end, not because the comps change, but because teams just will stop paying. It is better for the clubs to literally let the players walk.

Intriguing negotiation to happen soon

The GM that just traded for you spent all its draft capital on you. Jeannot will realize he has way more leverage than any other RFA.

He'll get +20m contract IMO

Grier said last night he will make a Karlsson trade happen if Karlsson and the suitor want it.

So in other words McDavid will be ignored by Holland for the next 120 hours.

@BeterChiarelli someone needs to execute a hostile takeover of the Oilers management
