Holland should have bailed when Lidstrom did.

The crappy part is, the team is just good enough that they won't even be able to tank for a top 10 draft pick.

More like Folin, and he isn't willing to pay out the nose like some teams are for guys who aren't worth it.

I hope not, if it is not Dumba playing, the Wild will have some serious issues.

If the number (2014-15 goals by Vanek) is 40, I'll take the under.

Congrats to the Wild on the Vanek signing. Yes, he had some struggles with MTL and there's no guarantee of future results. Still, the upside potential is there.

But the hometown discount might just be the most important part of the deal. Clearly it helps with this year's tighter-than-expected cap, giving the Wild the opportunity to pursue additional talent without going over budget. The current rules of engagement regularly dictate that depth be sacrificed in order to add/keep high end talent. Less need to sacrifice is self-evidently a good thing.

Going forward, this gives management a real financial incentive to add more players with MN connections. At the same time, said players may be more amenable to discount deals with Vanek and others setting the precedent. Just a Wild guess, but adding local players may be of some interest in the Twin Cities market.;)

They need the money to sign Niederreiter, Brodin, Granlund, Haula, Fontaine, Coyle....All are huge parts of the future, and all are on entry level contracts that are coming up in the next 2 years, including Nino and Fontaine needing a contract now.
 
Re: 2014 Stanley Cup Finals - I'm so Anze about how Quick Hank is, I'm Nashing my tee

And has been pointed out before, the Wild have the money to sign them. Vanek didnt put them at the cap. Wild Payroll

You act like Fontaine and Nino are gonna get max deals...they are young RFAs neither of which made a million last year the Wild can give them hefty raises and still have room. Hell you forgot Kuemper, and they have money for him as well.

I'm not worried about this year. They have money this year. The problem is 3 years from now, when they have added more FA, and still have several very big contracts on the books. All of the prospects will need a new contract by then, not just 3 of them. They're ok now, and I think they are smart enough to know whats coming. I'm glad they didn't do anything stupid yesterday. See: Capitols and Oilers.

RJ tells the Buffalo News that he'll beat throat cancer and be back in the booth.

Good luck and prayers for you Rick.

“I would like to stress I have every intention of coming back,” said Jeanneret. “I have probably three months ahead of me that aren’t going to be fun. I know they aren’t going to be.”

Sharks took a day off of stupidity to sign John Scott. I hate this team.
