And then they give Blake Comeau 1.5 mil for a year... Yay cap!

Flames trade for Dennis Wideman ,.. and promptly sign him to a 5 year 5.2 AAV deal? Sounds about par for the course in that shit show.

Flames get Wideman sign him to a crazy 5.25 per for 5 years. Capitals get Jordan Hendry and a 5th round pick in 2013.

Also Flames announce they've signed Comeau to 1.5. Maybe Bouwmeester is on his way out.

[Lee]

On the plus side... or maybe negative for me.. they didn't have to give up Sven Baertschi...

As a Jordan Henry owner, I am proud. For him to be in the same talks of the trade as the main piece going back to WSH as Wideman is to CGY.

Wideman was a UFA.. they traded for his rights and then signed him... It's like being the proud owner of the conditional 7th round pick that we got for Gustavsson...

[Nick]

That all adds up to a healthy Mike Green

[Tony]

that 5.2mil definitely helps my cap situation

1) I'm fully aware
2) I'd still rather Henry >>> 7th and Wideman >>>>>>> Gusto, so I still have something to be happy about. It's proportional

[kyuss]

i like it for washington, lol

Or... Dennis Wideman just isn't very good, and they had no intention of resigning him in the first place.

P.S. I'm sure Mike Green is healthy anyway.

[inferno31]

Wideman also gets a full NMC. Of course he does..

What a joke..

[KapG]

54 mill lol....


I'll be praying that number falls by the time the new CBA is announced.

[Lee]

7 roster slots to make up 14 mil to meet the floor for me.

[KapG]

I may have over exaggerated earlier before. Once my UFA/RFAs sign their new contracts I should be between 52-53.


Is that number there Lee taking into consideration new contracts?

[Lee]

No, i have 40 committed to 16 roster players and Savard on IR.

[Lee]

Have Dougie, Sven and Huberdeau all on my bench for cap reasons but all 3 could stick in the NHL this year.
