Goalie Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 The Fact Anaheim is on Faulks no trade list but Winnipeg isn't.. That's a sign of a good Minnesota boy. Is he ideal? No. Is he better than everyone on the team except Buff and Morrissey? Yup. The Unknown Poster and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once he's off the books, we could replace him with another back-injury prone player. Is he ready to go this year? The world wide web isn't telling me much.

Brandon Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Zero issues if we can get a solid d-man for Perreault. If you want to talk about a guy who is streaky and can go cold for long periods of time he's easily replaceable with one of our many young guys. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustamente Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 The back end this year is going to be a tough thing to watch without Buff, but the guys that suit up will get a world of game experience probably wont win to much but we will find out what we have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swing and a miss again For Friedman He said they HAD interest. From 31 Thoughts: 1. Winnipeg had interest in Ben Hutton, but had to wait until things settled before formalizing anything. Hutton had to get started, and the Kings were ready. Noeller and blue_gold_84 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_gold_84 Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Another it looks like another chip has fallen with Bolts' Brayden Point signing a 3-year bridge with a $6.75M AAV.

The$9 million salary in year 3 though means a minimum qualifying offer of just under$10 million. If TB doesn't offer that then he would become aUFA. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owners have a cap to protect themselves. The RFA was set for older players to protect themselves against the younger ones. The younger ones have gamed the system. This is player-vs-player. The owners don't care. The only costs they're incurring are the upfront, bonuses, which I'm sure will be cut down during the next CBA negotiations. Edited September 23, 2019 by JCon DR.

FrostyWinnipeg Posted September 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 (edited) The Carolina Hurricanes have traded defenceman Justin Faulk to the St. Louis Blues. The Hurricanes have also sent a 2020 fifth-round pick to St. Louis. In exchange, St. Louis is sending defenceman Joel Edmundson, forward prospect Dominik Bokk and a 2021 seventh-round pick to Carolina. https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/blues-acquire-justin-faulk-hurricanes-sign-seven-year-extension/ Edited September 24, 2019 by FrostyWinnipeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some of the owners care a fair bit about massive signing bonuses for relatively unproven players... and about having to buy out older players to afford their own RFAs... not the original plan at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
