BREAKING NEWS:

Chicago signs UFA defenceman Brian Campbell to an 8 year deal worth $56.8-million
New York Islanders sign defenceman Mark Streit to a five-year contract worth $20.5 million
couldn't agree with you more..i guess fletch saw somethign in him and really didn't want him to get away...the thing that bugs me though is that even finger was surprised that he was getting that type of money ugh..but lets hope ron can do something with our d, they are relatively young and should learn quick..and that's what i'm hoping for with mccabe..GSRO - agree, I do 'like' both players but Finger is severely overpaid for a stay at home defenseman... but the one plus is both are young and hopefully the front office sticks to this line of thinking and avoids going after guys who are past their prime, like in all the years past
oh ya totally forgot about jose...i'm still not sold that he's back to his rgular game..hossa deal is nuts... the top line wil begsro, the caps signed jose theodore to a 2-year deal yesterday.
also, wowsers on hossa. 1-year 7.4 mil. guess he just wants one shot at the cup, then accept a rediculous contract next year?
they have the capsapce to sign him to a one year deal....but man think of some of the liens you could think of..co worker and i were thinkingjeebus... Wonder if they will still make a play for Sundin
Cat, I think he was kind of hidden in Atlanta for the most part... he could take over games if he wanted. Played really well in the playoffs, especially when he doesnt need to be the go to guy come playoff time. Detroit has enough of those.
Hell if Finger can make 3.5 Id pay Hossa just under 8
He is good SC, but I think Pittsburgh would've probably gotten just as far with the players they gave up for him is all Im saying...I got to think Fletcher must know what hes doing with Finger...With all the talk last year about the bad contracts that JFJ gave, surely Cliff thought about this long and hard, plus Cliff has an eye for talent...Or hes gone insane which is always a possibility given his age lol
I like what Cliff is doing for the most part so far anyways
