I want a second line center and someone to take Versteeg's contract.

#MILFS?

Well yes.

Hmmm he probably is the bastard who pissed on me.

He isn't going to have much choice. As long as Versteeg isn't one of them, fine by me.

I am just looking foward to Morin getting a regular shift and scoring 25 goals and watching Pirri get his 40 to 50 points with the Panthers, then everyone wondering internally, why didn't these guys get to skate every day with us last year?

But a gal can dream can't she.....

Gee. Thanks for the visual....

Exactly. What an ass. No wonder he gets banned all the time.

Ribeiro clearly has some issues, something is up when the GM throws a guy under the bus after a buyout. There's a story detailing the multiple infractions he had this year that drove Phoenix to dump him.

Gonna be pretty hard for Pirri to put up those numbers playing 3rd line minutes.

He has had the same issue for years. Drugs. It not really a secret around the league. If the Hawks were to sign him I would order shirts or something.

Versteeg is a bargain, Florida kept half his salary....

Under his breath, Tallon says, I would have paid 3.5 to rid myself of that mess.

How come the Penquins are never up against the cap?
- Studebakerhawk

Becuz they didn't give $6m to a marginal goalie, $4m to a no show LW, $2.2m to a player that should have remained just a fond memory...

what position are Hawks drafting?

They paid the guy almost $12 million to leave the team alone. lol. That's some serious problems, especially for a broke team to pay up.

He scored at that pace getting jerked around half the year in Chicago and skating 2nd and 3rd line minutes in Florida. But hey, lets not look at what he has actually done.

Ducks and Kings are going to be beasts, St Louis another year of experience under their belts, Minny gave us all we could handle, Colorado is loaded with young real deal players.

Hawks getting older and slower they better get some poop done this summer

If Chg does not get a legitimate points producing #2 center, they will fight hard down the stretch to make playoffs. TT is not their next #2 center but he might become a point producing player soon. He has smarts, skill, will play both ways SO Q will play him after a stint in Rockford. But even with TT the team is a candidate to get knocked out early in playoffs. Question: might Sharp hey moved at trade deadline. Maybe, but for picks just to unload his contract. Might others be traded then or next summer? A top three dman and or Leddy, Oduya. Depends in part on progress of Dahlbeck & other Rockford dmrn. So....next summer - or on draft day, some changes in core players. That is my prediction.

This team gets stale when too many of same core is kept. The coaching staff could possibly address that "stale" issue if Babcock was coach. He won't be. Dome players will be playing last year in Chh

No I meant like center, D, Goalie.

Considering Handzus was -4 against LA and a minus in three of the four losses, maybe Pirri could have made a difference in that series.

Reverse Cowgirl or was it Dirty Sanchez?
