Cammaleri to Montreal, 5 years 30 million, seems about right.

WOW

[VegasDave]

I don't think Kopitar is working out in LA....If i was kings GM I'd go big right now and go for a power forward combo, like gaborik/gionta or havlat/sullivan

Well I'm REALLY glad you aren't GM.

Kopitar's rookie season he scored 61 points in 72 games...

2nd season he was almost a point per game with 32 goals and 45 assists..

Last season in a frustrating year for the whole team due to Murray instilling a DEFENSE FIRST system AND without top flight talent around him Kopitar still had 27 goals and 39 assists (66 points)

AND he's only 21 years old. How is he not working out???

[VegasDave]

Cammy to Montreal makes perfect sense... another me-first skill player with no toughness.

I never said I would get rid of him right now...I do think his production this next year should decide whether he stay or leaves though. My point was that the kings need 6 solid forwards, which they never have

Greg Zanon to Minnesota, 3 years 1.73 per season, good deal for Minnesota.

[VegasDave]

You are 10 posts away from 3000 Element! May your 3000th post read Kings sign Marian Gaborik

I'd rather it state "Francouis Beauchemin sign with Penguins." But either way.

Komisarek to Leafs-

[betplom]

Komisarek to Leafs-

Fvck , who the hell wants Montreal castoffs?

[VegasDave]

Komisarek at 6M/per? Good God man.

[VegasDave]

Scratch that; 5 years, 4.5M. Better.

[element1286]

Komisarek at 6M/per? Good God man.

Jesus Christ, the guy has no offensive game.

[element1286]

Scratch that; 5 years, 4.5M. Better.

Ok, that isn't awful, but a little high, IMO.

[VegasDave]

Agreed, but in this market it could be worse. At 27, perfect age to sign a D-man to a 5 year deal.

steve begin to Boston -

[element1286]

Steve Sullivan stays with Nashville, 2 years 3.75 per season, seems a little bit high to me.

[VegasDave]

Steve Sullivan stays with Nashville, 2 years 3.75 per season, seems a little bit high to me.

Again, gotta remember the market... and I like the 2 year term. I'd rather pay a little extra and have him for 2 years then give him a longer deal I think.

I guess the fans love him there, they should pick up another guy too though

True, it's not like Nashville is close to the cap either, he was probably worth more to the Preds than any other team in the league.

Sammy Pahlsson to Columbus -

3 year $7.95 mil

[VegasDave]

Pahlsson to Columbus, 3 years 2.65/per. LOVE that signing. Pahlsson is one of the most underrated defensive centers in the game. Good fit for Hitchcock.

[element1286]

I've always liked Sammy Phalsson as well, contract is ok.

[lakerboy]

great move by leafs to get komisarek- stud tough as nails guy perfect fit

[blittydeuce]

I wouldn't say he is underrated, he won the selke trophy a few years back....its common knowledge that he is one of the top defensive forwards

[tullamore]

Leafs needed to add toughness to their team. Komisarek will get the crowd going with his big hits. He is a solid defenseman and fits Burkes player model.

Garon to Columbus -

Marion Gaborik to the NY Rangers

5 years $28.75 mil

[element1286]

Marion Gaborik to the NY Rangers

5 years $28.75 mil

A lot of years, and a lot of money for someone is if oft injured.

[element1286]

Oh god, the Gaborik deal is actually 5 years 7.5 million per year.

Yep, that sounds a lot more like a Ranger deal.

[element1286]

Brian Gionta to Montreal, 5 years 25 million. Gainey fukks up again.

The Habs are acquiring small centermen and slow defensemen, what an awful day for them.

The players the Habs are signing are going to smaller than the players that win the Quebec Peewee Torunament this year.

[blittydeuce]

Bob Gainey doesn't fuk around. Cammalleri, Gomez, Gionta, Gill, Spacek

[element1286]

Chris Neil resigns with Ottawa, 4 years 8 million.

John Madden to Chicago -

1 year $2.75 mil
