White/Hunter on Waivers. Prelude to Buyouts.

[MCDevils]

I don't think we could buy out Salvador due to his injuries. I think he needs to be 100 percent cleared to buy him out.

While not to s his d too much larsson at least has 2 and a half years if pro under his belt in what is arguably the 3rd best league in the world.

The d will theoretically be something like:

A train
Tallinder
Greene
Salvador
Larsson
Taormina
Fayne.

Methinks Fraser is in trouble.

Lou said today that Bryce is in full swing with no symptoms or restrictions. Obviously all bets are off once full contact starts. One hard hit and he could be right back where he was last year. Hopefully not, I always liked his style of play.

 

[devs30rko]

Me too. Hell fit in whites spot. I personally tho think corrente and Fraser are going to be unhappy campers

 

[nj_cup]

time to get younger. gotta let the kids a shot. this move should've been done last year! he is slow turns it over a lot and i really dont think this team will miss a beat.

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

I knew Garth helped Lou out. This was actually the most logical way to go for the Devils. Hunter isn't anywhere near the player he was 3 years ago.

the rags bought out drury who was coming off of injuries if salvador is clear to play I would thiunk he is clear to be bought out.IMO if someone had to go for budgetary reasons I would rather see salvador go he is less durable less aggressive more prone to be pushed around and doesnt come close to whiteys leadership skills.White will be missed book it

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Does anyone think Urbom might have a shot at the big club this year?

 

[devs30rko]

He should, but probably not. Hell probably have to wait til next year but hell see action here and there.

And Clark don't forget deity played the very end of the season so he was good to go. Im almost positive Salvador wasn't

 

[devs30rko]

drury*

 

[Nasty_Magician]

I think our D is too shaky to make a serious cup run this year (although I'm hoping for one). I see 12-13 and 13-14 being our years to make a real push so let's use this year to figure out exactly what we need for those seasons. See if the prospects on D are ready, if not bring somebody in.

Ended up on eck's site for a good laugh, saw he has Lou making all the cap room not for Parise, but to aquire Bogosian and we are after Drury. He thorws more shit at the wall trying to get something to stick than anyone I've ever seen. Would love Bogosian for the right price though

That would be a great addition but I'm not holding my breath for this one.

LOL, me neither, it is eck after all

 

[MCDevils]

The biggest question mark is Greene. Tallinder played lights out under Lemaire when paired with Fayne. Greene has to be worth that $3M or we're really in trouble.

Agreed. When Greene is playing with confidence this is a different team. When he's carrying the puck deep and making plays on offense this is a scary team. Hopefully Deboer knows how to handle him. Lemaire could, Sutter could not.

 

[DevilishWon]

"Lamoriello said the decision to buy out both players was budgetary and because of depth of young players on D and at RW."

Why are you shouting?

Oh hi guys

 

[MCDevils]

Why are you shouting?

Oh hi guys

Because people on here keep saying we're not on a budget, despite Lou saying specifically, we're on a budget.

 

[nj_cup]

Budget being why pay a suck ass like white 3 million when a kid can do it for $500,000 or whatever Fraser urbom tarmonia gets. Same with hunter. Finding cheaper better players I'm all for that! Last player I want to see go is zubrus I wish he was already sent packing.

 

[TheRobotDevil]

White and Tao are completely incomparable due to their styles of play.White and Fraser are completely uncomparable due to Fraser will never be as good as White Fraser blows on d.Correntte is horrible as well always chasing the big hit and has horrible timing.Whites addition just made the sharks more dangerous

 

[nj_cup]

Out west white is going to get eaten alive. Fact is on Any nhl team he is a low 4 or 5th d man. Sorry but u can't be paying $3 million a year for that. Give me a sucky kid over watching that overpaid bum any day

 

[nj_cup]

Just saw it was a 1 year 1 mill cap hit. That's the price I would want white on this team.
