I really dont know if Hamhuis will waive to go anywhere other than San Jose, LA or Anaheim (to play with the 2 former canuck, still d-bags) mostly because he is Mr Family Dan, Mr Community Dan, Mr Christian Dan and doesnt want to go that far from family or uproot them ... I guess maybe Chicago and Dallas have been the most interested in him sending multiple scouts to see him play

Botchford had an interesting thing the other day ... He will feel it if he chooses not to waive ... being from PG/Smithers ... Its not like a Sundin thing where he went back to Sweden the offseason after he didnt waive his NTC at the deadline ... Hamhuis will go home and he will hear it from the canucks fans in Prince George :noidea:


I don't get why people would be upset at someone exercising a well-known clause in their contract. It's not like he's demanding a trade THEN exercising his NTC. That level of douchery is reserved for shitheads currently patrolling the second line on German League team.

Hamhuis has the right to go where he wants on his current deal. Seems pretty open and closed to me.

Sadly Chris Neil is in the same boat and there is no talk of an extension. :burt:

I don't know what's worse, having Barbie Girl by Aqua running through my head last night or Sister Christian by Night Ranger running through my head today.

i dont know if he wants to go to pittsburgh but they may want him

Lovejoy injury 'long term,' Pens confirm

Honestly, the Pens should've been looking for a d-man even before this. Pouliot has stepped up big time and looked better every game, Daley has been superb, but Lovejoy/Cole have been a nightmare this year. I don't think he's going to come to Pittsburgh, but I'm very confident he's on the Pens radar. That said, I don't think Jimmy is looking for rentals really.

Weren't the Pens interested in Kris Russell at last year's trade deadline?

I think it was deadline day when he was late to morning skate and the world went bonkers about it...and you got mad at me because I thought he sucked, haha. Pens won't bring in any guy that can't skate, at least I hope they don't because they've been spending the season getting rid of those kind of guys.

lol - At least you didn't call him a puke.

/Stempniak notched his 16th goal of the season with the Devils last night, that's pretty durn good.

I think you gotta be of a certain demographic to know that tune, I mean I don't even think pix was born when that song topped the charts.

/Of course, if you have seen the movie 'Boogie Nights', you would know it.
fuck i just realized Im old ...:pout:

Okay, it's trueeeee (MOOOTTTORRRING) that I was in fact born after this song came out (like...by a lot of years) but I'm aghast you think I wouldn't know it. I know my 60s-80s music better than most music that came out in my life time.

Oh gosh...that whole thing. Deadline time brings out the best in us. I still wish the Pens had gone after him again. He'd be perfect, dangit. The deadline is a day after my birthday this year, and usually I approach the GM in office about my desires. But...I literally have none this year. And that only worked once anyway.

You know, Jack Johnson and Sidney Crosby have been wanting to be reunited for a while.

I thought I heard a couple of weeks ago that Hamhuis was on the Pens radar. I have no idea what Garth might do at the deadline other than Nielsen & Okposo aren't going anywhere. Hamonic will likely be traded on draft day.

Would Montreal trade Pacioretty?

It seems like they're in a bit of denial about the state of the team...so don't expect it.

The only untouchable prospects on the Isles in my book are Barzal, Beauvillier & Pulock. However it would take a player like Pacioretty or somebody similar to give up a package of 2 prospects & the 1st rounder. Guys like Dal Colle who has 41 points in his last 20 games. Wotherspoon, Sorokin, Somerby, Ho Sang no idea how much value he has could be possible trade chips. The Isles have a lot of goalies in the system. Sorokin is considered the best of the bunch. Although I like McAdam at Penn St. as well.

Would the Pens consider trading Murray?

Sigh... Was hoping we could cash in on Zack Smith's recent 98.6% shooting percentage (just estimating here) and get some good assets for him. Apparently not. :playball:

I really don't think so. They have Jarry is the system too, which would make losing him a bit simpler, but Murray is the future in goal, so I doubt they move him. There were rumblings last week about Calgary calling, but being told no pretty quick.
