hillbillywingsfan 792 Report post Posted March 19, 2013 Holland must of low balled Perry. Holland fails again to sign someone way over what they are worth. To be honest I think it's all the fault of one which will not be named. He's done this and has ruined the league. 1 DSM reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Gary.Bettman Report post Posted March 19, 2013 hillbillywingsfan, I am sorry that you feel the resigning of Corey Perry is my doing. You shoudl know that I was pressing for him to join the Pittsburgh Penguins, so he could play with and protect the Face of the League I called Ray Shero and Mario Lemieux 16 times in the past few days, to no avail. 2 Shaman and Nightfall reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ogreslayer 1,069 Report post Posted March 20, 2013 Not surprising at all. I think this signing speaks volumes for the credibility of "trade speculation". Just yesterday, a whole bunch of trade sites were talking about how Perry was "getting homesick" and wanted to be closer to Ontario. The next day he re-signs... It was probably a load of bull Krupp, like a lot of other "trade speculation". That being said, I doubt anyone should get their hopes up about Bobby Ryan being moved. He's not going anywhere... Based on Perry's own words, he did consider going UFA to either the Leafs or Wings for the very reason of being closer to home, so maybe that speculation was closer to home than you give credit for: http://www.torontosun.com/2013/03/19/corey-perry-felt-lure-of-southern-ontario-before-re-signing-with-ducks?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029 Report post Posted March 20, 2013 Good. The fake tough guy can stay out in the west, where we only have to see him once a year beginning next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422 Report post Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) It's also nice to put to rest the speculation of us signing him like some have mentioned. Including myself. Edited March 20, 2013 by St. Michael (the Red Wing) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
