ahhh right totally forgot about hossa good call there


but doug weight and recchi were dinosaurs at that point in their careers (recchi was 35 and weight was old too)


bill guerin filled more of a "role" type void there


im talking like a guy that was brought in specifically to bring in like 70 pts of production a year



anyone else? im stumped

Well without Weight and Recchi, Carolina doesn't win the cup and Guerin was a major reason Pittsburgh won the cup. Weight and Guerin were the main targets around the trade deadline too.

Recchi might've been old but he's won 2 cups post lockout.


Pronger trade to Anaheim

Rafalski UFA signing for Detroit.

I'll pass.

Agree on Malone, he's hurt to much.

It's too bad, he is a gamer.

his contract is worse then leinos...

Only good thing about that contract is that he makes less than his cap hit.

3 mil this year and 2.5 mil the following 2.

It's too bad, he is a gamer.
- Gunner Staal

Would take him just for the playoffs. I think Robyn Regehr is the same way. People were dissapointed in him in the regular season and he got banged up a little bit, but I think the guy plays big in big games. Like Malone

his contract is worse then leinos...
- FIREonICE

Not even close, you must not watch him play

Not if he is healthy.

Yeah a little bit. Webb shooting back to back 68's is incredible.

I have no idea who he is.
- Homer

...he is the apparently NHL ready dman from Wisconsin that won't sign with the ducks and becomes a UFA on July 1st

Hopefully not Stasny
- Whatnot78

My understanding is that he is not in contention right now.

i think youre missing my point perhaps im not eing specific enough, i meant like a guy that was targeted to come in on the first line and tear it up. im talking intent for a ton of production. youre proving my point here...we should be targeting guys that can fill a specific role



we all get caught up (specifically myself) in going after the "sexy" target

you watch the philly game where he gave up the breakway that cost us our season?

I did...but there were so many other moments in the season that could have made it not matter. Not going to hang him for it.

- Gunner Staal

Especially given the conditions. Granted he played eariler in the day, and did not deal with the mist/fog/haze. I was hoping Mcdowell would make that put on 18 but read that wrong all the way.

Ive heard the Sabres don't like Gaunce...I want that Wilson kid...Ive seen him mocked to us at 12 and 21....most say 12 is too high but wont be there at 21.
- Homer

Wilson is rising

I like him and would not mind grabbing him at 12

he will be gone at 21 IMO

Yeah a little bit. Webb shooting back to back 68's is incredible.
- Gunner Staal

when he got that first birdie on the back 9, I knew he was going to win

No.

how many of those guys had 70 pt years? like i specified. because chara and prongs are d men id give them a break as they def had major factors in their teams going all the way. that gives us 3 guys.


the rest of those guys are role guys dont kid yourself.

where ya been homer??? hes the most talked about "available" (i.e. rfa, ufa, and one year guys left on contract) next to like staal, nash, suter etc
- HAMgerber

He's played zero NHL games.....forgive me if I won't lump him in with Staal, Nash, Suter just yet
