Philly has signed Derian Hatcher, Chris Theiren and Mike Rathje to boost their defense. Adrian Aucoin signed a 4 year/16 million dollar agreement with the Hawks

Anyone going to provide a wish list for their own team?
I'm hoping Ottawa makes a pitch for Rafalski and Jason Allison. Nothing too dramatic, but I've been a fan of both of those guys for a while. |

Your Wild drafted a good one in Benoit Pouliot. As a native Sudbury boy and a fan of the Wolves I've watched as many games as I could on TV this past year and caught a playoff game while I was last home visiting. This kid has the goods to be a great NHLer. The Rangers moving up to draft Staal was another good move. My bro, a die hard Habs fan was so pissed he wasn't available. |

But with the prospect of big names and solid players being released and floating about for the taking, it is a chance for smaller teams like the Wild to add more depth to their lines. |

Eh Dave Scatchard ... another not bad pick up. Too bad about Modano though. So third line Scatchard-Isbister-McEachern. I can live with that.

Edmonton acquired Pronger from St Louis for Eric Brewer, Doug Lynch and Jeff Woywitka.
http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story.asp?ID=132273&hubName=nhl I don't think I would have given up Brewer personally. |

why he's no where near as good as pronger ... I wouldn't have given up both Brewer and Woywitka though. Woywitka is an amazing skater.

Brewer is also near half a decade younger then Pronger and he was also (with Pronger) on the Canadian Olympic team. It's gonna be exciting to see Pronger on the Oilers but I think they may have given up to much, I really really like Brewer. |

he has no where near the offensive upside pronger has though. Edmonton has good defense and just got better there. I think it's a great move. The only way they gave up to much was to include Woywitka.

Since the pens just got Gonchar, I doubt they'll get Nieds, and the Canucks just tied up a chunk of change with Naslund. Love to see the Flames get him though. Fuck det and nj.

Dissapointed that the Pens didn't get Kovy, but I was hoping that the Habs would retain him if he didn't return to the Pens.
Good to get Gonchar, the Pens need more help on the blue line than they do up front. |

Oilers just traded York for Peca...
wow Lowe's getting some big guys, gonna be a great season. Satan signs with the Islanders, guess the cap room left by peca left Milbury with a couple extra bucks. Hope they have fun paying 7.8 million for Yashin ![]() |

Blackhawks sign blue-liner Adrian Aucoin and reports are they could be close to signing superstar center Peter Forsberg and goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin.
If this goes down, I'll be proud to don my Hawks jersey once again. |

Wow, really like he Bruins moves.
Especially if they land Modono, there word is if they don't they're going after Forsberg. I also keep hearing Scott Young wants to play here, but have no idea his contract status. |

doesnt matter if the go after forsberg as the Flyer just signed him to a 2 year contract.
FLyers are now over the cap, but its being reported or whatever that they'll ship Roenick to the LA Kings... Great, Roenick back in the west ![]() |

I dont see why the Bruins would go after Modano for that much money, when they seem to be playing tougher with Thorton. They should be trying to lock him up for years to come. If they're going to be paying too much money for a player, why not go after someone like Niedermayer, especially after loosing Gonchar.

I'd take Brewer over Pronger IMO. Brewer is younger faster and does have an offensive side to his game. It's not as good as Pronger's, but Pronger is older, slower and injury riddled. Peca, OMG. I'm happy for the Oil, that makes two Captains from other teams they just acquired, BTW.

Think they stick with Conklin/Markkanen in net? I could see Lowe going after someone like Thibault if the Hawks sign Khabibulin likes its being said...

The Oil's back baby. I think you're on to something, KK. I can see them going after a higher quality goalie. Not sure if they could afford say, Theodore, but Thibault is a steal. Man, he's real good, surprised the Hawks wouldn't want to hold on to him.
