Thoughts on the Rags deals?

Apparently, $5M per for 5 years was outlandish for Zuccarello, but $4.5M for 4 years is a steal for Sather?

Keith Yandle will help move the puck more or less, but they basically paid a King's ransom to soften up one of the NHL's most solid defenses and increase their turnovers per game.

Yeah, knee surgery

hopefully it wasn't too serious and doesn't impact his play with us next season. guess its good for him since extra time off since playoffs don't seem likely for us.

If it does affect him, it could alter his speed from "slow" to "Schenn."

Best that 5th can become is a 3rd. Wow.

Great point by Kypreos re: Petry. Hard to get an amazing return for a guy who other teams/people value more than your organization does.

Essentially, EDM did a bad job selling a good asset.

- Jsaquella


I always thought Petry and Coburn were somewhat comparable.

Based on the way Schultz played once he left Edmonton, I would think Petry's game would improve.

Thats a great deal for the Habs though. They're the first to not overpay for a defenseman and they got what they needed. A defenseman with size who won't slow their team down

We're getting Kessel today guys. I can feel it. Too many things making sense lately for something to not balance that out.
- eayost

Kessel and Phaneuf
for all the picks we just got, Jake, and Sanheim

Then we find out that Homer and Clarke bound and gagged Hextal in a corner of the office

I hope he has one of his classic turnovers late in the 3rd period of game 7 against the Wings and it results in a goal.

His final season in New York will then be filled with ridicule

No way.. I can see it as Hexy has ties, but won't he either be in prison or suspended for a while?

His trial starts any day now. Hard to believe they would trade for a guy who might end up in jail.

Vinny would serve any prison time Voynov might get.
