Hank Dats 'N Homer 81 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 I was going over to the hawks site just to see what kind of news they were spinning, and i see this http://blackhawks.nhl.com/ I know that i shouldnt be hurt that he left, and i thought i was over it and then i saw this and it brought back some of the pain haha. The only thing that made me feel better was seeing that they seem EXCITED about having Kopecky too hahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Big Red Machine 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) The Hawks will be able to add this to their pile of fail where it will be accompanied by the octopus playoff commercials for this past playoff run. There is no way in hell Kopecky is a top free agent signee. Biggest joke ever. Edited July 2, 2009 by The Big Red Machine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winged_Wheeler 3 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 It's fine. Hossa had to do what he had to do, same with Kopecky. Hossa seems to love Chicago, nice city, good team, good crowd, seems like he hit the jackpot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank Dats 'N Homer 81 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 This made me laugh! I thought people would get a kick out of it...i love how it says "Top Free Agent Signees" and then have a picture of Kopecky. I guess Kopecky was a top free agent since whatever team picked him up knew that Hossa would follow.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank Dats 'N Homer 81 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 I guess they come in pairs now when you sign them? Haha, i guess i would say having to take Kopecky and give him playing time in order to get Hossa to sign wouldnt be worth it, but the history of Kopecky getting injured every year kind of takes away the threat of actually having to play him lol. So i guess its a deal worth making. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

under_par_00 45 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 Guys, let them have the guy with the broken face!! On a serious note, I actually think Kopecky was a decent player and he will do well in Chicago if he can stay injury free. Let me just say he is better than someone like Eager or Ladd.

Winged_Wheeler 3 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 well could this mean that hossa will go without a cup in his career? No, he's there for hell of a long time and Chicago is no doubt a good team. It sucks we're not going to see Hossa lift his first Cup as a Red Wing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank Dats 'N Homer 81 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 well could this mean that hossa will go without a cup in his career? Well they have tremendous scoring ability, but their defense is weak and they really need to improve their goaltending, is 12 years enough for them to do it? Maybe, but they have put themselves in such bad cap trouble it might not be possible. I dont want to be the bitter guy that says "i hope hossa never wins a cup" because there shouldnt have been a shock that he didnt resign with us, but....god i hope he never wins a cup with Chicago. haha. At the rate hes going, he seems to go to teams that he thinks give him the best chance of winning the cup, and those teams never seem to do it. I just dont see Chicago being the team that makes him right finally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
