A bunch of my buddies were out golfing today, are going out tonight and I think golfing tomorrow again. Figured I'd send them this while they were on the course.
The worst thing that could happen to twitter would be if Marner signed an offer sheet with the Islanders and the Leafs took the picks.
Would be 6 years of comparing stats w/ Tavares and endless bickering.
Already told the bosses I'd quit just to get off twitter
Friedman on Sportsnet mentions Cam Talbot potentially to the Flyers ... Flyers have cheaper goaltending like Brian Elliott ... Talbot and Hart have a history together ... Oilers need cap space to recall Sekera when he's ready.
Multiple teams I’ve spoken to are very concerned about this cap forecast. Many fear that when the NHL and NHLPA settle on an upper limit this week, it will be LESS than $82M for next season, or an increase of only slightly more than $2M.

Columbus: no 1st/2nd in 2019, no 1st/2nd/3rd in 2020, no 2nd in 2021.
And possibly no Panarin, Bobrovsky, Duchene, or Dzingle after this season.
Here's the condition of the first-round 2019 pick in the Evander Kane deal: if the Sharks re-sign Kane, it's a first; but if Kane walks into free agency, it's a second-round pick in 2019
So the Devils are signing Dmen Brett Pesce and Brenden Dillon, likely F Jonathan Marchessault and they're in on Stamkos ... and they've already added G Jacob Markstrom.
Friedman: "The Edmonton Oilers have made it clear that one of their key acquisitions here towards the playoffs is going to be a puck-moving defenseman. And here's the thing about Karlsson, for this to work, he's got to be about a $6.5 to $7 million player for the Oilers."
