Trying to determine things, to me, means free agency and then decide where to play. |

Either way, by not signing, he is keeping open the option of leaving. Yep. I think with all the arena uncertainty, there's more impetus to leave. And with Snow still GM, I'd really be ready to leave. But some say he likes snow. Maybe as a person, but as a GM I'm not sure what there is to like. |

Reading between the lines he is as good as gone and I can't blame him. The bigger question is if Garth can move him for assets and of what caliber.

Well that didn't work worth a shit.
Basically Staple Q&A, giving Tarares a slim to none chance of signing during the season. 65% chance he resigns at all. Hits July 1, he's a goner.

If Staple says that he is all but gone, I mentioned it above. Why WOULD he stay here? He's getting a max contract and it will be from the team he chooses, not a team whose entire future is in disarray. |

Otherwise, not moving out of a shitty arena for at least another two years after this season, plus a shitbag GM who can't put a consistent winner together, and there's just no reason for JT to resign. |

MacCagnan reminds me of Garf. Building a roster thru waiver wire transactions.

Is there a substance abuse policy in the NHL? Why does Brock always look like he's stoned out of his mind?

How about that goal by Barzal last night, granted it wasn't against many regulars but the speed... |

How about that goal by Barzal last night, granted it wasn't against many regulars but the speed... Dude that was awesome. It was as if everyone was practically standing still. That clip doesn't do it full justice. The wider angle shot showing more players and a few seconds before that clip start really tell the full story. |
