For another number 3 C?
- Hemingways

Now way would I pay that, but everything I've read says that's what he's looking for. Apparently NJ thought they couldn't afford him either.

He's good, but he's not that good. No reason Bick can't be, and shouldn't be a consistent 25 goal scorer playing on the top line.

Win for Stan!

I'm more concerned with his conditioning and reflexes after missing a year at age 39.
- Hemingways

I'd be more excited about his freshening and Cup pedigree...but he'd have to be a good mate and STFU and play hockey

If anyone pays more than $4.5 for Clarkson they should be NEUTERED

Well, get those scissors ready 'cause it's coming!

I'm glad Stan's not in on this insanity.

Also, very good to see Handzus back. I expect he'll get around $2 million.

The way things are going all the teams will hit their respective caps by 1:00 EST and Stalberg will be left out in the cold ... yey again!

Then I owe you that case of beer and you win in the end!. Dang it.

It is funny watching the guys get hyped about all the salary and term. Think a lot of us are spoiled and detached. Perhaps they will value the depth we do have. Paul, word is if you come back, you could get a 3 year 9 million dollar deal from Philly to be that big winger they need.

wingsfrontman: The #RedWings are in the process of trying to work out a deal for center Stephen Weiss, which means Filppula is gone.

Not for the Yotes. They need to spend in order to win and save the franchise, find a buyer. He'd be a solid 2C on OUR team, FFS. If Bicks gets 4/$16M, I don't see Ribeiro's $ as out of line at all.
- Q...argh

They have a buyer, have a building deal the Glendale - all they need are actual fans.

We should all put our names in and see what happens. Man therse owners need to amend the CBA again to stop each GM from making more than one move an hour.

re-sign Krugman, get Rosy back in the fold, sign Thomas. Good enough for me.

My work buddies and I are all laughing in total wonder at this madness.

I am even more useless at work than usual. Fun way to pass the day. Would love to see the Hawks get a 2c, but thinking that won't come today. Tim Thomas would be fun to talk about if it happened.

That would be good. Rozy I'd love to see come back.

Maybe....guy wasn't even drafted. Good player, tough, teamer..but NO WAY do I empty the wallet and pay him more than 19 and 88


Clarke MacArthur to Ottawa for 2 years....

Scuderi stays with Pitt...Marc Andre Boucher to Isles for 1 year
- philco28

with LA u mean???

cotsonika: It's only 1 p.m. Lots of money spent in one hour. Like me at lunch.

cotsonika: If Clowe gets five years, $24.25M, what does Clarkson get? I'm afraid to find out.

@SunGarrioch: The Senators have agreed to terms with Clarke MacArthur. #Sens #ottnews”

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 30s
MacArthur is 2 x $3.25M with OTT. Done deal.

What's funny is the owners shelling out the money! Glad that strike worked out! Obviously the owners learned nothing. Giroux making $8mill+ has me worried about what Toews and Kane will be asking for, and whether we can keep both of them.

$141M spent in one hour ---- INSANITY!

Why did teh owners lock the players out again?

- philco28

Oh, I totally agree. But he will probably wind up getting 88 and 19 type dollars - which boggles the mind.

Exactly.

Don't forget, the cap should go up the next couple of years.

I can see the Captain being a little more generous as far as what he asks, but I can see Kane asking for the moon.

JJ- are the Hawks still looking to dump Brookbank. Do you see a future for Carcillo, or will he stay behind the glass that reads "Do not break unless you want an outbreak of mayhem and added PK practice"?
- ikeane

I think they would trade either or both for cap room, have heard they are trying to move Brookbank, not sure how that happens right now

Weiss just compared to potential Arnason and Calder on NHL Network
