Just saw coming down the NHL wire that, Frazier Minton of the Boston Bruins has signed a seven-year, $7 million contract that's seven per for seven years. He has played one full season in the NHL and scored 17 goals. He is 21 years old and he just signed the Tage contract. Zeev Buium over the weekend signed a monster deal with Vancouver, over $9 million, which is also crazy early. This is like... Hockey fans have to get ready for the NFL model. This is the passage of time. I think teams might think that the cap is going to go up more than we expect and they're trying to just get this all done now because it's going to get crazier and crazier. This is another great example of if you're not trading, you will lose. You will not ever find a young player in free agency. Here's a 21-year-old who scored 17 goals locked up for seven years. He's good, but he's...

I mean, you're just never going to find it. He's done very little. He's his rookie season. He's 10th in the call-der. He might be very, very good, but you will just never get a young player. Which, the flip side of that is, you know, like, what's constant hell on you is going to get in his first contract. Seriously, Yarmou might want to think about this. We can all sit here and talk about how much you love. Kool-Eak, Oslin, Helen Yus. Am I missing one in there? Who's the other one? Kool-Eak. Oslin, I know. Yeah, that's the three. Okay. If all three of them become who you think they're going to be, that's massive gobs and gobs of money and maybe you're going to think, I am only going to want to pay two of the three and then I'm going to want to have one that I've drafted or developed. So, you know, young players are worth a lot because you have not yet paid them a lot and the flip side is you soon will. Yeah, they absolutely. And that's part of, I think, why I think it might have been smart to burn a year off of Consta's deal last year.

For sure. Get that done. For sure. So that you can get closer to signing him long term earlier. It's been something to see for a while. Wow, burning a year. It's been quite obvious there's a good reason to do it. You can't get a guy to sign quicker because you can't sign them until they get to a certain. It's not like football, you can just sign them tomorrow. You have to wait. Couldn't do the Christian Gonzalez thing. Right. Like, get the deal. I need the deal now. Even though I'm under team control for another three years. Right. Right. You've got to do it. You've got to play it out and you know, you get one year out. So they're closer to that Consta extension than they would be had they waited. And I think that's going to end up benefiting them if the cap does do what I think everybody thinks it's going to do. And that's that's good smart business, I think. NHL training camps open in a week. Yes, they do. Pretty much one week from tomorrow. The preseason begins the 19th. Well, we're 11 days from the start of the NHL preseason, sneaking up.

Yeah. And I'd mentioned the latest on Connor, hellabuck. I would imagine the sabers are still very much courting. That's the that's the buzz. The insiders have it as they're still doing that. So a few pieces over the weekend, one from Elliott Friedman, one from Jeff Merrick. Friedman, long weekend. So this might have been Friday or Saturday. Said the Jets have Stuart Skinner. They're going to need another goalie. Heading back to campus, timed web grade your entire tech setup. Switch to Verizon, buy or bring a qualifying smartphone and get a smart watch and a tablet on us.

Turbo hybrid has to do a little of everything. School bags, speech chairs, a grocery run. I swore would be small. Somehow there's still room in my sister text. I'm landing in Burbank, come pick me up. It seats seven, has over 600 miles of range and makes the 134 feel a little less like a test of character. Space, range, flexibility.

Is there another goalie there willing to say, hey, that gives us an acceptable tandem for what we're about to lose?

Carolina Buffalo have extra goalies speculated to be available. Jeff Merrick said, as part of the Securus and Price show, he has a wide frame of teams he can be traded to. We're all wondering, okay, how does he get to Buffalo? Is there a three-way deal here? New Jersey, involved Carolina. Do they come in? San Jose? The idea that I saw most recently suggested was that Alex Lyon would be on the move. Yeah. He would make this happen. Now, if the Sabers were to do that, now they have a cap crunch and they have to do something because I don't think they can... You're not going to want to have Luke and Anne and... Right. And hella bucks of deals. It's not a deal breaker that it would be that you'd have both of them, but I just... I don't think they coexist as goal tenders, let alone the contracts. So I think that would come with a corresponding move, I would assume.

I think no matter what, if the Sabers trade for Hella Buck, Luke and Anne is no longer on the Sabers, whether he's in the deal or not. It's a matter of time. It's... He's done. That... He would... He would ask out. Yeah. He'd want to leave. It's just not a spot where you want to be behind that guy. As a goalie that thinks you can play 50 plus games. And so the three-team deal... I brought this up before the draft as an ideal with Carolina, because part of the deal with Winnipeg is they want a young guy that could potentially be a long-term starter. Buffalo doesn't... Other than Luke and Anne who doesn't sound like wants to go, have that to offer. Unless they really think highly of Colt Nellis, but I don't think that's going to be in a deal for Hella Buck. That just doesn't feel like it's a piece that they'd be interested enough in. My thought was trade Lion to Carolina and get them to send Kachakov up to Winnipeg. Because Carolina is very comfortable with a rotating set of goalies.

And Lion I think would fit very well what they do. He's very consistent. He plays a style that I think would be a really good fit with Carolina. And I think it would make sense. They would be willing to do it because that's the kind of thing they do. Freddie Anderson, they've got all kinds of guys that are, I think, of the Lion archetype. And that, I think, could solve one of the issues that Winnipeg is facing that there's not what they want out there. That could be a way around that problem with Buffalo. And because I don't think Carolina or New Jersey, two of the teams that Merrick mentioned as possibilities in a three-team trade, would be that interested in Hella Buck himself. Those are two... I've made this point about Sonny Mata and Eric Tolstky in Carolina is the same way. Hyperanelitically focused general managers. And a 33-year-old goalie that had a down year is not a hyperanelitical guy move. It's just not. The analytics will tell you you can get by with anybody in that.

And those guys are more likely to follow that philosophy than anybody. And so, therefore, I think it makes sense for them to say, well, if we could add a piece we think might be 20% better or more consistent for us in that by getting a veteran and moving out a young guy that's been hurt for us a lot, Kuchetkov, I think that would make sense. And so, I think there's a real possibility of a three-way deal getting done here if the sabers do end up acquiring Hella Buck. Extend those sports coming up. We'll keep you up there in Hella Buck if anything changes there. But yeah, training camps pretty much a week from tomorrow Thursday. And the NHL's preseason begins next weekend. Not this one, not this coming weekend. The weekend after this coming weekend. That's next weekend. I feel like maybe we should argue about that.
