If Pronger can stay healthy and keep up his game for a few more years, the deal won't look so bad. But it's definitely risky to give up two first rounders. Lupul is a decent player, too. I think the Ducks made out pretty good.

Oh, didn't realize philly gave up 2 first rounders. Hmm, beats me i nthat case, still looks good to me
 
Reinsdorf offer is 148M, which after Gretzky's take and the League's take... means basically nothing for a lot of the creditors. This is going to go over well in the papers.

I'm tanking for Kabanov!
Ah no Tavares, Duchene, Hedman for the Maple Leafs and very likely no Schenn or Kane. Time to start tanking for Hall, Granlund, and Kabanov.

The NHL doesn't run out on their franchises.

And Stamkos
Yeah, they have no excuse to be shitty next season. They hardly did last season, either, but I can understand the coaching debacle.

MSP is still available. He has raw potential.

Not sure what you mean. Just saying that undercutting Balsillie by 70+ million USD is going to be a black-eye from the investment community, especially anyone based in Phoenix.

It was sarcasm. That's what Bettman said about why they don't want Balsille to have the team and move to Canada. Even though they ran out on Quebec and Winnipeg who were in much better shape.

cant wait until season starts so i dont see you posting those pens cups pics all the time.

Your team has been spoiled with championships, so you have nothing to complain about. :p

Back-to-back! Let's go Pens!

Lupul is a bum so I don't give a damn about that but Sbisa showed potential. Draft picks are draft picks so I am not too upset about that.

Yay, Kane from Vancouver Giants going to Atlanta now. That guy was awesome with the Giants :D
 
Does anyone want to guess how many swedes that will go in the first round?

I like that Lupul will be back with the ducks btw, good trade from ducks eyes.
