    Tampa Bay signs UFA goaltender Olaf Kolzig

    As the poster said, "There is no D in Gonchar." I'm in total agreement with you. As I said earlier, there 08/09 slogan has to be something along the lines of: "You may score 6 against us, but we're gonna try for 7."

    $20M for Sundin?

    I'm sorry, but that's a horrible thing to say given that the situations are completely opposite. Sundin is under no obligation to anyone, including the Leafs. Neids was (and still is) contracted by the Ducks. If there's one thing Mats has never done to his franchise, it threaten to harm them. Unless you think his loyalty and desire to win the Cup the hard way is reason to fault him for not waiving his NTC.

    Wings sign Conklin: 1-year, $750K

    One fan on HFboards had the best nickname for Conklin I've ever heard: ConkBlock :rotflmao: Talk about working on two levels!

    Columbus signs UFA defenceman Mike Commodore

    Another big signing for CBJ.

    Chicago signs Brian Campbell

    Actually, they are now just under $2 million over the cap: $58.608 million. Either way, they'll have to move Khabi.

    Chicago signs Brian Campbell

    $7.1 per.....that's nuts! Overpayment, but Chicago is going to be better. Time to move Khabi. Edit: (Tori) Spelling

    Chicago signs Cristobal Huet $5.6M/yr 4 years

    Well, the Kings actually have the room for it. You gotta wonder what return they'll get now that LA knows Chicago's hands are tied with the money they have tied up in goaltending.

    Hossa prefers Detroit?

    For who?

    Hossa prefers Detroit?

    I was strictly talking this season....meaning a one year deal to any big UFA offensive signing. Z's impending contract (and Franzens for that matter) have nothing to do with it.

    Hossa prefers Detroit?

    Without Filppula signed, the Wings currently have $11.43 million left. That includes 10 on offense, 7 Dmen and both Oz and Conklin.

    Hossa prefers Detroit?

    Hossa for $5 million per. Get it done, Kenny! Seriously though, if there's any team that its known you take a paycut to play for, its Detroit.

    Capitals sign Jose Theodore to 2-year contract

    Extra shipment of Propecia to Washington: e5

    Chicago signs Cristobal Huet $5.6M/yr 4 years

    IMO, not a chance. Everyone will let him go through and then when he becomes an UFA the Blackhawks will be stuck absorbing $2.25 million on nobody. Edit: (Tori) Spelling

    Salvador re signs.....Thank God for lilypads!

    Hey, I wasn't ripping. Just stating that there was a time that Lilja played top-line minutes. Lilja's great in his role. I've said that over and over.

    Salvador re signs.....Thank God for lilypads!

    You're forgetting Fisch going down as well earlier in the season. Kronwall didn't go down until later than that even.

    Salvador re signs.....Thank God for lilypads!

    Given the weakness of the Devils and the Blues D he still put up a +12, which is my point. Look, I know what you're saying, but I just don't think he's overpaid a gross amount like you do. Good debate, but I think we'll have to end it there. Cheers, NFM#25

    Wings sign Conklin: 1-year, $750K

    I would assume Maj was talking about Conklin-level of goaltenders, not elite tenders like Hasek. Besides, correct me if I'm wrong but Dom was nothing short of great in the locker room after he was benched in Game 4 of the Nashville series.

    Salvador re signs.....Thank God for lilypads!

    But he's not on the Wings. That's the point. The Wings are the deepest defensive team in the NHL, and every other team would kill to have what Detroit has on the blue line. Instead they have to make due the best they can with whats available. Not every team can have Lidstrom for an incredible home-town discount, Kronwall for now what looks like a steal, a happy-to-be home Rafalski and now Stuart at a bargain.

    You mean like two years ago?

    Chicago signs Cristobal Huet $5.6M/yr 4 years

    Why? What do you have against Huet?
  22. NeverForgetMac25

    Chicago signs Cristobal Huet $5.6M/yr 4 years

    WTF are they going to do with Khabi? Nobody will take that contract off his hands and if he does sign for $5.6, he and Khabi will be pulling in almost 22% of the teams' salary cap. Khabi getting cut?

    Salvador re signs.....Thank God for lilypads!

    TBH, I'm not saying that Salvador is great, or that he isn't slightly overpaid, but I just don't feel its as ridiculous as you seem to. The cap has gone up, and everyone's price has gone with it. Perhaps its a little bit of an overpayment but it isn't a ton. The guy is much better than Lilja and deserves to be making more accordingly.

    Wings sign Conklin: 1-year, $750K

    And the best part is, its a slight kick in the nuts to Therrien and the Pens.
  25. NeverForgetMac25

    Wings sign Conklin: 1-year, $750K

    So this makes 10 offensemen, 7 Dmen and two solid goalies for $45.27 million, with only Flip being the major player yet to re-sign, and at this point giving the Wings $11.43 million left to spend. ******* MARRY ME KENNY!
