Hey, does anyone know how I can get a job that will let me spend $1 million of my employer’s money to do a favour for my buddy who works for a competitor?

No way Kostin goes back to Edmonton. They traded him because he wanted more than they could afford to pay a bottom-6 guy, and reportedly he has offers of higher money from the KHL too.

A lot of formerly highly rated prospects not getting QO's this year it seems.

Flames probably qualified their guys because they will end up with bigger roles on the Wranglers this season, at the least.

Not signing Kostin to a QO doesn’t mean he’s not getting a contract tomorrow from Detroit, just means it’s probably different terms and salary from the QO.

Geekie and Sprong not qualified in Seattle.
They are intriguing options.

Comtois, Foote, sprong, Fischer, Kostin, Steel....there's a few decent options.

I do like Geekie, he's a useful 6'3" C, and he had a real upward-looking trajectory when he was with Carolina. He hasn't looked as promising with Seattle. Still not the greatest skater but he's serviceable, if not spectacular.

Sprong must be a grade A arsehole or something, the way he bounces around.

Flames should definitely look hard at Kostin.

Agreed, for the right price he can be an effective player. He can more than hold his own in a fight as well. He actually got the better of Dennis Gilbert years ago. Not a heavyweight (not many left in the league anyways), but a solid physical player.

Omsk, which is in Siberia, is apparently preferable to Edmonton.

Mike McLeod please, also Poolparty.

Those two would be epic additions.

Poolparty comes back mid season and punks the Oil.

How did it cost his owner $1M? He was acquired and then not qualified. Where's the cost?

The Yamamoto buyout is going to cost the Wings just over $1 million.
