Trade deadline: Rumours of Nash moving, Semin's going, the Lightning need a goalie...nothing happens except the biggest news of the day Hodgson for Kassian (both haven't done a thing yet). The best deal happened before the deadline when Jeff Carter went to the LA KINGS who did the impossible and won the Cup as an 8th seed.
Draft: Luongo's getting traded, Nash is on the move, the Flames are going to blow it up and rebuild, Edmonton will trade down, etc.
What happened? Teams just drafted.
July 1st: Parise is going to sign with??? Suter will be in??? Of course they still haven't signed but I don't blame them it's a major life decision that should not be taken lightly. If I was a GM I would be going hard after Parise, he's a heart and soul kind of player. I say he goes back to NJ.
Schultz goes to Edmonton? Of course, you want to be a part of the young guys who one day will be good then all their contacts come up and the Oilers can't afford them all and trade them or let them go except Eberle because he's the best player on that team. If the Oilers can't keep those young guns together they will be a NHL farmer team just developing teams for the good ones with the $.
A trade went down yesterday...Derek Roy goes to Dallas for Ott and ... what are the Sabres thinking? Is Roy on a decline? Because I think he's a great addition to Dallas especially since they moved Riberio. Now Jagr is there...$4.5 million for
I heard the Rangers are pulling out of the Nash sweepstakes. Now I hear the Flyers are the front runners with Carolina now in the mix. Why haven't they pull the trigger on a deal yet? Actually I think Nash is overrated and I wouldn't give up what the Blue Jackets are asking.
Brodeur gets an agent to test free agency...if he signed anywhere else other than NJ that would have been so weird.
The Flames get Wideman and haven't moved much. So I guess they are not rebuilding. Honestly it would be hard to trade the faces to the franchise in Iggy and Kipper.
Why hasn't Luongo been traded? Then we have some $ to go after Suter or Parise. $4.6 million to Garrison for 6 years after he's had only 1 good year...I am nervous about this signing.
Why haven't the Leafs got a goalie yet? Over pay if you have too. Burke, you get a goalie you will make the playoffs and keep your job. If not, this is you last season. Supposedly Halak, Luongo, T.Thomas, and Bernier are all available. The time is NOW!
Montreal inks C.Price to $6.5 million a year. The dude is only 24 years old and he has almost 300 games under his belt. Good move by the Canadiens.
I am a frustrated NHL fan... just waiting for something BIG to shake down. Will it ever happen? Who knows...maybe Luongo stays with Vancouver, Nash plays for Columbus, Tim Thomas enjoys a year off, and the Leafs & Oilers miss the playoffs again. :(
