There are 61 fans in Ohio, and they all want to keep him?
Sorry, had to.

My favorite part is when Eklund asks for clarification on what "public" means.

no sh*t howson isn't close to dealing Nash, he's asking for a ridiculous return for a 60 Pts guy making 8 million

Its going to be a long summer of this soap opera. At this point you can't keep him because every time the team hits a rough patch (which will happen often), the media will have a field day on whether or not hes getting traded. Howson needs to cut his loses, I'm not saying give him away but begin listening to reasonable offers.

Nash won't go for that, he wants out of there at this point.

It's too bad Howsen is ruining this team...they actually have a solid fan base and could easily be in the middle of the pack in terms of revenue.
...if they don't wake up and fire the guy they will find themselves in a hole they can't get out of.
That move should've been done when that dummy went public...I guess it's there own damn fault now.

Can you imagine that phone call...I woulda LOVED to have been a fly on the wall when Snow got the no go.
I imagine his face was like this....

Bingo. The Jackets franchise is over-valuing Nash.
Granted he is the face of the franchise and they need a face, but, time to get realistic already.
Instead of asking for an entire line from another team, they should explore a straight up trade for another teams stud.
Maybe something like Getzlaf for Nash.

howson is an absolute farce and an embarrassment to the game of hockey.

Bitter he didnt want to go to Ott huh. You people are getting old with this 60 pt player crap. He is a top tier player. He hasnt had crap for support. He's be around 40-60 pt players.
Imagine if they mend the fences and Ryan Johansen develop's into the talented kid he is. Also imagine if Brassard got back to the form he was at a couple of years ago nearly a pt per pt before suffering injuries. Nash is a big deal player.

That deal doesnt help the Ducks. But a Nash package for a Bobby Ryan package could go for both sides.
