God no.... Not older and slower... He'll be 38 at the start of the season and has one more year under contract. He's not a young 38 either.

Amen to that... This team has big money tied up in too many old guys.

Gawd, now Maatta out for 4 to 6 months. Fu*k!

Would love Doan's presence in the room, but I agree with you.

What part of "in Wexford" confused you?
- canadianpenfan

Can we vote for another lockout this fall? Maatta and Pouliot out for 4-6 months, and Bennett out 4 months.

And who knows how long after that it will take these guys to get back to near 100% strength...

They're young, won't take that long. What is Bennett having done?

Somebody needs to get him a strength coach when he's healed.

I think the only option at this point is bionic wrists.

If we get rid of Glass they should just give his jersey to Beau.

When i was a young hockey player i used to do the dumbbell on a string exercise every day. He should look into it.

I think it's the same wrist. I believe he said it was never right, but he put off the surgery so he could play this season.

I'd think it's going to take a while to get strength back in that shoulder. Where the hell is Walshy?

Yea but if 4 months puts him around the start of camp, then preseason etc... it wouldn't be far fetched to assume he misses little regular season time.

Might affect Pouliot's bid with the big club more than #3 or #19.

I had a lethal shot. Couldn't skate faster than anyone on the ice or in the stands, but man what a shot.

Jets fan suggested Sutter Maatta and a pick for Kane. Not sure how I feel about it. The pick I think is pushing it to far. I think I'd decline though I just can't deal Maatta when we are losing Nisk and Orpik. Be nice to get Kane and keep Neal though. Top 6 would be pretty lethal.

Isles just signed Halak for 4yrs at $4.5M/yr.

Wonder if this is the benchmark for G contracts this offseason? Would make moving Fleury & replacing him with a cheaper, comparable goalie a little more difficult.
