he will never go away.

Are you saying Hejduk is like a bad rash, matty?

 

[puckhead]

he will never go away.

fortunately, the Canuck killer charactistics seem to have faded over time.
He still led the Avs against us this year, but it was only with 2 points (and he was a -5).
the year before, 6 pts in 5 games; 08/09 - 6pts; 07/08 - 8 pts...
he's got 9 game winning goals against us in 76 games played. how goofy is that?

this was why Dash . he used to kill us

 

[dash]

Yeah, Hedjuk is a Flames killer as well (maybe not as much as he used to be).

Wild have reportedly signed Mikael Granlund to a 3 year, 2.7 million dollar deal...

Report: Wild sign Granlund to three-year, $2.7 million deal

 

[puckhead]

bit of a tangent, but Luke Richardson will be named the new head coach of the Binghamton Senators.
Nice to see him move up in the Sens world. He seemed to have really settled into a leadership role at the end of his playing career

Not a signing yet, but Jason Gregor of Team 1260 in Edmonton is reporting that the Oilers have offered Ryan Smyth a two year extension to remain with the Oil. Dollar figures to be in the $2 million per year range.

 

[pixburgher66]

Man do the Oilers and Smyth have a bromance.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Pens just extended Martin 2 more years for 3.9 per.....

Somebody better check on sbb pronto...

You shut your dirty whore mouth.

Pretty sure there's no one on a more prominent trading block...

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

maybe this makes him more easy to trade?

 

[pixburgher66]

I'm really ready for the rumormill to pick up...I have an odd obsession with following trades/signings. July 1st, I hope you're more fun than Deadline Day was...

I know he tailed off at the end of last year but Smyth still put up 46 points.

$2M is a pretty cheap price for that kind of production.

That was a gift just for you. I didn't want your heart getting too complacent,

 

[puckhead]

$2M is a pretty cheap price for that kind of production.

the concern is that with the young guns healthy, there isn't room for Smyth in to the top six anymore.
especially when you add a potential Yakupov into the mix.


ergo... rumour mill time - Edm trades the #1 pick to CBJ, and takes Murray.

I think Renney played him into the ice in the first half of the season, and that was probably the cause of his decline in the second half. Besides, this avoids another tear jerker at Edmonton International Airport.

 

[pixburgher66]

It really doesn't make a ton or sense for EDM to take another forward...
