Good luck with Butler. Inconsistent at best...

Hanso Amore 06-26-2011 10:40 PM

Byron is a decent player, but the sabres already have too many undersized forwards anyways.

It was actually Colborne, not Caron but still not a bad trade.

Also, Them selecting Biggs was a great move.

Sean 06-26-2011 11:42 PM

Yeah, what am I saying, they still have Caron as a Black Ace.

El Fangel 06-27-2011 12:04 AM

Who does? Toronto? He is still a Boston prospect. Confused as to what you are saying here.

JimmyMess 06-27-2011 09:18 AM

So did Ryan Smyth cum in his pants or have a light beer or something to celebrate his return to Edmonton?

Skippord 06-27-2011 04:24 PM

what if he came in his light beer?

KleptoKlown 06-27-2011 05:05 PM

Bieska signs a 5 year 23 million dollar deal.

4.6 million cap hit is pretty good. He could have got 5+ if he went to July 1 especially considering the cap floor has gone up.

This deal might not look as good when he's 34-35 years old, but hopefully by that time the cap is a lot higher and this is just an average contract.

El Fangel 06-28-2011 01:42 AM

Took a cut to stay me thinks.

He is a Black Ace for Boston. I messed him & Colborne up originally, that was all.

LoDownM 06-28-2011 02:42 AM

Talbot turned down a 3 year deal with the Pens, gonna be so pissed if he goes somewhere else.

Emperor Smeat 06-28-2011 08:15 PM

Mark Howe, Ed Belfour, Doug Gilmour, and Joe Nieuwendyk are this year's members for the Hall of Fame.

No women, management, refs, or builders got enough votes to be enshrined this year.

He did say he'd take less to stay in Vancouver, as did Kesler, as did the SEDINS. Yes the Leafs were going to pay them more.

Arashi Kage 06-28-2011 09:20 PM

Ehrhoff's rights traded to Isles for a 4th rounder. Good or bad for the Canucks?

El Fangel 06-29-2011 12:00 AM

Ehrhoff was an integral part. Steal for the Isles if they can sign him and he is fairly young on a young Isles team that will be good soon. I think he'll sign.

YOUR Hero 06-29-2011 09:45 AM

Erhoff is good, but the Canucks have a ton of guys that are all about the same in terms of talent, what the Canucks need is a star Dman. (weber) So this is no surprise, too bad because I like erhoff, but in the cap era you have to make moves like this.

Hanso Amore 06-29-2011 01:05 PM

3 More Years of Gerbe. YES.

El Fangel 06-29-2011 06:41 PM

Varlamov going to KHL

Ehrhoffs rights now belong to Buffalo...

Buffalo then sends Montadors rights to the blackhawks.

Arashi Kage 06-29-2011 11:57 PM

Surprised that no one mentioned Kariya retiring due to on going post-concussion problems. :nono:

http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/stor...a-retires.html

Scary to think that this could be Crosby's fate.

Too many great players lost to concussions. :n:

LoDownM 06-30-2011 03:06 AM

I read like a week ago that Crosby was cleared to do his normal summer workouts and other stuff. So I don't think he'll be going anywhere.

As for Kariya, sucks he had to retire because of a concussion, great player. And he was 11 points and games away from 1000 points and games played.

El Fangel 06-30-2011 08:23 AM

Terrible.

Think Malkin is cleared as well.

He wants to be a Red Wing

MVP 06-30-2011 10:26 AM

Apparently the Montreal police are ready to speak with Zdeno Chara for their investigation on his hit on Max Pacioretty. What a waste of taxpayer money. :nono:

El Fangel 06-30-2011 10:53 AM

Yep, even I as a Habs fan think that its retarded.

Also, Im stoked. Montreal vs Winnipeg on my birthday :)

Also, before the season starts. Winnipeg became my second team after Montreal as its the first time I have ever experienced a team move while I was actively into hockey and I love that we now have 7 teams in Canada.

Did the Wings move a few hundred miles South East and change their Colors to Blue and Gold?

El Fangel 06-30-2011 09:40 PM

8 Million signing bonus? Red Who?

Hanso Amore 06-30-2011 11:57 PM

18 Million over the first 2 years, so its front loaded. 3 Miillion over the last 3 years.

So no way he plays out the 10 years.

Regehr? Check

Ehrhoff? Check

Richards? Lets go Pegula. HAT TRICK.

CSL 07-01-2011 01:38 PM

Jagr signs with the Flyers

LoDownM 07-01-2011 02:36 PM

Talbot to the Flyers sjfksdklfhdajkl;adfsjkl;asef :mad:

Corndad 07-01-2011 03:14 PM

Wow. I think Philly dropped half their team to have money just to piss off Pens Fans I swear. Wow. First Jagr then Talbot. That first game is gonna be crazy.

Hanso Amore 07-02-2011 02:58 AM

Leino to buffalo.

Im ok with this. I really like his game.

Hanso Amore 07-02-2011 03:03 AM

<iframe width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/3na86yIH-j4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

If you can watch this and not think Gerbe is an amazing skill player in the vain of Kariya, you are crazy

Crazy deal. Bad bad bad for the entire deal.

YOUR Hero 07-02-2011 10:26 PM

Richards to the Rangers, 9years. I dunno, guy with concussion issues, I hope he stay healthy, but there's something about guys to the Rangers that doesn't seem to work out to well most of the time.

Blitz 07-02-2011 11:42 PM

Leafs sign Tim Connolly. I'm happy with that.

Really?

Ill give him this, Timmy is INHO one of the BEST Penalty Killing Forwards in the NHL. And that is ALL he is anymore.

Ever since his Last Concussion he hasnt been the same.

And at nearly 5 million a year, he is not worth it.

Maybe he will go off like Clark Mac in a new city, but I dont think so.

5 million for a Penalty Killer that will struggle to score 10 goals is not something I would be happy with.

OssMan 07-03-2011 06:50 PM

Varly NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
