Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 Like someone said in another thread, Arbitration for Ryder and Avery would be better then signing a UFA now. If not one of them, Wait till the deadline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Superman54 91 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 Yashin He looks like he is DYING. You'd think he is as old as Chelios in that picture! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
superstarsingh 23 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 Yashin. I become more intruiged by him each day. I kind of want to see him as a Wing....but at the same time I know its WRONG to think about signing such a malignant man who is worse off than Langer was. Lets just say the thought of Yashin as a Wing is my guilty pleasure in a sense. He should play for free, he's already getting UNDESERVED money from the Isles. Forgive me for these foolish thoughts of mine guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superman54 91 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 Like someone said in another thread, Arbitration for Ryder and Avery would be better then signing a UFA now. If not one of them, Wait till the deadline. Off topic here but I see your from Calgary, well me too. Though Im sad to see you have a picture of Gelinias in Calgary as your DP. Now I know you like him and thats the reason but he was the man that killed my spirits for a very long time. You see I was at game 6 in 2004 right behind Joseph when Gelinias put the puck past him (In fact in some pictures you can see my wings jersey). I still see it in my dreams at times.......Anyways I was just hoping if you could find him in a different picture when he was with Carolina or something, if thats not too much to ask. As you probably know, I have to see too much of the Flames everyday, and Letsgowings.com is the one place I know I can get away from them and do not have to see the C. I just have a true hatred for that team, and it would make me feel a lot better.Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 Like someone said in another thread, Arbitration for Ryder and Avery would be better then signing a UFA now. If not one of them, Wait till the deadline. Ryder or Avery would be frickin sick, but I wouldnt hold my breath. Not because I dont think Holland would get them if offered the chance, but I just dont see either team looking to let one go, even with Arbitration coming up. Avery has a home in New York now, and Ryder is only 27 and, in his 3 seasons in the league, has scored 25, 30, and 30. I dont think the Habs will take that hit in their scoring.

Guest Canadian Wings Report post Posted July 9, 2007 Avery!?!? Two words: Michael Peca Yashin. I become more intruiged by him each day. I kind of want to see him as a Wing....but at the same time I know its WRONG to think about signing such a malignant man who is worse off than Langer was. Lets just say the thought of Yashin as a Wing is my guilty pleasure in a sense. He should play for free, he's already getting UNDESERVED money from the Isles. Forgive me for these foolish thoughts of mine guys. Yashin will make your team more "talented", Yashin will not win you a Stanley Cup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 Oddly enough, before free agency started I kept envisioning Yashin in a Wings jersey. Not because I want him to become a Wing, but because I just see it happening. But for 4 million? Hell no. Ryder or Avery would be frickin sick, but I wouldnt hold my breath. Not because I dont think Holland would get them if offered the chance, but I just dont see either team looking to let one go, even with Arbitration coming up. Avery has a home in New York now, and Ryder is only 27 and, in his 3 seasons in the league, has scored 25, 30, and 30. I dont think the Habs will take that hit in their scoring. Aves would be great, and Kenny would bring him back in a heartbeat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 p.s. yashin sucks (peca jus told me) Oh come now. Everyone knows Yashin and Peca are great friends. They just did that whole media hate thing because the Islanders were always getting knocked out in the first round, and wanted the team to continue to have media attention, even during the offseason.

eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 I wouldn't mind Yashin, but not for 4m. If Yashin could be had for around 2m, I think it's a gamble worth taking. On his worst day, he's an upgrade over Lang. We wouldn't live and die with his scoring, which would take some pressure off him. As a secondary threat, his ego wouldn't be nearly as unmanageable. Yashin was a perfect team player who didn't cause locker room problems in NYI, there's no reason to believe that couldn't continue in Detroit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
