Put him on the same line with any of Lucic/Horton/Clowe/Hartnell/Backes...etc... and he will be effective

Suddenly we become just better...

Tva sports reported during Hamilton-Toronto game Toronto should send Bozak, Frattin and draft pick... to be annonced on Thursday...

...and the funny part is that I wanted Hossa to stay instead of Franzen...

Nyquist and Tatar will have to prove that they can compete in the NHL. Let'S not start another false hype over Nyquist and Tatar... just like was case with Leino and that other player who ended up in Tampa... Give all needed time to Nyquist to developpe and then we can compare him with Franzen.

Franzen is our best goal scorer (I hope that Brunner could be 30 goal scorer in the regular 82 games season)... and it's not like he has no trading value... So suggesting that Franzen is buyout candidat is just STUPID.

Tootoo will be fun to watch... It's gonna be FUN to watch Tootoo vs. St-Louis, Vancouver, Chicago (Carcillo be aware, Tootoo train is coming for you...)

Tootoo - Reaves anyone?

Arnott do Detroit - really?

They also reported that Canucks will carry part of Luongo salary. 2nd draft puck I agree with you

Harold, there is nothing official cause nobody can be traded or signed until the new CBA is signed that's why it will be official on thursday. It seems that Frattin is not in the lineup for tonights game

Reported by Yvon Pedneault...

Edmonton for the same reasons as Zombo said. Edmonton for the same reasons as Zombo said. Better get used to Carlo's injuries...

This I would like to add that Kenny will still be looking for the top 2 DEF... and you can't add it with $3m cap space

Maybe because of:1. Six months ago Salary Cap was over $70M 2. Now, there will be couple of better options for Def (which Holland needs to improve) 3. With lower salary cap it would be STUPID to keep Sammy when you have Brunner which will have to play with Z on the second line. Everything has CHANGED since this summer

At least NHL should offer Center Ice for FREE for "whole" season.

SAMMY Then go after a trur 4th line center and a DEF... Sammy needs to go.

Yes, now Kenny has a chance to buyout Sammy and pick up a true 4th line center and even another D.

This is how I see it: They (players) are looking for a new 5 year deal. (This is completly BS - they should more look at 10 years). According to Fehr (http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=409972), the gap is about $180 millions. Now, let's divide the gap ($180 mil.) with 5 (years new deal) it's a differential of $36 millions per year. There are approx. 700 players in NHL, let's divide $36 millions by 700, we have a differential of $51 428,00 per player/per year. Average salary in NHL is about $2.4 millions (http://ca.sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=ycn-10423863) so I guess that $51 428,00 (a little bit more than 2% of their respective salary) is not that big deal... but then again, I'm just a hockey fan... who cares about hockey fans today?

As much as I like him as a player... he's overpaid... I guess Tyler Seguin should get around $7.5M

Eaves, Brunner?????

I hope that Brunner gets the REAL chance to prove if he's or not top 6 forward. I don't know why but I think that Brunner will be a GREAT addition.

Barker or Gilroy and Vandermeer... What would be asking price for Bogosian, Kulikov? Gilroy is way better than Lebda
