They want to talk about players not getting the message, ala Raffi Torres, Keith has done this several times now (plus the flying Elbow on Daniel). It's fucking ridiculous that he gets away with slaps on the wrist time after time ...

Eore or something.. if you meet his llitte piggy friend.. roast him and eat some ribs!! hahahaha.. wtf am i on!! hahaha i'm going nuts over here!!!
If a team makes a bona fide offer, they should retain a player's rights until the player earns UFA status.
Even players with 4 years of NHL experience don't have that right; most players have to wait 8 years. Why should 4 years of college hockey earn a player more freedom than an established NHL veteran? It's hot garbage.
That NCAA rule is fuckig garbage! Also if your a NCAA player and a team drafts u beside the oilers u should honour that team that drafts u and go to that team!
same is said for players who opt out to sign with their respected teams after the draft a few years down the line. There really is no difference.
Minor difference is that CHL/junior players who don't sign with the team that drafted them don't become UFAs, but rather re-enter the draft first and get drafted a second time. This has notably happened with Stoll, Lombardi, Boynton, Scott Parker, Craig Anderson and the Canucks re-drafted Fedor Federov after Tampa initially drafted him.
I wouldn't worry about Demko/Boeser just yet, unless they head into their senior year still not signed.
I guess Vessey really doesn't want to play for Nashville. He would have been paid over 100k to play the last bit of the season here plus burn 1 year off his entry level giving him just 2 more years instead of 3 before turning into a RFA. Also didn't Toronto hire his dad and some other family member onto their staff?

Would anyone be shocked if Keith gets the rest of the regular season off, no playoff games, and heads into the playoffs with some R & R courtesy of the NHL Department of Player Safety?
By the way, if you haven't been reading through the NHL's unsealed e-mails that were publicized online recently, you're missing out. Some real gems, especially from Colin Campbell. Will make you lose a whole lot of respect for the people who run the league (except a few).
