I dont buy that either...if it happend...greatest robbery ever... I think 640 reported the Leafs are rumoured to be sending Belfour and Belak to Detroit for Zetterberg, and then signing cujo for 2-2.5 mil.....that seems more plausible...except i dont know if the Wings have cap room for that

Well, it depends, Belfour now or in his hey day? We'll assume now, since that's what the Wings would be getting. In no real particular order: 1. Broduer 2. Kiprusoff 3. Khabibhulin 4. Turco 5. Luongo You could, possibly, even add Hasek (no idea what he'll look like) and Nabokov (less sure on this). No way this deal happens (I hope). Belfour's salary is too high (they are expecting to sign Zetterberg for less than $4 million). While the Wings certainly are lacking toughness (no McCarty and Hatcher), I am not sure the answer is Wade Belak.

Brodeur, Luongo, Khabibulin, Theodore aren't even arguable, IMO.
I'd probably put Hasek and Kipprusoff ahead of him, too...but they're more debatable. |

TSN says Brad May has signed with the Avs.
Um... what? The guy who put the bounty on Steve Moore gets signed in Colorado? The devil himself has now joined the other side? Draft Dodger... help me understand... This would be like the Leafs signed Bryan Marchem... um, never mind.

she's been semi-liking the Wings for a while now. If the Avs and and B's aren't on TV, it's generally the Wings that she watches (initially, she just watched because she thought it was cool the way the announcers called the arena "The Joe"). She also has a thing for older guys, so that also is an attraction for her.

I think you're not giving him quite enough credit. If he's unhealthy, he'll be a bum and a hinderance -- that's a given. But this is a guy who, two years ago, was hands down one of the Top 6 or 7 centers in the game. He DEFINITELY has #1 potential.

Fair enough -- definitely agree. I think you're right in saying Sundin probably will be the #1 (though I think he is as likely as anyone to be a HUGE disappointment after the lockout year), but Allison has the talent to push him. He plays really a very similar style game, and at worst, if he's healthy, will be one of the better #3 centers in the league.

I like the Allison pick-up, only because it's a one year deal. JFJ would have been a moron to song anything longer, which was what I was hearing earlier in the week... I'm glad they stuck to the single year.
Now if they sign Lindros, the Leafs will go from the "Elderly" team, to the "Cripple" team... I can hear the Toronto media now.

May to the Avs... WTF? Did they sign him so they can gang beat him in the dressing room during training camp. I would have really liked to see Moore's face when he heard about this, considering May's part of the "conspiracy" to hurt him.
Kariya to the Preds... Wow, this came out of left field. We heard Vancouver, Edmonton, San Jose, Toronto, etc. But I never thought he'd sign in Nashville. I can only assume he wants to get back to the basics and focus on hockey for awhile without the media spotlight... Call me crazy but I really don't see him in Nashville longer than two years.

Noticed the Stars signed Johan Hedberg to be the backup keeper. Farewell Ron Tugnutt.
In a chat with that Code guy and he's now saying the Oilers have thrown themselves into the Joe Thorton mix. Says they'll offer Thorton $6 mil per. If that actually happens this isn't the New NHL, it is the bizarro NHL. |
