Sweet baby Jesus, the Kings just gave Ilya Kovalchuk 3 years and 6.25 AAV.
I know they need scoring, but that's just nuts. Talk about parlaying the past and a meaningless Olympic MVP into 18+ million dollars. Wow. |

Sounds like the Flyers are bringing back James Van Riemsdyk @ 5 years 35 million

I think Tavares goes to SJ. Just guessing.

Tavares to Toronto. Glad he is out of the division but goes to one annoying fan base.

Can he play defense? Because they still haven't addressed that.

Well the Blues went into FA desperately needing a Top 6 center and a Top 6 winger.
They walk away with more 3rd liners in Perron and Bozak. So for another year, this roster is Schwartz - Schenn - Tarasenko and 15 bottom 6 guys looking for minutes. FML |

Tavares, growing up, was once one of us. For him to make this call to chase his "childhood dreams" and come home is something Leafs fans have been waiting for for decades. Gretzky was almost a Leaf in his 50's, Coffey tried to be a Leaf, Lindros was a Leaf after his 20th concussion. Stamkos was courted by the Leafs 2 years ago after the Leafs finished last and just drafted Auston Matthews. The list goes on and on. For Tavares to make this decision, while in his prime, has caused a massive orgasm for all of Leafs Nation. (I'm still getting some residual spasms in my left calf as a result). |

You got Bozak at 5M per, so wouldn't that indicate that he's your 2C? The Leafs 2C only makes 925,000 this year.
