Assuming he doesn't stay in Tampa, I'd put Toronto slightly ahead of Detroit. Detroit sure seems to be pushing for him like...real bad from everything that's being reported. I'm just not confident when it comes down to it he picks Detroit over his hometown. Buffalo can offer the most money but he's gonna get pretty paid regardless so I think fit is a bigger thing and Detroit and TO both need a #1 center.

Going out on a limb and assuming you have jersey's for guys like Crosby and Letang. Maata would be an odd choice for a number of reasons - to me anyhow.

Much as I do not like the Penguins I agree their jersey's are very classic. Hate it when teams make major changes.

Not a big fan of alternate jersey's myself, they are pretty pointless ways to make a few more bucks. I get the O6 teams using their old school ones on occasion but with say Chicago I think their black alternates are awful, the camo ones they used for veterans day are pretty bad - even the occasional one off jersey's with colored numbers they put up for auction after certain games (pink numbers for breast cancer awareness day) are generally pretty bad even if I do agree they raise money for a good cause.

i have a black Kevin Stevens throwback (technically not a throwback anymore)
i have a black Marty Straka (with vegas gold)
i have a white Lemieux throwback (same era as the Stevens sweater)

and why exactly would Olli Maatta be an odd choice? he's young, he's maybe my favorite current penguin, and he just signed a long extension so he'll be here for a while

and yes, the Penguins pretty much kill it in the sweater game.

I have a black Mark Recchi throwback complete with the badger bob, NHL 75th Anniversary, and Pens 25th Anniversary patches. I got it around 2003.

I've always been tempted to get a white Ron Francis from the same era. I also considered getting a white Bill Guerin shortly after the 2009 cup but never pulled the trigger.

Ron Francis would be a good one

I remember seeing a dude in a Ray Whitney Wings jersey at the Pearl Jam concert I went to in 2014. Could have lit that $150-200 on fire instead. Not a Fata Beach by any means but that's gotta hurt.

Seth Jones deal is a steal. 6 years at 5.4mil per. In terms of teams at or close to the cap...Pens are #1, actually over the cap and teams 2 and 3? CBJ and the Leafs. Way to go boys....

I once had someone tell me I wasn't a true Penguins fan because I didn't have a Jan Hrdina jersey...I guess because I hadn't decided to buy a jersey for everyone who was ever a Penguin kind of like Flyers fans get whatever hot goaltender they have at the time who flames out/is gone within two years.

I own a Ron Francis Third Jersey (the one from the mid-late 90s) and the black one with "PITTSBURGH" across the chest with no name/number.

Thinking about getting the white one for Christmas but I usually like to get a home jersey instead of away but the white is very classy.

I have a white Yzerman and a white Osgood one and then a Zetterberg one from the 2014 winter classic against the Leafs. That's my favorite right now. I need to get a Larkin jersey and need a regular red one since I don't have one of those yet.

Well, only the truest of the true Penns fans completed the Hrdina collection by also getting a Jiri Hrdina sweater. ;)

I heard the Pens are $1 million under the cap. Obviously very close to it, but not yet over.

To each their own I guess, I just prefer impact players who I know will be around and solid for a long time. I do not think Maata is all that great and I believe the Pens will ship him out without a second thought if they could package him with another someone else to land another top tier D guy to supplement Letang.

Got one myself - admittedly it has a Whalers logo on it. :lol

Also have a home Ulf Sameulson Whalers jersey, home Brendan Shanahan jersey and a blue Kevin Dineen Whalers one. Also have a WHA Gordie Howe New England Whalers one. For the Hawks I just have Keith, Toews, Kane and Roenick. Even have a couple from teams I do not generally cheer for - home Gretzky, home Brett Hull, a team USA jersey and even a vintage USSR jersey. Yeah, been collecting them a long time. Some are more worn then other and look ratty after so much use but even the older ones like Ulf still fit because I had to buy them larger to fit over my pads. :lol

Yeah good job with the Jones deal. If he continues his progression into Rob Blake reborn it will look like a real steal.

My buddy once said he wanted to customize a red "CCCP" jersey with Malkin's name and number. I don't think he ever did, though.

Can't really argue those. I was one who thought Kariya and Selanne in Colorado was gonna do big things, even without Roy in net.

@TSNBobMcKenzie
EDM and NJD appear to be edging closer to completion of a trade involving Taylor Hall. Could be imminent. Not official yet.

‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 4m4 minutes ago
As has been talked about last couple of days, Larsson is key piece EDM has been looking at.


Looks like a done deal now, pending details.

Really hope Larsson pans out otherwise this is a huge oops. Edm must be confident Lucic is signing to fill the hole left by Hall too.

TMoore4075 06-29-2016 12:32 PM

Re: The NHL Thread
 
Peter Chiarelli has now traded both the #1 and the #2 picks from the 2010 draft.

Yeah Larsson better pan out. I don't know much about him but I was expecting like Shattenkirk or something.

Yeah, and it looks like a straight 1 for 1 trade....which would not be cool.

Yeah I figured they'd be like a pick or two going back to EDM or some other player...nope. Shero is putting his feed up on his desk right now.

I want to point this trade out when Wings fans throw a fit on Friday or Saturday if Wings don't get Stamkos and hold back on overspending on second tier talent. Essentially Lucic and Larsson for Taylor Hall.....
