So they're just throwing money around...
-
4 years at any cap hit is bad for Cleary.
-
Good, go to Dallas with Horcoff. Have fun! We're better off with Alfredsson over Cleary.
-
signed Wings sign Alfredsson to 1-year, $3.5m deal (+$2m bonuses)
skyphoenix replied to ogreslayer's topic in General
Love this signing. Replaces Cleary (hopefully) and is much much better. -
I don't see us signing Weiss if he wants that much. If we don't get another center, we'll likely not be able to play Z and Dats together often and our centers would be Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Helm, and Andersson...if Helm can play.
-
But it's Holland's fault Detroit is a traditional hockey market. What an idiot. Why would he do this to us!?!
-
The Wings aren't getting Horton or Clarkson.
-
What's everyone's problem with Alfredsson? Besides his injuries, he can still put up points. He's playing more games than Samuelsson is at this point too.
-
Dreger says Alfredsson is mulling over his options. Detroit and Boston still very much in the mix with the Sens, of course. And nevermind, again.
-
I'll be furious if we sign Ribeiro. He can play but my God, he has no sportsmanship whatsoever. It's also been mentioned that we were kicking the tires on Alfredsson and Bozak. And I see it's already been mentioned...
-
I'm confident he'll re-sign with us. I just don't want to believe he'd leave after how the fans/other players have treated him here.

Report: Red Wings out on Lecavalier - signs with Philly 5@4.5 per
skyphoenix replied to HockeytownRules19's topic in General
Well when the Flyers move Pronger to LTIR, they'll free up around $4mil in cap space taking into account how much over they are now. It's not a lot but they'll figure it out. They won't have any goaltending but then again they never have. -
A lot of people would say Quincey's $3.75mil a season is a gross overpayment but when we re-signed him there really wasn't much for Defensemen on the market and we were hurting in that area. Like someone said earlier, supply and demand plays into it a lot. Next year, players might not be getting as much money because the market is flooded with talent.

Dreger: Filppula looking for $5.5m/season over at least 7 years
skyphoenix replied to a topic in General
It's moreso people being pissed that he expects 7yrs at $5.5mil when he doesn't produce anywhere near what that contract would suggest. I love Filppula, always have, but good riddance. -
I would expect Brunner to be asking for 4-5 years or something and we're wanting 2-3 and they're probably even on pricing for this deal not to be done yet. That or Brunner wants to see what other teams think he's worth right now and go back to Holland and see what he does.

And according to her, it looks like Cleary will be around 3 years $9mil (What the f***???) and Brunner will be around $2.5mil a year with no length specified.
-
Leino wasn't producing in his first full season here and we couldn't afford to keep him, so traded him to Philly where he got to the stanley cup finals and broke a club record and now he's making bank for doing nothing in Buffalo. I don't think he's crying about it.
-
No way would I want the Wings to pay Clarkson as much as Zetterberg.
-
Yep, good luck having any depth Pittsburgh. Congratulations to the GM of the year!!!! (What a joke)

Dreger: Filppula looking for $5.5m/season over at least 7 years
skyphoenix replied to a topic in General
Possibly. Every year he heard how it was his year to step up and realize his full potential and how he hasn't hit his ceiling. I think Fil is a great forward and would love to keep him on this team but what he's reportedly asking for is insaaaaaane in every sense of the word. -
Signed Datsyuk agrees to 3-year extension, $22.5m total, $7.5m/year
skyphoenix replied to Jersey Wing's topic in General
They've probably agreed to it but can't officially sign it until July 5th (I think). -
SJ is winning the diving competition? Couldn't have seen that one coming...
