thats two teams that have overpaid for mr high and wide now. he is so overrated.
- thenighttrain17

I don't think LA overpaid even remotely.

Johnson gets a (potentially deserved) bad rap, but who knows, he may figure things out. May just take a long time, being a defenseman and all.

The Kings want to be us so bad eh?

What do you think they would give up to get their hands on Shelley?

He's been overhyped for almost 5 years now.

So... LA traded for Jeff Carter... my thoughts are... wtf do they do with him?

They now have Kopitar, Richards, Carter... remind anyone of when the Flyers had Carter/Giroux playing 3rd line center? Do they convert him to the wing?

Going to be the exact same situation as it was here in Philly, one of those 3 centers aren't going to be able to produce.

Im now convinced that Nash can be had without overpaying.

Soooooo Berniers still available eh

Move to wing with Richie.

Richards is back to checking line duties.

Only way I deal JvR to Dallas is if Benn is coming back. Otherwise their wasting time talking about JvR.
- stveshdy

I just don't understand the JVR talk, there is no guarantee Jagr will come back next year. JVR is just starting to reach his potential. I would move Voracek before JVR.

Jeff Carter has been traded to LAK for Jack Johnson and 1st round pick. Pending a medical tomorrow.

Done deal. Columbus had to remove Carter from a fan expo because of the trade. What an absolute trainwreck in Columbus.
- PLindbergh31

Do you think Dustin Brown and Lombardi will have to take a jet to Ohio and drag Jeff out of his house? Wait...what..he's already in LA. Feets don't fail me now.

Nash to Philly for Wellwood and a 6th.

as howson is escorted to the local mental hospital

Im now convinced that Nash can be had without overpaying.
- stveshdy

The Rags will get him for Dubinsky and picks. Book it.

Move to wing with Richie.
- Deasr1

Give up Jack Johnson and a first for a guy with 11 years left on his deal and change his position right away... classic. Not to mention, he sucks on the wing.

The Rags will get him for Dubinsky and picks. Book it.
- PLindbergh31

If they do, good on Sather. Dubinsky is overrated by their fan base, and while I understand why their fans don't want to break up the team's chemistry, Nash will make them a better club.

Carter female doged and whined his way right out of Columbus. He will be killed in an earthquake next week. E4

If they don't have to give up a package that would include some kind of Stepan/Del Zotto/Kreider package, Nash will make them better.

I don't think LA overpaid even remotely.
- LordStanley88

LA now potentially gets the #1 overall pick in this years draft or a lottery pick next year plus a young d man with tons of potential. I personaly think thats an overpayment

what did he say?
- mydoglicks

They had been yapping at each other during the game (apparently Cote must have made it onto the ice at some point), and while Cote was on the bench, Ott skated by and said "Hey Cote! Enjoy that free Gatorade while you can. They'll make you pay for that sh1t when you're working construction next year."

They way he just sort of rattled it off as he skated out for a faceoff was hilarious.

Howson and Company are scheduling a flight to LA to find Johnson.

i want ott...bad

The Rags will get him for Dubinsky and picks. Book it.
- PLindbergh31

How does this guy still have a job? I like Jack Johnson but you dont get Bernier in the Carter deal? Columbus has zero goalie at this point.

Nash to LA for Carter and a 1st
