Imagine how HB could get better if you could dispose of me and dt in 3 days time.

Fair point. Though you two wouldn't be my first two choices.

not me. they're not off to a hot start. Nill bought some cap room for this year to make some changes if he needs to. and the buyout on Moen is like 600k for 2 years.
- DoubleDown

They've lost seven straight. Nill bought a bit of space, but nothing that will fix what is ailing the Stars. But either way, Gonchar is an NHL player.

Maybe he does and he just can't see them cuz:
1- they are stuck in a "bourlet"
2-They are still too small for him to see them cuz he can't see past his gut.

What makes you think Gonchar is a NHL caliber player? His 5M contract?
- fidopro


Had more points per 60 minutes of PP than Markov and Subban last year.

In the second best case it'll be a Mathieu Schneider/MAB-like scenario.

In the best case he'll get an season-ending injury and will be put on LTIR.

In the worst case he sucks, is benched and we don't ever talk of him again after this year.

I need to grow up because the thought of you having slappy (not a typo) sex makes me ill? I don't see why.
Yes, you mentioned it, but it wasn't there before I posted.

He cannot skate. Remember Hal Gill? Or Douglas Murray? Same thing with Gonchar, except that instead of bringing defense on the PK or toughness in front of the net, he brings a 2nd PP unit.

Yep. Let's upgrade the 2nd unit when the 1st doesn't do anything!
Personnaly, I'd put him on waivers first thing tomorrow morning.

Gonchar will be gone once Montreal is eliminated by Tampa in the first round.

Patience, guys.
