Weber is worth 7 high end assets?

Whats Crosby worth I wonder... 2-3 full NHL rosters?

If there were a St louis fan acting like a giant idiot on these boards people would be getting all over him.

It's all relative! Whether he plays every game and averages 33 points, or plays 46 games and averages 33 points. If he's not on the ice for half of every season, then he's no better than the games he does play in. I get what your saying, but if he can't stay healthy, he's a liability and not worth the hype that the Edmonton organization likes to surround him with. It's the same thing with the Wild, ie. Latendresse and Pierre Marc Bouchard. Both great players who can't seem to stay on the ice. No way PMB is worth the 4.5 million he makes. When he was healthy he was averaging just under 60 pts a season, last 2 he's averaged 30. Both Hemsky and Bouchard have had very similar careers. Very good players early in their careers and can't stay on the ice over the latter part of their careers. Both wasted the primes of their career being injured...

Aside from that, I think Hemsky has always been slightly over rated.

- MnGump


bold is true... however he now has two robot shoulders... and he finally has a player who can do what Hemsky needs... which is to put the puck in the net with a one-timer. He'll be a terminator this year if he plays with Yak and his bomb of a shot.

well, maybe not, but still, we like the kool-aid in Etown

Pronger gets traded twice for a top 6 forward, top 4 dman, 2 1sts
(after being a stanley cup and heart winner), so its really not that far off what you are claiming

But if Shea is that much of a leader and team player he would destroy a team with such a ransom and taking 12mill a season.

Sheas great, but thats just straight up shania crazy talk

First of all, neither Smid nor Sbisa (or if you will Smid + a 2nd, Sbisa + a 3rd) were top 4 dman at the time.

Second of all, you don't think adding another top 6 forward and two top prospects to be a world away value wise? Frankly this Weber proposal is almost double the Pronger haul(s) imo.

I'll just point out the Oil were bent over on that trade cause everyone knew Pronger wanted out.

Hall, Eberle, RNH, Yakupov, Smid, 1st, 1st for Weber.

Think how awesome we`d be with him.

Once again someone posting without knowing what the hell they are talking about. Some horses died. Yes. Chuckwagon horses are retired Thoroughbreds. So if it wasnt for them turning into Chuckwagon racers, they would have been dog food years ago. Check out what happens to retired horses. The rodeo keeps these horses alive and gives them a great life compared to what they would have otherwise had.

They have someone to fall back on, whereas the leafs have nothing of worth to lose.
