Great signing, great PKer seems like a good locker guy. Like it!!!

commmmmmon TatarSauce!!!!!!

Like I've said before, dude needs a new contract based on his personality alone. He's a great locker room guy it seems.

You realize we're talking about Evgeni friggin Malkin right? MAYBE Emmerton? Good god almighty....what is happening

Oh, my bad. I hadn't realized that was set in stone. My apologies.

Lol @ giving our "future" away for a 26 year old grandpa! You people are crazy saying you wouldn't want the 2nd best player in the world on this team.

I love how on Internet forums whenever a star is rumored to be on the move people always assume the asking price will be astronomical. Then when said player is dealt it's so underwhelming. It happens EVERY single time.

Another reason for a yes. "@TH2NSTATSGUY: Hossa: 5 of 7 goals in these playoffs have come when the game is tied, including his GWG tonight #clutch"

Yes, yes and more yes.

How much do you guys think he gets?

I never said it WILL happen. I was just throwing a number out there.

Oh yea, I forgot UFA's come crawling to Detroit for 2 mill a year.

Boston or LA. I went to school with Muzzin, so that'd be pretty neat.

This would make the off season a success in my eyes. Buyout - Sammy & TooToo . Cola Ordinary Buy Out Cleary not re-signed. Filppula not re-signed Brunner & NyQuist re-signed The Gordon signing is strictly for face off purposes. (8th in NHL this year) Also doesn't take a lot of penalties. Horton such a large contract because, well...you have to pay UFA's!

Surprised about the lack of Miller love on here. He was excellent on the PK. I'd like to see him here one more year.

Best news of the year. He see's the potential of this team as we should.

Potentially, Chicago is in DEEP trouble if he retires before his contract is up. I can't remember the number, but I recall it being significantly high.

They need to bring him back solely based on his personality & work ethic alone. He improved a ton in half a year.

In what universe are the Caps getting rid of Ovechkin? Now if Hossa becomes available, Detroit needs to jump all over that.

I'd go with a one handed Deke.

Don't blame the refs, Detroit played like utter garbage. Couldn't even cross the damn red line without turning it over. Win or lose Wednesday, I'm still extremely excited for next years team!!

Does Chicago ever NOT float at the blue line?

They have an extremely tough time exiting their zone.

Smith has been absolutely terrible.
