    yes that guy is a complete tool. dont pay any attention to his crap.
    just know stamkos is unsigned still with less than a month to go .
    intriguing to say the least.
    you gotta figure syevie y is doing everything he can to re-sign him.
    shouldnt really take this long , unless maybe there is an issue.

    so are our RFAs though
