I sure hope not. He’s essentially a LD version of Roy stats wise except he doesn’t bring the physical element. Better stick in lanes though. That Roy only got 5.5 as a RD, no way Gavi should get a raise. Just don’t know how Rob is going to fix this.
My office commute is 90 minutes roundtrip. Music most most mornings but podcasts on the way home always. So pissed off Marek got fired. Gonna ruin the 32 Thoughts Podcast too as far as I’m concerned. I really hope he does his own thing this season.
I agree but also think Gavi and his agent will expect a raise and leave without one. In reality. Roy is the better between the two and Gavi should be taking a pay cut on his next contract.
I did not think Gavi was all that good last season.
The good news is 6 million should get us a solid top 4 LD. If we keep Gavrikov, that's great. If not, get somebody as good or better.
I think that’s right. Gavrikov is a nice enough player. We know what he is. I believe he’s slightly overpaid. He’s pretty much maxed out in both ability and salary. He’s probably a $5M player. I think the Kings will find a better option for his spot for slightly more money.
Hes actually overpaid as the kings are paying for provorov too as part of the deal
Separate trades. We traded Quick, 1st, and 3rd round picks for Gavrikov and Korpisalo. We acquired retention on Provorov on a separate trade with Philly and Columbus to get rid of Cal Peterson.
Really? I hadn't heard that. His show was always very good. I need to go look up what happen. I did notice he wasn't on the show the last week or so and I found it odd.
According to The Athletic, he was leaking picks just moments before they were picked to his buddy Mark Seidel so he could prepare social media posts. Draftees are ID’d to broadcasters a minute or two before names are called so they can prep highlights and focus the camera on the kid in the crowd.

Absolutely love this move for the Blues. Hope they get both but my guess is they’ll end up with Broberg only.I was so happy to see the Blues messing with the Oilers this morning. The enemy of my enemy and all that...
Blues tender offer sheet to Edmonton's Broberg, Holloway | St. Louis Blues
ST. LOUIS – St. Louis Blues President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Doug Armstrong announced today that the Blues have tendered offer sheets to Edmonton Oilers defenseman Philip Broberg and forward Dylan Holloway. The Oilers have seven days to exercise their right of first refusal on...
The Broberg offer will hurt them for sure, will be interesting to see what Edmonton does. It would be crazy to lose him for a 2nd round pick, but at the same time it may be hard for them to fit that salary in.I was so happy to see the Blues messing with the Oilers this morning.

I here what you are saying but keep in mind the players SIGNED the deal. So they are willing to play at the offered amount....now it's up to EDM to decide where those players play next season.I still think that offer sheets are douchey, but the Oilers are douchey too, so I'll allow it, haha.
Well said.I still think that offer sheets are douchey, but the Oilers are douchey too, so I'll allow it, haha.
Yeah, possible. However, very doubtful. I am sure ownership is not going to let the GM waste assets and money just to send a message. Could be part of it, but not the prime reason. I understand that the Blues had to make another pre-trade to get "their" draft pic back in order to even be able to make the offers. So, this was a hockey move IMO, but ended up being kind of a slap in the face at the same time. Win-WIn for some.
