Vinny is a younger and less damaged than Briere, but I actually think Briere could score 30 goals playing on Crosby's wing assuming they both play 70+ games.

Anywhere else I think he'll be disappointing.

- Feanor

i think they will both be detrimental for whoever signs both of them. on a shorter term deal, vinny could be interesting. but if these 5 for 5 rumors are true, that is trouble. i think he would present a major headache for the flyers dealing with that contract in a year or two.

and briere is just so rough at wing, especially at this point of his career. even with crosby as his center, i just dont know if the offense would be worth dealing with his extreme lack of defense.

i think everyone was. i know he has size, but if i was schenn i wouldve been expecting some sort of alex semin esque slap fest, not that beat down. i personally cant stand schenn, so i found it hilarious, but i will give him this. a lot of people wouldve been caught off guard and subsequently thrashed there

Red Wings have been told they are not in the Vinny Lecavalier bidding war. Sounds like he's close to deciding.

Is this a joke? I can't sense the sarcasm if it is. The Flyers already used both compliance buyouts.
