    RFA/UFA Signings

    Just a reasonable question for those who've already hit the panic button: Which contract given out today would you have liked to see Holland match, or improve upon to get said player to Detroit?

    2011-12 Florida Panthers

    I'd vote for "soon to be cash-strapped" over "relevant".

    RFA/UFA Signings

    Avs have to spend money and could have gotten Vokoun for money. To burn a 1st and a 2nd on Varlamov is crazy.

    RFA/UFA Signings

    The Wings never show their hand ahead of time ... therefore, no indication of anything. I doubt they'll trade for Weber or Doughty. I've been saying for weeks (not here) that the only guy that really makes sense for the Wings is Richards. He wants to win, doesn't want a big market team. The Wings need him in the top six ... he seems like a perfect fit for them, and them for him.

    RFA/UFA Signings

    Clearly the Wings are going to go hard for Brad Richards. They won't leave money on the table and other than offer sheets to Doughty or Stamkos, there's no other players that make sense for the Wings at BIG money.

    No, No, NO! Jagr interested in Detroit.

    Meltdown #2 for blue.

    Thoughts on Joni Pitkanen

    Best advice ever ... ignore 'blueadams' threads, and coming from blueadams. Why you haven't been banished, I don't understand.

    Please, just stop "talking".

    gritty players I would like the wings to sign

    Erskine, as it was mentioned upthread, has two more years remaining on his Capital's contract.

    Joe Thornton is too fast. Patrick Marleau has the heart of a Detroit Lion. Joe Pavelski would never dive, right? Antti Niemi? What does that mean? He's the "anti" Niemi? That makes him a perrenial loser, right. Sharks win 11-0, Canada is proud of it's Native son, Douglas Murray. Jason Demers can't read. It's announced after the series.

    Thoughts on the lines once Hank gets back?

    Blue, your line threads are hilarious, and borderline insane. I'm having my drinks ... anyone else still playing?

    He might have a lot of cap space, but he's only got 6 forwards signed, plus 5 defensemen (2 of which were not regulars) for the coming season. I thought he went a little long on St. Louis.

    TSN: Discussion of Modano To Wings

    I can't see Malty back here as a player under any scenario. His ship has sailed ... thanks Malts.

    Please don't delete the jokes. I've already copyrighted them. I need the money.

    So, who had Dan Hamuis in the pool as the guy who'd get the largest total contract on free agent day? Certainly not me.

    Perhaps that's what he'll ultimately choke on.

    Bon Scott died of choking on his own vomit. It remains to be seen what John Scott will die choking on.

    John Scott has less hockey skill than anyone currently in the NHL.

    Carcillo is RFA and as of right now, they have no money left to sign him with.

    Colin Fraser ... Cam Barker earlier because of this mess they put themselves into. Likely a few more, up to and including their big star ... Stanley Cup.

    That is just fine by me. For those wondering why Holland isn't doing anything today: The #1 reason why your players are overpaid is because you signed them on July 1st. Not soon enough, I'm afraid.

    Tallinder at 4 X 3.375 may now surpass the Gonchar contract as the day's worst. Just brutal.

    He helped them get there, right? Look, neither goalie in this year's final is the answer, to any question ... other than "who were the two goalies in the finals?"
