Thread: Carolina Hurricanes signed Chase Priskie (2 Years / $925,000 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Dontcha wonder who said "No"?</div></div>

It was me. Prisky is a dbag and a major reason why I hate drafting college players. I honestly hope he’s a life time ahl player.... also left Washington to go to Carolina who has better defensive depth

Kid has zero balls. Was afraid he couldn’t beat out sieg or djoo for a roster spot next year.

No. Ovechkin is the best goal scorer ever imo

Thread: If the leafs didnt overpay

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BrandonDubinskyGOAT</b></div><div>I agree, Backstrom is better than Staal but mainly because he is more consistent. The Backstrom Tavares debate is interesting, because I believe Backstrom is a better pure playmaker but Tavares is better at driving his line and generating possession. Tavares has had players like Moulson and Lee no his line whereas Backstrom has had Ovechkin and Oshie for many years. So in the end I do think Tavares is a little bit better than Backstrom as an overall player. It’s true that Nicklas Backstrom is underrated, do you think he is better than Joe Thornton and Adam Oates?</div></div>

Thornton is the man hard to say over him

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>klondikebar</b></div><div>He left the caps to go to a team that didn’t lose round 1 in last years playoffs</div></div>

For a team that hasn’t won the cup in over a decade? Solid.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BrandonDubinskyGOAT</b></div><div>Agree. Would you say either of them are better than Nicklas Backstrom or Claude Giroux?</div></div>

Backstrom imo is the most underrated player in the nhl. He literally scored 7 less points than Tavares the last 3 seasons. But people would say Tavares is a lot better than him. Backstrom is much better than Staal Giroux is a better wing than center again imo

Thread: Let Holtby Walk

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RVACapsFan</b></div><div>I mean, if we offered Backstrom for Tavares straight up, Toronto would laugh in our face.</div></div>

If Toronto offer is Tavares for backstrom we would laugh at them. In the last 3 years Tavares has 7 more points. That’s slightly more than 2 more points a season. Also Tavares makes 11 million for a long time

Long story short backstrom could easily get way more than that offer. His first deal was a steal. But to each his own

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RVACapsFan</b></div><div>Tavares is a better player than Backstrom and was five years younger when he signed his deal. I don’t think Backstrom would get anywhere close to 10M AAV on the open market.</div></div>

tavares is better? look at their stats the last 3 seasons and get back to me on who's better. and that hardly matter again bc backstrom will be a ufa and can sign anywhere for 3 years for the same money he can sign in dc for in 5 years...

backstrom literally get no respect at all its terrible.

Possibly. I would honestly need to think. Unfortunately shutdown Dmen don’t get the respect they deserve</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RVACapsFan</b></div><div>Pavelski just got 7M AAV for three years for a loose comp. I think a fair deal for Nick would be 6x7.5M. That contract wouldnt be great in the final year or two but it keeps the cap hit lower during the last few years of our window.</div></div>

You also have to consider that backstrom as a ufa would get 10million easily. Look what Tavares got. Doesn’t have to be a lengthy contract but he’s an elite center. 8.5m is fair and not a disrespectful offer

Thread: If the leafs didnt overpay

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BrandonDubinskyGOAT</b></div><div>I agree, Jagr was so quick, elusive and tricky. Although to be fair he left the KHL when he was 36, so past his prime. He had already won everything by that point, but no one thought he could come back and keep breaking records. He’s still play in the Czech League I think. Absolutely incredible.

How would you rate Zdeno Chara? Is he a top 5 all time defenseman?</div></div>

He’s very good but I wouldn’t go top 5 all time.

Lindstrom is #1 for me. I personally like Larry Murphy over chara

scott niedermayer Paul Coffey. Ray bourque not including guys like Orr who i didn’t see play. Denis potvin

Thread: If the leafs didnt overpay

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BrandonDubinskyGOAT</b></div><div>I agree, Geno in terms of raw talent is probably the closest there is to Sid and Ovie. Who would you say is better between Kane and Jagr?</div></div>

Jagr is easily a top 5 player all time. He left for the khl in his prime. He was the nhl mvp when he left. He’s better than Crosby imo. Bold but I stand by it. But imo lindstrom is generational

Imo people want the next Crosby Ovechkin so badly we are considering guys like Matthews to be generational and glorifying their achievements. But jagr was unreal. I honestly don’t think I’ve watched a better hockey player. When jagr was on he was unstoppable

malkin is Russian .....they are so frustrating bc they are hot and cold......we have a malkin type in dc named kuzy..... I wouldn't be surprised to see malkin break 100 points next year. "it be like that sometimes"

im a huge fan of Kane. he has amazing stats 3 cup....but im going to say hes an elite franchise player. generational imo would be malkin crosby esp ovechkin.....mcdavid now days.. guys that you maybe never see that talented ever again. I watched crosby and ovechkin in their prime and their isnt a player today thats even close to them in talent..... malkin imo falls into that category

Thread: If the leafs didnt overpay

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BrandonDubinskyGOAT</b></div><div>What Malkin did at 22 is relevant to the Matthews contract talk. Malkin was far better than Matthews at this age yet only got paid 900k more. It tells you how overpaid the young players are in today’s game.

Also, I’m talking about the last 5 reasons, so Malkin is a top 3 center.

I don’t think Couturier is a better 2 way center than Barkov and O’Reilly. Let alone Toews, Bergeron and Datsyuk.</div></div>

Malkin vs Matthews
Generational vs franchise

Matthews
212 games 111g 205 points (.97ppg) (.52gpg)

Malkin
242gamee. 115g 304 points (1.26ppg) (.48gpg)
Malkin won art ross and conn in year 3

Yes lead the nhl in points and won the conn while winning the cup.

Matthews hasn’t been out of the 1st round hahaha
