I wish my contract sucked as bad a Luongo's remaining 9 years and $40+ million.

I feel horrible for him.
- rival22

I respects guys like him more for saying that though. He just wants to play. Hes going to get paid a boatload of money regardless.

Jones and MacKinnon are going to be studs, depth of the draft maybe the only thing to really question. Cant be as poor as 2012.
- nbartley9

2012 is probably the ONLY class that 2013 is stronger than in the past 5 years.

edit: And that is yet to be proven.

For cheap too. We could have had him before we brought Jokis as he knows all the systems and is a well liked guy.
- Orpik44

Different roles. We needed a guy who can win face offs and kill penalties.

Devils fans hating on Steve Sullivan right now.

With the trade deadline over I hope I don't have to read any more ridiculous trade suggestions for at least a little while now.

Great value both ways, but it has to pay off, not that im worried or anything

Remember years ago when we couldnt even begin to imagine adding salary to our payroll? Praise be to Mario and Ron

Jokinen>>>>>>Sullivan.

Ok so bryz will be bought out after the year and then Steve mason will be booed out of town the next season
- Genev21

Lets see Mason plays decent this year and gets a 7 year contract as well.

My favorite was EK giving 40% chance of Nabokov being traded to the Pens.

I mean how was that even thought of?

Pretty glad we didn't get Parise at this point.
Call me crazy but my favorite trade(minus over paying) has been Doug Murray.

Different roles. We needed a guy who can win face offs and kill penalties.
- cap1681

I've always seen J.Jokinen as a fast, scoring winger. Didn't know he killed penalties. It's a good thing as I'm tired of 1-dimensional players.
