    Re: NHL FA Thread

    Savard to CGY for Regher is a serious consideration for both teams, but Savard has not yet been asked to waive NTC by BOS. Stay tuned.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    I would take Hedberg.

    yeah that is a lot for such an old player. Of course, he'll probably still rack up 8 points against Buffalo this year.

    Just for the record, I hope nobody in the NHL trades for Tim Thomas and his enormous contract. Nobody should bail out Boston on that awful deal. Make them suffer and live with the consequences they created for themselves.

    Ottawa is getting slammed on the TSN live feed, even by some Senators fans.

    Why are the Sabres being mentioned for Paul Martin?
    Injured last year and makes like 4.5 million. Not all that young and never really had more than a slightly average season.

    I hope we keep him... I want to see one more year out of Rask.

    Add in the NTC and the over 35 rule and it is terrible.

    Desperate times. I guess that is why he would not sign with the Pens. He know what the Sens would give him.

    But he might as well rack up 8 points against Buffalo. It is not like they can beat the Sens anyway. So it really does not make a difference.

    From what I read, the Penguins wouldn't give him more than 2 years because of the whole retirement issue and being saddled with his contract no matter what.

    Guess that's one argument we can stop having.
    Wow. Didn't he say he wanted a chance to start? That is kind of surprising it happened so quickly too.

    Sabres might be talking to Volchenkov.

    He has never played less than 70 games per season till last year and he's only 29.

    I wouldn't mind him at all, although it doesn't get them off the hook for the PP QB they still need to sign.

    That sounds like the typical Buffalo Sabres model for mediocrity, perfect for us. not surprised at all.

    Doesn't Philly already have cap problems or potential ones? Before the playoffs, I would have thought that Briere would be gone because he never lived up to the money in the regular season. Or maybe I was just hoping that.

    I also thought that the Rangers would pay off Drury as well to get rid of him.
