That's because Z couldn't keep up with them.

My opininion is Lou went after Suter and missed. He signed whatever scrap was left in Chara and it clearly didnt pan out.

I think I heard she's from Jersey too.

While I obviously don't want the Devils to get Johnny G. It would actually be nice for them to have a UFA come to them b/c it's where they are from b/c of their past players leaving like Parise, Kovy, etc.

Greene was good for us for a stretch but he definitely falls into the “time to move on” category.

(frank) them I can care less how nice it would be for them. I hope all of their players hate it there and want to leave

I think he was brought in to mentor Dobson, but its time to reserve that table for two at Chez "see ya later" for Greene and Chara

Same excuse was used for the Chara signing. He has been tutored enough.

Honestly, the novelty wore off for me the day we signed him and when I realized he would be used as a top 4 and not a no. 7 defenseman. He was terrible for Washington the year before and rehashed that performance with us last season.

If teams dont talk to UFA's prior to 12 noon than how is Hockeybuzz saying "things are heating up with talks between Gaudreau and the isles?"

I will say that when things got choppy in a couple of games late last year, seeing Ross, Chara and Martin all staring players down after a whistle was funny.

im old school......i still jump out of my seat when a guy drops his gloves. I still think there's a need for that in the game. But, the game is so fast now......you gotta be able to skate. Zone entry is everything now.

The ultimate kick to the nutz would be if the Rags came in with a last minute offer and landed him.
