Ryan McDonagh is the only defenseman on a EL contract. Stralman and Del Zotto are now off them. Stepan and Hagelin are forwards

I think it's 60-40 he ends up here. I'm at the point where I will be disappointed if he doesn't.

I will not be a happy camper if he doesn't end up here.

There has been reports about Enstrom (from Bill himself) and some reports that Vancouver was not happy with the play of Edler during the second half of the season. I dont know if hes available but he is an UFA after next year. Doesn't hurt to make a call (neither of us know who Homer has called).
- stveshdy


I would make an educated guess that Edler isn't on the market. Enstrom possibly.

Owners will sell their interest to keep ONE player?

I just don't buy that, man.

- LordStanley88


I think some of the Nashville guys must be sick to their stomach over what is happening. This is a rich man's game. A board of 10 owners is probably what caused the Preds to fumble Suter and Weber for more than two years.

Honestly, we have no idea of any player thats available b/c most players that can be had aren't going to be leaked (unless your Columbus) b/c that hurts the value of the player if its public knowledge.

Hope the Weber saga is over today. Take your 4 1sts and be happy.
- bird_dog


I Hope he is a flyer -- here is what if we get weber, it'll costs us more than 4 1sts. I think it'll be like, they don't match and we trade Jake and Mesz and Bourdon for 2 of our 1sts back.....As long as we can keep Schenn and Couturier I'll be happy.

And they're all defenseman on EL deals? Done wasting my time here.
- MJL


this was an A to B conversation C yourself out of it. We dont need your wisdom believe me. When ever you are confronted with facts you say nothing...stop trying to provoke a reaction from me....your not getting...and no im not afraid of the ban hammer....Its just that i dont find you significant enough to receive a ban. Only deb placey is worth the ban in my eyes.... . You should change your avatard to this:

How do you not just come out, after analyzing contract language of course and say youre matching Shea Weber if thats your intention?

I thought that the final offer that Holmgren made would be a little stronger then it was. And I've changed my stance of not moving off of that, because I now know what that offer was from a credible source. I would increase the offer to remove Read and add Voracek.

- MJL


tell Nashville -- don't match and we'll trade you Jake, Mesz, MAB for 2 of the firsts back. so it'll be Jake, Mesz, MaB and 2 firsts for weber.

I think Weber has no problem with staying in Nashville. Sure, he signed the sheet, but probably to get ownership off the dime. The worst that can happen, if they don't match is that he becomes a rich man in a great organization. If they do match then he becomes a rich man in a place where he is emotionally attached and ownership has shown him the love. I don't buy the disgrunted player scenario if he stays.

I honestly think he wants go somewhere where he feels he can win a cup....and after Suter left I dont think he feels he can in Nashville just my humble opinion

cause if they would've done that, the flyers would've moved on and made moves (nash, doan). they want the flyers to agonize over it for putting them in that position to begin with.

Gotta agree, I don't think Shea had any problem staying in Nashville if Suter stayed.
