    Holland Appreciation Thread

    Ehrhoff and Wisniewski got monster contracts. I think that the moves Kenny hasn't made speaks volumes. Lots of teams scrambling, adding bulls*** pieces that won't necessarily help their cause. At this point Kenny looks cerebral. He now has $13mil to spend on 3 or 4 players. More if this Hudler deal comes through somehow. That's not an accident. Big moves are coming, they just haven't come yet.

    PHI signs Andreas Lilja

    That's because there isn't one.

    Jovanovski signs with Panthers

    Thank goodness. His old dusty ass is right where it belongs.

    Jagr signs 1-year deal with the Flyers

    The Lets Go Pens board is in full meltdown mode. Good to see some of their s***ty fans support the s***tiest player in the NHL.

    Jagr signs 1-year deal with the Flyers

    The Fourth Period is reporting it, too.

    No, No, NO! Jagr interested in Detroit.

    He actually did! I really hope it's true and not another reporter fooled. Haha.

    Red Wings trying to move Jiri Hudler

    Gotcha. I misread the tone of your post. I wouldn't mind pursuing either of those fellows.

    Red Wings trying to move Jiri Hudler

    Seems like a heavy load for Bouwmeester's giant contract and the 3 goals he scored last year.

    Jackets sign Wisniewski: 6-years $33-million ($5.5m/yr)

    To be fair, it's not like Wisniewski has ever punished us before. Big boost for CBJ, but the sky is hardly falling. I was all about Wiz towards the end there, and was even hoping for Ehrhoff - but not for the years or totals they received.

    Wings re-sign Ericsson to 3-year, $9.75m contract

    The price is inflated and an overpayment by easily a million, but that's the reality of the new NHL with the Salary Cap going up. It's not like players are going to take the same money with a higher ceiling available. I support Big E as he remains a Wing, even if I'd be happy to see him walk. He needs to get serious about his role with the team, though.

    Wings re-sign Miller to 2-year, $1.65m contract

    This probably unofficially closes the door on Draper, but I'm okay with Miller. Especially at that price tag.

    Patrick Eaves Watch Thread.

    Well if 'progress' meant Ericsson signing, hopefully it means the same for Patty.

    Shane O'Brien

    Sorry if this has already been posted in one of the other threads, I've been away all day. Is there any interest in the signing of Shane O'Brien? I'm not terribly familiar with him. I know he plays with an edge and scored on his own team as a Canuck. Could he fill the 5th slot on the D? Would bring some size and grit.
  15. There's probably a thread that's suitable for this a post instead of a new topic, but it'll be posted no doubt. Christian Ehrhoff has walked away from Vancouver's contract offer and will likely be headed to free agency, per Bob McKenzie. They are now shopping his rights.

    Ryan Smyth requests trade to Edmonton

    Word is he's got an unhealed fracture that will require surgery and cost him 4 months.

    2011 MLB Season Thread

    Leyland must read the board. Coke is being moved back into the bullpen where he can be a successful middle relief man. He was great there last season, and I have no doubt he will do the same from here on out. In even better news, Daniel Schlereth's worthless arm has been optioned to AAA. At this point, he should probably be playing single-A ball.

    Changes in the offseason

    The rights to Montador have been traded to the Blackhawks.

    2011 MLB Season Thread

    Polanco would be incredible right now. Too bad the bloated contracts of Robertson, Bonderman, and Willis tied us up. We need a real second baseman. As much as I love Ramon, he's not the answer either. We need to move some pieces if we want to truly contend. If we had a solid piece at the 4 we could have a truly explosive line-up.

    Kieth Yandle

    umad bro? As has previously been stated, no one is disputing the fact that Holland isn't going to offer sheet Yandle. And yes, your attitude is still getting in the way.
  21. Travis

    No, No, NO! Jagr interested in Detroit.

    I get what you're trying to get at, no need to worry about that.

    Kieth Yandle

    I think he was referring more to the tone of your post as opposed to what it is you actually said. Also, it's capice.
  23. Travis

    No, No, NO! Jagr interested in Detroit.

    How is 3 mil justified overpayment for a 39 year old forward?
