NHL 2010-2011 Season

[Deeznutz6]

I really liked Rupp on the team, but tough to match that much dough for a 4th liner at best. Same goes for Talbot 1.8 million for a 3rd liner at best is a bit of a stretch especially for 5 years. He's good on the PK and will contribute here and there.

Jagr disappointed me I'll be honest. For nostalgia purposes I was really hoping he'd sign with the pens for 1 last run for the cup. He chose greed over winning (sorry I see the flyers imploding this year)

On to the flyers - WTF is your GM doing. You let Leino walk, who appears to have a decent amount of talent and should only get better. Instead you give 3.3 mil to Jagr??? You traded your captain and a solid 30 + goal scorer. I understand the need to trade a big impact player, and go in a new direction, but you pretty much gutted your entire team. Homer is either going to look like a genius or will be fired 2 seasons from now when this turns out to be a disaster. You better hope Schenn and your new first rounder light it up and quick!

Ya I washoping Jagr would come back for one more season, I dont see him fitting in with the Flyers

Steve Sullivan is a good pick up I think.

Thinking Enggland gets moved to forward 4th line duties next year.

You're funny. It is still comparables because of how mediocre the years of each player were given the extent and cost of their contracts. Now take off those rose coloured goggles because clearly being a Devils fan has rendered you blind.

You claiming 50 goals scored would still be mediocre does not compute. Can't take you seriously sorry. Idc if a player gets paid $700bazillion, if he nets 50 goals he's having a stellar season period.

I am in the strong belief that all professional athletes are over paid.

Is this supposed to be news to anyone? Are you new to sports?
At any rate it's 100% irrelevant to what we were talking about.

Wow, missed my point completely. <----- Smiley emoticon for horrified.

Caps sign Voukon...wow.

 

[BadMoon]

Caps sign Voukon...wow.

And they still suck. Thought you were done with the Caps?

 

[NosferatuBill36]

Voukon's heart pumps Kool-Aid.

 

[The Ringer]

at the heartborken pens fans, that less money has to make it cut even deeper.

Oh, and this Talbot guy? He played for the penguins too right?

 

[KitFisto]

And they still suck. Thought you were done with the Caps?

Why do you keep saying that? I may be done living and dying with them, but I didn't say I'll never root for them again or that I'll never watch another game.

And this coming from a guy who said the eagles suck and that they could suck his ass, but you're still a fan right?

 

[KitFisto]

Voukon's heart pumps Kool-Aid.

He's been stuck on crap teams. We will see what he can do on a decent team for once.

 

[NosferatuBill36]

He's been stuck on crap teams. We will see what he can do on a decent team for once.

The Panthers would've been a "decent" team had their goalie had a heart.

Ya you may have heard of Talbot, hes the guy that was instrumental in the Flyers blowing a 3 goal lead in a pivotal game 2 years ago, and eventually helped them win a Stanley Cup.

You know that thing the Flyers havent won in close to 40 years

Hope Wayne Simmonds/Jakob Voracek/ and one dimensional 39 year old pan out for you

 

[KitFisto]

Yeah, sure.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Good signing for the Caps, but regardless they're a mess and aren't going anywhere.

 

[Eli26]

Panthers had zero talent in front last season. Tallon is reshaping that team like crazy, hopefully for the better.

 

[NosferatuBill36]

Tallon is reshaping that team like crazy, hopefully for the better.

That's for sure.

 

[Grenouille]

Checking in from the home of the Stanley Cup champions where the booze is still flowing nicely even though Marchand and Seguin (underage in the States) are back in Canada.

Sad to see Ryder go. Weird to say that, but he grew on me immensely during the playoffs. Good luck in Dallas Ghost Ryder.

Benoit Pouliot? Not a fan. Thank god it's for only one year and not much money. I'll gladly be surprised though if he actually lives up to his pre-draft hype though.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Richards to NYR!

So you mean Talbot will do the same for us?


Would Jagr be one dimensional on the Penguins?

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Jagr will be 1 dimensional wherever he goes at this point in his career. Glad to see the Flyers employing Glen Sather tactics this off season

Love the moves the Caps have made, would still like to see Green or Semin traded though.
