RedLightGoesOn 81 Report post Posted May 4, 2010 Niemi Boucher I will agree with Niemi and Boucher, but Boucher has had some clutch saves to his credit. Jimmy is still better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wombat 26 Report post Posted May 4, 2010 I picked McCollum. I think Howard has been great this season... but as said before by gcom, the NHL is littered with goalies that start out great and then completely burn out in a couple years. Hopefully Howard continues an upward ascent. I went with McCollum because he is probably a better ranked prospect at his age compared to Howard at the same age. Still, I'd love Howard to continue what he started this year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Off the Post 11 Report post Posted May 4, 2010 Trading Fil to Montreal for Price would just straight up be stupid. He's been pretty impressive all year and Howard has outplayed price all year with a half-injured team?! What are you guys thinking... where is the logic?

Guest mindfly Report post Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) I doubt Filppula will be one of them rare highly skilled franchise finns like Mikko Koivu.. I just can't see Flip anywhere near "superstar" status... Edited May 4, 2010 by mindfly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king_malice 17 Report post Posted May 4, 2010 Being from Hamilton i got to watch Price play alot, Hamilton is like the Wings there is always questions about goalies but not to much pressure, they always say Osgood/Howard couldn't get wins but they always ebd up pulling them out. Ive been saying for a couple years now that Price would fit in good with the Wings there is way to much pressure in Montreal on goalies they think/want all there goalies to be the next Dryden/Roy and when they arent that good they wanna kill the goalie. With the Wings we never needed that all-star goalie just a goalie that could make that save when the other team finally can get one, and i think Price is that type of goalie. I actually think Flip is more then enough for Price, he hasnt done so good this year and last year was a little bit better. I think we could probably send a prospect and a couple picks To Habs- Emmerton or McGrath 1st round pick,3rd Round pick,5th round pick To Wings- Price You also have to consider Flip is going to be a better NHL player then Price will be, and the Habs are probably more interested in getting prospects and picks over a NHL player now, kinda same type of deal between NJ and ATL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mindfly Report post Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) LOL at the funny quote by Price today at their practice: MONTREAL -- When backup goalie Carey Price, dripping with sweat, got to the Montreal dressing room after staying on late at the team's game-day skate with others who won't start Game 3 of their playoff series against Pittsburgh, fresh-looking Sergei Kostitsyn was walking by."Why weren't you on the ice?" an angry Price asked Kostitsyn, who also won't play. Kostitsyn mumbled something and kept walking, and Price called after him "too good?" The little incident underlined the tough times the Kostitsyn brothers, Sergei and Andrei, are going through. Way to go Carey, would have loved to see you play on a team like Detroit that (usually) know how to play solid team-D and a city/region where they don't boo you at the arena after one bad game and the media are after you 24/7.
