    If Connolly is the clear #2 available center, it says a lot about how lousy this free agent class is.

      Because the NHL isn't like that. They said Brad Richards is with his agent in Mississauga, ON.

            they've been too busy calling the local radio station saying they're Richard's cousins neighbor, and he's defniately going to the NYR

              Make the biggest offer and then compare NY with us head to head... I like how we look in that comparison:

              Solid coaching, great goalie, owner who is willing to spend, solid defense (with Regher and Ehrhoff) great young guys, great prospects...

              Other than Torterella, why would Richards pick NYR?

                  Wonder what the handicaps would have been on Regher or Ehrhoff...

                  I'm not putting much faith in those assessments.

                  Make sure your offer is the biggest and we are instantly top 2.

                        WTF?

                        He just left a team competing for the cup. He can say he wants to help bring a cup to Buffalo but it's clearly not the best place to make it happen
                        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.

                            The Richards will get Richards
                            "Richards to Buffalo did not seem likely, or plausible to myself and many others UNTIL Mr. Pegula constructed Erhoff's front-loaded contract. 29 other NHL teams stand in awe of Pegula's financial fortitude and sense of urgency to attract and sign the best of the best players. A source told me that Richards places a high premium on a team's goaltending, as he did on Khabibulin in Tampa's Cup winning year in '04. I'm told that Richards holds Hank Lundqvist and Ryan Miller in high regard. Toronto's Reimer has not built a winning resume yet. Leafs will be a long shot. Stay tuned...."

                                Nice! I was hoping they would keep McCormick. He was the unsung hero, voted on by the whole team.
