But then you have money tied for years, which impacts the ability to sign guys like Pominville and Stafford when they get to be 27+, not to mention the Spacek's, Tallinder's, Conolloy's, etcs of the team.Originally Posted by Mikey82

Except for the fact salaries are goign up faster than the cap and there is no evidence that revenues have gone up this year like they did last year.Originally Posted by Mikey82
Campbell is crying
Campbell sounds on the verge of tears.
I'll miss him. He was a big part of this team's high scoring, the Umberger hit was legendary, his spin move was cool, and he brought personality. While sometimes inconsistent, he was an asset and a reason we were a Cup contender for two years.
And who will do those skin surgery commercials now???

Its not too bad
The guy is young and has upside. I'd have preferred a deal with the Flyers for Jeff Carter and Ryan Parent, but we have a few defensemen at Rochester.
Now we have to make the No1 pick count and get someone like Dave Perron who can start quickly, not waste a pick on the likes of a Kulkov, Novotny, and Zagrapan who will always be projects.
Zags will be good some day.

Got it off WGR... Sorry.Originally Posted by Philagape
I do actualy agree with WGR - They must sign Miller for this deal to make sense. Hoepfully before next season starts.
Less years more years, it all comes down to the money that is paid over the length of the contract.Originally Posted by Philagape
Aren't you the one that always *****es about Miller and his inconsistent play? Don't you say that he allows cheap goals all the time? Why would you want him locked up for $7-8 million per year?Originally Posted by Dr.Lecter
That's not the players say, so just call Campbell a liar right nowOriginally Posted by kgun12
