Sorry Toc - Great plan but Doan isn't coming here. He's already played in front of Bryz and he ain't gonna make that mistake again!!

You mean when he was runner-up for the Vezina in Phoenix?

Honestly? Money. And the offer to play next to a young Giroux. I'm not saying that these factors weigh heavier than family/friends/home; but I would say that we can/will out bid the other teams in terms of money, and playing next to Giroux has to be enticing. But then again, Pitt has Crosby as well.
- steelydan


Again, watching his interview, there is no way I got the impression that was the issue. Each person can draw their own conclusion. You may be right 9 times out of 10, just my opinion that it doesn't apply here.

In terms of playing with Giroux, I think he would rather play with Crosby who is his friend and a slightly better player when healthy.

Pretty slow here too, for better or for worse. At least there's quarterly stuff to work on now, hopefully it makes the day go by a bit quicker.

Devils get Salvador signed to 3 yr extension. They've spent nearly $10 million this off-season, where are they getting this money again??

No way we get Carle under $5m.

Oh well.

Silly season goes on. We are all antsy - some news is better than bad news.

If there were more Devils fans, that Salvador deal would immediately shoot to the top of the capgeek's top 10 bought out contracts.

Eklund's latest tweet makes little sense.

I hope we don't win the Parise and Suter bidding war. Giroux deserves that kind of money after his current deal is up.

I'm ok with trading some forward depth for a top line talent at a reasonable cap hit. Ryan yes, Nash no. If Voracek wants 4mil per, he can go in the package for Bobby. Voracek, Read, MAB, 1st. May be an overpayment, but it's not like we are not known for that.

Carle can walk for any contract over 5mil per. Give Gus a shot at being the full-time #6, maybe sign a depth 5-6 d-man to battle it out with Gus and Lilja.

Weber is the big prize next off-season, he has to be licking his chops at the way this UFA season is going so far.

I think Bryz will have a better year that last season. He may never be the all-star goalie he was in Phx under Lava's system, but he can still be a solid tender, which is all the talent in front of him will need.

LOL. I had to read that a few times before I understood that he was insinuating that the Devils know what Parise has decided.

Yea, which is probably a poor assumption on his part.

Nashville would be getting robbed in that deal. I don't see why Timonen would waive a NTC to go there, when it is his last contract year and he wants his best shot at a cup. Not sure about Hartnell, but he seems to like it here. Simply put, we'd still have to attach a few prospects on that deal in order to get Nashville's attention, and when all is said and done, our team will look worse than it does right now.

Sorry, but the trade makes little hockey sense.

- steelydan

Ok...I agree we would probably have to add a puck. Should
Have said that. However cap wise it would work
And both players are a known quantity to Poile. With Suter
Going this year (likely) they need to get something
For Weber NOW. Maybe add a 1st and a 2nd to the deal.
Now we can focus on a less expensive D man (or even Carle
For that matter) and a winger.
