  1. it's quite remarkable, ain't it?
  2. my simple understanding of how the nhl calculates salary is that it is your active roster that matters. so even if a player is hurt, if he's not on LTIR, he still counts against the cap. since I think this is retroactive to Miro's injury, it's the total of all the games he would have played that is the free money. not sure I explained that right, anyway, afaik, for the playoffs you have to be under the cap entering the playoffs but once they start there basically is no cap. if you have a guy on your roster that was hurt and now he isn't, he can play. it'll eventually be called The Mark Stone Loophole
  3. the more I think about it the Miro to LTIR smokescreen was to leave options open but to pump fake the league on Miro's condition. also, Nill is such an awesome and magnanimous GM he wanted to save his GM a cool $8.5M. Good guy, that Jim Nill. Hope Rantanen is in the lineup tomorrow. I'm fucking stoked!
  4. my second thought before "Please don't trade Wyatt Johnston" before I feel asleep last night was, "goddamn gaslighting is a fucking problem in this country." I really don't know how we unfuck this. it's not just alternative facts anymore. it's outright lies purported as truth. it's maddening. spoiler: we didn't trade Johnston
  5. this is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY beyond mentally unstable
  6. might as well add it to the protest song list the way things are going
  7. Moose won't be out a Rolex to get #96 this time either
  8. you and Jim Nill both, apparently. Wait, Jim?....
  9. I cannot roll my eyes any further
  10. Stars are accepting bandwagon fans
  11. my last thought before I fell asleep last night was, "anyone but Wyatt." amen.
  12. buzz is there is likely another move that happened late and could be announced in the next hour or so. there is a reason the team has not officially announced the trades yet
  13. btw I super love the Rantanen/Stanky trade. I find it hilarious we didn't have to budge on the offer others gave him. guess the texas tax breaks made it enough
  14. hadn't really focused on d-men, but I cannot imagine who we're going after if they're convinced Miro can't make it for the playoffs. will be interesting to who we get, if we do
  15. maybe, but the cap is about to jump pretty substantially, so someone is going to take a chance on him
  16. nah, you mean well and don't flame, but I think your glasses are a little too rosy sometimes, though.
  17. I read your posts like 10 times before I realized you weren't saying censure. I was like, "but they did! DD is posting bullshit again!"
  18. as opposed to dying impersonally?
