Kempe Contract Watch Thread

[hokiecat]

I did not mean to imply that they did. I was just saying sign a dang deal already, and that 10.5 and 11m is a reasonable offer per what Necas just signed for.

The Mayor says a deal is done, just need to work out details/structure etc. Pagnotta is saying nothing offered. Neither of these clowns know any more than we do. I would not put much stock into what either of them say.

The Mayor is full of sh*t. Mayor is one rung higher on the ladder than an E5 rumor.

I don't believe anything that clown show writes any more.

Edit: don't discount this gem either.

The Mayor is full sh*t…

He is often just a mouthpiece for the front office.

it’s funny that people still think these established insiders are making stuff up. Those days are long gone. These guys are fed information for strategic purposes.

When the Mayor gives out info he’s generally being fed that info by someone in the Kings front office or someone connected to the Kings organization. It’s really that simple.

When someone like Pagnotta gives out info he’s generally getting it from an agent or someone aligned with the player’s interests. It’s really that simple. Now it does get a little more complicated with a national rumor monger like Pagnotta because a team can use him to launder info as well because he has influence and reach.

So take all these leaks with a grain of salt and understand the info isn’t made up. It’s weaponized.

Think about what the Mayor is leaking from a 15K foot view. He’s conveying the message “don’t worry. The Kings front office has got this covered. It’s almost done. Trust these guys. They’re really competent.” That’s his role. That’s why he gets the access he does.

Hm, I do not recall seeing anywhere in this thread where someone stated that these guys "make stuff" up. Yep, they are fed misinfo, has been that way for a while. Seems that the Mayor's reporting to a big dive when Dean left the org.

It's either 12-12.5 x 8 or a trade...it's not rocket science at this point

Potential trade partners?

Could see DET / MON / BUF / CHI all interested.

With Holland in charge it would more likely be Kempe straight up for 48 years old Bryan Berard…
