I was just going back to last year on this thread and reading all of my tirades during free agency.


I promise to be even more hyperactive this year

We got Riley Sheahan, a young center, who isn't too bad. But I would have rather chosen Kuznetsov.

 

[Mark]

And they have no 2nd or 3rd round pick


Mark, help me out here. Tell me they are trying to trade to get back into this draft

no they're not. They didn't.

I like the 1st pick. He's pretty fats for his size and a nice 1st pass.

4th round and up we got a guys who weighs 150lbs and the other 165.

 

[Bjerknes]

Nabokov is going to the Flyers. Hmmmm.

We drafted Calle Jarnkrok in the 2nd round, yet another center.

 

[Enron]

Pens traded for Hamhuis from Phily. Gave up a 3rd round pick.

 

[Bjerknes]

Shit doesn't happen until the 6th round for us. Love it.

 

[Max]

Burke keeps picking up "tough guys who protect their teammates," which isn't always bad except for the fact that the Leafs have no one to protect. I smell another 40 years of fruitlessness.

 

[Mark]

Finally we got rid of that little turd Sergei Kostitsyn.

We gave up future considerations and that mofo for Dan Ellis and Dustin Boyd + future considerations if we don't sign Ellis.


I think it's gonna take more $$$ for him than Biron for example but he'd be worth it.

Here's what he said on his twitter page.


Very excited about the trade! Its an honor to be part of a team with such great tradition and passion! Hope we can figure something out!

 

[KB824]

Mark, I need some juicy tidbits.

Spill the beans, son

 

[Mark]

about free agency?

 

[KB824]

about free agency?

No, about your love life, or subsequent lack therof


YES. FREE AGENCY

 

[Mark]

My right hand is fine. It doesn't complain all day so that's great.

oh! Free agency?

bah! We're close to the cap so don't expect much unless we trade the other bro or Hammer.

Markov is out till December so we could save a couple of bucks till he come s back.

I heard Bélanger wants to come here but we already "packed" with centers. If we don't sign Moore then I can see it happening.

Ellis really sounds like he wants to stay here. Depends on the offer I guess. If not then I see Biron or the even worse Lalime.

If we can make the space with Andrei and Hammer gone I could see Armstrong and Volchenkov end up here but it's gonna be tough.

Frolov? bah! There were rumours last year but again, the cap. Cammallerri would like him here.

 

[KB824]

So, in other words, I'm going to be going on the same exact type of maniacal tangent that I went on last year.

 

[Mark]

with much less movement of course.

 

[Mark]

How could I forget the possible move for Italien Lombardi.



bah, like I said, we have a lot of C's.

btw, those are just name I threw out there. We'll probably end up with one.

Yeah, I know who he is. I just put the wrong first name.

Same average player, however.

 

[Enron]

Hopefully the Pens can re-sign Gonchar, sign Hamhuis and get a decent right winger (Colby Armstrong?).

 

[KB824]

Gonchar is gone.

Signed with Ottawa, 3 years, 5.5 million per year
