2013 NHL Off-Season Thread: Bluefan's Own Personal Crying Game!

[Brill Weave]

But Dupuis & Kunitz aside at least the Pens are signing younger guys.

Source just told me, Canadiens will announce that Daniel Brière has made his choice and its Montreal. #RDS

[Ratatapa]

yay another small player

[Ratatapa]

2 years 8 mill for Briere

urgh

whats a joke about it? Raffi Torres headshotted Stoll this past spring. I'm no neurosurgeon, but even if the seizure stems from some condition Stoll's always had but was never aware of, I'm sure a 260 pound thug driving his rock solid elbow into your temple doesn't help your situation.

Where's the elbow? Initial contact isn't even to the head (I disagree with Shanahan's suspension but this was the video with the best angles).

Any number of things can cause a seizure, including but not limited to: sleep deprivation, malnutrition, low blood sugar, and heat intolerance.

Also, I kinda wtf'd at Grabo getting bought out. That was a dumb contract to begin with but he's still a good player. We must really need that cap space for something.

Edit: Welp, that was a few pages late. Wow at me.

Two-year, $3 million deal for Keith Ballard with #mnwild

[Richybear]

Awesome, if Ballard's deal is anything to go by, Spurgeon's due to get $34928348234894 per shift.

Mikhail Grabovski calls Randy Carlyle a "stupid coach". That comment alone is worth $5.5 million.

A taste of Grabovski on Carlyle: "Don’t put me on a [expletive] third line and then [expletive] play [me] six minutes in a game."

I want him more now

[Ratatapa]

Lol

[Wulfgang]

Holy shit at the Erikkson / Seguin trade. Been a while since a trade of that level. Love free agent frenzy, just sucks that the Preds are never a part of it.

[Keisuke88]

2 years 8 mill for Briere

urgh

Buffalo cant even get a player that used to play for them to sign...This years going to suck, going to have the average age of the team be like 20 or 21.

He's a great player and he works his ass off. I have no idea why Carlyle threw him in the dog house and left him there, but any team will be better off with him on their roster.

Sounds like EDM has something on the go with DAL to send Shawn Horcoff there.

[Deader2818]

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 1m

Horcoff is off to DAL. Believe it's for a draft pick. TBA. Horcoff has a $5.5M cap hit but has 2 yrs remaining at $4M and $3M, respectively.

Does it really matter? Fuck Raffi Torres, don't defend him. Just LOOKING at him can cause seizures, he should be out of the NHL, right along with Cooke.

Also, don't really like that trade for Dallas (Eriksson/Seguin). We'll see how it works out but I think they gave up too much for him.

[Callisto]

That's actually pretty great for them to not have to spend as much actual cash

[Richybear]

Dear Dallas
I love you
