I don’t know whether this makes him a good gm or not but Billy Guerin has balls of steel and I love it

Wow, that's a lot for Nurse. In my opinion he should get something closer to a 6 or 7 mil AAV. Probably influenced by the Jones and Werenski signings, though.


Jones' contract affected so many teams
Jones' contract made Werenski get 9.5M
With Werenski getting 9.5M, Fox is going to get 10M+
McAvoy is going to get around that amount too once his contract is over

You forgot that McAvoy plays on the Bruins so he’s actually gonna sign for like 6.75mil on an 8 year deal

To Dallas: Kessel 50% retained

To Houston: Koskinen, 2022 EDM and DAL 2nd round picks

To Edmonton: Dobby

In summary Dallas gets Kessel half retained for Dobby and a 2022 2nd, then flips Dobby for Koskinen and a 2022 2nd to Edmonton. Sounds good to you?


Edmonton getting a starter, saving cap, and dumping Koskinen for the cost of a 2nd is music to my ears.

When the offseason started I didnt think Tarasenko would draw huge interest due to his injury history. I thought maybe a team or two would inquire

Now theres a bidding war for him

Good luck to whoever gets him

True😂
And Fox plays on the Rangers so Drury will pay him 12M

It's the right move, but it's still very sad to see such a legend like Lowry go. He's been the face of the franchise for so long. I'll miss him.

That was absolutely insane, performances like that are why you watch the Olympics. Amazing race, not every day you see a world record shattered by 0.76 seconds, especially in a race that short.

Absolutely nuts. He broke the record from a year ago and then broke it again, this time is OVER A SECOND faster than the last one. That's mind blowing.

Not just that, but the fact that all of the top3 had all time top4 times, and Dos Santos who was third was only 0.02 seconds from the previous world record.

That was probably the highest level competition ever run in the history of running.
