I'm not entirely positive, but I don't think you can sign an extension until the last year of your contract, and then it kicks in the following year.  For example, Eichel signed his contract in October of the last year of his ELC (17-18) and the 10M cap hit didn't kick in until this season.  

Okay, so we can actually sign him to an extension this summer, but he has to play out the last season on his ELC regardless before the extension kicks in. Makes sense. Thanks for the info!

Yep, got a quick edit in to add Nico's situation to my post.  Again, not entirely positive but I think that's the rule.

Blake Coleman really is John Madden come again

I really hope Blackwood is back on Saturday. Kinkaid needs to be relegated to the damn bench. Bad year to have the worst season of your career, KK. Not gonna get Carter Hutton money at this rate.

And let's hope he comes back and is the same. If Mac isn't the real deal, we are in horrific shape at goalie moving forward lol

I was just hoping to get a mid round pick for kkb at the deadline. Never going to happen now

I wanna watch but all my stream links won't work. Might be my computer but whatever.

Severson had a nice goal down low on a one timer. Some pretty nice puck movement. Kind of don't hate the idea transitioning him to a bottom six wing lol

The power play is maddening though. The construction is pretty brutal, and I'm tired of seeing all the grinders out there mishandling pucks and losing 25 seconds of PP time because they are constantly cycling down low and fighting along the boards. Having guys like Zajac, Boyle, Zacha on the ice and the same time is just terrible.

We have a ton of offensive fodder on this team lol

We really do. And of course, the immediate construction on the third power play? Zacha / Boyle / Zajac with Palms. JFC. 

And butcher just got completely undressed defensively...he's really not good in his own zone. He's better than Severson there, but not as offensively gifted. But they are both major liabilities on their own end.

I don't understand how Hynes got a damn extension. Him and Shero must be really close. He's clearly not a NHL level coach.
