read, a prospect and a pick

No supplementary discipline according to Bob McKenzie tweet this morning.

As it should be. From the vid below (despite what the comments section at youtube would have you believe) it almost looks as though harts is trying to avoid the hit at the last second.

Tough to give Read up with is current contract bc he does so much for such a low price tag.

we need to send more cap money their way than read's 900k

It's silly. But I will admit to enjoying the Twitter chatter about the deal last night. I was laughing out loud about Richie having the rose petals and champagne ready.

It does stink that Carter was pulled out of a fan event to be told he was traded. A chapter of his life he'll try to forget.

There was a lot of funny stuff floating around there last night.

Sorry if this has already been discussed but here is a exerpt from Frank's article this AM.


Now, Carter and Richards are reunited on the West Coast - a full 2,500 miles from Philadelphia - in a laid-back hockey environment that will support their well-chronicled off-ice adventures near the beach. The "Old City gang" has now become the "Manhattan Beach brew crew."

I know we all like to make a crack about Frick and Frack but to write this in the paper??? Really?

In Tim's article on the trade, he says:

Carter is going to score goals. And miss significant games. And get a lot of freak fracture injuries. And come up short in the playoffs. That’s his M.O.

and then states three times that Nash would have been the better choice in LA, twice utilizing the phrase "I feel" -

I posted some numbers last night after the game. Briere and Read have really struggled for points the past 20 games or so. I just looked up Voracek and JVR.
I have no clue how this team is still where it is. Well maybe half a clue. Simmonds, Hartnell and Giroux, with a dash of Jagr.

Voracek - Last 30 GP = 5G, 9A, -2

JVR - Last 21 GP = 3G, 5A, +2

And how does Brown fit w/in the CAP then?

D Brown adds more leadership, loves to take the body which is needed to play in the atlantic division will help the PK

So true. Voracek or Carle + would make sense. Only things that would make sense. Depends on what they want back (forward or D). I liked the Bob and Bernier deal mentioned before. I don't see it happening but I would like to upgrade the Goalie for the POs this year.

That said, Bryz played great last night

Tim is no longer a journalist, writing objective articles. He is a glorified blogger.

In the end, Carter was rewarded for being a malcontent. It makes me sick. Oh well such is life I suppose.

I don't like the Read, Briere, Jagr line at all.

I dont disagree but your going to have to send money back. Both teams are very close to the cap.

Just like ppl I work with... it's ridiculous. Squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Yep.. Great message for the kids, eh?

Serious question: is Tim a columnist or a reporter? I'm confused now.

I take refuge in this:

"Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap." Galatians 6:7

He might not get his recompense now, but someday he will. We all will.

I don't like the Read, Briere, Jagr line at all.

Fantastic message. As soon as Carter learned he was traded to Columbus his primary goal was to figure a way out of there before he even put a CBJ sweater on.

Ooooooo, you're gonna reap for that one.
