@The_Mexinadian Team doesn't make playoffs in 10 years and GM of that team does nothing but make bad trades for years and preaches be patient and that GM is going to justify 8.7MM of cap space of not playing to ownership?
Detroit Redwing fans are delusional
@OILfanincowtown He isnt worth e Owen Tippett even with a large amount of salary retention. Edmonton will probably have to attach draft picks and salary retention to get rid of him. We all saw his positioning and the amount of goals he deflected into his own net!
Nhl voting never made any sense to me. Remember, Mario once said I dont measure my accomplishments in awards voted on by other people. I measured them in wins and Stanley Cups!!
McDavid and MacKinnon fans seem upset about Hart voting.
A man once led NHL with 199 points (31 more than anyone else), 85 goals, set a record with 13 SHG and led his team to playoff for first time in 7 years with Bob Errey and Rob Brown as linemates.
And didn’t win the Hart.
@yzerman3cups@sportscryptid If he plays hardball it puts alot of pressure on a GM who hasn't made the playoffs in 7 years and will have to justify to ownership why $8.7MM of cap space not playing which is really tough when all you is not make the playoffs!!
@oilers_hub You still have to find a team that is dumb enough to take him!
I think the only way I would do it is if 50% salary retained and atleast a 1st & 2nd round pick is attached...maybe 2 1st round picks.
@dbesteck89@JimChuong Are you sure? I ask because people say the same thing about commercial real estate i. The US but I know companies that will give 30 yr fix rate debt for 1.5%-2.25% more than the 5 year fixed rate debt...and I always tell people pay extra to not worry about it!!
@tmatthewshockey Right because Larkins goal isn't to compete for Lords Stanley Cup but to help a GM who hasn't made the playoffs in the 7 years that he has been GM and is living off his name as a retired player!! Larkin sent a message that he will only accept a trade to a contender!
@axeman_44@JB78849062@rod_anderson Yeah how dare a player work his ass off to negotiate a deal where he controls his own destiny!
How dare a player agree to get paid less than market value in exchange for a contract that allows him to control his own destiny!
How dare he!!
@JB78849062@axeman_44@rod_anderson Yeah good luck explaining to ownership why $8.7MM of cap space not playing after 7 years of not making the playoffs!! Larkin has mare leverage than the delusional Detroit Redwings undrtstand...this isn't the 1990s
