On one hand I'm sarcastic, rude, and lead a lonely boring life. On the other, I have kind eyes, can make waffles from scratch, and I'm a great dancer.

@EricEngels Gally going to the bench, and Anderson standing still in theD zone instead of taking a man. It's a young team and they're going to make mistakes, but so far it's the vets that are having the most issues. It's early, but yeesh...

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@AdamWylde I agreed with your take a week or two ago that there was no reason for him to make anymore that he was. Could be worse, but not sure what he's getting a raise for, cap isn't going up THAT much.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@Must18162504 @HadiK_Scouting Begun? No. People have been calling out his lack of game awareness and poor decision making for two years.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@talk_canadiens @GenoManager Is this sarcasm? He hasn't been employed by the Habs for ages.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@Steve_Dangle Not sure it does much to help bring Willy's number down.

RFA vs UFA, 4 years vs 8 years (assuming Nylander sticks to 8). Debrincat coming off a much worse season as well, albeit with good ones under his belt.

@intell911 @NHLNetwork @TheFourthPeriod @NickGismondi Because he can just walk next summer. If he's not part of the future fine, but they'd better not lose him for nothing.

What you're suggesting is exactly what Calgary decided to do with Gaudreau, and it burned them hard.

@ryanmacd86 @ByronMBader I'm not sure they can get a high potential star/superstar in the next draft or two. They couldn't do it the last two years and I don't think they'll be picking as high going forward. But you never know, sometimes there's a Hutson etc.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@Byron_D11 Lol, you can go back to last year's tweets from reporters on heights and weights at development camp, he didn't weigh in at 158. Keep beating the drum all you want though.

@Byron_D11

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@Byron_D11 @Suzy4Selke He was 147 at the draft

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@Byron_D11 @shiyunwang89 People mature at different rates. If he is still getting taller I wouldn't worry too much about his weight. Not saying he's going to be a fridge (would destroy his game if he was anyways), but he will keep filling out.

@_justinparrott @TheLaxedd @LetsTalkHockey9 @_marlanderthews Ya, I'm not suggesting it's a disaster by any means. I just think there is a trade or two coming to make it all work.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@_justinparrott @TheLaxedd @LetsTalkHockey9 @_marlanderthews IR doesn't provide cap relief, just a roster spot. And everytime you want to use an emergency call-up you have to play a game short of 12F-6D-2G. Two players go down and you're really in the shit. Teams don't roll 20 player rosters for a reason.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@_justinparrott @TheLaxedd @LetsTalkHockey9 @_marlanderthews The problem is that's with 0 scratches. The second someone gets injured they're screwed. They've got to spread someone's current salary over multiple players. There are definitely trades coming.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@Playkniesly @TheLaxedd @_marlanderthews @LetsTalkHockey9 I highly doubt Sammy signs for 2.3, and even so they haven't finished filling out the roster. 2.3mil to sign Sammy and another player or two.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@_justinparrott @TheLaxedd @LetsTalkHockey9 @_marlanderthews Sammy would be a fool to sign for that little, and they would still need more cap space to fill out the rest of the roster.

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@RyanRT79 @KitGloomy @Banx_Leaf They have to actually go to arbitration with someone for it to open up though. I guess Sammy?

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@MtlfanSakic Are there any negatives to having to use LTIR in the off-season?

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@BrayTweeting Morgan Rielly
Filip Forsberg

[Emjewel Mantique @EmmRitter]

@Takhar77 @thelifeofalvo @LaCount12 @FriedgeHNIC It makes them cap compliant with a 20 player roster and no goalie lol. They've got trades to make.
