achildr1 255 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Why has Flip's rights not been dealt yet? Maybe the demand for him is not as big as he thinks????? Flip swallows pride and signs for 3.2m For real. Im gonna be pissed if it ain't at least a fourth rounder too...guys rights have been commanding legits prices lately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylee 727 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun 3m Blue Jackets very close on a new deal with goalie Sergei Bobrovsky... Although Bob's sample size is a bit small, I think he is the real deal. If Columbus has any brains at all they give him a deal. 1 evilmrt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey man nice shot! 144 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 I'm not very familiar with him. What did he do wrong and what are his skills like? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHby1n9ahxY He has a bit of a tude, but other than that a big body, great hands, not afraid to get in the nasty area's, and loves to hit.

MasterPavel 115 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 I was thinking Rychel too. Is there a live stream anywhere for the Draft? Rychel is Cleary 2.0, and that is not the type of player we need. We need a PF, or a legitimate goal scorer. Not a gritty average sized borderline top 6 guy. If you want that style of player Ryan Hartman is a much better choice.

If you want that style of player Ryan Hartman is a much better choice.right only that he is listed at 5'11 185 (compared to Rychel's 6'1 200) and he scored 23 goals (Rychel's coming off consecutive 40 goal seasons). Now I know better than trusting a player profile but Rychel certainly strike me as the more intriguing player of the two... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
germanwing 154 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Some news from Kenny: David Pagnotta @TheFourthPeriod Wings GM Ken Holland says he's talked to about 25 teams over the last few days. Holland wants a top-2/top-3 defenseman, but they're "hard to find" Holland also said he met with Lecavalier for half an hour. Lots of uncertainty over Vinny's future. Sounds too early in process right now. Barring a significant turn of events, doesn't sound like Detroit trades Filppula's rights. Contract talks will continue.

MasterPavel 115 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Sure use a weight from last year. Hartman weighs 195 and they both project as secondary scoring with Hartman having more offensive potential according to many scouts. You missed my point, neither should be chosen in the 1st. We have plenty of secondary scoring. Mantha, Domi, Gauthier, or Zykov are all better options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mantha, Domi, Gauthier, or Zykov are all better options.Like I said, I looked at his profile, I know they are mabe not up to date and are sometimes overly generous. I dont think we have secondary scoring like Rychel. Mantha is projected to be picked long before the Red Wings will get a shot at him and if you want to add size, Domi is hardly the way to go.

FlashyG 1,799 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Barring a significant turn of events, doesn't sound like Detroit trades Filppula's rights. Contract talks will continue. Apparently Flip and his agent have said they will test the market so there is no market to trade his rights besides for a very late conditional pick we would never receive.

Datsyukian-Deke 722 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 As much as I never want our team to miss the playoffs, it would be nice to get a player that was ready to step in right away.
