Weber: "I signed long-term with the Flyers because I want to win a Cup, and this seems like the easiest way to wind up doing that in LA."

LOL - was just going to post that. Brilliant!

If #Preds match #Flyers offer, they must keep him 1 calendar yr before trying to trade him. Oh and pay him 27M in meantime. #nothappening

wow ... Poile extended the qualifying acceptance deadline date for Weber to Aug 1 ... he fucked himself

Because in all honesty, we all knew Homer's big move wouldnt be signing Bruno Gervais.

Somehow, Proteau will find a way to way to take a shot at Feaster...

Jason Botchford saying Preds will match and will keep him as a Pred for life ... wonder if Shea is happy with that??? ... could get ugly starting next summer

 

[JustAsking]

I like to peer into my crystal balls... ball, and make stuff up...

If Preds don't match, look for flyers to trade schenn brothers and rights to voracek for bobby ryan, or something like that.

Has he said that he wants out? Either way, he has a lifetime deal, and it is not like Nashville sucks. I wouldn't think he is scared off by losing Suter beside him.

The gamble is you have a player (probably disgruntled) and you won't get a great package back in return. It's going to be an interesting week in Nashville.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Why is he disgruntled. I don't really see Philly any closer to a title than Nashville.

Dreger has jumped on that and said the arbitration process and critique from that hearing (along with the $4.5 million offer) have spoiled the player/team relationship ... idk ... I agree with Botchford though ... its equally possible that if they match, he'll be a Pred for life

It will just be interesting to see how solid the relationship truly is. Only public statement Weber made was that he wants the team to compete for the cup

I think we'll get a clue if Preds match and strip him of the captaincy

it can be mended if bruised. I dont think its been pissed off long enough for it to be unfixable.
