sign vanek =/= cup

trade for spezza, allen #1

win cup

12m what?

is that league max?

I do not think this is true haha.

Like jbell said earlier, it is their initial asking price each. They won't get it of course, but could very well wind up with $10M a piece. Cap is going up constantly, and this may become the new norm for superstars

or for guys that dont want to keep winning the cup

i dont get it.

If they want a better chance at more cups they will have to take less then 10m.

I agree, I do not think 12 will be close. 10 MAY happen.

This could also be a strategy to force other teams to overpay on free agents, thus making Chicago more competitive.

I wonder if they are seeking matching contracts.

My sources just confirmed: lock out 2018

Leafs remain interested in re-signing Mason Raymond, but several teams have made contact. 19 goals last year greatly enhanced his status.

Winnipeg Jets, Chicago Blackhawks among many teams to have reached out to Stastny camp

Raymond isn't bad, if they keep him it will help their rebuild a lot imo
