@JasonGregor Would be super curious to know how many of these are new positions or title only promotions, or if not who are they replacing and where are they going?
@frank_seravalli I mean it's an interesting tweet with the date, but hellebuyck was draft year -1 in 2011, and even you know this win was almost entirely on him, (and a missed open net that will haunt MacKinnon for the rest of his life)
@oldmaninabowtie@KimJongBettman@frank_seravalli hellebuyck was 17 and draft year -1 in 2011. (Hughes was 11.) Neither correspond to the tweet, though hughes is close-ish.
Most importantly for the us though, 3 on 3 hockey was introduced at the NHL level 4 years later π
@nielsonTSN1260@EricMacramalla Until seeing this picture, I literally couldn't tell if Macramalla was actually going to pick you up, or it was all a bit. π
@waqaskhan18@brianlawton9@TheAthletic@EdmontonOilers Interesting though, in the article it states that several players didn't answer this directly and just instead said "no Canadian team" which is maybe why the response rate was so low? So many spoiled ballots lol
@waqaskhan18@brianlawton9@TheAthletic@EdmontonOilers Correct. There were 82 voters so each vote was worth 1.22%. All those teams listed at the bottom had 1 vote each. None of the 82 responses listed Edmonton as their top no-trade target. Not a single vote or of 82 is pretty wild considering where things were at 5-10 years ago.
@aiden_gabel @FriedgeHNIC He truly wants to play in the NHL, but he's not worth 4M a year to anyone. At 1.5 there will be takers. Guy literally is going to lose probably 4-5 million real dollars in order to do what he loves. That's fricken incredible really.
@Presidan@MouserGuru@frank_seravalli@DailyFaceoff That's not quite right Prez. All money is accounted for, even after the contract term, but anything after the term is discounted. It's in the article, but essentially let's say a mil the year after might only count as 900k, then the second year after 800k, so on and so on.
@coreythebutcher @nielsonTSN1260 Can't DM you Corey since you don't follow me, but if EST says buy a ticket, then I buys a ticket! If you can DM me with instructions let me know!
