Was told tongiht that Buffalo''s four year, 30 million dollar offer to Shane Doan is legit. Coyotes only want to go two years for now.

Didn't Regier learn his lesson with Leino? 4 years for Doan is suicide at this point.

That's the thing - I mean, in the pre-game meetings, do any coaches say things like "Hey, we gotta try to contain Shane Doan tonight?" The guy is old and has lost a step.

Exactly, anything beyond 2 years and 3m per is asinine.

Antero Niittymaki is going to continue his hockey career back in his native Finland. The 32-year-old netminder has signed with his old club team, TPS Turku, after seven seasons in the NHL. Niittymaki last appeared in the NHL with San Jose in 2010-11.

4 years 30 million for Doan? I had no idea the Sabres have decided to go with the Rangers philosophy of yesteryear in putting together their team.

I don't know what's in the water in Detroit, but Carlo will probably turn in an All-Star defenseman in Motown...

Once a year, on July 1st, Nick Lidstrom used to go down to the water treatment plant and take a big nasty beer piss into the filters. Unfortunately, he has retired as a hockey player and a magic pee machine.

Kyle Turris 5 year extension with the Sens

Kyle Turris 5 year extension with the Sens

five-years, $17.5 million

Damn!! I didn't see that much improvement in his game. Good for him though.

Well, that's a pretty good number for both sides in my opinion, Sens lock up a good young player whose best years look to be ahead of him for a pretty reasonable price. If things don't work out, he should be easy to move.
