What are your guys' thoughts on Miller to the Canucks? Definitely a weird move that didn't seem quite as weird or shocking because of the way it had been rumoured/reported over the last week.

Seems weird for both sides

 

[MetatronM]

2 years at $1.5m is a great fucking deal for Dominic Moore, by the way.

 

[zroid]

Dallas will wreck next year

 

[Fata1moose]

Here you go LOL

I'm going to go hang myself.

i wouldve rather paid for Hiller what Calgary did
I'm not sure how much room there is if we run for Iginla now too; seems like it'd be cutting close with Kass, Vey, Tanev, etc.

It really is, I would have been good with 3 year x 2mil

 

[yyzjohn]

He called the Vanek / Moulson trade last year before anyone else.


:lol touche


Like others have said, the money isn't bad, it's the 3 years for a guy his age who just broke his leg twice. It's a bit concerning.

I've seen plenty of fake stuff from him too. When he's wrong and called on it he blocks people on Twitter. Guy has been doing it for years. Eklund with a mouth.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Panthers sign Derek McKenzie (who?)

[Merguson]

By the end of the contract he'll be ready to sign with Detroit.

Keep Dylan Larkin warm for us Detroit! We'll come and claim him in 3 years at the trade deadline.

The Canucks remind me a lot of the Flyers; dumping a few stars, getting younger, but still basically playoff bound (though that's much less of a sure thing in the western conference).

It's fine to say we should tank for McDavid but we just have too many pieces to really tank like the Sabres or (traditionally) the Islanders. With a stable goaltending situation and room for prospects to actually contribute, the team will likely improve over last season. We just had to scoop out all of the crap left behind from the Gillis long term plan days.

 

[Fei]

Miller is still a very good goalie. I hope he does well in Vancouver. I don't quite understand the move because it seems like the team's not quite sure which direction it wants to go.. which normally leads to mediocrity.

The fit probably isn't the greatest either because Miller can become aggitated by the media, and I'm sure Van's is worse than Buffalo's.

 

[Red_Man]

I've seen plenty of fake stuff from him too. When he's wrong and called on it he blocks people on Twitter. Guy has been doing it for years. Eklund with a mouth.

Yea, he's hit and miss, but he's had bit hits and seems to have a connection to Moulson.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Good god you'd think we didn't have a bunch of young stars on this team with the way other Avs fans are reacting to today. Did you idiots really expect a cup next year or something? My god.

 

[Tabris]

People forget that we still have the Sedins. They have been on the down swing for sure, but remember the last season they suffered from a lot of injuries and the whole Torterella saga with shot blocking bs.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Moulson to Buffalo, 5 x 5

 

[Merguson]

Matt Moulson signs with Buffalo. $25 million over 5 years.

 

[Yawnier]

Moulson to Buffalo, 5 x 5

lololol, good pickup by Buffalo. Seems a bit expensive though

Moulson to BUF 5x5

goddammit lol

yeah I'm still a believer with the sedins, really hoping to see an upswing

 

[RC]

With Miller we have tenth place locked up.

 

[Fei]

WOW, that's.. awesome.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Moulson is a nice pick up. Wonder why he'd want to be on such a terrible team though.

 

[Samyy]

With Miller we have tenth place locked up.

Yea let us finish below you please~!

Moulson is a nice pick up. Wonder why he'd want to be on such a terrible team though.

Playing the wing for McDavid/Eichel!
More likely the fact that there is very little pressure on him.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

What about Stralman? He's swedish.. so..

Too young, need old people

 

[HadesGigas]

Wow, like that deal for Moulson. (He's also now the highest paid guy on the Sabres roster)

 

[Acid08]

Havlat signs with the Devils.

 

[Red_Man]

Moulson is a nice pick up. Wonder why he'd want to be on such a terrible team though.

Yea, weird. Wonder if Bergevin made a play for him or not.

 

[jaybeeze]

Devils sign Havlat, 1 year/1.5m.

 

[Razorskin]

Havlat to the Devils

 

[Merguson]

Havlat signs with the Devils.

They're literally building their team with free agents.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

Moulson to BUF 5x5

son of a bitch.

Why hasn't this team been sold and a new GM hired already?

 

[MetatronM]

Dominic Moore has a "limited" NTC in his new contract.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Devils sign Havlat, 1 year/1.5m.

That Czech party.

 

[MPW]

wouldn't mind habs getting Vrbata but i feel he will be asking for too much $$$

 

[Unhandled Exception]

:lolololol Dater retweeting some dude comparing Stastny to Forsberg.

I think I'm done with today. This fanbase needs to lay off the weed.

 

[Red_Man]

Bergevin speaking at 3:30, seems like he may be finished unless he has a Vrbata signing in the works.

 

[Fei]

Moulson is a nice pick up. Wonder why he'd want to be on such a terrible team though.

To play with Reinhart and McDavid/Eichel.

 

[calder]

At this point I'm just happy when a FA signs in the East.

 

[Acid08]

Really want Vrbata. If all DW does is trade Stuart, sign RFA's, and sign Vrbata I'd call today a total success.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Mike Cammalleri got a 5 year deal?!!? for 25 million. How on Earth did this dude get a long term deal. Just because he had a good year last year we can forget the production he had for the last 2 years with the Habs and first few years with the Flames.

 

[Plinko]

Stralman's agent was asked if he was interested in Detroit.

His response: "No."

:lol

 

[Merguson]

:lol

Ansar Khan @AnsarKhanMLive
Wings have been told Niskanen going elsewhere.

YOU GET NO ONE

 

[ZeroGravity]

Both Niskanen and Stralman are not going to the Red Wings.

 

[Velcro Fly]

I'm going to miss Matt Niskanen

 

[ShaneB]

:LOL

I like the Orpik signing... but yeah, those are some big salary cap hits =/

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Both Niskanen and Stralman are not going to the Red Wings.

"We're too young to retire just yet"

 

[Razorskin]

Both Niskanen and Stralman are not going to the Red Wings.

Jovocop come on down

 

[Plinko]

Both Niskanen and Stralman are not going to the Red Wings.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

BRING ON JOVO

 

[Tabris]

I have a feeling MON is going to take a big dive this year.

They lost a lot of character guys, and lost Vanek.

All of that because Subban is going to cost 7-9m
