    Devils sign Arron Asham

    That sucks , he'd be better then Kopecky or Samulesson. One of these days we'll get someone.

    Holland Speaks About Offer Sheets

    I cant beleive I forgot Chris Dingman! I used to like him back in 04. Does he still play in the NHL? I havent heard anything about him in a while. My point was , you need tough players to win cups. Everyone I named was a tough player. Most of the runner ups for the stanley cup had tough players. You dont need to be a cavemen, but being able to drop the gloves and still play the game is important to teams morale and if they feel safe when there playing. Zetterberg and Datsyuk felt safer with Holmstrom on there line , imagine if they had a guy like Asham or Neil playing on there team? (I know we wont get Neil , just throwing out a name) 925000 per year. So yes , I'd give Asham that

    Burke's gaff

    Other then the last 2 , when we picked up Ulfie, Wendal and Chelios in 99 , I thought we were gonna win the cup. If we had had Konstatinov in 99 we definately wouldve won the cup. Bertuzzi , I've always been a fan of and was happy to see we got him for such a small price. if only he'd be healthy and didnt want boatloads. The deadlines are always so fun , Im definately staying home from school to watch the deadline this year!

    Arron Asham , 2 yrs 1.85 million. Done and Done.

    Nick Would Play For Less

    So Nick would take 4-5 million, so we can lock up Zetterberg and Cleary longterm, and still have money for FA's. Sounds good. But I disagree with Nick, I'd much rather have Sundin then Forsberg.

    Holland Speaks About Offer Sheets

    Because guys like McCarty and Joe Kocur never stepped it up in the playoffs right? To win the stanley cup , you need some kind of enforcer. Look at Anaheim , hell Carolina has Craig Adams , Tampa had Andre Roy , New Jersey had Oliwa , we had McCarty and Avery , the avs had Scott Parker , NJ had Oliwa , The Stars had Craig Ludwig and a couple other guys , we had Kocur , Lapointe , McCarty back in the glory days. Im not saying , go sign a caveman that plays 15 seconds a night and gets 3000 PIMS a season. I want someone who can play the game , a guy like Asham who is still avaiable. Drake was a step in the right direction , but getting tougher players makes other players play tougher. Look what happened to Datsyuk and Zetterberg when they stuck Homer on the line , they started finishing checks and using there body.

    Meech & Markov

    I dont know if Im the first to ask , but what has Markov done to warrant getting 4-5 million a year? Playing with Lidstrom? because if so , Chelios deserves that kinda money too. Good about Meech , I hope he gets a 2-way deal though , it'd be better for him to get some time in the minors

    Rumor: Ducks won't match offer for Penner

    Gotta agree. I forget Kronwall is even on the team sometimes whenever I play 07 because I never have him on the team. Hes injured so often , I mean , everytime you change the channel he gets a new injury. He handles the puck terribly and is as prone to mistakes as McCabe or Breisbois, though he doesnt make as many as them. Schnieder was the signifcant lose we had. Stupid freak injuries , if we had had Matty we couldve beaten the ducks. I wish we could go back , healthy team vs healthy team. I say we beat them in 6 games.

    Are The Ducks Really In Bad Shape?

    Kunitz-Mcdonald-Selanne (if he comes back) Perry-Getzlaf-Bertuzzi Niedermayer-Pahlson-Moen Lacouture-King-May Parros Niedermayer(if he comes back)-Beachemin Pronger-Schnieder Jackman-Hnidy Giggy Bryzz Not to shabby. I think there fine , that defence is scary

    Raise for Avery, Rangers have accepted.

    Damnit to hell! I wanted Ryder or Avery and now both are signed, this stinks. But good for Sean , he definately deserves more though

    Rumor: Ducks won't match offer for Penner

    AH! Good to be back posting. I think this is , as much as I hate to say, a good deal for the Oil. They needed a gritty forward who scores goals , they wont be terrible this season. As for Anaheim , there fine. If Selanne and Niedermayer dont retire , there golden. If they do , they wont be terrible still 2nd or 3rd in the conference. Cant wait to hear Burkie whining about this one

    Kyle Quincey on OTR again today.

    Its on right now , if you dont have tsn , you can go to tsn.ca and watch it. Man , this is the 3rd time Kyles been on there , they must really like him They just gave a "Quirkey Fact" about Landsberg and Quincey. Kyles mother golfs with Landsberg Quinceys a pretty funny guy , and when Landsberg asked him if we could beat the Sens he said Yes we wouldve. I agree with him on that!

    Roenick not retiring.......yet

    He's also got a physical edge and Detroit needs someone with chrasima. He can teach our guys how to dance! Plus arent him and Cheli best buds?

    Kyle Quincey on OTR again today.

    I love how a thread about Quincey being on a sportsshow turned into a talk about Firefox I have no problem with it as I dont have Firefox

    Roenick not retiring.......yet

    How do you know? and his clashing with coaches hasent stopped him from having a HOF career.
  17. Detroit # 1 Fan

    Elkund says these players are on the Detroit radar.

    Asham and Cairns?

    Eklund says Wings are interested in Josef Melichar

    6th/7th defenceman. No thanks , Lilja is much better
  19. Detroit # 1 Fan

    Roenick not retiring.......yet

    I'd take him. We can get him the cup and the 500 goals
  20. Detroit # 1 Fan

    Check out Peklund! The Anti-Eklund!

    Scott Niedermayer is telling people who work in restaurants that he is seriously considering playing for the Toronto Blue Jays this season. Ducks GM Brian Burke told me "He's earned the right to do whatever the hell it is he wants. If this player comes to me and wants to play baseball, mud wrestle or listen to Mozart music wearing weird wigs then the Anaheim Ducks will support him 100%." P1 HAHAHAHAHAHA.

    I had to chuckle

    Khabibulan isnt even that good anymore. He's sucked in both seasons with the Hawks and I see no reason to think he'll be better when they traded away there best defenceman for Zyuzin who is a 6th/7th d-man who will probably play with Barker or Seabrook in a role he cant handle.

    Exelby Re-Signs

    s***. Well , Minnesota still hasent signed Foster, I'd take him too.

    Sens deal Schaefer to Bruins for Donovan

    Murray made a great deal. Donovan is the hardest worker in the NHL. Shean Donovan-Mike Fisher-Chris Neil ... wow

    D-Mac

    Thats actually a very realistic trade!

    Elkund says these players are on the Detroit radar.

    Markov, Forsberg, McCarty. Sopel and Lindros are drawing Detroits interest too.
