Well BBQ time, everyone enjoy their 4th of July.

If I see Holmgren, I will let him know Free Agency has begun.

yea I don't understand this Nash and Ryan talk now... Leaving the cupboard a 'lil bare if you ask me.

W/O JVR to offer, we really do not have another young chip to part with that anyone would consider a main piece.

Unless someone for Nash or Ryan considers Simmonds, (Columbus wouldn't want Jake back) in a small package

- puckhead17

without undoing all that homer built last year, I can't see how anything he could offer now (Jake+Mez+pick) can't be outdone by someone else for either of those guys. For Ryan Homer would be brain-dead for doing it, he's a UFA in three years, so in all likelihood Anaheim might look to move him in a year or two. Nash is just overpaid, I don't see how taking on that contract is conducive to building a balanced cup team.

I guess I'll head over to Matt Carle's house ... I just KNOW there's got to be a big fireworks celebration on tap.

This is the best time to get in there with a deal, while hes hurt and vulnerable.

You give a fair deal, maybe even over pay, and you tell him this deal WILL NOT be available at the trade deadline. Take it or leave it.

So if Suter's deal allows Carle o seek & find $6 or $6+ a year, does Coburn & Mez look & feel underpaid?

Is the market completely ridiculous & out of control now?

Coburn's gotta be kicking himself right now for taking that extension or he's just that much of a team guy.

Poile says Predators never got a chance to make a counter-offer. Clearly irked.
