Yes.

Weren't they teammates ? They decided to keep Redden and move Chara.

Never mind . Read it wrong

Yes.

That could be one of the dumbest NHL management moves ever.

Got to be Loui because he's a locker room cancer, useless, and has a gross cap hit that handcuffs our GM.

Myers is a big D-man with some skill and still could have some TDL value if you need to jettison.

I haven't come to a conclusion with Myers yet. Sometimes he looks great and other times I shake my head.

I don't know if he makes his partner look bad or his partners make him look bad but other than Edler I see having difficulty .

I wonder what others think of his play so far.

I think he's similar to Edler: not a number one dman, but good on most things the majority of nights. I really don't mind him on the team. If they really want to they can expose him to Seattle, I think that'd be a guy they would pick up.

Jason Garrison would be an upgrade at this point.

Not much but I didn't like the signing in the first place. I think most were relieved it wasn't 7 x 7.

Some of the worst ones from the thread..:

- Rick DiPietro's 15-year contract with the New York Islanders. Hes getting paid 1.5 million till 2029... He only played in 47 games total in the 4 seasons and didnt hit double digits in games played in 3 of those seasons.

- Brett Hull signs Sean Avery to a 4 year, $15M deal. Avery played 20+ games.

- Jeff Finger in Toronto. 4 years @ 3.5.... Even Leafs fans agree this was a joke

- Bobby Holik - 5 years, $45M

- Wade Redden - 6 years $39M

- The oilers paying $21.25M and 1st, 2nd, 3rd rd picks to sign Dustin Penner to an offer sheet. No further justification required.

- Worst RFA signing was the Flames signing O’Reilly. Had the Avalanche not matched it then the Flames would have given up $2.5MM cash in signing bonus, and a 1st and 3rd pick as compensation to the Avs and then lost O’Reilly to waivers.

Orielly?! The guy who just lead a team to the cup and is one of the better two-way centers in the league?!

That's a fair assessment. Guess it depends where Canucks are at with the prospects coming up. Though its more then Myers that will need replacement, if they lose him, on Canucks D coming up. So go after another UFA or make a trade?

Yes, one and the same.

Yeah I think most were cautious of the signing. I think I was neutral but can't remember. I do remember everyone letting out a collective sigh when it was 6x5

You can't be serious. What statistic suggests Garrison is an upgrade over Myers?

Yes, one and the same.
- 1970vintage

Well... pretty easy to disagree with that hot take

Myers IMO has had good and bad games. I don't remember good with Garrison

Salary?

Both terrible in their own end, neither can make a pass out of the D zone to save their life, both with a decent shot from the point. I’ll give the edge to Garrison in the beard department as well.

The Flames are insanely lucky the Avs matched. Would have arguably been the worst signing in history, since he never would have even played for the team

No. Here's a comparison:

Myers is serviceable. Garrison is a train wreck regardless how nice his beard is.

It was hyperbole, to show how much I dislike the Myers signing, and his subsequent play.

Did he play for the Avs that season at all, or straight trade to Buffalo? That waiver rule is a bit foggy, you can see how Weisbrod totally missed it...

Crazy. I just posted in Serenity that 250 already dead in the US. Last week the US Prez considered this a "hoax". It's going to get real ugly.
