Eleven

His cap hit is reasonable through 24-25, he is at a needed position, and like @Weave always says, fans tend to overvalue draft picks. Most years, if a pick is not in the top 5-10, it's pretty hit or miss. I think it's a heavy price, but I don't think it's out of this world, especially if the team trading for him can spread out the picks (2023 and 2025 or 2024 and 2026 instead of consecutive years). I'm not sure I'd want the Sabres to do it, but I don't think it's crazy.

What about Gaustad?

From what I'm reading elsewhere, the ask is two firsts and a solid prospect, so I'm not sure the price is dropping. And they have almost a month.

Leprosy.

Another thing we say every year.

Some of this is ridiculous and probably illegal. There are under-23s who legit travel for business (or vacation) and need places to stay. NYS finally fixed the car rental thing, and GOLF CARTS? Andrew Brunette is not under 21. My closest friends had children by age 23, for crying out loud. It's just insane how we are making everyone under 30 wear helmets for every freaking thing.

We were doing archery in gym class at age 8.

Every year.

Ugh I forgot about the early start and scheduled a hatchet-throwing session. Oh well.

I can't agree more. I don't have children, but it is obvious to me that we adults have completely failed the current generation of children and maybe even the zoomers. We have nerfed life too much. Kids as young as 12 used to babysit, or have paper routes, or mow lawns, etc. for pocket money. That doesn't happen anymore--too dangerous. They're not allowed to drink until age 21 (neither was my generation, but let's face it, we all got around it and that's harder now); states talk about raising the driving age to 18 or even 21; it seems like we want to protect them from every possible negative thing. And that's okay--when they are children. When they are adolescents and young adults, it changes. They've got to learn to behave responsibly when to do otherwise would have bad consequences. When my nephew turned 12, I gave him a Swiss army knife. My sister was ready to kill me. But come on, he's 12! Pretty sure Tom Sawyer was whittling well before age 12. There even used to be a Red Cross babysitting course for 12 year olds. We don't empower kids to make decisions anymore and that is harmful to their development and to societal advancement.

TBH I would keep it as is, as others are suggesting. Power never played in navy and I think it would look about as natural as a Perreault slug would.

Dave and Adam's is probably your best bet.

Si Dahlin a signé un contrat pont, c’était qu’il misait sur lui et surtout que Buffalo ne voulait pas le payer. Dahlin a gagné. Il va demander 100 millions pour 8 ans. Si Buffalo ne veut pas encore le payer, il va encore signer un contrat pont de 3 ans et 9.5 millions. Ensuite il ne jouera plus à Buffalo! Car il va demander 20 millions lorsqu’il aura son autonomie complète. For those who aren't good with other languages (I am fluent in Spanish, French, and Esperanto, so I've got this): Yes, Dahlin signed a point contract, certainly he missed Luigi what Buffalo would violate a player. Dahlin a gag joke. It goes about a hundred million miles in 8 hours. Yes, Buffalo is not violent to pay again, she goes to sing again on a point of three contracts with Ann. 9.5 million something. In their private suite, Buffalo and Carolina will demand and ill 20 million somethings, and his aura is completely autonomous.

Saskin

Fehr too.

I hope you're right--I hope that Dahlin values glory over money--but Karlsson came in at 11.5M while older. I think the price for the league's best defenseman has been set, and I do think Dahlin is the league's best defenseman now.

It's gonna be 12.

It is "labor," a congress and not a parliament, the correct units are miles and gallons, a dollar is worth 100 American cents, and Gordon Lightfoot sux. (I am kidding with only some of this.)

Damned right we don't. We're efficient with our spelling.

No words. Just sorry.

Dahlin will be 11M+. Bet on it.

It's not going to.

Not until there's a legit NHLer between the pipes. And that may or may not be UPL, Comrie, Levi, etc., but Adyms is not there yet.

I'm ok with the deal. This also is why they're not trading for Timo Meier, no matter what fantasies people might have.
