@piratesfan1111 @NHLRumourReport Fair points. I agree. The talent has never been the issue with Mantha. Injuries and inconsistency have followed him throughout his career.

@ThePuckLibrary @NHLRumourReport Honestly I have no clue after his playoff performance was prob gonna get 6m now idk but if you watched him 75% of his goals are him just lurking and karlesson sending a full ice pass to him. I was fine with resigning him til he was a huge reason why we fell apart in playoffs

Pierre LeBrun: Re Anthony Mantha: The Penguins would have brought him back on another one-year deal, but that’s not happening. Mantha’s camp, led by agent Olivier Fortier, will bring his client to market - The Athletic (6/18)

@piratesfan1111 @NHLRumourReport Still, he had 33 goals and 64 points last season. Where do you think he ends up, and what AAV do you think he'll get?

@ThePuckLibrary @NHLRumourReport Nobody’s taking a gamble on him for what he wants he’s a very lazy player who scores only 1 way breakaway pass 5 hole to score

Serious question: does Carolina even allow out-of-shape players? 😂 Rod Brind’Amour has clearly set the standard.

McTavish to Edmonton? 👀 Carolina’s Cup parade looked incredible. Now I’m just waiting for the “Under $8M Cap Space” T-shirts. 😂🏆 Here are all today’s number of new headlines by team below. Find every story at ThePuckLibrary.com/news/ under your team’s section.

Why those four? 🏒 Chicago: You all know why. 🦬 Buffalo: Hometown + maybe they're finally turning the corner. 🐙 Detroit: DeBrincat and familiarity. 👑 LA: Panarin, big city, and Holland loves experienced players. What's your reasoning? 👀

Patrick Kane’s nice tribute to Jonathan Toews yesterday got me thinking… Kane is quietly one of the biggest UFAs still available. My top 4 landing spots (no rumors, just my opinion): 🦬 Sabres 🎸 Blackhawks 🍁 Red Wings 👑 Kings Where do you think he ends up?

@FSVegasHockey OMG... you guys really want to be the NHL's villains. 😂😂

Edmonton, San Jose, Utah, Toronto, and... Buffalo

@Canes Congrats Canes! I really thought the missing $8M in cap space would've been the reason you came up short this year. I was wrong. 😅 Now we need an "Under $8M of cap space" championship T-shirt. 🤣

WE’RE COMING FOR Y’ALL

@TheMartySr @debrinDAWG @88PKane @NHLBlackhawks Toews had never played for the Jets either. He still went back to his hometown for one last season. That's all I meant. Then again, finishing his career in Chicago, would be special too.

@debrinDAWG @ThePuckLibrary @88PKane @NHLBlackhawks Why in the good green ever loving fuck would he sign with the sabres? He won three cups here in Chicago, went to Detroit from there, but never played for the sabres. O6 or not, you both don’t know puck.

Congrats to this legend on retirement. One of the best leaders the game has seen. I could not have asked for a better teammate to come into the league with and I’m proud of all our success together over the years.

@SummerofWood @HawksFan8319 @88PKane @NHLBlackhawks Haha, I remember that story. 😅 But I wonder if he simply had to choose between two teams that hadn't made the playoffs in forever, and playing with DeBrincat ended up tipping the scales? 😂

@HawksFan8319 @ThePuckLibrary @88PKane @NHLBlackhawks He's always been weirdly douchey toward Buffalo. Mainly since he beat up a taxi driver and didn't man up like a true Buffalonian.

@KyleJohns770 @NHLRumourReport Thanks for the reminder! 😅 You might've just solved it. Maybe Blackwood could be one of the pieces going the other way. 👀 Do you feel confident with the current goalie tandem, or was that the issue in last year's playoffs?

@ThePuckLibrary @NHLRumourReport You have Blackwood starting A 5 year deal…

Nick Kypreos: If...Connor Hellebuyck and the Jets do move forward with finding him a new destination, a number of teams will want to be in the mix, including Detroit, Buffalo and Florida - Sportsnet (6/17)

Today's news.... A hometown retirement. A big signing-and-trade. A star suddenly off the trade market. Trade rumours everywhere... 👀 It's been a busy day around the NHL. Find every team's headlines in one library: thepucklibrary.com/news/ #NHL Today's headlines by team

@TheMartySr @88PKane @NHLBlackhawks I'm confused. 😅 Kane is a UFA. If he signs with Buffalo this summer, he'd be finishing his career in his hometown. That's all I meant.

@ThePuckLibrary @88PKane @NHLBlackhawks Buffalo? He’s never played there as a pro. And toews is Canadian. Fuck man, be aware

The more I think about it, the more I feel this contract will age well. He also looks genuinely passionate about the game. Do you agree?

7 years at $7M+... Steal or overpay? I honestly can't make up my mind. 😅

@Dragongoldpen @NHLJets Fair point. I was only looking at it as a hockey fan, not from his personal perspective. I'm not upset he retired as a Jet, just thought a one-day contract with Chicago would've been great for fans.

@ThePuckLibrary @NHLJets So what? With all due respect this *is* the perfect way to cap off his career since it's about him and not the nebulous "the fans" it's about *his* hometown and *his* childhood dreams and a community that he grew up loving and continues to love.

Tazer, congratulations on a remarkable hockey career! Your love for the game, and your passion for this city has forever left a mark on our community 💙

@Haident123 @MapleLeafs @Raptors 🤣

@ThePuckLibrary @MapleLeafs @Raptors No I’ll just enter the dark times like marner 😂

Darren Raddysh: Been Toronto Down 🦖@Raptors

@Haident123 @MapleLeafs @Raptors 🤣🤣 A lot of rumors have him ending up with the Leafs or Panthers this summer. If he signs with the Leafs... is that the day you stop being a Leafs fan? 😂

@ThePuckLibrary @MapleLeafs @Raptors I hope to god not
