I'd have to drop a line to Knoobs if I were Homer and ask what's really up with this guy? If anybody would know if he'd be a good fit here, it would probably be Mike.

Right. And if knuble says something like "you know Paul I am a free agent". I would hope he hears dial tone by the time those words come out of his mouth.

And you don't win any by signing other team's headaches.

Washington's 5th all time goal scorer, in his prime, and the Caps don't want him back? Kinda makes you scratch your head and say hmmmmm....

Nothing Washington does surprises me.

Call me crazy, which my beautiful wife does often, I feel homer will make his move in the next few weeks. By August, we will pretty much see our team. Besides maybe a few camp surprises (4rth line)

I don't know. Im usually a "where there's smoke there's fire" kind of guy but with Semin I've seen no hard evidence the guy is the coach killer and lazy mope people think he is. It always in the end just comes back to his ethnicity and making assumptions based on that and that's just sad.

If the option is give up on Read and Jake for Ryan or put a team out on the ice including Semin, Read and Jake I'd sooner put my money on the latter being the better team.

Can I have my cake and eat it too?

Get semin
Then trade Voracek and read for Ryan

Taylor Leier seems like he's got some really good promise.

Good to see Kukkonen has some success.

People gotta make the rumors. The internet won't make traffic by itself.

I am longing to see Meszy play again. Sorely missed in the playoffs.

I think we're all a bit shell shocked at the lack of moves this summer

Not all of us. There were quite a few people in here saying things like "I hope they merely tweak the team," or "I hope they stand pat," etc.
