What was the contract we tried to get Bert to sign? one yr 3 mill? i dont kno but yah live and learn ...I wouldnt dish out anything over 2 mill for the guy unless he agreed to the insentive bonuses.. games played .. post season play yada yada .. makes sense to me not to bite on anything over that for a injury ridden once was .. big bert changed my mind frame on that

So it's pretty obvious we need defensive depth ... who's even available for picks or prospects? marek malik brad stuart rob blake Aaron Ward brain campbell Adam foote Mike Commadore joe corvo Jovo Cop dan boyle anyone on the leafs d core i doubt a couple of those names would go for prospects n picks but who knows who or what kenny is goin to give up.. Huds Ellis Sammy ?

the one in the wings jersey .. look how fricken young he looks ... our boy has turned into a man

is the CHL as boring as watching NCAA hockey?

Flip wont/cant demand that much until he's a proven skater. Sometimes he looks like a teenager who just hit puberty and is clumbsy in and around the boards. He can draw a penelty every so often but he still cant seem to come away with the puck like cleary can in tight. Give him another 2-3 yrs and hell pry be worth 3-4 mill a yr. but by then the cap will change yada yada yada.. but it would be a drag to lose Cleary and i dont blame him for not signin right away

here's a article about how Trashville exploits its fan's and Detroit with their "premmium tickets" Predators unlikely to sell out Detroit game thanks in part to 'variable pricing' Posted by George James Malik December 10, 2007 10:41AM The Nashville Predators have been having trouble filling their arena to an NHL revenue-sharing-qualifying 13,125 paid tickets per game. They'll continue to struggle to fill the Sommet Center vs. the Detroit Red Wings, despite the Wings' tremendous drawing power as the Predators' biggest "rival," because Nashville charges its non-season ticket-holding fans a significant premium to attend what they call a "premium-plus" game: December 10, Tennessean: When the Predators hit the Sommet Center ice tonight against the archrival Detroit Red Wings, they're unlikely to do so in front of a sellout crowd. But the game may still wind up being one of the team's top moneymakers of the season thanks to a system that puts higher prices on tickets to the best, most popular games. Although the Predators hope variable pricing helps increase ticket revenue, it may wind up hurting attendance by turning off some fans at a critical point in the team's history. This is the second season the franchise has utilized variable pricing, which divides home games into three categories based on perceived demand. There are 20 non-premium games (lowest prices), 16 premium games and five premium-plus games (highest prices). ... The concept has been hotly debated among Predators fans, some of whom don't like paying more for more popular games, especially when the team is trying to reach an average of 14,000 paid fans per game to keep its current lease with the city intact. For instance, the overall attendance at the previous Detroit home game this season -- the first premium-plus game of the season -- was 14,346 (13,608 paid). That's a noticeable dip from most past home games against the Wings, which were usually either sold out or close to it in 17,113-seat Sommet Center. "I understand what the concept is supposed to be, that it's supposed to drive people toward buying ticket full or partial season ticket packages. But overall, I give it a thumbs down," said Dennis Pepperack, a former season ticket holder who now goes to about 10 or 12 games per season. So why cant Detroit charge less for tickets when Trashville comes up here? lol

Bates is the grandson of Chicago Outfit don Sam Battaglia. He was an American mobster and high level member of the Chicago Outfit.

for god sakes just come up with a better slogan than FIRE ON ICE!!! get to it steve

yaeh in business talk it makes sense but come on now .. your team has no big star players to draw in people and the one chance you get those big names on the ice you charge more? that would piss me the hell off .. their franchise is already in turmoil with the ownership crap going on and you expect people to pay more when the cool kids come to town

yah eklund is a joke .. my "source' is telling me something big is going on in MTL .. possibly SJ and MTL im not sure .. stay tuned for details .. also i like when he says his "source" wont release names or ANY other info at this time .. OR the best one i see everyother day is Yah OTT and TOR had a trade in place but it never went down b/c they couldnt reach an amount

yah you gotta love the high pitched SCORES! from ken .. and the trivia he lays on paul is entertaining

thanks allot guys .. i was just watchin hank get smeered with shaving cream from drapes .. finally we get to see inside the locker rooms and get a better idea of their personalitys

what in the hell is redwings tv and how do i get it ... i havent been living under a rock and i watch redwings weekly, live , and games but never heard of this ... link me plz

holy s*** lidstrom is killin it 60% .. hahha .. just name the damn trophy after him .. hanks got a slim margain over Vinny ... nice to see ozzie in 2nd ...

with drake only signing a one contract that expires after this yr id say mac fits that role for next season ... i mean a 100% healthy Mac is going to do us a way hell of allot more than a 100% drake .... maybe even sign him this yr and assign him to gr for conditioning .. come playoffs who knows who is going to be healthy ... but thats a long shot .. hes going to be a bargain deal if he can overcome injury and stick around for 2-3 more yrs

screw jagr ... hell demand to much for what hes worth .. lang and bert got 4 mill jagr will pry seek like $5.5-6.5 ... which is ridiculous i know but come on now we know that there is going to be a desperate team that might even pay him 7+ .. save those dollars and just pick up feds for like 3.5? sounds reasonable
