Thank you for your efforts to give everyone a place to land Jeff! I appreciate your sensitivity to Paul's legacy and everyone over at Kukla's Korner. I wish you the best and look forward to lurking here (and at Kukla's Korner as long as it is standing)!

It's a new age in terms of salaries for sure. I do think Celebrini will be worth it in the long-run. Bedard and Byram may be a different story for the Hawks.

TreKronor · Jul 29, 2:37 PM ET

Crazy money here and for Bedard. And these guys are RFAs. This is starting to look like one of those, "just because you can spend that much doesn't mean you should spend that much"

I expect NHL teams to be back up against the CAP pretty soon. Interesting times, though.

Appreciate the effort Jeff. Paul was my "Go To" for hockey info. I have book marked your site and look forward to reading along with some level of shenanigans! Rumbear.

It's going to be interesting nonetheless.

on ‘Think extremely highly of him’: Hyman on what Babcock did for his career

NHLJeffKK · ↳ reply · Jul 28, 1:02 PM ET

Agreed. It very much seems like guys either love or hate him, and it's not about them appreciating different things about him or not, it's about how Babcock chose to treat those individual players based on how he felt about them. Hopefully most of the Oilers can get on his good side...would hate for…

TreKronor · Jul 28, 8:55 AM ET

The thing with Babs is, players either respect him or hate him. And most of that probably comes down to how Babs decided to treat individual players from the moment he met them. Some of it is fair, some isn't.

Thanks so much. I appreciate it. Trying to do PK's memory justice.

I'm going to try to update my mind to start coming to this site as well. Looking at the home page, Jeff you've done an excellent job posting despite it being the offseason; I commend you!

At least the Red Wing/Blackhawks rivalry isn’t what it used to be. I really like watching Kane play.

on SY out as GM, Red Wings announce leadership transition

NHLJeffKK · Jul 15, 10:38 AM ET

As a non-Wings fan, I also didn't see it coming. Could see that it needed to happen, but it definitely seemed like it would only happen if it was Yzerman's decision. I wonder if things just got bad enough where he got sick of it or realized that he wasn't the right fit. Obviously, there's the Larkin…

on SY out as GM, Red Wings announce leadership transition

Wingsker · Jul 15, 9:51 AM ET

Didn't see this move as imminent by any means. I wonder if this is a hail mary to keep Larkin or find a new GM who will ultimately be more aggressive in the long run, but also find the best deal to move Larkin out. They shouldn't settle regardless.

Thanks for creating this Jeff. I checked out your movie last night. It was a fun watch. Is there a sequel in the works?
