    Parise Watch [update x2]: Red Wings OUT of Running

    I feel like maybe Ken & co. put a lot of eggs in the "We'll seduce him with a convoy" strategy. And then Zach's agent was like, "Go away." And parity reared its head again.

    And a goalie made of swiss cheese.

    So...meaning, Suter and Parise don't want to meet with anyone today?

    Parise Watch [update x2]: Red Wings OUT of Running

    Solid two-way game. Hard, aggressive forecheck. Fast. Young. Captain. 30 goals on the offensively-challenged Devils; could hit 40 flanking Datsyuk. Gives his all on every shift of every game. He's like Helm with a scoring touch. I agree that some of the numbers from yesterday were reaching ridiculous levels. But the guy's a stud, and he'd provide some things we're sorely lacking in our top-6, no questions asked. Infinitely better than Semin.

    The Pens are coming off a monumental meltdown. They don't play D. MAF was shredded by the Flyers. Parise would be living in the shadows of Crosby and Malkin. He'd essentially be replacing J. Staal as the resident workhorse who does 80% of the forward unit's defensive work and gets no credit. And we can offer more $-wise. And I feel like I've said this 35,000 times now. Sorry for that. But for the life of me, I don't know why so many people seem to think the Pens are a near sure-thing.

    Ah fack, don't let this all fall apart....

    Where the hell is all this Parise hate coming from? Because Pitt.-based talking heads are playing up the Crosby friendship angle we should all just start hating Parise?

    Was hoping for early afternoon decisions. Oh well.

    Still no decision from Suter. Speculation abounds.

    Parise would also be in the mix, in this hypothetical scenario. So, essentially - Subtract Flip & Franzen, Add Parise & Ryan. I'm down with that.

    That, my friend, would be amazing.
  11. Please keep telling me a trade has to be in the works, fellow LGWers. It makes me feel much better. (Not being sarcastic.)

    Highly irregular, of course, but my blood was up! Big day today.
  13. I think that's probably the issue for most. Signing Monster, Brunner, Tootoo, and Sammy is ok, with perhaps a large side order of meh. Signing Monster, Brunner, Tootoo, Sammy, Suter, and Parise/Nash/Ryan/etc.? That'd make Kenny a god.
  14. Sounds like he might've been a fallback plan....

    Now what?

    Man, tomorrow's gonna be interesting.

    Bryan Allen signs with Anaheim

    We've been a little spoiled with offensively gifted defensemen. Ducks sure like their big-bodied blue-liners.

    Now what?

    Parise is a goal-scorer. And he's better than Nash overall. Why does it seem like pratically no one around here knows anything about the guy? Not that I disagree with where you're coming from. Just sayin'.

    St. James: Wings have inquired about Rick Nash

    Parise's a better player overall. And he's no slouch in the goal-scoring department. Think, if he can score 30 goals on the Devils, what could he do with Dats feeding him the puck? I do like the idea of Nash, though.
  19. All I can say is...I hope this means a big trade's in the works.
