Thanks for the offer, but I'll pass .... If you re-read my second paragraph, I think you'll see that we are thinking alike ....

It's not a good idea for the long term future of the franchise to get two or three guys like that just to get in the play-offs, but they could get there quicker if they did.


- GadesnSens[EDIT], but then they'd right back where they are now in 4 years..... so not a good idea.....
was that a nice long explanation for you ....


I see where you're coming from now. Yeah we're on the same page.

how is the team starting over in 3 years
myers, mccabe, risto, zadorov pysyk on the blue line
girgens, gringo, armia, fasching compher, bailey, possler, carrier
second overall pick in this years draft, 3 second rd picks
5 picks in the top 2 rds in 2015


where does this lead anyone to think the team will be rock bottom again in 3 to 4 years?

Caps don't touch that 1st deal. If that second one is for eric it's short and if it's for Jordan I'm not sure why you'd even want him. Raymond is streaky and Orpik is well past the point of usefulness. Gilbert would be a nice add but I doubt he'd come here and I could see Gionta re-signing with the habs. Also no guarantee we draft a Sam

This big names you are trading all our assets away for will be irrelevant . We are back to drafting in the middle of the draft . We are right back where we started irrelevant and mediocre !

Crosby, Getzlaf, Giroux for Hart.


Probably be Crosby but I'd give it to Giroux for pulling his team out of the abyss and getting them to the post season.

heatley
5 points in last 3 games


- homiedclown


I was just thinking last night about Heatley. Even if he has worn out his welcome there, it must be nice to have a player of his caliber in the playoffs on your bottom 6. I was also thinking he must have that drive to win a SC still, and he's always been a champion at every level. Him and Nino on the same line is pretty dangerous, for both teams I guess, but more so for the other teams

The trade for Clutterbuck might rival the Vanek trade for the "dumbest trade that Garth Snow has made" category.

What assets? Out of Coho, Foligno, Pysyk, Hoff, Staff, the only one I'd call an Asset is Pysyk. Coho is on the line. Hoff could bring a decent return. But if for some reason Washington trades Ovi for Coho Fooligno and Pysyk, I'd say you do it.

Even with his poop work ethic. You need someone to keep fans in the seats and pucks in the net, and Ovechkin is that guy.

You are very bitter aren't you, maybe some just don't agree with it. Can't do anything about it but still don't agree with it.


For the record, I only mentioned bringing in a couple vet players to start off in the right direction that's all. Lighten up.

But Clutterbuck hits and blocks shots and occasionally scores a goal........

peggy did not hire murray, nolan and patrick to tank for 2 more years, if that was the goal darcy and rr was doing fine
