Could use regular buy out
- dbell646

That is what i originally meant. I knew he wasnt eligible for complaince. I just thought buyouts(even regular ones) had to be completed before UFA started today. Isnt that what Bart was getting at?

This makes me sad

I love Orpik too hopefully they overpaid for him

Landing anyone of these guys from the Ducks for Martin would be HUGE. Cogliano, Etem, Smith Pelly, or Rakell. Mostly promising young guys and the key is that they come cheaper than Martin. Theyre certainly in go-for-it-now mode...but any way Ducks need Pauly that bad?

Ducks are pretty deep on D. They don't "need" him.

I do like the Ducks pieces we could get in return.

Their GM came out and said he isn't moving any of the young guys. I'll assume he was speaking the truth.

Could be the case I'm not sure

He hasn't been the same the last few years. He's getting old and worn down.

For Orpik to the Caps...

Rierden will trot him out against 87/71 so there's a positive Ha Ha

Stuart to Colorado for a 2nd round pick and a 6th round pick

IF Stuart got a 2nd and a 6th Martin could do way better.

For Orpik to the Caps...

Is that Vitale?

Good point. Probably being too optimistic. Their forwards are like our young D though. Very very deep.

If we get rid of Scuds I'll keep Martin for this season and go for it all. If we're stuck with Scuds, I'd trade Martin.

Is that Vitale?

Dunno... focus is just on the Caps flopping... also (frank) Ovechkin, in general.

edit: Roster says 9 was Dupuis for that year

Is that Vitale?

1.1M a year for Vitale

Ehrhoff and Hornqvist are excellent Powerplay additions by the way.

Seriously? No, its Kennedy.

That is insanity! The Arizona GM should be fired immediately.

Hopefully they are excellent powerplay additions in the playoffs too.

I wouldnt have taken Vitale at league min.

if you are paying a 4th line center $1.1 mil x 3 years, they you are doing it wrong.

(frank)!!!

Hemsky gone to Dallas that desire can die now

Ryan Miller is the next goalie to ask for a trade out of Vancouver when he is blamed for everything.

Seriously? No, its Kennedy.
- kgrpitt

Anytime somebody falls down a veiled reference to Vitale can be made. Also, the puck didnt hit the goalie in the chest or ring around the boards high and wide so I know it wasnt TK.

Who's the top 6 winger the Pens could package Martin and a Prospect for?

Kulemin signed somewhere?
