lundqvist, kipper, luongo - there's a long list.

exactly theres alot of good or even great goaltender stuck behind a crappy team hence montreal

My avatar is for b Richards cause we'll sign him
- 2Real

IT wouldnt surprise me........I wonder if thats what the Rangers are thinking too since they are looking to get Spezza........I dont think they can afford both, and I dont think Brad Richards would want to go to Toronto if he's comparing team rosters.........

Who said that?

It was a tough pill to swallow. i dont think we will know the outcome of these deals for a while. But I am optimistic.
- BradTardforGM

If schenn and voracheck both play to potential we've won massively also voracheck has more points than carter in the same timeframe on a crap team

Its been debunked but after yesterday I feel any rumor has legs

i dont want brad richards comin off concussion wants too much money is he good but not that good for the money he wants let the rangers overpay for another player

Laich will cost you atleast 3.5 more likely closer to 4 mil.

Sturm is not a better player than Cole. Fleischmann is an interesting idea, so long as he doesnt have anymore PE's. Meittinen and Samsonov... ehhh
- jak521

Laich = Jayson Werth.

He's a support guy not a star player. Can't over pay for that.

That really doesnt paint the entire picture. Whether or not it means anything now, Bryz was just bad last playoffs.
- thejet

Thats fair, but look at the grand scheme of things out there. They played against a much better team, and PHX as a whole, was terrible. They looked like an AHL team. That can reflect poorly on your goalie.

Theres a reason that no goalie in the entire NHL has more wins than Bryz over the past 2 seasons...... even though he played behind a not so great team.

zzzzz

U jelly bro

Im not saying that he is worth 4 mill... im saying he will get that on the open market.

He is a great guy, good leader, locker room vet, scores 50 points a year, and is big.

the nationals will be another Atlanta losing 2 teams

no

U mad bro

I'd be mad too if Gomez was my 1 center

i dont want brad richards comin off concussion wants too much money is he good but not that good for the money he wants let the rangers overpay for another player
- Slammed81

He's a good player, but he's worth nowhere near what he's going to command as the top-UFA-by-default. He's had a couple of solid seasons in Dallas, but before that, he was one of the biggest salary-cap albatrosses out there.

Giroux -> Briere -> Schenn is a pretty good mix at center, IMO.

The Flyers do not need a Brad Richards. That money would be far better spent on a third-line center and 6th defenseman.

Love laich but not for 4 mil however i'm not happy if we sign lenio for around that

Highly unlikely. Ottawa does not have a lot of depth at centre.

Agreed, but not sure he'd live up to the contract as needed now in Philly. He'd be more like Hartnell part deux.

- 2Real

I agree. Schenn could very well be a better player than carter or richards. voracek could be a perennial 30 goal guy.

The problem is you know what you are gonna get from richards and carter. Schenn and voracek are still ifs and coulds. But, like I said, I am optimistic.

easy 2real. pinch yourself
- Duane B

Don't worry I've written emails to holmgren about this

It got us carter traded and breezy signed

- flyguy12

He will be overpaid, thats the nature of being a top UFA.

hope u cheer for Mike Richards on LA
- NashvilleFoppa

I will cause he's a good guy

What would it take to get B-Rich?

If we were to trade versteeg and the 8th to flo-rida... draft Larson (he wants to spend another year or two in Sveden) sign B-Rich at 6 years with a cap hit of about 5.5?

6 years...
