number9

Mike Commodore?

Kent Huskins could be a steady pick up

Well it's certainly Blashill's team now isn't it

You don't recognize Colton Orr when you see him???

Waitttttt I thought for certain Granato was the PP man?

Franson, too close to Franzen. Next.

Beleskey is this years overrated winger. Did well in the playoffs in a contract year, but really he's just an ok 3rd liner.

I'd take him, but for what? The isles were very very good this year and then got screwed in the playoffs by injuries. They probably want NHL ready D, which we don't have. Regardless he probably costs a fortune. Unlikely it happens.

Phaneuf is exactly like sharp. Leafs are probably are biggest rival outside of Chicago right now. Are they really gonna send their captain to us?

Let me help you believe

It's not And we're the Detroit Red Wings. They are the Chicago Blackhawks. We're most likely one of their last choices to trade with.

I don't we really wanna go with aging vets at this point. Rentals are one thing, but Sharp would be an investment that quickly loses value.

Are we talking about the Mcbain that couldn't hold down a job in Buffalo last year, or a depleted Kings D this year?

Steven Stamkos

Thank you for this. Some fans act like hockey players are all overpaid athletes like the other 3 major sports. Fact is they don't make a fraction of what's being handed out in football and baseball etc. That's why there's a lockout every few years. They're fighting for every penny. Then consider the fact that Avery is lucky. Despite his shortened career he earned more than most NHLers will ever earn. How many Cory Emmertons have slipped through the cracks? These guys gave their lives for the sport. Yet at the end of the day I don't feel bad for those who failed to plan ahead financially.

Was going to basically say this. Obviously, he's not a dumby. He seems to understand himself and his skill set quite well. As a guy who thrived as an agitator, he understood that he was the villain, and so he did the villain thing 110%. Now he's known as possibly the biggest hockey villain of all time, so I guess you could say he was successful in his goals.

Already signed with Winnipeg. 2 years 675,000 per.

Of course you have to have standards. You could have the best face off man in the league, but if that's all he's good for he's gonna be a liability anytime he's not taking a FO. Why are we comparing Peluso to Andersson? I don't claim to love Andersson. Winnipeg can have them both. Thanks though. That's exactly my point. You're all so irrationally sex-starved for fighting that a bench riding scrub actually has his own thread. It's insane.

2013-14 season. Aka last season. That u, and most other fight fans around here, basically have no standards when it comes to enforcers. You'll take any pylon willing to fight.

I said that 2 months ago

Best 4th liner in the game

And McCarty Do you actually want to address my comments about fighters, or do you wanna talk about Ken Holland more?

Uhhhh he signed Tootoo and Downey

Need money for the top lines? Trade Someone away Pairings? Entertain the fans? I don't care how many times a team fights when they're losing all their games. Hockey first, then fighting So what this is an anti-holland thread now? You know who he definitely won't sign? An insignificant scrub like Anthony Peluso

Same ppl who hate on Franzen now defend Mantha. It's like Christmas.
