Is anything happening tomorrow?

 

[Revenant]

What you gonna do Western Conference, when Handzusmania runs wild on you?

 

[Merguson]

Is anything happening tomorrow?

Tim Connolly sweepstakes.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Also, lol, at this rate only half the Stars roster the Ducks played yesterday will be on the ice again for Wednesdays game.

 

[BigJonsson]

Is anything happening tomorrow?

Lots of talk

 

[Sanjuro]

CONFIRMED!

 

[DopeyFish]

Canucks extend Higgins 2.5m 4 years

They now have 1.3 million to sign 5 players next year

 

[Cake Boss]

Would be awesome if one of those prospects is Spooner.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I like this trade for Vancouver. Maybe this means Gillis will be moving/buying out a lot of contracts in the off-season.

Jagr to Boston!? Fark.

 

[Acid08]

Market for Clowe is quickly vanishing :lol

 

[KernelPanic]

Suddenly we find out he is going to Pittsburgh instead.

Probably buying out, no one is taking on salary with cap going down next year.

Where did you hear this?

It's been confirmed...and not by minor league clown TSN reporting.

Basically. If we move Luongo and buy out one of Booth/Ballard, we get an extra 10 mio.

Looks like a troll

Oh well

[Wingfan19]

Red Wings are not doing anything and, for the first year, I'm happy about it. Holland getting rid of more high draft picks and prospects would be infuriating.

But what if he was ACCUMULATING draft picks?

If we can trade Filppula and or White for picks, we should do it. Wings have no intentions of re-signing White anyways and Filppula will be asking for like 5 mil, which is a joke, especially after the season he's having.

 

[Merguson]

Pierre LeBrun said the Jagr trade call could be an hour away.

This is totally a perfect opportunity for a team to swoop in and steal Jagr isn't it?

 

[apocalidiot]

3 years at around 800,000(not including bonuses he may have hit to make it up to 2.7 mill)
3 years at 3.08 million
1 year at 2.25 million
1 year at 700,000


not bad for being a scrub!

But knowing you suck so badly? You can't put a price on that

 

[DopeyFish]

If the Higgins extension is true (who knows at the moment) the Canucks are forced to move luongo

So much pressure now

 

[Sanjuro]

He wasn't the one talking about it though. We know better than to listen to nobodies now.

I like to think as Jagr is on his way to the dallas airport mario lemieux will swoop in on a helicopter with a huge tethered magnet and pick up the car and bring it to Pittsburgh.

 

[Sanjuro]

I think it's pretty rad to have both a player who is top three in points on our team and a survivor of NHL '94 in the same package.

 

[Keslord]

If the Higgins extension is true (who knows at the moment) the Canucks are forced to move luongo

With Roy on, the Canucks can now give up Luongo for less.

Booth is probably done in the offseason, too - shame, I really liked him when I watched him in Florida.

 

[bonesmccoy]

So Nieuwendyk has now traded Morrow, Roy, Ryder and Jagr. What's left, Louis Ericsson and Jamie Benn?

 

[KernelPanic]

Teams everywhere are lining up for a .904 SV% goalie with an ugly contract + penalty when he retires.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

lol, Jagr.

 

[DopeyFish]

Teams everywhere are lining up for a .904 SV% goalie with an ugly contract + penalty when he retires.

Gillis said so, must be true

 

[Keslord]

Teams everywhere are lining up for a .904 SV% goalie with an ugly contract + penalty when he retires.

His GAA/S% aren't really reflective of how he's played this season.

But no, I believe he'll be going for scraps now.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Where's Socreges? Wasn't he due back in April?

 

[Sanjuro]

Hearing the trade is a conditional second rounder.

 

[KernelPanic]

Nick Kypreos ‏@RealKyper
Spec has return in #Bruins Jagr deal what Iggy was going to be. Khoklachev, Bartkowski+2nd. I can confirm different prospects

 

[ActStriker]

I'm okay with this

edit: spoke too soon

 

[Spl1nter]

nvm mind, return was different. Seems like a good trade for bruins.

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 1m
DAL will receive prospects Lane MacDermid and Cody Payne (Plymouth) as part of the Jagr trade with BOS.

 

[Keslord]

Renaud Lavoie ‏@RenLavoieRDS 9m
Now with Jaromir Jagr to be a Bruins soon, Boston won't be a possible destination anymore for Ryane Clowe. #transactions2013

The homer in me wants to say Clowe is gonna go to Vancouver now.

He's probably not, though. I could see him going to Minny.

You totally have his destination right in your post, now that the Flyers missed out on Jagr they will double their offer for Clowe.

 

[bishoptl]

I'm okay with Roy for a few months. Ballard can GTFO, I never liked his game in Florida and he's done nothing to prove otherwise in Vancouver. On your bike, missus.

Jags to Bruins? trololol awesome

This is the actual prospects, plus conditional second.

Not bad.

Guy is better than our entire team on the PP.

I feel like based on those prospects it would be a 2nd that could either become another pick or 1st based on playoff performance.

 

[Keslord]

Don't think so. My gut tells me Vanek will be a Flyer by noon PST tomorrow instead

Get rid of Luongo, Ballard, and Booth. That's a lot of freed up cap to bump Roy's pay by 1 or 1.5m yearly.

 

[Sanjuro]

Depends on the deal. I doubt it though. Either way, I'm stoked.

NHL '94 BELIEVE.

Fuck yes. Pretty much peanuts.

Hey, Zeus!

The next PIT/BOS game is going to be fucking awesome.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

That's still $4M+ for a third-line centre. With a shrinking cap that won't happen. With centres at a premium a team will throw money at Roy and Filppula.

http://capgeek.com/free-agents/?year_id=2013&team_id=-1&position_id=C&fa_type_id=2

On this list, only Roy (29), Cervenka (27), and Weiss (29) are centres under 30 making over $3M this year (Filppula is a LW).

 

[CCF23]

I LOVE the Derek Roy trade because it signifies a culture change on our third line. No more pluggy Pahlsson types. With this addition, it's clear the third line is going to be a skill line, which is when we're most successful.

Price was right, too. Really happy.

 

[Pochacco]

Roy looks like a good fit for the Canucks, at least on paper.
Same with Jagr in Boston.

Oilers in a weird spot. Most of the bubble teams ahead of them have been buying (Blues, Canucks, possibly Red Wings and Columbus). I wouldn't mind giving up a meh prospect and a 4th rounder for Mark Streit

Given the hookers and cocaine level deals given out to good but not great centers recently, 4.5 mil is actually close to market price for Roy.
