  • Re: 2011 NHL Off-Season: The Puck Boat edition

    Since the draft, the Wings have supposedly been shopping Hudler like a $5 whore (ha, irony). Even Toronto hasn't taken the bait.

        So is Buffalo the first team to be in cap trouble? They're just under the limit with no back-up goalie under contract (and only 20 player signed, total).

          Free agency started at midnight. You can sign players if you want. Just a thought.

          And also they had already signed somebody (albeit only POS Mike Rupp), but it's not like any of us expect Mountie to have any idea what he's talking about anyway.

            Just read that the Wings signed Garnett Exelby. He can be okay. Was mostly a character type player for the Thrashers, and then bounced around Toronto and Chicago (in Rockford mostly for Chicago). I would assume that XLB goes to training camp, but finds himself in Grand Rapids at the start of the season.

              so the Leafs big acquisition is...Tim Connolly???

              Also, just saw a report on TSN that Talbot's deal with the Flyers is a violation of the cap, but they won't be penalized. Paul Holmgren is so dumb, he signs a player to an illegal contract and the league won't even punish him.

                They need to learn to cheat more creatively, like the Rangers did with Richards. It's as simple as making a majority of the compensation in years 1 and 2 signing bonus instead of actual salary. That's how you get around it.

                          Hmmm RT @helenenothelen: Dean Lombardi on re-signing Doughty: "I am getting the feeling on Drew that unfortunately this could take a while."
                          C'mon people, get Doughty out of LA!

                            Doughty must be looking at the Wiz and Ehrhoff deals and figures he's at least an $8 million defenseman in this market.

                              Semin for Bogosian??

                              Semin has a cap hit of $6.7M for next season. Take away Poti's $2.9M and they should have room for Bogosian, Alzner and Brouwer.

                                That and Lombardi's a tightwad when it comes to signing RFA's. This might be the first one he's had where someone might actually offer sheet the guy. On top of it, the agent for Doughty is Nabby's agent, who held out on Lombardi for a month into the regular season back in '03.
