If they think Briere puts them over the top to get the Cup, it's not unheard of. Remember Forsberg to Nashville?

Yeah but that's totally different. We were god awful and we got Scottie Upshall, Ryan Parent and a 1st in return, not a top pairing, 24 year old defenseman.

#stlblues source laughed when I ran the Kevin Shattenkirk for Danny Briere trade rumor by him #nothappening

means paperwork is being PDF'ed to the league as we speak.

I agree.. If he does indeed get moved.. its gonna be a bigger deal..

maybe a Briere, Voracek, Gusty + for Shattenkirk and Stewart or something along those lines.. Dont see a 1 for 1 deal being realistic.

That was for 2 months of Forsberg. St Louis has Briere for 3 potential playoff runs and his salary is very friendly after this season. No doubt it's a steal for the Flyers but it's more than worth it if they win the Cup in the next 3 playoff runs.

Wrong...

If Paulmgren had said that than the trade would have already been confirmed and Shattenkirk would be a Flyer.

Come to think of it.. i have bought four jerseys in my life.. the three I mentioned were mine, and one for my brother in law... A Pronger winter classic with the "C"..
- jak521


You should start buying jerseys from other teams. How about picking up an Elias or a Lundqvist, or maybe a Chara. Maybe you'd look good in a James Neal sweater.

I got laughed at and called crazy by a few when I said it before, but when he is on his game (like he is now) he reminds me of Jagr. The way he controls the puck, and the play.. its amazing to watch.

Kevin Shattenkirk is far more valuable to the Blues than Danny Briere would be.

My luck they will end up winning trophies and poop.

I could buy a freakin Brook Orpik jersey and hed somehow end up winning the Jennings Trophy. Totally unheard of poop.

more like foppa imo, with his build, the way he skates, keeps the puck close to his body, pass first, etc

I'll give up watching Hockey if the Flyers get Shattenkirk for Briere. That's how confident I am that it isn't happening.

I just don't know why'd they give up a player like Shattenkirk. I wouldn't. I think we're all just dreaming here.

Let's put it this way. If the Blues decided they needed help up front and decided to move Shattenkirk to get that player, don't you think they'd aim a lot higher than Briere?

So what you're saying is there is no way to reverse psychology your jinx. Never mind getting that Shelley jersey now. With your luck he'll miraculously heal, get inserted into the lineup, and cut into most of Voracek's minutes.

Certainly they'd be looking for a younger player.
