Legacy19 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2009 I have a quick question for you guys, since i'm way too bummed to go to bed i'll just sit and think. First off i love mesome Hossa, I think his talent was over looked this playoffs because he was forced into a defensive role however looking long term i was thinking about letting Hossa walk and bringing in a younger (and dare i say more explosive) Marian Gaborik. He's younger, from what i've seen faster, and i think he would be a great fit. Plus I'd rather lock him up for 7 years than Hossa... Thoughts? ps last i herd talks with minnie were going well but so was Hossa's with Pitt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zion 93 Report post Posted June 13, 2009 No. Get us some strong, lunchpail-type players who can win in the corners against Anaheim and against a free-reign Gill and Orpik. $7.45 million can buy some good guys... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Selke13 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2009 i would not mind seeing gaborik on the wings either, despite him being injury prone, atleast hell have a reason for a disappearance. i liked the idea of the hossa signing, but not sure if i like seeing so many first liners on a team. someones production has got to drop, it didnt during the regular season so much but definately in the playoffs (even against 3 and 4 dmen).

Pat 44 Report post Posted June 13, 2009 so he can play 13 regular season games and play 1 playoff game then get injured again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dany Heatly lunch pail enough for you? He'd be a great fit on our team. I would love to see Marian stay but, I thought he was so good in so many ways but he came up bone dry when we needed his offense most! I still like him but its true.

Before Risebourough got fired, they had deteriorated into nonexistent. They haven't really started with Fletcher yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wings5gal 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2009 Well, supposedly, he won't be injury prone after this season now that he's been surgically repaired. On both hips now. And, well, after spending the majority of the season in IR, he isn't worth what he thinks he it. Honestly, the Wild will offer him the best contract, simply based on the fact that he's spent his career there and they know what he can do healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So you'd rather have someone who will be well-and-truly worthless---injured---than someone who will be around but may produce less at times? Odd logic.

Uh, this thread is about Marian Gaborik if you actually read the post... And I can almost guarantee that Gaborik will be on the Wild next season. If the Wings let Hossa go, hopefully the Wild can make him an offer. Then I can at least still cheer for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swiss_fan 3 Report post Posted June 15, 2009 Not. at . all What if Gaborik would be willing to take a one or 2 year deal for the sake of making much much more money than he can now after? You would be all high on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeowingsfan 16 Report post Posted June 15, 2009 If he took a less than a million deal than yes, but he won't and he's injury prone so no thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
