why did uncle dstrdl get another tag?
edit: Quick -- WTF?!
I hope so, kid deserves to play about 3 games and then get sent down to be a career AHLer. I'd be so pissed if one of our prospects did this.It will be absolutely hilarious if Schultz is a huge bust

#canucks sent big group (including Gillis, Gilman, Vigneault) to Toronto in an effort to woo FA Justin Shultz. Met with young d-man today.
Schultz is a little bitch and he will get rocked by that Candain High school player the Flames drafted. I mean I've hated the Ducks ever since Emilio Estevez stopped coaching them, but this is just wrong.
Justin Schultz is destiny, man.
Red_Man's destiny is to get laid.
EDIT - Joke wasn't that funny but I'm OK with that.
It's a deal Feaster had been working to complete at the NHL Draft in Pittsburgh after the Flames identified Wideman, a 29-year-old defenseman, as one of their prime targets in free agency -- Wideman would have become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
"We had Dennis Wideman right up there on top of the list," Feaster said. "We made the decision [to see] if we could get the opportunity to talk to him ahead of time. We contacted Washington; [GM] George McPhee said 'if you get a deal done, it's a fifth-round pick.
"We tried to get a deal done right through Round 5 of the draft on Saturday. Afterwards, I went back to George and said 'I think we're close. If we get a deal done next week, we'll still flip the fifth. Are you still willing to do it?' He said he was, we continued the negotiating process and we were able to get a contract signed this morning."
"We were very up-front right away with a good offer," he said. "The other thing we did, as we've done in the past, we spoke with [captain] Jarome [Iginla] and asked if he would give [Wideman] a call. He did, and Jarome sold him on why this is a great place with a great ownership and a great fan base -- the building is full every night and hockey matters."
Feaster also brought back forward Blake Comeau, who signed a one-year deal worth $1.25 million -- about half of what he made in 2011-12. Calgary grabbed Comeau on waivers from the New York Islanders, who let him go after he went scoreless in 16 games on Long Island. Comeau scored five goals and added 10 assists in 58 games with the Flames.
Calgary didn't make Comeau a qualifying offer, allowing him to become a free agent, but Feaster said that didn't mean the Flames weren't interested in having him back.
"It's good to have him back," he said. "We even talked about a two-year deal, but what I liked was that he said, 'let's do a one-year deal, because I'm better than what I showed you guys and I'm going to have a big season."
2/10Red_Man's destiny is to get laid.

Clock is ticking......

Wideman has a full no movement clause. #Flames
Why does this kid have multiple agents anyways?
When you're a huge piece of shit like he is you need several huge pieces of shit to negotiate for you. The number of huge pieces of shit necessary to negotiate for you grows exponentially with your own shittiness.

That's the first pig pic on the internet I've seen in ages that isn't pigpoopballs.jpg (google it).
And if you didn't know the story: Yakupov was tweeting replies to everybody who tweeted him, boring_as_heck from SomethingAwful started a campaign to get Yakupov to see pigpoopballs. So everybody started tweeting him (Chemmy from Pension Plan Puppets, Two line pass etc) with fake links hoping to get a reaction from Yakupov.
Unsure if he got trolled or not...
Either way... lolinternet.
