Re: The NHL Thread
Still cannot believe Eric Lindros is not in the Hall of Fame.

I'd have to think if there are players in the Hall who had "short" yet dominant careers. Ken Dryden comes to mind but he was so ridiculously good and won a lot of cups in that short time frame that he had to go in. His injuries and short career hurt him, though his more than point a game in the trap era is impressive. He'll get in eventually. |

If Cam Neely and Pavel Bure are in it. Lindros should be in.

Re: The NHL Thread
Pavel is a good comparison. Because his last few years weren't all the same either. Also remember it took him 9 years after he was done playing to get in. So still another year for Eric before that mark.

Re: The NHL Thread
So the Mike Richards stuff seems to be about some kind of trouble with crossing at the border. Assumption is drugs or something as bad. Curious as to the extent of all of it. Still, how many players have gotten into trouble with shit and never had their contracts terminated? Again I want to see what all the details are, but still screams an excuse to get him 100% off the books type of move.

Re: The NHL Thread
I think the Kings are being shady. Unless something is really severe they should still be on the hook. Also, drugs is my guess too
|
Re: The NHL Thread
it goes without saying that if he was an important player they wouldn't be terminating his deal for this.
it's just business though, i don't blame the kings for doing what they are doing, it will be settled in court. |
Re: The NHL Thread
Martin Jones moved to San Jose for a first rounder and a prospect... maybe makes Sweeney not look quite AS bad being able to get a first for him.
Matt Larkin points out that NYR couldn't get a first for Talbot, but Jones and Lehner both did. Puzzling. |
Re: The NHL Thread
bruins staying busy. flipped martin jones to the sharks for a first rounder. so basically got prospects and 2 first rounders for lucic

Re: The NHL Thread
FWIW I really don't like moving Hamilton. The bruins seem to be rebuilding while still trying to compete, but isn't Hamilton the perfect defenseman to build around if he continues progressing? I'll defer to Sweeney because he was a defenseman and has a better eye for it, but listening to Sweeney's interviews from a month ago it sounds like Dougie was on his way out. I didn't notice at the time

Nice move by Bruins to rebound from a couple head scratchers.

still begs the question of whether or not he wanted to be in boston. I heard some rumor about him not getting along with teammates and being a loner, but everyone get smeared a bit when leaving boston :lol |

Sweeney just said Rask isn't on the market and the bruins aren't in rebuild phase :lol ok, I'm confused. what the fuck is this then?
|
Re: The NHL Thread
If they were gonna dump Rask, which would be tough, you'd think they would have kept Jones and just gone young and cheap in goal.

sounds like a small rebuild to me.. a rebuild on the fly while trying to compete for a low playoff spot |
Re: The NHL Thread
I'm interested in what they plan to do. Not that the team is old but they aren't getting any younger either. I want to see what Chara does this season. He looked like he was slowing down but maybe a long offseason will help him.

Other than that, I think they'll for sure look for a forward who can score a bit more. Shopping Eriksson as bait perhaps? Could potentailly get someone like Frolik on the FA market.... or just go all in and bring back Kessel. :lol |
Re: The NHL Thread
Kessel :lol :lol
|
Re: The NHL Thread
Please take Bickell.....come on Boston
He has already scored a very clutch goal in Boston |
Re: The NHL Thread
would rather have oduya based on the cost
