Russell probably wants more than one year...Oilers can't do it unless they move some guys

Hope we can sign Stone for 3 years 11 million, Kulikov 2 years 6 million (hope to get him on the cheap after a injury plagued season).

Gio - Hamiltion
Brodie - Stone
Kulikov - Andersson

Aren't we trying to stay away from $3 million/year bottom pairing defensemen?

They have the space to sign him. They won't be looking to pay him much more than 3.5 though.

Wife's family is from here, so this is where he wants to be supposedly. Makes it easier on her.
Yup. Just had twins a few month ago, too. I know she wants to be near her family....

I think it all depends on what we pay our #4. If the Flames bring in a guy making Wideman money $5.25M then the bottom pair better be cheap. If they sign Stone for $3.75M then I think they would have the space to pay the number 5 guy north of $3M

So it sounds like maybe Chicago will not protect TVR, but Vegas then has to trade them for Marcus Kruger.

Why is Stone taking a paycut to play here again? I think there is some wishful thinking in this thread

His wife is from here, and he was trying to buy a house here for off-seasons and retirement even before the trade.

He got his $4M after a solid 36pt season. He did not have as near a good season this year

If I was VGK I'd say no.

I think this is a bluff. They have 3 D on NMC so the only way they could protect TVR is if they went 4-4-1. They'd have to expose Panik. I think they're trying to get VGK to take their junk in exchange for doing what they are already planning on doing (Exposing TVR).

Stone could easily get over 4 on the UFA market

Hawks could trade TVR before the draft

"The other deal involves Calgary. The Flames send Troy Brouwer back to Washington, which helps off-set Ovechkin’s salary. Calgary also gives up the rights to draft pick Adam Fox, currently at Harvard, plus a first-rounder in 2018.
Calgary’s forward corps gets a nice boost from Ovechkin, while Washington gets a little more financial wiggle room to re-sign T.J. Oshie and others."

Lol that is gold. Because we all know that Washington wouldn't want ANYONE else on the Flames roster + Rights to Fox + 2018 First.

Treliving better get a lifetime contract if he made that trade.
