Sources say Daniel Alfredsson has informed the Senators he will not be returning to Ottawa. He will sign with BOS or DET #Sens #ottnews

Just wish Emery wasn't an injury concern. You know with the way this teams rolls he's going to get hurt.

I'm comfortable with him. Thomas is great but acwhackjob. Don't want to trade for halak.

Flyers adding a lot of solid veteran leadership

In the last few years he's shown an inability to succeed at that. What, they think he has a switch they can just flip?

This dude Rich has him confirmed at Det. We will see how accurate this dude is only a few hours.

Wants a chance to win before he goes out. I still never thought he'd leave Ottawa.

This whole talking to players 2 days before FA changes everything. Teams by now have an idea if they have a shot or not with the guy they want, so the trade market that may have been delayed a bit while teams wait on FAs could happen today too.

Coburn is better than any FA Dman

Couterier would be right up there at the top of FA forwards


Should be interesting.

I don't think such incompetence is feasible, but if Couturier were a 'throw in', let alone to make a salary dump work, Holmgren should be fired immediately.

Also, in case any of you hadn't seen, here's Grabovski's expletive-filled tirade after getting bough out, calling Carlyse a "(expletive) idiot"

No. They have that stud Goligoski. Was a coup dumping that stiff Neal. That trade has set Dallas up for years to come.

I like Bogosian, that would be good value for parting with Coots. I think it would be for someone like that for Homer to do it, which is good.

I love how holmer and the flyers give Timmy p nothing. Didn't Timmy tweet last night Holmgren said giroux deal not done yet about 20 mins before it was announced?

Yes, although their D prospects are pretty good.

The Piertiangelo offer sheet thing is interesting. I imagine some team makes an offer, it seems St. Louis is going to let someone else determine the market value.

If it actually works for that other team I will be bummed.
