^^^ same...


SOMEONE STICKY THIS!!!

Howson wouldn't take an entire set of draft picks from NYI for the #2 pick. What do you think he wants to get for nash? Im guessing couturier, both schenns, giroux and our next two first rounders and that might not even be enough!!!!!!!

[Claude28Giroux]

So I got a shower and Now im wide awake so here I am.

I think we should stay away from the ridiculous contracts, Nash, Praise, Suter etc. If we get Bobby Ryan, great but giving up 2 young players and picks might be a high asking price.

I would also say goodbye to Carle.

Sign Vorachek, Depth Dman, and go hard for Doan and if he doesnt work out. Look at Hudler(Det), Boyes (Buf), Wellwood (Jets), Prust (NYR). It all depends what line winger they are looking for.

They should be able to improve with minimal moves. IF the Pens do sign Praise and Suter. Then stand pat, because next year we wont win, and then go hard after Weber and a 1st line winger, with the cap space created from Kimmo and Hartnell

I wouldn't get too excited today........my prediction would be that we announce we are re-signing Carle and then one of the lesser tier guys...aka someone not named Parise or Semin..

Parise Choosing if he wants to be a A UFA or not?
Can you even do that?

[Blair Betts]

They mean he will decide if he will resign with the devils before free agency hits. Did you read the article or just the headline haha

Dustin Leed:
I’m told the situation between the Flyers and Matt Carle is “kind of awkward right now”. Reminds me of a weird breakup.





bye bye Carle

I read the 1st paragraph. Just said he will meet with his agent and the devils office. I was like wtf? He cant just not be a Free agent. He gotta sign with devils or be a free agent. only 2 choices.

[Claude28Giroux]

Gave a qualifying offer to Jakub. That pretty much means we have him. Unless he wants to hold out the season

[Claude28Giroux]

Only 1/2 Hour of hype before GMs can get down to the business of seriously overpaying players who will break their hearts + salary structures

Lol

[BrunoPhilly14]
