Dee Karl: Happy 4th Of July Isles Country and happy Wednesday Canada.

Suter and Parise both to Minny

Happy trails Parise, glad you're out of the Atlantic and the East!

So we should expect Strome to leave too?

So Minny gets both Suter and Parise. The isles get Boyes and Carkner. Besides a beautiful new arena, filled to the gills every night and being located in a hockey crazed area that the team isn't in danger of leaving in three years, what does Minny have that the Isles don't?...

She was rambeling about how we have bad luck with people named Ryan not staying here...so since Ryan Smyth left apparently no one with the name Ryan would ever want to play here.

Needless to say, if we ever did trade for Bobby Ryan we wouldn't have to worry about signing him.

Yes, best case scenairo, minus him signing here. Good luck Zach. You're probably the 2nd richest man in Minny now.....right behind Prince.

What's better, is that he left our division. Which is tough enough already.

NOW, we need our GM to grab firmly btwn his legs and make the deal for Ryan.
Lets the rags woo Rick Cash, on the downside of his career. Bobby is 25 and PRIME..
We can make the most improvement of any team in the Atl with this one trade. DONT tell me we dont have enough assets to do it. This is where a GM earns his keep. Make the trade Garth. DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's why its smart just to go right to the comments section

I'm speechless on the Ryan quote...everyone knows (except Dee) that he signed for 3 more years...looks like Detroit is pushing hard for Semin...

If I were Snow I'd call the Wild GM and see what he would want for either Brodziak, Setoguchi or Clutterbuck?

Stable ownership, and a competent front office.

"Will you still root for Zach Parise when he's on the Wild?"

Wait a minute...you rooted for Parise when he was on the Devils?!?! What kind of Islanders fan are you?

I think we should be after Semin too, sure he can be a dud at times, but when he plays, he's awesome, he has moves

Devils should rebuild. They're only good because of their trap defense

"Today is the Fourth of July in the USA..."


Actually, it's the fourth of July everywhere.

You mean they have a system that the entire team has bought into and they use it to the best of their ability. Great concept. Maybe there are other teams that want this private info..?

Been doing that since the "Who the hell is Jonas Hiller?" blog from the Olympics in 2010. I reached my final straw with that one.
