calfan 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2008 Agreed with you about the deadline issue. But he is right about guys like Selanne, Niedermayer and now Forsberg coming back just for the playoffs is complete bulls*** IMO. And it needs to be taken care of. Kinda like DMac eh?

alienanxiety 23 Report post Posted February 26, 2008 Kinda like DMac eh? Yes, exactly like D-mac. He has no business in the NHL this year either. I see the point some have made that moving the trade dealine to early January would take away from deadline day ~ but I don't really llike the idea of rental players anyway. it feels cheap to me. a team should struggle through the season together. i think a big part f it is the idea of a player being a rental and then going back to his original team. perhaps if they put in a rule, where the player cannot return to the team that traded him the following year, sort of like the rule when they gave teams a chance to buy out players after the lockout, then maybe the deadline day would seem a but more legit. also, the thing with forsberg is HE STILL isn't sure when he will be ready, if at all. he just signed the contract IN CASE he can play at some point.
