If refering to the Lovejoy Trade...I wouldnt have even received a pick for him... I wouldve taken some new hockey bags for the players and some jocks for Lovejoy haha
- BernieKorch

Lovejoy is better than almost every player on your blueline.Grossman looks like he is stuck in mud, and Schenn is a turnover machine.O Wait Pronger is better. Ouch he is on the unemployment line not blue line sorry wrong line.

You can't make over 6 million a year and be underrated. Timmonen sucks. This deal makes me sick. Its stupid poop like this that landed us in lockout land. Someone deserves a serious horsewhipping for this one.
- Ihatebrianburke


This is a joke, right? 980 career games - 512 points.. +32.. 300 ppp.. The guy is getting older and beat up, but you're going to argue $6mil for a solid defenseman who's had a more than solid career?? Not to mention he's a solid leader..

imagine signing Shea Weber to not record a single point so far this season
- watsonnostaw


Imagine if you actually knew something about Shea Weber outside of highlights from NHL On The Fly, you might actually know he's always been a slow starter. His defense has been fantastic this season.

So it was Ryan sutter this whole time
- Yeti1181


Who's Ryan Sutter? Weber has always been a slow starter. This is not unusual. The biggest thing is he's playing awesome defense right now. Ryan SUTER is not.

- nbartley9


Apparently, 2 players (one who helped contain the Art Ross winner in the playoffs) make up almost the entire Philadelphia blue line. Also, for my money, I'd take Grossmann (2 n's buddy) over Lovejoy.

That said, Lovejoy isn't bad. But he'd fallen down the depth charts and wasn't going to get a chance to be a regular at this point, and other teams knew it. Not a great return, but better than nothing.

I love Kimmo, but 6 still seems a little steep to me.. I do know d man are more valuable, but 6 mil for a late 30's d man who has had injury issues with his back
- nonpoint22


It's a 1 year deal...very little risk in a 1 year deal so $6M is not bad at all especially considering how important he is to that blueline and that team.

Kimmo was going to get paid that amount no matter what, either by the Flyers or the Rangers. It just so happens he is already a Flyer.

Good move, especially given that the salary cap drops after his new contract.

The Avs are pretty useless. I sure as hell hope Filip Forsberg is a bust or I'm going to be sicklamov.

They will be even worse when O'Reilly is a Leaf

If Lovejoy was worth a 5th rounder, I'll take a 3rd rounder for his rights.

How much $$ is Ryan O'Reilly asking? Can he play LW/RW as well as C?

I guess if you offered U$4 mil he probably would take it. He's pretty old and washed up to deserve U$6 mil for NEXT year.

The Ducks are damn good. It's a shame Getzlaf and Perry are headed to Toronto.
Flyers would be 5-5 with Shea, btw

- SotaPopinski


Popinski if both of them are going to Toronto, Anaheim should at least try to get Grabovski/MacArthur from them. They'll probably offer Kadri for both straight up.
