I believe The Deep referred to the black box when he was talking about the laser holes on the side of the plane, saying he hadnt been able to find it yet with the implicaiton being that he would keep looking.
Habs dont really have money left to get Marner and even if they do, theyd have to be extremely careful with all their young guns (mete, kotka and even domi) coming due in the next 2 years. I wouldnt be surprised to see Carolina let an offer sheet fly next summer already.
Kerfoot to 4 years at 3.5 mil and Ceci to 1 year at 4.5 mil. When the Leafs trim down their roster to 20 players and use LTIR for Horton it leaves them with a little north of 11 mil to sign marner. A note on Ceci is that there was no signing bonus at all so its likely he wont be a target to...
Easy match for Carolina. Going a bit more into detail theres $21 mil in signing bonus over the first year, that would be the hard thing for them to match as they are not a very rich team.
It is a lot easier this league than synthesis was.
Of the 4 I didnt do, within 6-8 hours i could have 3 more done. I would just need to figure out endgame grinds.
Carolina is in the Metro and the Leafs in the Atlantic. Only way they compete for a playoff spot is for a wild card and I dont think at this time theres any reason to think the Leafs would drop back. All in all, a 1st round pick is a great pick up to do another team a solid.
Not sure which playoffs you were watching if you think Andersen didnt have a good series. He put up a .922 and was arguably the better goaltender in the series with Rask.
