I'd do it for Subban.

A long term contract for a goalie is just suicidal...

I don't think there has been one that has worked out yet

With the return of Cédrick Desjardins, the Bulldogs will be a fun team to watch next year.

Yea, CD was clearly the driving force in this one, not Gallagher, Tinordi, Beaulieu, Ellis, etc...

Someone will have to explain to me how a team can suck so much yet still be at the cap?

WTF is wrong with calgary? Could have done a 1 year rebuild by trading 2 freaking players. Kipper to TBL for Connolly and Malone plus a pick? Iginla to NYR for Gaborik or Dubinsky ++

Why look so far out West?!?

So you believe that if Price was there instead of Quick they would have loss?
I think that price likely could have been holding the same trophy with that team in front of him

Problem with Calgary is they have nothing coming up the pipes either, as their prospect pool is pretty thin... aside from JANKOWSKY and Bertschy

Anyone care to speculate what he wants or will get?
- eihcnerf


I'd try to get him signed to a 10 year 40-45M contract.

I doubt that works...

They'll be better with a good goalie. That's what I meant.

Kings may not have been scoring but Quick still had a far better defense in front of him than Price

I'm not saying that. What I am saying is that you can't possibly say that Price IS better than Quick, right after Quick just had an amazing playoff even if Quick's team infront of him played great he still played spectacular preformance during the entire playoffs. It's a what have you done lately? sport. And Well the pic I posted speaks for itself.

People poop on him for last season but they forget to look at our D squad and how pathetic it was. In a few years when Price is at his peak and our D is improved with the young guys coming in...we'll have a strong back end(code)
- Symba007


I'm not pooping on Price, just saying Quick had a better season last year and deserved more money than him.

He's signed for 10 years though, and I think I prefer Price's deal, shorter therefore less risky.

Quick has a contract that brings him to retirement, Price to his prime, different deals.

Quick also had a young goalie behind him.

Price was our lone hope.

Also, BUF and MTL got tougher. BOS is what it is. OTT and TO got weaker.

- hon_hon_hon


Yup Ottawa will need more than Neil to defend their kids(Karlsson notably). They lost Carkner and Konopka (much to the chagrin of Marty).

And yeah Quick has a pretty good backup behind him, he will probably not be as effective once Bernier's gone.

We need to find a better goalie than Bout d'ail to backup Price.

I believe Calgary are waiting on a good forward draft before they cash in Iginla or Kipper.

They had that other goalie in St. Louis was there for a while.
- eihcnerf


There was no way we could have kept both of them and you know it.

Gauthier was wise to sell High on Halak and buy low on Price.
