Kronwall?

WTF? Is someone THAT injured???

[esteef 2,679]

I hope they go after someone with mad scoring potential, like Leino from Philly.

Lebda straight up for Chara. Make it happen Kenny! The cap can go to hell!

Kronwall?

I really hope not, but who else could it even be?

That sucks.

Kronwall?

Well this whole trade deadline thing went from a high to a low in a hurry. If it is Kronwall then getting Lilja back is definitely not going to make up for that. But if it was Kronwall going on LTI then why would May have to be waived aswell?

[ShanahanMan 473]

Dude......I cant believe we have a player who has a long term injury.....AGAIN.

I mean, they have to be actually injured to put them on LTI right?

[stevkrause 1,247]

WTF? Is someone THAT injured???

ugh... not again Kronwall... he's the only one out with enough cap to make that happen...

[e_prime 1,936]

That seems to be the way things have gone with most of the trades lately.

You mean like how Philly dressed Leino, and we dressed Tollefson.

[ShanahanMan 473]

ugh.....looks like today is gonna end up being a dud afterall. Really had my hopes up for some big changes.....

Could be just LTI for the olympics.....LTI is based on time, not games played correct?

Kronwall?

well there goes the idea of anything important happening... Kronwall, geeze

[VM1138 1,921]

So really all we know for sure is that of all the players that are 100% safe are Lilja, Eaves, and Kronwall, correct? Injured players can't be traded, right? Or does that only apply to LTIR, in which case Kronwall would be safe?

If he was going to be back right after the olympics, they would be dump players now anyway though, as they would have to do it anyway once Kronwall comes back.

No....this means someone is very injured.

This doesn't necessarily mean that something can't happen, but it certainly puts a damper on the day.

I dont know for sure.. but I believe a players injury status does not have any effect on if they can be traded or not..

[Guest Howard He Do It?!]

Florida canceled their practice today.

[CMatt89 63]

what big changes were people preparing for? The guys that are tradeable have NTC's and then we have a bunch of odds and ends that no one would want. I don't know what the build up was for. Now that someone is on LTIR, we don't have to make moves till the deadline, which means Lebda will be moved. Big changes? Not until the offseason.

[esteef 2,679]

Why would all those scouts be at the game if Holland's plan all along was to waive May and place Kronner on LTIR? Something's up folks!

Maybe the 10 teams wanted to see if May was worth claiming.

[Guest Howard He Do It?!]

I went from nervous excited to "What the f***?"

[stevkrause 1,247]

not true - 24 days, or 10 games - 24 days would take us through most of the Olympics and give Holland more time to think about the trade(s) and Kronwall could be back shortly after the olympics... might be a very smart move...

[scotzman 29]

May didn't play last night, did he?

I'm betting people were there to see J-Willy...

^ That.
