[Malakhov]

They offered him 5 millions for one season only so then he'd become a UFA next summer unless he signs with them during the season.

Modano has had serious inquries from Phoenix, Minnesota, Boston, Edmonton, Atlanta and Chicago. A report from RDS.ca had the Bruins as the front-runners with the team prepared to make an offer as soon as Tuesday.

I know we need a center... but no. I refuse to cheer for Mike Modano.

 

[yodathesoda]

I wouldn't want Kariya in Calgary he wouldn't really fit our style because he's too soft. Glen Murray however I would have loved to join the Flames damnit.

 

[Malakhov]

I don't want Kariya in Montreal either, nor Selanne. Not much forwards that interest me 'cept Forsberg, Naslund, Palffy and Satan.

And god knows none of them are gonna put on a Habs jersey anytime soon except maybe to finish off their career here as an old crippled player.

Martin Gelinas has signed with the Florida Panthers
Two-year deal

http://www2.sportsnet.ca/nhl/free_agent_tracker.html


Is Florida filling up a retirement home or a hockey team?

 

[Malakhov]

Florida need experienced players for their young prospects. It's not too bad actually. At least they're signing players unlike us! WOO WOO!

 

[Malakhov]

Stars close to signing center Mike Modano, owner Tom Hicks says. Details to come.

Shock and awe.

 

[Malakhov]

Amonte signs with the Flames, 1.8 millions a year according to Fan960.

 

[DopeyFish]

Amonte signs with the Flames, 1.8 millions a year according to Fan960.

oh wow. He'd be a very good fit imo

 

[ForzaItalia]

That's pretty cheap and a solid move for Flames if Amonte really did sign at that price.

 

[Malakhov]

Habs in the running for Satan, riiiiiight :lol
These Montreal sources blows.

 

[DopeyFish]

well at least it's better than torontos

If there's a free agent, most likely "Toronto in running" would be right beside it

 

[ForzaItalia]

Allison and Lindros will end up in Toronto with a special concussion rate.

 

[The Bookerman]

Hey, Satan is way more reliable than say.... Floppa

 

[Malakhov]

Looking at the Flyer's D right now is scary.

Hatcher
Desjardins
Rathje
Therrien

Goddamn.

 

[calder]

According to www.spectorshockey.net (Yeah... I know :lol )

You're dead to me now. Spector has skyrocketed to the top of my list of hated sports media figures in the last year, and he just barely qualifies as a media figure. :lol



But come on I'm away from a computer for one day and...

Holik, who was bought out by the New York Rangers after the NHL and the Players' Association agreed to a new labour deal, signed a $12.75-million US, three-year contract with the Thrashers on Tuesday.

WHAT. THE. SHIT. How the fuck did Holik get over 4 a year for 3 years? Does this mean that Naslund is going to get to get 12mil due to the simple scientific fact that he's worth at least 3 Holik's?

All the other signings look pretty logical and, *gasp*, reasonable.

You notice how they're all two-year deals? They'll have plenty of cap room in two years to go after UFA's again.

 

[SantaC]

compare Satans and Forsberg's numbers in the playoffs.

Yeah thought so.

 

[The Bookerman]

I meant rumor wise.

 

[Malakhov]

Carolina sign Cory Stillman.

 

[Malakhov]

Isles signed Zhitnik, 4 years deal.

 

[Malakhov]

Peter Vandermeer signs with Montreal, OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! WE WILL WIN THE CUP NEXT YEAR!

 

[spliced]

Malik signs with the Rangers.

EDIT and Straka.

GOD DAMMIT
I was hoping Lowe would do something on my drive home from work.


DO SOMETHING DAMMIT.

Nah, not going to happen... I bet Neidermayer probably weighing his options with Vancouver and the Oilers

 

[dem]

I dont even want stupid Scott Niedermayer. I want a bloody center!!

 

[The Bookerman]

I dont even want stupid Scott Niedermayer. I want a bloody center!!

modano?

 

[dem]

A center thats not Modano!! :lol

 

[bishoptl]

Marek Malik? Sather can have him - big guy who rarely used his size to full advantage.

 

[The Bookerman]

A center thats not Modano!! :lol

Yeash, not much left...

I guess you want a big centerman like Jason Allison.

 

[Malakhov]

Allison signed with the leafs, not much point in naming his name now

 

[calder]

Flames sign.... Tony Amonte? :\

Nevermind cheering for him, it'll be a struggle just to not cheer for him to sprain his ankle every time he jumps over the boards.

 

[The Bookerman]

Allison signed with the leafs, not much point in naming his name now

They wish

 

[Malakhov]

They wish

Huh? Allison did indeed sign with the Leafs hehe.

 

[Malakhov]

Er at 1.8 millions a season who cares, the guy put up 50 pts last season, that's a very sweet deal.

 

[dem]

Huh? Allison did indeed sign with the Leafs hehe.

Have you seen that reported anywhere but leafs lunch??

 

[dem]

Apparently the Flames have signed McCarty aswell.

Scatchard has signed, team not revealed yet.

Apparently its Boston

 

[The Bookerman]

Huh? Allison did indeed sign with the Leafs hehe.

It's not official that's for sure.

Just like modano in Boston.

 

[BigJonsson]

BREAKING NEWS!!!!





Markus Naslund and Peter Forsberg are Swedish!

 

[dem]

Seems Modano has signed a 5 year deal in Dallas.

 

[Malakhov]

Seems Modano has signed a 5 year deal in Dallas.

Bunch of drama queens.

 

[Barrage]

Good. Modano back in Dallas. At least the team isn't completly crumbling.

 

[Kifimbo]

Canadian teams are sleeping or what?

 

[SA-X]

sigh....fuck this salary cap bullshit. Wings can't even resign Datsyuk and Zetterberg, must less go after free agents.

Well at least the Blues are stuck in cap hell also so maybe we'll still be able to win the central division this year. :lol

 

[Malakhov]

SA-X: Welcome to how the other fans of small market teams felt years after years.

 

[yodathesoda]

Apparently the Flames have signed McCarty aswell.

That would be awesome. Perfect match for the team.

EDIT: 2 Years 1.6 Mill that's a steal and a fucking half for the Flames imo

 

[Pochacco]

Niedermayer Niedermayer Niedermayer.
Get off your ass Lowe.

The Oilers don't necessarily need a superstar forward imo (although it would be nice).
I want a great consistent player like Nidermayer that can help keep the streaky team on track...

 

[Alucard]

As long as the Pens AT LEAST get Kovalev, I'll be a content man. Sure, it would be great if they got another big name, but I just don't see that happening with the way the management is taking their time right now. Wait and see though.
