When Dumbbell Nurse getting paid $9.5M, B-Orr-chard should get paid at least $1M to 1.5M more.

TSN headline. In what f***'in world would anyone be so stupid as to pay Evan Bouchard $10M+ a year???!!! Oh wait a second, maybe he's better than ######bag Nurse, so I guess that makes sense in Bumonton. Maybe 8 years $100M sounds about right.

Puts the Oilers in a rough spot, I mean his contract is up the same time as Draisaitl,



Bouchard's agent would be stupid not to ask for number 1 pairing dollars with his offensive numbers at about 8 to 8.5. Draisaitl would be nuts not to start at what is going to be the league maximum at what 16 and then give a discount to 14.


Either way the Oilers won't be able to afford both of them unless they find a taker for Hopkins and or Nurse with no retention.



I mean if the Oilers don't get to the finals, they have to make changes right, I mean their window is closing.

And coil faithful will call it a discount.

Getting paid for non McDavid-adjusted totals is hilarious.

When McD bolts to Toronto in 2 off-seasons these contracts will look atrocious.

They cheat at hockey. They cheat at taxes.

The entire Oilers franchise and its fan base should be prosecuted and imprisoned as cheats.

After a scathing report from the judge, his legal team said:

In a statement, Schreiber’s legal team, Ron Choudhury, Molly Luu and Justin Ng of Miller Thomson LLP, said they were pleased with the court proceedings to date.

That must be either the legal equivalent of the nhl won’t pay attention, or the equivalent of a legal Mavi right of way.

They are just saying that so when he signs an 8mil/yr deal they can claim he took a discount.

Hopefully it's like Nurse when they leaked $7M so $6M wouldn't seem terrible, but they're so stupid they didn't realize how it worked and went the other way and gave him $9M+.

Wouldn't be an Oilers playoff game without losers fighting at the watch party.

It’s a CHED night.

Their “sports scientists” think their stars are not playing too many minutes.
