Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029 Report post Posted June 22, 2011 Is it seriously that hard to figure out? There are only two UFA defensemen the Wings can sign before July 1st who didn't play for Detroit. Derian Hatcher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted June 22, 2011 Derian Hatcher. Ok. I'll rephrase. The player I'm thinking of is capable of playing on an NHL team right now. Plus, I'm not certain on whether the Wings actually can sign Hatcher before July 1st due to how long it has been since his retirement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Travis 576 Report post Posted June 23, 2011 Markov is apparently getting close to re-signing in Montreal. Some places are already reporting that a deal is in place, but LeBrun just tweeted the following: @Real_ESPNLeBrun: Re: reports that Andrei Markov has re-signed in Montreal: ``We're not done, we're still working on it,'' his agent Don Meehan just told me.

Some places are already reporting that a deal is in place, but LeBrun just tweeted the following: Although they've locked up Hal Gill and essentially Markov, the Habs blue line still could look a little different next year. I doubt Paul Mara is offered a contract by Montreal. Is Josh Gorges a free agent? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Majsheppard 203 Report post Posted June 26, 2011 The first figures suggest that the cap will go up significantly next year as well. I say sign everyone that will help that we can fit under the cap. We can always make a trade. COUGH COUGH CHICAGO COUGH! Sorry I had some Philly phlegm in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw this too, it would be amazing to pick this kid up, but I see the wings getting both Doughty and Weber long before they have Stamkos. 1 Majsheppard reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
