Pierre Dorion is smarter than I thought.

Probably, they’re gonna sign him with 41 games remaining. Accrue cap space and allow him to come back next season.

We don’t know when or how. Elliotte has just reported that he did violate the gambling rule, and that he will be suspended 41 games after he’s signed.

Isn't he only eligible to sign until December 1st?

You’re right, with that in mind, I’d expect a late-November league minimum contract.

Forgot all about qualifying offers. He’ll probably sign that ASAP.

I don't think he can start serving the suspension until he is signed.

I'm looking in to that now.

Dont know about the gambling thing, but I hardly think its a smart move to let one of your top 8 forwards sit at home, rather than pay him, especially since you found the monies for Tarasenko. (Although players who are suspended still count against the cap, and his suspension only starts after hes signed)

Add that to letting your young guys know what you think about them but putting them on waivers, (and while I agreed with the move by OTT, watching DeBrincat tearing it up).

I just cant see many of Dorion's moves as smart

Praising Dorion for doing the expectation, not signing a player who'll be suspended for half the season to not over league min, is kinda funny to me.

For me, the fact is he suspended for betting before evander kane its more funny (I believe that evander got away with it, its mean pinto more dumb than kane).

It’s just a reminder that however smart we as fans think we are. The GMs regardless of dumb we think they may be. Always know more than the fans and the insiders. It’s also telling that this didn’t leak out. Is for all the time people were bashing Dorian for not having a plan he knew this. And was waiting for this to get settled first.

Every time I look at this roster related to the amount of cap space they have, I giggle.

Yeah. Granted, I think it falls under the category of crashing airplanes and autonomous cars - do you blame an autonomous cars if they can't avoid a plane that crashes into them? No. Nor do you assume a player is going to be suspended for half a season without knowledge of his wrongdoings.

Until game 42 when they still can’t sign him and 31 teams gain even more leverage than they had right now lol

He is? That's stupid. NHL disasterclass. If you're gonna give a stupid suspension, at least enforce it correctly.
