zetterbergfuturemvp 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 i guess its pretty safe to say now that lang and schneider wont be back , especially if we wanna sign calder and bertuzzi which id rather have ...........just wonder if lang knowing he wont be back will make him play even worse in the playoffs then he already is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraperFan MN 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 I think I would like to see this deal closer to the $6M number than the $7M number....but other than that, I like the deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow47 1 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 Yep, they re-signed Rick DiPietro to a 15 year deal It will be ironic if after signing a 15 year deal Ricky D has to retire due to his concussion issues. Cha$$$$$$$$Ching! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingNutt 12 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 (edited) This is tru - LGW had it first! You are welcome! This is Awesome , Made my day. Tell Pavel that he made the right choice. and I am going to drink lots and lots of Vodka tonight to celebrate him resigning with the team. Like someone else said, Dats is signed again, Now its time to concentrate on bringing Stanley back to Detroit. Edited April 6, 2007 by WingNutt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Use some common sense. He's probably not going to be back after this season, so why wouldn't he want to work his ass off in the playoffs to prove his worth to the rest of the league, and get a decent paycheck?

My word, the guy is a horse's pitoot every time he opens his mouth. If I were McGuire, I would never let Hull live that comment down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
