11:11

Scotty:

habs are done till sundin decides is what i hear

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:11 Scotty

11:11

Brodes:

I think they should sign Koivu. I really do.

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:11 Brodes

11:11

[Comment From kevinkevin: ]

that makes sense

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:11 kevin

11:12

[Comment From CutterovCutterov: ]

anything on the oil

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:12 Cutterov

11:12

Scotty:

the Oilers Hemsky rumors were false however we werent only people to report that rumor....Rolli could be on market though and they have to sign Garon SOON

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:12 Scotty

11:12

[Comment From mini mousemini mouse: ]

[Comment From habs123habs123: ]

Brodes, if not, what is the best FA center for the habs next summer?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:12 habs123

11:12

[Comment From ??: ]

what is the chance that sundin signs with the habs?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:12 ?

11:12

[Comment From GuestGuest: ]

Yes I agree and possible also Kovalev to an extension he shows he wants to play in Montreal

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:12 Guest

11:13

Scotty:

chances have gone WAAAAY down sundin signs with habs but still possibility all teams have equa chance however I believe the leafs may be out of it

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:13 Scotty

11:13

Brodes:

The Detroit Red Wings hold the keys towards next seasons free agent market

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:13 Brodes

11:14

Scotty:

Kovalev wants extension before training camp unlikely he gets one id wait for Christmas to ocme and see how hes doing there before giving extension

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:14 Scotty

11:14

[Comment From habs123habs123: ]

I see Kovalev resign with the Habs, he seems to get along with management

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:14 habs123

11:14

Scotty:

Kovalev has def. had a huge attitude overhaul

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:14 Scotty

11:14

[Comment From mini mousemini mouse: ]

i think that if the leafs signed him they would not end up in last place and loose out on this years top 2 draft picks

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:14 mini mouse

11:14

Brodes:

They need to sign Franzen, Samuelsson, Hossa and Zetterberg, so whoever goes from those four will be the bang for the buck

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:14 Brodes

11:15

[Comment From habs123habs123: ]

what do you mean chances have gone Waaaay down?? WHat have changed the past few weeks???

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:15 habs123

11:15

Scotty:

habs123 more teams have come into the mix

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:15 Scotty

11:15

[Comment From GuestGuest: ]

I think If Kovalev wants to play in the city and likes the team and the coach he will do what we saw last year in terms of production so going based on that we should resign him, and he might even possibly take a paycut to stay

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:15 Guest

11:16

Scotty:

Ducks Blog reporting Selanne decision comes after sundin if selanne does want to return to ducks they would free up cap space with oneof the teams after sundin to give em schnneider

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:16 Scotty

11:17

[Comment From habs123habs123: ]

Scotty, the rangers and flyers rumor is quite stupid in my opinion, for the to clear salary cap space for Sundin is illogical, they are done shopping since early july!

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:17 habs123

11:17

Scotty:

Most or aLL teams in on sundin are in on schneider as well

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:17 Scotty

11:17

[Comment From SamSam: ]

what are the chances Jiri Hudles is available?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:17 Sam

11:17

Brodes:

Hudler?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:17 Brodes

11:17

[Comment From mini mousemini mouse: ]

what ever happened to the rumor Sedins for Kovlchuck

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:17 mini mouse

11:17

[Comment From SamSam: ]

yea

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:17 Sam

11:18

Scotty:

Sam Hudler is on the market but that dont meen he does not stay

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:18 Scotty

11:18

Scotty:

Sedins for Kovalchuk haha stupid for Atlanta as much as they get the sedins ther elosing a fan favorite and superstar in Kovalchuk

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:18 Scotty

11:18

[Comment From SamSam: ]

What teams would be in for Hudler?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:18 Sam

11:19

Brodes:

Pretty high actually...he's not as coveted as say Filppulla or Franzen

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:19 Brodes

11:19

[Comment From habs123habs123: ]

do you guys fanthom Schneirder in Montreal (plan b)?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:19 habs123

11:19

Brodes:

Plus, Detroit has some great prospects (what a suprise) down the road

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:19 Brodes

11:19

[Comment From SamSam: ]

What would the wings want for him?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:19 Sam

11:20

Scotty:

i would not mind him im meen GEEZE

Komi-Markov
Hamrlik-Schneider thats a pretty good TOP 4

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:20 Scotty

11:20

Brodes:

In all honesty, I see Draper as their 4th line center. Hudler could get a 2nd line position anywhere else in the league

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:20 Brodes

11:20

[Comment From GregGreg: ]

yeah ill put the features on... im gonna change it more... i gotta go out around 12, so it wont be fully done until maybe tomorrow k

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:20 Greg

11:20

Scotty:

Sam wings woul;d likely want a prospect or picks

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:20 Scotty

11:21

Brodes:

So I think that if they ever shopped Hudler, either a prospect or a Draper type playerr who is young and can be the Draper mold

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:21 Brodes

11:21

[Comment From GuestGuest: ]

um no not really I think Gainey should just resign all of our players or make a trade given we can't sign Sundin

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:21 Guest

11:21

[Comment From kevinkevin: ]

if your anaheim and islanders. what do you think of this trade. andy hilbert as a third liner for anaheim, freddy meyer and a 5th or 4th for schneider and maybe a 7th round draft pick. isles get rid of extra men and anaheim gets to drop some money and get a needed third liner

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:21 kevin

11:21

[Comment From kevinkevin: ]

just a thought and i will be going now

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:21 kevin

11:21

[Comment From CutterovCutterov: ]

soctty what do u think of a proposal of ladislav smid for bryan allen

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:21 Cutterov

11:21

[Comment From SamSam: ]

Could Hudler be Ottawa's elusive top 6 forward?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:21 Sam

11:22

Scotty:

problem with thatis Ducks dont wanna gain any cpa space they want prospect/picks

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:22 Scotty

11:22

Brodes:

That's a good call

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:22 Brodes

11:22

Scotty:

Cutterov thats fair deal however never heard rumors

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:22 Scotty

11:22

[Comment From kevinkevin: ]

well hilbert and meyer are both below 1 mill each so

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:22 kevin

11:22

Brodes:

But we all know that Detroit and Holland will do the right thing with Hudler if he is unhappy and wants to be a second line center

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:22 Brodes

11:22

[Comment From kevinkevin: ]

bye ill be back soon

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:22 kevin

What happened to the Selanne to Montreal rumours, and that Koivu was talking to him to come to Montreal?

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:24 Guest

11:24

Scotty:

Meszaros situation remains sma eat tis time

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:24 Scotty

11:25

Brodes:

They eventually died down. We all know that Selanne and Koivu are pretty good together

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:25 Brodes

Scotty:

im really not sure man

Thursday August 21, 2008 11:27 Scotty

11:27

[Comment From GuestGuest: ]

Yes that would be a good reason to stay but they do not have the cap room, to sign Selanne and could easily make it if they move someone but he would be a good fit on Montreal, and Selanne himself knows that from Koivu
