Ya your right any cost ...means I would of signed him to 10 yrs 10 mill per right ? Didn't think he'd get signed 7 yrs man lol

Played 56 games in 2 yrs ... He'll probably come back for one last try but he's done

Did I say sign clarkson at any cost ? Yes but thats before he got his contract I never would of signed clarkson for 7 years ... 7+ yr contracts should only be for elite players Again same with clowe .... Was I wrong about them both? I'd say yes and no .... Yes most definetly on clowe ... Clarkson if he was here for 2 million instead of what he's getting I think people wouldn't complain, it's that contract and playing in toronto that killed him ... He's a good effective bottom 6 guy and I do expect he'll be better in Columbus next season And if you check the thread there were a lot of people pro clarkson not just myself ... The contract term was just ridiculous

Ya same , still too soon to give up on sproul though ... Next year will be huge in determining his nhl future

I never said I was always right , didn't I mention I was wrong about glendening ? And I never said I would sign clarkson or clowe to the deals they got .... I never would of have given clarkson that contract or clowe the term he gotEveryday or so I gotta read you getting into little arguments over stuff with some people cause you seem to think your always right so how about you take your own advice and give stuff a rest?

http://www.thehockeynews.com/blog/future-watch-2015-the-nhls-top-10-rising-prospects/ A bit old but just found it ... 3 wings on the top 10 prospect risers

So they counted all the votes

European skaters Defensemen outside of top 10 19 Jesper lindgren 25 veeti vainio ( he looks promising ) 44 stepan falkovsky (6'6) 47 Lucas carlsson 53 Lucas jonsson 71 alexander leanderssen (17 yrs old and 6'3 205 already) 78 alexander anderberg Forwards 21 kevin stenlund 34 radova bondra (6'5) 39 roman dymacek 64 jonathan davidsson 65 Christopher mastomaki 66 Fredrik forsberg 89 Gustav olhaver (17 and 6'6 213)

I'm not against backing ourselves in the draft and getting as many picks as possible , been checking the draft rankings and there's a lot of dmen and a few forwards that catch my eye

I trust in our scouting staff and if it were possible id keep trading back and try and get as many picks for the 2nd and 3rd rounds as possible and try and draft some gems in there

He's not a defensemen but svechnikov intrigues me

Wtf kind of bulls*** is this?? Sounds like a fix to me ... Why the hell wouldn't they tell people there's a limit so people don't waste there f***en time? I smell a bettman

Bobby ryan is a waste , can he score? Yes he can shoot but he dissapeared in the playoffs and towards the end of the year ... Not the type of guy you can win with Gaborik was tossed around from place to place ... His glory says are way behind him Rick nash is good but another guy who's just a playoff disaster for whatever reason can't get it done at the big show Saint louis was dealt at 38 and nyr gave up a lot for him cause there contending and there window is closing Seguin is the big guy in there with his whole future ahead of him and well that trade was done cause the boston bruins are f***en dumbasses and you'll likely not find another gm who will trade a superstar for basically nothing Did richards and carter help l.a? Sure but richards is In the ahl now and the kings won because of the core of the team is led by kopitar doughty and quick who are all on there prime Point is we won't be adding any superstar players in there prime now unless there ufa's which they don't go there anymore or we trade away all our top prospects and I'm not willing to do that If there's a good role played or good player who can fetch 15-30 goals I'm sure we will try to add them if we can like we did with cole

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_NHL_Entry_Draft Redwings are drafting 19 and then 73 Swinging our 19th to buffalo for the 21 and 51 spot would be nice but I doubt they'd do that unless they really wanted someone

I had no idea patric hornqvist was an nhl star

Can he skate? If so I'd rather have him than miller or anderssen at this point ... Adding a big body like Aubry even if it's on the 4th can't hurt

I'm amazed at the comeback wow .... 12 000 pt lead Can't see us losing , they'd need like 4000 votes an hour now We lose it's really fixed

He's not the same player as he once was though ... The days of reading for mega stars and signing them as ufa's are over ... It's more role guys that are available and I'm personally not willing to give up top prospects and 1st rounders for those Those trades not only happened before they won the cups ... It happened years ago ... Big name guys haven't been dealt in like 5 yrs and beyond Our Grand Rapids team is stacked full of young talent with loads of potential not just a few prospects and aging ahlers which makes it more exciting and the fact that they can win yet again another Calder is amazing and makes the wings future that much more to get excited about McCollum has surprisingly been playing well , I had written him off ... Maybe he could be mrazeks backup in 2 yrs?

I think we got our 3rd rounder ... I be down for trading down and possibly doing like we did last yr with dominic turgeon and trading 2016 pick and possibly drafting 3 2nd rounders if we like someone Holmstrom larkin athanasiou mantha bertuzzi won't get dealt so our prospect pool is still good and we got nosek as well and frk tvrdon who stepped up late as well , but like every draft we gotta hope to land 2-3 nhlers at least Any one know if louiis marc Aubry is out of waiver options? I had written him out but I heard he's been a lot better and he's a big body like 6'4 I believe and god knows we need that on our lineup

Ya been there since I saw the msg like 25-30 ppl at the same time it's nuts now hope we just build a big lead that those f***ers just give up

Wow wtf happened lol

Those trades happened ages ago and besides a few of them none were big names that were big cornerstones in teams winning cups All the teams that won the cups drafted the core guys .... And teams haven't been trading big name stars for years now and no big name ufa guys have been hitting the market for years as well Times have changed man ... We signed weiss and traded for cole and zidlicky didn't work If your willing to trade mantha athanasiou larkin holmstrom mrazek bertuzzi for non elite stars who will be ufa's in 3 years then I thank f***en god your not our gm Alot of utube who had great junior careers never produced at the nhl level ... A few 60 pt seasons in Florida was nothing to get excited about when we landed him , injury or not Sorry if I pissed you off with the idiots stuff but I got a lot worse s*** from people when I hated the signing when it happend And as for vermette yes there's more to a players game than points but I'm pretty sure the hawks didn't get him to not produce on the scoresheet just like the rangers did with yandle ... When you give up a high price they did for a player I'm sure there expecting points as well as good overall play

Unless we an get like 10+ ppl to go at a given time say 11-1130 At this point It's pretty much done with them being up 3000 votes , they always seem to get 5-15 ppl voting at a time and we get like 2-3 ppl if were lucky so I won't even bother at this point

Well these assholes passed us in 2 minutes and kicking ass now f*** there voting 12 ppl taa time duck which is what I was trying to get going here Everyone vote man 10am everyone here go vote at the same time

Pittsburgh was given the 09 cup cause bettman had to have his golden boy win it all to promote the nhl .... Last 5 yrs they have emptied out all there picks and prospects for nothing Chicago drafted toews Keith kane seabrook .... Who did they trade for exactly that helped them win a cup? Bruins? Ya that seguin trade really helped the bruins .... Rask was a nobody when they got him and chara was a ufa like 8 yrs ago , lucic bergeron krejci drafted ...who'd they trade for? Kings drafted doughty kopitar quick .... Gaborik was overrated and hardly a contributer in helping them win it all Nobody has traded for a big name or signed one in the ufa market to help them win a cup in a very long time
