    If there is one thing that last few years have shown is that you shouldn't spend a lot on the goaltender position. Teams have been getting it done with cheaper than elite goaltending for awhile now. Also Caps re-sign Karl Alzner to a 4 year, $2.8 million per year deal. I'm amazed it wasn't...

    Honestly I feel like I'm going to go see it, get a lot of over the top action with some crazy big destruction between monsters and giant robots...and while I'll likely enjoy it for what it is, in the end I'm betting I still think about this movie and make that face I made when I first heard the...

    I can agree with all this, but it's also a fact he was misused quite a bit under Carlyle. His boxcars suffered a little, but it wasn't a guy who isn't still a good player. I don't think this outburst is the only reason he hasn't been signed yet. Vinny becoming available, Ribeiro, Weiss, and...

    Not my favorite either (hell especially by comparison to the rest of the cast), but if my buddy fucked her or a woman that looked just like her I'd still say nice pull.

    NHL GM's throwing around the crazy money today. You'd never know they bitched for a lockout or that the cap was going down this year with some of the money some of these guys are getting thrown at them. Borderline 3rd/4th line player? You can get close to $2 million and term. Borderline...

    Not that Streit/Timonen/Hartnell don't already sort of fill that role. Hell Pronger too if he spends any time around the team still. They have some good young talent, but scoring wasn't their problem last year, and after acquiring Vinny, scoring still isn't their problem going forward.

    The rumor was he wanted a deal that would take him into retirement. He's only 33 but has been in the league for 15 years. With that much mileage I'm not surprised he wanted to cash in one more time. Although like you I'm surprised it's with Philly. Maybe none of the other teams would offer...

    Vinny to the Flyers for 5 years at $4.5 per. I can't figure out all their little cap issues offhand, but looks pretty tight and with only 1 goalie signed (and it's Steve Mason at that). Caps should immediately offer Neuvirth and some sweeteners for Coutourier.

    I guess we'll have to wait and see. I think their biggest "win now" period was this past season. Now that Malkin and Letang have been extended, a lot of their key pieces will be in place for a good bit now.

    The thing with Letang is...he's very good, but I don't think he's "that" good as his numbers would suggest. I do think the health issues would have given me more pause to ink him to an 8 year deal. Obviously he's a guy you would want to keep (or get a healthy package back in exchange for), but...

    Fine with this. I feel like Shero would have helped his team out more with whatever package he would have gotten in return for Letang than having $7.25 mil a year in cap space tied up there for 8 years.

    Is it true Letang turned down 8 years and $56 million? Shero will move him if that is the case.
