Wouldn't matter since the other two would be in Washington.

Clever.....but I wouldn't trade Hall and Yak for Ovi....then we would basically be Washington. No thanks.

Hall and Yak wouldn't be worth giving up for the current Ovi anyway. Definitely five year ago Ovi though.

I think we have already seen the best Ovi has to offer, and amazing as he can be, I'm not sure I trade Hall straight up for him. Could be a homer comment, but whatever.

Ovi does two things very well, score goals and fail at rap music videos. Beyond that he's kind of average all around.

Yeah, I'm not a fan. I think in the grand scheme of things that Sid VS Ovi debate has clearly been won by a large margin some time ago, and in a few years Hall > Ovi.

Its been known since their rookie years. Sid is the better player and Ovi is the better goal scorer. Now hall being better than Ovi? It's possible. We will see. The real question is will Hall be better than Josh Bailey?

I know right? I'm crazy to think he will even be in the same discussion as the Bailster.

Half the Islander fans think he is worthless garbage barely good enough for their 4th line and the other half think he is fair trade for Dion Phaneuf.....wait, maybe those are the same fans.

Either way, I don't know what to make o that guy.

I would trade Quincey for him. Maybe throw in a conditional 7th, the condition being they take (frank)ing Quincey

Most Wings fans feel like the homeless people from the south park episode where the town is over run by them. The main difference is instead of repeating "chaaaange" we are repeating "taaaake hiiim"

so what you're saying is, if the league expands next year and adds more teams, it suddenly makes all the cups that you're red wings won irrelevant? because now there are more teams than when your team won the cup? ahahahah see how bad your arguement sounds? god this is getting too easy, wish there were more knowdlegeable fans here to argue with. can't expect much from people who rank the sens above the leafs hahahah

The Leafs are legit one of the biggest jokes in professional sports. The sad part (for you) is that you continue to try defend them while everyone else laughs at you. No amount of emoticons or irrelevant scenarios can distract the rest of us from just how atrocious the Toronto Maple Leafs franchise is. You lose. It's over.

Maybe Nashville and the Canucks if certain things go right.

NJ was screwed by shootouts (0-12), more luck there, losing Brodeur, n a sniper in Cammalleri to play with Jagr-Zajac will give them the push they need IMO. Top 5 possession team. Also a big believer in Schneider, think he's a top 5 goalie

Hard time placing NYR. Think they took too big of a blow in Richards, Stralman, Pouliot, Boyle.

Philly was kind of a fringe team last year n the moves they made were terrible. Hartnell>>>Umberger and Macdonald's an absolute anchor. One of the reasons I have NYI doing so much better is losing Macdonald. Also think Mason'll slip

- TheNugeIsHuge

Truth. Our D was instantly better without him. Now if we could just get rid of the coach that misused him and add a top 4 we'd be legit.

Be honest, do you really think the glove was stuck?

I'm one of the few that likes him though I see why fans have given up on him. He's consistently inconsistent. Kid has sick hands and oozes with talent just puts in a half assed effort at times. Frustrating player we've all seen it before. I'm thinking he finds consistency this season if he's not traded before it starts.
