curious about Kimmo Timonen, whats going on with him. Resign him? Still an effective dman? or could he be deadline bait?

Probably retires after this year.

I would only bring him back for no more than 3mil, and he'd be off the PP. Not sure he would go for that.

I listen at the deadline, but if the team keeps rolling I'm probably holding onto him. If the team falters before the deadline, he's getting a shot at the cup with someone else.

I think I am ready to move on. I want to get at least 1 of our young guys in the line-up.

He was interesting to me for the Avs as a vet presence for the team going forward in the playoff push

He would be a good addition for the Avs gearing up for the playoffs. He can still log big minutes. He just doesn't have the footspeed he once did and as a result he gets caught and ends up holding guys... a lot. But he seems to get away with it most of the time.

not a forward as thats our biggest asset right now. It would have to be a combo of a dman, prospect, and draft pick. Maybe Wilson and 1st/2nd? I dunno its a deadline deal so the price is always high for draft picks.

In whatever deal the avs might do, thats the only sort of pieces I would be happy for them moving

Jocelyn Thibault, Chris Simon, Ron Hextall, Kerry Huffman, Peter Forsberg, Steve Duchesne, and $15M?

The Flyers will not deal him. They will be on the bubble at the deadline. I don't know if he returns next year and I don't want him back if it costs us a shot at lets say a Niskanen or Girardi

I don't know much about Wilson as a player, I only comment on his blogs.

Well, we already have a Ron Hextall, but if I get the $15m I say let's do it!

If the Flyers are out of the playoffs by the TDL then I could see them asking Kimmo if he wants to go play for another team with a shot at the cup.

But with the way things are shaping up in the east the Flyers are likely to still be in the race for a wild card spot, and then he will have to stay.

He has lost a step or two but still can play at a high level and would be of great use to a team in the play offs, certainly.

Next year who knows.

I think he could still play another year on a team that doesn't need to use him for big minutes.

It's Canada. Just let them have hockey. And Rush.
- Just5


But they've already got all the maple syrup, universal healthcare, and a lower drinking age.

Plus they gave us Justin (frank)ing Bieber.

It's on Canada. It's. SO. ON!

Rush does not suck

However Bieber most certainly does!

- BiggE


Rush does suck. They put out a handful of okay songs in the 80s. I see them the same way I see U2. They're a band people in the late 30s/40s use as a way of saying, "See, I'm hip, I like that crazy rock and roll music just like all the kids."

People tend to listen to the music they liked when they were in that 14 - 25 YO time frame.

So, for me, I still like Springsteen, Pearl Jam, and Nirvana and own way too many flannel shirts.
