Ok heres how the lines will look Wahlberg-Barker-Shinedown Robitaille-Snoop- Roenick Slattery-MaClean-Olczyk Kennedy-Lafleur-Waters Cirque de Soliel can run D and Rambin in goal. The season just needs to start already

What are you guys complaining about? $2 million a year is nothing compared to how much guys are being overpaid around the league.

Pam Anderson should be there. She's Canadian. Basically, her and Lilja should host.

I remember my stanley cup was ruined too because my gf was mad at me after the game cause i didn't come over when she wanted me to instead i invited my buddies over and watched the game and celebrated at my house. it was worth it though

Really? Eaves on the second line over Cleary *and* Bertuzzi? Partnered with Homer? Did I miss something?

guido mad guido flip couch

C'me on...He deserved a raise.The guy isnt a 4th line guy...45 points at 1.8 million is a great deal!

It would be time for a Falcon Punch

Fixed.

LOL @ this. Some people on here amaze me. He's just having some good fun on a bad situation that he never ended up getting sentenced on btw. You know, if he beat the s*** out of the cabby he might have actually got prosecuted lolololol Some people are soooooooooo sour over Chicago winning the Cup, f*** i love it.

Agreed. I wish he'd remember how f-ing big he is and start playing like it. 6'3" and 230 lbs, and Darren Helm hits harder than him. If he uses his size more and stops taking stupid offensive zone penalties while maintaining his current level of play otherwise, I'll be ecstatic with this deal.

We have had this discussion before, but first, it is a good problem to have. That means you have multiple lines that can contribute. It puts more pressure on their line mates, because more is expected of them, which is good. First and second line guys will get top defensive pairings, so I have always like scorers on the third or fourth line, because it creates mismatches. We have seen this with Samuelsson and Hudler, producing in a lower number of minutes on the lower lines. The players just have to get over the individual issues and realize it is all about the end result which is the win.

He makes $2.8m already, and the Thrashers cut off negotiations with him because he wanted an even higher salary; no doubt they thought he was overpaid as is.

With how weak the FA crop is this year, Bert probably could have gotten $2.5m on the open market. In other years, maybe not---but forward who can score are at a premium this year. There are so few of them. The same is true of goaltenders and good defensemen, for that matter. Also, I laugh at Colby Armstrong and his demands for a $4m contract. Hahahaha. What a tool.

And I'd like to see a retired international superstar be one of the presenters. I can't quite put my finger on it but I'm thinking they should wear glasses and bring their own wine. Would it go to triple overtime then?

Canadian isn't the first asset I think of when I imagine Pamella Anderson. Also, I'm so used to typing Swedish names that I wrote "Andersson" first. And I'd like to see a retired international superstar be one of the presenters. I can't quite put my finger on it but I'm thinking they should wear glasses and bring their own wine.

I hope they get crushed in their stupid new arena. score of like 9-0 or somethin

It's not a terrible price, but it's still $2 million for 2 years for a player we didn't need, and who won't help much. I know I said I wouldn't hate it, but at that price and term it sucks. Once Helm, Abby, a 7th defenseman, and 13th forward are signed, we'll be lucky to have $500k left for deadline moves. Also, if we're lucky and Nick comes back again, this is our teams for two more years. We'll maybe lose Draper and Ozzie, replace them with nobodies, and spend the savings on raises for Howard and Ericsson. Hooray.

if I was holmstrom i would be offended now.

Well Snoop is cool. Keep him.

That vid has gotta be fake like her chest, although that is a nice looking place for the ****** family to live. I generally get left alone during games and I always know where the remotes are.

Not sure why I got minus-3 for that. He has a two-way contract, has never played North American hockey before and has agreed to play in Grand Rapids if need be. Don't get angry at me that that's where he'll spend his FIRST season in North America. Not my fault Good signing for Grand Rapids at any rate.

THAT IS SO COOL!

I probably hate Kane and the Hawks more than anyone on this board. But look, he did admit his mistakes, I'm not saying he paid his dues, but he's just joking around, without (obviously) implying what he did to the cabbie was funny...

to retire... in order to replace Brad McCrimmon and lead the Red Wings to have the best PK in the world.
