Why did they pay out so much for Zidlicky? Am I missing something? Is he better than i'm giving him credit for?

Pronger loved it so much that he requested a trade within a year.

didn't someone bang Pronger's wife? Heard that's why he asked for the trade.

So... Same question for the Pens?

Who's the last difference maker they signed as a UFA?

- robin_steele264


We don't need to sign a difference maker in free agency because our GM actually makes good trades to bring the talent in. Role players are the free agent signings. I'm very sure if we had cap room to spend on a relevant free agent on the upswing of his career, we could get one.

think Ek just wanted Hemsky out of Edmonton for website hits. He was a pred (e4) last week - now resigned for ridiculous money.

PA Parenteau is entitled to 9 million/season by these standards.

If the Avs got Grabs for that you`d be pissed they didn`t have any Grabbo Avs jerseys left at the store

What a huge mistake that MacArthur signing was! Giving up nothing for a clutch 20+ goal player really sucked. Leaf fans are still feeling the pain of grabbing that discard.

Connolly on the other hand - pure genius. I wish we had more than just 1 more year of his 4.75mil cap hit. Sabres did replace his awesomeness with Leino at 4.5+ over 6 years though, so you should be happy with that.

So no one.

Check.

Easy to trash a team thats taking the same road as the Pens did though... only looking at their 3rd lotto pick coming.

Pens had what... 5?

With Snow as the GM don't be surprised if Parenteau gets a 17 year deal.

No, its easy to trash Edmonton when its GM is making an utterly stupid signing - giving an aloof player who was on the last year of his contract a 1,000,000 raise for a poopty season. Thats brilliant.

Again, Pittsburgh has made great deals in getting players, unlike your organization. We don't really need to sign free agents quite frankly. You on the other hand ... different story.

He would be ahead of the great Ales Hemsky in scoring if he were an Oiler. Never said Sullivan was a difference maker. He has filled the role he was supposed to. Hemsky, on the other hand ... LOL.

Stop being bitter. Accept the fact your GM is an idiot for not dealing Hemsky for something.

The irony is hilarious... Pens were on the verge of not existing till Crosby saved the day.. now you can sit on your high horse and point and laugh.
