Who don't?

Would anyone want Mike Richards back if he were bought out?

Is Vinny gone? If Yes, then I'd have interest. If no, trade Vinny and then Yes.

You could always use the 10% summer overage to have both and then trade Vinny to NYI (translated: Garth Snow) for some random assortment of 1st round picks.

Holy Crap. Would the Kings seriously think of buyout Richards?

With Holmgren as President of Hockey Operations no way Richards is back in Philly.

i have zero interest - not because he's a bad player or couldn't help the team, but because of the media nonsense that would probably never stop. if you're richards, why would you come back here, despite the fact that the gm that drafted you and the gm that traded you are no longer the gm. i wouldn't if i were him. he'll get an opportunity on a good team somewhere if LA were to move on.

Couldn't care less about the media. I follow most of them for the comedic value.

Man on his way from Newfoundland to Labrador (3 hour flight) had to pee in a bag twice because the plane he was on had no toilet. This is Air Canada.

Not sure why but I find this hilarious. Even better if he had to go #2

i'm talking about the distraction for him and the team - that's what i'd care about.

I doubt there'd be much issue after the initial fanfare. He'd be happily slotted as a 2nd or 3rd liner and not the captain, let him just go out and play and not deal with the BS

- jstross

I would be shocked


of course I was shocked when the Flyers traded him so

Detroit balked in a walk off run.

A balkoff win for the Tribe

What would Richards Cap hit be around?

He's going to look terrible in that Canucks jersey
- Jsaquella

We'll replace him with Brady Vail

it's always been his dream to have been a Cherry Hill native.

perhaps...

i just don't see this scenario ever happening - of richards being reacquired.

I agree, it's unlikely.
