Also, WTF Methot?
Methot should have taken that contract he was being offered, because at this point he's not going to get anything remotely approaching that. There are just way too many rumors (not just NEELY; I've heard them discussing this on pre-game shows, even though they won't quite come out and say it point blank). He misses the first 24 games, practices with the team forever, and after one game he's out again. I don't think he bring anything unique to the table to make other GMs overlook these red flags.
Oh, and I believe that the last offer the Sens had on the table is no-longer on the table.
THANK YOU for at least pointing out the fact I am not completely full of BS. People HATE what I write sometimes especially on the rumours that can't be proven other than hearing or seeing it for yourself but I have never lied about what I know and a lot of the time it comes out eventually whether it was Emery, Spezza, McGratton, or whoever else. Little sick of people saying "that's BS" when my track record about the off ice stuff is pretty solid.
Methot is about the last player they should be giving term and money to and while he might fill the hole they are looking to fill he is 100% the wrong guy to be doing it. He's holding out right now in the only way he can because he doesn't like what's going on with business. Sucks for him because it's going to end up costing him.
