Now that the calamity of another Pens' Cup has occurred, everyone can move on to the business of getting to June 2017. The Rangers, obviously, have a lot of work to do to get back to being a contender. Word is the salary cap may actually shrink, which puts several teams, including NYR, CHI, and PIT in crunches. Should be an interesting couple of months!

Islanders, Nashville, Tampa Bay, Montreal...among the many with interest in Andrew Ladd. When Stamkos decision is made the next wave hits.

Blue Jackets have agreed to terms with D Seth Jones on a six-year, $32.4M extension ($5.4M AAV).
you're not putting this in perspective.
Jones' contract covers a bunch of team controlled years where he would've made a lot less than he's $5.4AAV.
Girardi and Staal are vets who were on UFA contracts.
Apples/Oranges
Except the Apples compared to the Oranges here had the Rangers doing "Bridge deals" during those cost controlled years and it ended up costing them more for these guys in the long run..
What're you doing awake? Isn't it like 10:00 in Colorado?

I wouldn't touch Stamkos for anything over 8 million. Too risky given his history with blood clots.

He'll get over 10M I bet. I'm leery too, but someone won't be.
I agree. I think whichever teams don't get Stamkos will be interested in Nash as a consolation prize.
1 for 1 trade
@FriedgeHNIC
It is a straight one-for-one deal. Hall for Larsson.
Off the bat...What a horrible trade for Edmonton IMO. 24 year old winger coming off a 65 point, 26 goal season.
Maybe they know they can't pay Hall in 2 years when he's a free agent and would rather control Larsson for the next 5 years in return?
@RealKyper
Talk of @Canadiens moving PK as early as today. Stay tuned. @Sportsnet.
FUCK. State income tax plays a factor yet again.
Anybody want Rick Nash now??

I was thinking PA and Vanek but to my surprise it sounds like other teams still may want Vanek. I expected his suitors to be so bad he would have to suck it up and play in brooklyn after he complained about the move when he left

I could see Nash intriguing any team that struck out on Stamkos. Detroit, Toronto, Anaheim...
That is, if they have the cap room
of competitive advantage, but this just flies in the face of the idea of an level playing field / equality of opportunity.
Their D is hurting.
Maybe the Canadiens can flip them She Weber for Pastrnak.
they have a lot of cap room I believe.
I don't understand how all this works in the NHL but after yesterdays kick to the nuts, please make this be true.
All this after allegedly turning down a Trouba for Ericsson trade at the deadline, and Ericsson is now UFA.

Hall has 4-years left on his contract.
ouch. Sadly, I agree.
After Marchand, Krug is my most hated Bruin. Such a d-bag.
what about him? trade for him? He's young and very good.
I'd love him on my team's 2nd line.
