Great news

[friarfan07]

awesome news. adios, brick city debtmongers!

There's one bright spot in an otherwise depressing and extended off-season.

Argh...football's done for me and now there's no hockey to watch. This is terrible.

[benzni]

I know. I have gotten more into NBA especially with my team becoming relevant again. Have you seen any foreign games at all? I know they air them sometimes on NHL network but not everyone gets it

I wish I could see more foreign games. I don't have cable but I do get ESPN3 online and they show a lot of obscure games, so maybe I'll have to check that out a little.

I may also try to get to a couple AHL games if I get the chance.

And speaking of...the NHL IS BACK!!!

[Thumper 88]

I think this break is great for our team, especially Martin.

[Thumper 88]

I think we make the playoffs, it will hurt a little not having zach but we have to find a way to overcome.

if henrique performs with the same energy and produces 60 points this year, we have a good chance.

Also need Kovalchuk to reach the 80-90 point plateau like he is capable of. Clarkson...4th line... all need to perform as well as they did last year

[Thumper 88]

yep... hopefully we keep up the vicious cycles throughout all 4 lines

[Bricklayer]

If I interpret the new CBA correctly it mentions that each team has the option to void it's 2 worst contracts similar to the amnesty clause in the N.B.A.

Which contacts would you amnesty if given the chance? Kovy perhaps?

[benzni]

if we void the kovy contract, can we re-negotiate? I am not up to par when it comes to contracts and stuff

[Thumper 88]

No you cannot... Because whatever the other team pays to get him we get to pay the remainder..

No way we should anmy Kovy beacause he is our best player and until there are better players on the FA market we must keep him, even then I still would keep him because their is no guarantee a FA would want to sign here.

Also Kovy showed great leardership durring the playoff run doing everything while being injured... He should be our team C

That clip of him standing up for Zach then TKOing that dude in one punch= Priceless

ok

I would never amnesty him either way. He is the best player on this team and the future
