YOU ALL


GO LA.....

 

That's a dick move then. If I were Boston I'd get rid of him. That's 5mil that could go somewhere else. Aren't they still paying Savard too?

 

i believe so(Savard). Thomas is self serving apparently. Principled, perhaps.

 

Savard is still being payed but it doesn't count towards the cap because he goes on LTIR every year. Savard would not get paid if he retired.

 

Yeah I knew Savard wasn't against the cap, but he needs to make a decision.

 

Savard's hockey carreer is over. The contrACt pay he is recieving is his retirement. He will likely get it all before he retires

 

I agree. Most of the fans who know who Savard is do not have a problem with it either.

 

He can't say he's retiring because he'll forfeit the rest of his contract (but it'll still count against the team's cap) and that's a lot of $ to give up if you're an out-of-work player. His contract is up after the 2016-17 season @ $4mill per


Edit, just saw this was posted above... sorry:

 

Timmy has a No Move/No Trade that says he cannot be traded or assigned to minors before July 1, 2012. If I'm Chiarelli, I'm trying to shop him during the draft as much as possible to see what return I can get. I doubt the League would allow a trade like this to happen since they don't want a player to be sent to a cap floor team just as a salary dump.

If he can't get any return for Thomas, send him down to Providence to clear $5 mil off of the cap

Vokoun to Pens for a 7th done deal

 

Holy Shit! signed him for 2 yrs too! This means Johnson aint coming back, and pressure on Fleury to perform.

 

means Holtby is getting a full time job

 

Even more interesting is Vokouns numbers are better then fluerys in the last 5 years. Pressure to the max

 

A good move by Pittsburgh has left TO one less option

 

isn't all of this moot? He has said he is taking the year off

 

Anybody see that Thomas' Facebook page is full of his concern for an impending economic meltdown in the US soon ?

Maybe he should get traded to Doomsday Preppers

 

that show makes me literally sick to watch...
