    Sharks sign RFA Niklas Hjalmarsson

    And to think, Lebda got 1.45 mil a year.

    Antti Niemi files for arbitration

    I didn't read through all the posts, but does anyone know when his arbitration hearing is? I'm really excited for the outcome of that.

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    Modano is holding a 1 hour special on NBC tomorrow night 9pm to make his decision.

    So Franzen was the best player in the playoffs

    In retrospect, I'm really happy my wife thought Franzen was my favorite player and bought me his jersey when really, Zetts was my favorite.

    Antti Niemi files for arbitration

    If teams were so anxious to sign a goalie to a big contract, why wouldn't they have signed Nabakov (besides the fact he might have been asking for too much)? He is definitely more proven then Niemi, minus the whole winning the cup thing. Although he didn't exactly play stellar in the finals but did the job.

    Brett Lebda signs with Toronto

    I think Lebda fits the Burkie mold very well. Tough, physical. Wait a second...

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    Just drop a wings jersey and skates hanging on the wall into a tank with Paul the Octopus. He'll make the right decision.

    Nabokov leaves the NHL, signs with KHL

    He wasn't going to get paid in the NHL anyways. Enjoy Russia. Actually, Russia enjoys you.

    Red Wings Making Play for Modano

    I feel like this thread has hit a cyclical argument where the same people are throwing the same arguments back and forth, just phrased differently.

    I don't see him overtaking Hull either. Surprised he hasn't been mentioned at all in the side discussion of great american hockey players.

    Bob Probert passes away at 45

    Agreed. That would be very fitting.

    Bob Probert passes away at 45

    Read ESPNs article http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=5356462 Now I know Probie had his problems, but after the man dies, is it really necessary to run the story and have the first three points in the article be those indiscretions? I haven't read any other articles on his death, so I could be overreacting, but am I wrong in being super pissed about this? RIP Probie

    I mean honestly, who right now is looking for a starting goaltender that has the cap space to give Nabby what he wants? Same goes for Turdco I guess.

    I don't follow the NBA much but I remember that dude. TSN is reporting 34 over 5 years, not 6. that makes it worse haha. You want to talk about a league not being in touch with reality? Darko got 20 mil over 4 years today. That'd be like giving Boogard 1.6 mil a year. Oh wait..

    I have a suspicion that Kovy may end up in the KHL. I bet he's demanding fat cash, especially after some of the ridiculous deals that went down today. Boogy's contract makes Kovy worth 25 a year

    Really wish Koivu would have gone to Minnesota. I like him and I hate seeing him in a Ducks uniform.

    Anyone think Modano will head to Detroit? I'd be okay with that pickup.

    People love to bring in new faces, big faces at that. Come May though, they'll appreciate the fact that Kenny didn't strap us with some stupid overpaid underachiever, which I assume will happen to many this year. Then it will be the same thing all over again next July.

    Depending on what we give Modano, I might be okay with it. Play on the third line, give us some secondary scoring which we surely lacked last year.

    Don't worry I'll sleep fine. Almost 10 minutes apart between those posts, just sayin' man. I apologize for not understanding that your computer froze.

    You posted this comment twice. Clearly, your goal here is to argue with someone about Holland not doing anything.

    Versteeg a Leaf

    I mean the Hawks are going to be a good team next year. The thing that made them so good this year was their depth. Next year their depth is going to hinge on AHLers/fringe NHLers/undeveloped prospects. Any injuries to key players could kill this team. I expect them to surely come back to the pack unless some of these young unproven guys really step up. It will be interesting.

    Det possibly interested in Nabby?

    I think we're set at left-field. We have alot of talent in Grand Rapids ready to take over out there if needed.
