NJ loses to LA thinking Kovi is the answer.

NJ loses to LA by LA getting Parise.

What a fantastic world this will be when that happens

Parise to LA

you think howson is going to trade him unless he gets a steal of a deal? he wont trade him for equal value
- dmarsden2988


He has no choice but to trade him. See Danny Heatley.

Heatley was a bit more aggressive in wanting to leave, but I digress. It would be a multi player deal. I can see Brassard and Nash going for Roy and Vanek. More believable now?

This guy is a career backup at best. I'm sorry, but Steve Yzerman is terrible. Lindback has a chronic disease that leaves him extremely fatigued, how do you expect this guy to be your starter when he probably can't even last 25 games. He has done nothing good for the Bolts since he took over, he inherited a team of superstars, yet he was given all the credit in the world just because of his name. They will be dealing with the same situation they had last year, great offense, but absolutely no goaltending. Great plan, I'd be pissed if I was a bolts fan.

There are two different markets at play here. We have the more-established high-cost goalie market (which you could include Luongo, Bryzgalov etc.) and you have the less-established lower cost-goalie market (Lindback, Harding, Bernier, etc.). What we have here is one taken off the supply side of the latter market, but also one piece taken of the demand side for the first market. It seems like teams are looking for goaltending, but the cost issue (both in contract and acquisition) factor into which market the teams will persue. Not all teams who had interest in Lindback had an interest in Luongo, but most teams who had some interest in Luongo had some interest in Lindback as well.

I dont think that plays an effect at all. I think its more or less the Kings have never won a championship. I think after winning it now gives us a shot at singing people. Im not gonna sit here and say that we are gonna get Parise or Suter for that matter. Im just saying that if you look at who we lost out on. They went to teams that have won championships.

If anything the beach's, nice weather and etc would entice people to come here. But for a team who had never been able to finish the job is what i think deterred the players away.

LA fans prompted to cheer against Brodeur, can't do it themselves.

LA has Cartman yelling for chants.

More celebrities at games than "fans".

Shootings and stabbings in the parking lot.

Oh look, I can say brainless poop too.

if he doesnt find an offer to his liking that he feels will improve his team then he doesnt have to trade him at all

LA always chants Brodeurs name whenever he is in LA been doing it for many years.

AND for your south park comment.....The two guys who do the show are Kings fans and have a contract with AEG.

And a large part of that has been taken care of now. The team has shown it is willing to spend to make the team better and has gotten rewarded with winning a cup.

Keep reveling in your stupidity.

Get back to me when the Kings are a constantly successful franchise capable of sustaining quality play for years on end.

yes because we both know that there are not tons of fake wannabe's in LA

but why did it take a scoreboard to get them started in the finals? if they do it for years then why was it started as soon as it was shown on the board rather then just chanting his name by yourself?

and even you have to admit that the cartman crap is annoying as (frank)

Yeah, esse, you got me on the ticket holder thing. I concede. Let's drink tequila and stab children together. I don't own a low rider so we'll have to take yours.

and LA's fine education system. New Jersey is one of the states. Might want to check that out. And I guess the sign of a quality state is having the most sports teams. Lots of interesting ideas you have.

well kinda hard for the state to be a champion city

but if you wanna talk about championships then we still have 2 more than you guys so while you guys won it this year, its not exactly hard to see that nj is a championship state by those means

and who cares about the NBA other then laker fans?

Seriously though, I will laugh if NJ sends Parise off.

Oh and I wont worry if Parise stays in NJ by the way.

I love making it a big deal though that he is possibly on the move and seeing all the NJ fans pretty much backing up he is the franchise is funny as hell.

most of us said that the penalty was a good call, we were more questioning why the stoll hit wasnt a penalty
