Zaitsev will struggle to get a PTO when his contract is up, which is why hell be paid 750k-1 mil to play for the Bridgeport isles, I don't think hell ever play a game for the NHL team,

Edit: Lou won't be the GM next season so isles won't have to worry about it, but if he is here then that's what will happen.

Cool to see him back in the League. I liked him as a Leaf






it seems like another timashov situation. A guy who has played for lou, getting an NHL deal to play in the AHL.

Ya, it's rare to see guys coming back into the NHL at his age (28) but good for him, follow your path.

More than likely a depth guy, AHL for sure

Fast, gets in the forecheck, like's to hit, and has a sneaky accurate shot. Interesting to see if at 28 he still has the wheels. A poor mans version of Barabanov.

there are some very puzzling rankings in the Daily Faceoffs NHL goalie tandem rankings. like Allen/Montembeault above Merzlikins/Korpisalo and Gibson/Stolarz, and Talbot/Forsberg at #8

he can't be any worse than Matt Martin. I'd throw him on the 4th line.

A lot of these standings gonna be reversed anyways

Wouldnt look to hard into them

As the fact they got 3 teams with potential Jennings duos at below 17 is pretty funny.

This is not the posting you should be posting in these forums. We are all screwed now. Beter please excuse us


Respectfully, don't tell me what I can and can't do on here.
If and when you become a mod, you can do that. But until then, it is not in your place to tell me what to do or not.
