cap floor here i come.

kyle said in the PM to post if i liked it, so he should be around to confirm sometime soon.

[armandtanzarian]

Confirmed. Losing some offense but gaining some periphs.

[Robin Hood]

wow.

[MSP4LYFE]

Great deal Kyle, this deal isn't even close if Tim Thomas does in fact forgo next season.

you realize this is exactly what i want to happen right?

[armandtanzarian]

Well Anton and i both broke it down. The pros and cons were give and take. With his plan Thomas holds amazing value. Being able to legitimately dress a 5 mil cap hit player on a team looking to do a fast rebuild is an asset in this league. I had a lot of interest in Thomas for that very reason.

[anton]

only player more valuable to me than thomas in this case would've been gomez

I'm sure that you do, but it doesn't change anything that I said.

[armandtanzarian]

Nah, Gomez will be playing and giving you stats. You want Redden? or Yashin? haha. Are those clowns still getting paid?

[MSP4LYFE]

Gomez would find a way to fuck it up.

[MSP4LYFE]

Nah, Gomez will be playing and giving you stats.

Gomez will play, I wouldn't make any further assumptions after that.

60 goal season

[Robin Hood]

I like this trade for Anton - THOMAS TO THE LEAFS!

[armandtanzarian]

With Thomas, I wouldnt fuckin doubt it. All i know is that he will never be in a Boston Bruins jersey again.

[anton]

thomas could never start another game for all i care

[The BBKL Insider]

Straight murder for kyle

[armandtanzarian]

He won't play this year. He is a man of his word. See White-house stunt, the one he had been telling his teammates about all season long and not one believed he would actually do it.

[anton]

i fail to see how a deal that's essentially robidas for gonchar, with a bunch of odd gp and salary pieces added can be "straight murder" for anyone.

[armandtanzarian]

I dont think anyone actually looked at the numbers.

[Nick]

seems like a solid deal to me, no damage done to any body parts.
