didnt prust not play alot in nashville?? and was healthy scratch for games ? i dont know we needed grit and toughness but he's 5'9 LOL you think guys like scott thornton wont laugh in his face? would rather of got brandon prust but i dont think he'd have come here anyways . his girlfriend is from montreal so i dont think anyone but the rangers had a chance at prust

you forgot to add pittsburgh has bettman

if he joins pittsburgh the hates valid in my eyes lol if he doesnt come here but goes anywhere but pittsburgh i wouldnt care

this is all for show everybody knows after crosby banged parise and his whole family at game 3 of the finals he's going to pittsburgh .... F him if we get suter trade quincey.abdelkader and unfortunetly nyquist for bobby ryan , hes got a more cap friendly hit than nash and less term

id rather have taken a chance and just signed semin to 2 yrs 10 million ( if that were possible) next thing you know lilja will be back .... theres a problem with always getting back players that were here , they age and retire and when that happens you become the calgary flames because you have no one left on your team thats good and youngish

assuming brunner makes the lineup we added 3 bodies yesterday and were not finished , kennys gonna have alot of bodies to ship out of detroit , didnt count but i think we have something like 17-18 forwards as of now? i got a bad feeling about nyquist being gone , if i was drafted player from detroit id be pissed cause the way it goes here it's like you got a 1% chance of ever playing Finally get a chance to make some kids like nyquist play here this upcoming season and probably tatar in 2013-2014 and we just keeping filling in wastes like bertuzzi and samuelsson who are 35-40 wouldnt be surprised at this rate if tatar as well gets shipped out of detroit with nyquist in a trade

still pissed and puzzled at this signing im dreading those shots missing the net from the point on the powerplay from samuelsson and a full no trade .... makes no sense

OHHHHHH goddddd just thinking of him now on the point on the power play shooting the puck and always missing the net lmao oh god whyyyyyyyy might have to take a 2 yr break and go for tampa bay OH YAAAAAAAAAAAAA AND WTFFFF IS UP WITH THE FULL NO TRADE CLAUSE !! are youuuuu f*cken kidding me??????? who the f is samuelsson to get a full no trade??? oh god kenny

OMGGGGG been out all day and night and i find out samuelsson's back???? wtfffffffffffffffff i was pro holland but this is f*cken ridiculous , he should be fired just for this stupid signing! My god i thought we were rid of samuelsson for good and now this ! wtf is wrong with him man, he's too loyal and always brings back ex players ! at this point i wont even be shocked anymore if hudler and holmstrom returns ! 2 more years of this crappppppp god help me man and 3 million cap hit??? WTFFFF really lost for words im stunned rather of given a 40 year old jagr a 2 yr 6 million dollar deal .... holland's lost his f'n mind , problem with this team is they stick to the same guys and bring back old players because they are "familiar" with them ... its a load of horse crap at this rate devereaux will come out of retirement or wherever the hell he is and come back here ... dont jinx us lol

i just wanted to say i hope redwings fans arent pissed at holland if suter and parise go elsewhere and we see carle and garrisson etc signing elsewhere for ridiculous contracts like 5 million + a season I'd rater we dont go crazy for these guys and spend wisely and keep some money for shea weber next year and whoever else will be available July 1 can be a pretty crazy day where alot of stupid gm's overspend on mediocre talent and as much crap as kenny gets here from some fans i know hes not stupid and i wont for example sign garrisson to like 5 years for 25 million like some idiot probably will that being said lets hope we get suter and some grit like prust at least , everyone enjoy july 1st

3.2 million a year is ridiculous for gaustaud i know hes more than just pts (21) but its still pathetic and i gotta assume someone like prust wont come here now as he can probably get 2-3 which is way more than hes worth ... abdelkader must be laughing

i'd be f*cken pissed if he didnt sign to at least 2 years , we gave up a 1st and there were alot of quality players at 19 , tb drafted the russian goalie , malcolm subban was still there etc..

youd rather be in sh*t for the next 5 years than be smart ???? example matt carle 5 yrs 25 million garrisson 5 yrs 25 million semin 5 yrs 30 million prust 5 yrs 10 million lets just say we do that tomorrow you'll be happy??? i sure as hell wont if were gonna spend alot of money and term on guys i want them to be stars not overpayed players dont forget shea weber next year is a ufa we gotta leave some cash to target him next year even though we got clearys salary off the books we dont know what the new cba will be im surprised this hasnt gotten done yet , just offer quincey 2 years at 3.5 per and abdelkader 1.85 for 4 years id be pissed if we offered quincey 1 year and then hes a ufa and leaves , we gave up a first round pick for a 1 year rental? and if he's not what we hope he will be next year we trade him , someone will take on a one year deal at 3.5

