[quote=JVR_42_PK81]Than why haven't they announced it? And why are you the only person who knows? It does make some sense because he is a really good possess

I'm not sure why it hasn't been announced, they probably have to go through the process, it may take more than a day....I sat at his table while he chatted with Daniel Winnik explaining to him that he should go to the Jets seeing they were offering more and the likelihood of him playing on the 2nd, or 3rd line rather than 3rd or 4th in Toronto......give it a couple days

I'd take Penner on the Jets. Want him to stay in shape? Make him play in front of friends and family! He's got two cups and is a big body, I would see nothing wrong with giving him a chance.

He may as well sign with the Leafs. It will be the easiest team to make out of camp.

I think the Gooch is KHL bound. He didn't impress last season and that was in a UFA contract year to boot.

Zet and dat only played 45 games each last year
They will be a different team if those 2 play 75+ games each

- MTL1


those guys were healthy during the lockout, and detroit only snuck into the playoffs on the last day of the season.

They are not longer a contender, but probably still gonna finish 7th,8th, or 9th

really? a team that was 13th in goals is gonna be easier to make than a team that outscored only the expansion sabres? (nucks)

27 points for setoguchi, thats top 6 for vancouver!

says the nucks fan, way easier to make a lottery team like the nucks over a playoff team like the leafs.

Setoguchi. What a waste. Too bad he's chosen to waste such talent by being a prima donna with no heart. Tsk Tsk.

Setoguchi to the Islanders makes literally zero sense. They already have, like, 15 forwards on NHL contracts (Tavares, Okposo, Grabovski, Kulemin, Nielsen, Grabner, Strome, Nelson, Lee, Bailey, Clutterbuck, Cizikas, Conacher, McDonald, Martin). I'd take Setoguchi over the last two; I'd take the first 13 forwards over Setoguchi.

If the Isles are going to take a flyer on a UFA, it'll be a defenseman- guys like Sami Salo, Derek Morris, or Raphael Diaz make sense.

so...the flyers:

trade away richards and carter. both have 2 cups now

then they sign bryzgalov to the worst contract imaginable, and later buy him out.

they trade away bobrovsky who later wins a vezina

they trade jvr for schenn


yet somehow you think you can try and troll the leafs? nice try.

- sensnucksnocups


One how am i trolling the leafs? I think the leafs getting him is unrealistic.

Two flyers got great value for richards and carter and had the flyers kept them thwy would be short2 cups. Bryzgalov was overpaid but he was dtill a good goalie. Masons stats are not that much better than bryz in philly.

Bobrovsky won the vezina in a short year playing 38 games... not a huge accomplishment. And that playoff performance was disgusting.

Jvr for schenn was the only bad deal

I like the he only played 38 games so its not that impressive. He got called the best goalie in the best league that's a huge accomplishment no matter what.

Isles should be going after every guy out there, grabo and kulemin are not big upgrade for a team that was 5th worst and had already given up 1st rounder next year. They remind me od avs in 2011 when they held 2bd overall pick and just few days later traded 2012 first rounder for varlamov..

In 2012 i expected holmgren to win adams, really at first his trades od carter and richards and sign of bryzgalov look phenomenal, giroux played amazing with hartnell and jagr, bryz was solid all was looking good and jackets were dead last with carter and la traded for carter and barely made playoffs, but kings won cup and another one this year...it was a fluke
