but ya, no question...bad contract given out by the caps
Yeah, that is why I put prime in quotes.
My Four Favorite teams:
RIT and anyone who is beating Canisius
Cornell and anyone who is beating Harvard

I am not afraid of terrorism, and I want the Government to stop being afraid on my behalf. I understand that it will not be possible to stop all terrorist acts. I am not afraid!!!!
Actually $22.5M. Factor in the lack of income tax in FL and it would probably take over $5M for him to stay in NY. Good move letting him walk. He's not a $5M/yr defenseman.

Rumors I'm seeing on a Rangers board also have it that Stralman's wife was not happy in NY and that, all else being equal, he might have picked TB because of that factor.

As some of us know. Unhappy wife and all that. So that makes sense if true.
I've go to think (hope) that the FO/coaching staff think McI is very close to being ready and that Skjei is close too. Maybe McI this season and Skjei in 2-3 years when Boyle is done. If so then letting Stralman walk is the right move regardless of the money. Both should be better at their respective games than Stralman is.

Man, I really hope McIlrath turns out not to be crappy, especially since they chose him over Fowler.
Are all the GMs today drunk? We just locked everyone out for the silliness and now they're all right back at it.
Classic management move.
Do stupid ****, then insist that you needn't pay the consequences for it when it comes to bite you in the *** a few years down the line. Because then it's everyone else's fault.
If you want to be aBADGER, just come along with me
BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!
At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

Seriously though - is Boyle still any good?
From the few games I have seen of McI in the AHL he is getting very close. He needs to be a bit better on his feet but his positioning it there and so is his toughness. Think Beukeboom that can skate better and with a decent shot. I am thinking the plan is for him to start out on 3rd pair and takes over for Boyle on the 2nd as the season progresses and he get more comfortable in the NHL.
As for Boyle, he's got to be an improvement over Richards on the PP. If McI is ready and Boyle plays 3rd pairing minutes and PP QB, then for the short term I am OK with it.
