That's why we should lock up pal at early 4 million per year for 5 years

I would, lets see what he can do for us. Connolly is not going to crack our top six.

I still say 5 years 17.5MM. Would be a steal in my opinion if he signed for that.

Hedman is the most underrated defensemen in my opinion... even some Bolts fans at the games still grumble about him for some reason which I don't understand at all. That kid on the ice is special and now that he is the No 1 PP with Stammer, Fil, Palat, and probably Drouin look out that 55 points will go up. But to me he just needs to stay consistent in what he did this year and can maintain 50pts per year he will continue to be our stud.

Michael have you seen this article from the hockey writers talking about Kesler and him getting traded to the Bolts and look who they talk about from Tampa being the returning player... they are severely downplaying our guy and on top of that he is our NO 1 in a position of need. Anyway if you haven't seen it check it out, you have wrote about both these guys the last few days.

Absolutely made the right call. There is a chance that Callahan signs a reasonable deal with the Lightning and even if not 2 firsts ,even late in the rounds, is a solid return for player of his age. Quite impressive for a young GM to not get hosed by one of the true master's of the trade, especially when MSL held the cards the way he did.

Not trying to be douchey and toot the other teams horn, but that was excellent deal for the Rangers as well. Any time you make the finals (that's where my money is going anyway) the deals you made that year are all good.

Sather had a lot of difficult choices to make, but in the last year he moved Gaborik for a solid return, chose to resign Girardi and moved a heart and sould player for an inspirational and productive leader.Still one the best minds in the business.

Seriously? Are you on crack? Redden, Holik, Gomez? I cant believe this guy still has a job.

There is a certain fan that has three of the same letter in there handle of a certain team that resides on an island that believes he's overvalued, overpayed and overrated, but I'll let that douche tell you himself.

Yep> He sure has. As of right now, the NYI's made the right call, but Hedman is mos def muddying the waters.
- Jeropotato


No he's not lol I love Hedman, but the water isn't even muddied between him and Tavares.

Let Droiun continue to develop, and look to Stamkos for your goals. Agreed that would be a ridiculous trade for TB

Actually no. I'm simply stating that I've seen enough of how you conduct yourself here to discount your opinions. I'm all for a serious chat on the topic.

All of the Kesler speculation centers around the fact that Kesler had the Bolts on his list of acceptable trade destinations. I'm not saying that Yzerman doesn't have some interest, but I can pretty much guarantee Yzerman isn't the one driving the talk
