The Corey Schneider signing was a fair deal all around. Doesn't screw us with anything. I was hoping more closer to $3.5M though to match players like Tuuka Rask.

Tallon should go through with the Lou deal for the perfect trade ( nothing of value). Lou only wants FLA, Schnieder contract signed, FA around the corner? Lou's value is dropping further and further each day.

Considering Gillis announced the Schneider deal before it was even penned, probably means there's already a working agreement on Luongo with Florida. I doubt he would've announced it this early otherwise.

Not long now til Jordan Staal signs with Carolina. Mckenzie brings up a good point that if he didn't sign for 10 years 6m in Pittsburgh then he'll probably take the same, and not less, in Carolina. Would Canes fans be comfortable with that?

Short: Yes.

Long: I have a feeling he'll perform well playing with his brother and he's more than capable of being a top 1 or 2 line center for us, and he'd be worth every penny.

Luongo will get you guys in the playoffs, you don't need to start being disappointed until he lets in 8 goals during a playoff game.

$33m+ in cap space available. If we don't pick up some FAs...

...you'll end up with Tim Thomas on your roster. 5 mil cap hit and if he doesn't play, ownership doesn't have to pay him. Since Thomas is already living in Colorado, he could even make appearances at games.

Meanwhile, two Glendale residents seek to overturn the city's deal with a referendum on the November ballot. The activists, aided by about two dozen volunteers, have until early July to file the necessary 1,862 signatures. They said they had nearly 700 as of Thursday.

Turns out Patrik Elias did steal the SC winning puck:

http://t.co/ZtuNdCKL

Did he keep the puck? Toss it to a fan? Hand it to veteran goalie Marty Brodeur as a keepsake?
On Wednesday, Elias finally addressed the accusations: Yes, indeed, he picked up the puck. But he didn't toss it in the stands or to his goalie; in fact, he couldn't recall what he did with it.
"I grabbed it when the whistle blew. I had it in front of me and I picked it up with my stick. I went over to Marty (Brodeur) and then I sat on the bench and I think I left it there," Elias told the Star Ledger.
Elias vowed to double-check his equipment bag to see if the puck had ended up there. And wouldn't you know it, that's exactly where it was!

According to Goalie's guild, Montreal has the worst organizational depth at goal. Luongo to Montreal? HOMETOWN BOY RETURNS.

Price signed for 15 years confirmed.

Timmins said they were looking for a goalie in the draft but couldn't find one.

Hey Heretic,

Timo Pielmier didn't get a qualifying offer from Calgary.

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Haha should we waste a tear on him or should we save them for the inevitable "Teemu Retires" headlines this weekend?

Edit: I have a feeling this weekend is going to be worse than the draft weekend...

Not smarter then the average poster.

Looks like he called Italy "major twats"?


Anyways I was watching a video on the Subban family done by The Score, and it's pretty funny Malcom only started playing goalie 5 years ago. He was a defense men up until then and decided to switch for whatever reason.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marco_Materazzi

After the final, the confrontation resulted in a major controversy as Zidane accused Materazzi of insulting his sister and mother. Additionally, Materazzi claimed that after he had grabbed Zidane's jersey, Zidane sarcastically said to him "If you want my shirt, I will give to you afterwards". Materazzi then revealed that he replied, "preferisco quella puttana di tua sorella" (I prefer the whore that is your sister), which resulted in the headbutt.[6][7] Three British tabloid newspapers, The Daily Star, The Daily Mail and The Sun, alleged that Materazzi had called Zidane "the son of a terrorist whore." Materazzi took legal action against all three newspapers and the allegations were later withdrawn,he accepted that it was his fault and apologized to Zidane.

LOL I've seen the headbutt 6,000 times but never knew the reason for it, that's pretty funny. Soccer is still shit though.