Ryan Suter - Detroit or Philadelphia Zach Parise - Pittsburgh Alexander Semin - Detroit P.A. Parenteau - Montreal Brandon Prust - Detroit Matt Carle - Anaheim Jiri Hudler - Carolina Martin Brodeur - Tampa Bay Jason Garrison - Detroit or Nashville (Depends what happens with suter) Ray Whitney - Boston Jaromir Jagr - Philadelphia Shane Doan - Detroit (wishful thinking) or Pittburgh Ryan Smyth - rangers Andrei Kostitsyn - New jersey Olli Jokkinen - minnesota Paul Gaustaud - vancouver Dustin Penner - los angeles

yes they are in the headline but im just trying to make a point that i hope no one gets crazy mad if they go elsewhere (because they are our #1 priorities like alot of teams) and the rest of the ufa's go elsewhere for crazy sums of money instead of detroit does anyone actually want matt carle or garrisson for 5 yrs for 25 million for example? i wouldnt

your trade proposals are crazy , giving up way too much .... that being said i actually had a conversation today with my friend about jay Bouwmeester , i dont know why hes sucked so bad ever since he went to calgary but i did tell my friend if he wasnt making so much money for the next 2 years i would take a chance at him , i think he can rebound here and be alot better than he is in calgary He wont be a top 2 guy but he wont be as crap as he is now, that being said hes making 6.8 now for 2 years so forget it , if he wants to sign for like 3 million in 2 yrs and give it a go in detroit i might take a chance depending what our defensive group is by then

i dont know how anyone else feels but i think we should just lock him up for another 4-5 years asap , when this deal ends he will be 29 .... i really dont wanna go past 5+ million for him if we sign him now for 5 years at 4 mill per do you guys think he would take it?? beside this past season where he got 66 pts he hit 40 pts once and below that every other year its a risk that could pay for us like it did with kronwall filppula 5 yrs for 20 million , would you do it?? would filppula sign you think? He's a key redwing and cant take the chance he'd test the market

i checked hossa always had kovalchuk in atlanta .... kovalchuk always had heatley or hossa as well as marc savard and kozlov ovie had no one his first season ill give you that , but he got semin in his 2nd and backstrom and green then came along Nash played QUITE a few games with the likes of Fedorov, Vermette, Brassard, Vorachek, Prospal and most recently Carter -------- you cant be serious?? fedorov was on the decline of his career, brassard was/is a bust, voracek hit the 50 pt mark once , prospal's a decent player hardly ever was a star and joined the team at 36 and jeff carter?? come on he was such a bust he didnt even last the season and dont forget he was hurt its simple rick nash has never had A star player to play with Theres a reason why columbus has been at the bottom of the nhl for years , and no im not saying rick nash is worth what columbus is asking for i wouldnt give up all those assets for one single player , but if rick nash was here you better believe he'd be scoring 40-50 i wouldnt take his ridiculous contract either and i wouldnt give up all thats asked for rick nash but i do think your so wrong about nash he's way more than a 60-75 pt guy and i do think if he goes to a good team hes gonna be so pumped up again and youll see a 40-50 goal season

if it was up to me cleary and/or bertuzzi wouldnt be back and replaced with guys like prust ,doan etc.. unfortunetly ken holland is overly loyal ... bertuzzi never should of been resigned to 2 yrs especially now that hes 37

no surprise ... old news

heatley and kovalchuk had eachother at least and slava kozlov was still not bad when he went there , marc savard was starting out ....hossa started off in ottawa so he had good players , hossa in atl then had kovalchuk and kozlov Who did rick nash ever have???? huselius? umberger??zherdev? i dont know whats with the hate towards rick nash its quite clear he has never had any good players to play with let alone players, im not saying i want nash in detroit the price would be way too high but i do think if he goes to the rangers or flyers, sj he will pop 40-50 easy crosby got malkin,stal,letang etc ... ..... ovie got backstrom, semin,green .... nash got ...... i kinda feel bad for the guy lol , id have asked for a trade years ago

WOW are you even serious???? .... Crosby, Ovechkin, Heatly, Hossa and Kovy put up on worse teams than the BJs in their past.??????? those players put up better numbers and they were on worse teams than columbus???how the hell was pittsburgh,washington,san jose etc... worse than columbus?? columbus is a laughing stock , and who the hell did rick nash ever have to play with???? all those players you mentioned above ALL had someone to play with rick nash has been a lone ranger in columbus his whole career

love abdelkader but i think prust is better right now at what he does , id much rather have BOTH the more grit on this team the better if we can add prust and someone else like doan or ott or whomever itll only help the team 1.6 for prust for 3-4 yrs he's 28 and its not a crazy contract youd find hard to trade away if ever holland wanted to

congrats to quick who gets to live the rest of his career and probably his life in sunny los angeles california .... so jealous

agreed ,rick nash has NEVER had anyone to play with and he popped in a ton of goals for such an awful team, theres no doubt in my mind if he went to detroit or somewhere like ottawa to play with spezza and karlsson he can get 40-50 goals .... hes been in an awful position for such a long time that being said i dont wanna give up all those assets for one single player
