2012 NHL Offseason Thread: ROCK OUT WITH YOUR LOCKOUT

**Judai** · 2012-07-16 18:13

That's too much money for Green, he better rebound big time and I hope we do not sign Semin to a deal like that. I was really hoping we would change the team up, even if it means waiting a year to make a big signing.

Friend of mine is volunteering with a non-profit organization, and a couple of NHLers/ex-NHLers came to some of their events. Thought you guys might enjoy.

Awesome, Flood was a part of it.

I'm annoyed on how management is handling him though. He spent more than half the season in Winnipeg with the Jets yet played maybe 15 games? I know they're scared of putting him through waivers, but ffs, at least play him more.

**Mazmaz** · 2012-07-17 04:02

Yea I saw him and thought of you lol.

**Deader2818** · 2012-07-17 13:03

So the Hawks picked up Jamie Kompon for assistant coach.

One word of advice. Do not let him near your Power Play.

**vagus** · 2012-07-17 13:43

Gaborik for Dan Boyle in some form is the rumor on Twitter. *facepalm*

**bluefan** · 2012-07-17 14:37

The it looks like the reason why Kanes signing is taking so long is that it'll be a 6 year deal.

Now...who said he didn't want to stay in Winnipeg?

/fighting words

**Richybear** · 2012-07-17 14:54

But I thought a 6-year deal was the length of the contract, not the amount of time it takes to get it done?
lol j/k j/k
I heard it's 6yr / 30~33 mill range. On par with Tavares/Kessel

I don't think our PP could be any worse than it was last year so uh, yeah. Who is this guy anyway? Never heard of him before so I have no idea what to expect.

Paul Martin + a handful of pucks signed by Crosby + a handful of pucks signed by Malkin + new sticks for everyone on the Jets for Kane.

Go on, I'm interested.

This lol, a wet sock could be in charge of our power play and see improvement over last year.

I said for Kane, not for your organization.

Huh, must have glossed over a few words than.

**bluefan** · 2012-07-17 18:09

So glad I pre-purchased my copy:

http://www.ebgames.ca/ps3/games/nhl-...contest/313337

I can't believe it's only $79.

**Sepukku** · 2012-07-17 18:14

I too am getting Collector's Edition, primarily for all the HUT goodies, as that is one of my favorite game modes and I hate the idea of "buying" packs, but I can just this once 'overlook' the fact that I'm basically spending $20 for a ton of HUT packs when I factor it into the game price.

Anyone know what Gamestop's bonuses are? They're not listed on the page and Gamestop always has some sort of bonus. Perhaps I shall order from EBgames if no one hands me a reservation ticket for a Gamestop-reserved copy on my birthday in August, cause free packs every week through the first 4 months of the game is sick and if I win the Giroux jersey, I will record myself burning it and post video.

**Ivaden** · 2012-07-17 18:16

We should do the Be a GM online mode. Some of you have PS3, right?

Right?

**Sepukku** · 2012-07-17 18:20

I have PS3

**bluefan** · 2012-07-17 18:23

In Canada, EBGames is Gamestop. It's just a lot of chain stores still use the EBGames logo and name for familiarity with the customer base. I'll be heading there soon for GW2 questions, so I'll ask them about the NHL goodies too. But I'm fairly certain it'll just be the weekly HUT packs.

And that slick PS3 cover...they should've made a special puck case if they were going black.

**Deader2818** · 2012-07-17 21:29

Gamestop bought EB games a while ago, if you go to EB games you are going to Gamestop.

Kompton was the coach in LA for their Power play, so take that for what its worth.
