Rick Nash to the Rangers for Brandon Dubinsky, Artem Anisimov, Tim Erixon, and a 1st. unsure.gif

Rangers back to their old tricks of big signings. Nice to see Rick getting a chance in the other conference.

Nash-Richards-Gaborik is one hell of a scary first line, at least on paper...

all that matters is making the playoffs and putting the puck in the net in the playoffs. gaborik sucks in the playoffs, at least this past one he did. richards was ok and i'm not sure about nash. i'm not crazy about the deal. i like to build up and win within the farm system with minimal big signings on the outside. nash is no spring chicken either.

The Rangers are going to lose some depth with this move... Nash isn't worth it

Yeah, there seems to be a trend lately towards more balanced offence, and giving up two secondary scoring options to get one guy kind of runs contrary to that. It gives them a really good top line, but hey, the Leafs had an awesome top line too, and look where it got them.

 

 

Semi-interesting side note: the Jackets now have three first-round picks in 2013. Huh.

3? Hopefully that can get their organization somewhere... The Rangers top line is good yes i will agree but thats only if gaborik can actually come back to his old self

Preds match the Shea Weber offer sheet.

Will they have enough for the ice girls? unsure.gif

They might need to replace the arena staff with underpaid illegal immigrants. Maybe the bottom six as well.

First, they'd have to move to Arizona. wink.gif A possible vacancy, there.

Semin to the Canes confused13.gif

for 7 mil..... wacko.gif

Only a one-year deal though, and they're nowhere near the cap so it doesn't really matter.

 

 

With Skinner, Semin, and the Staals up front, they could be pretty scary if Cam Ward has a good season...

yes, but that is a lot of money for one season for him....and what really is the point of signing him to 1 year? It's not like they are going to be a contender (if they even make the playoffs).....IMO

Yeah, that's true...maybe they're using it as a tryout? Who knows.

The new goal song of the Vancouver Canucks is to be "Electric Worry" by Clutch. The lyrics include words "Bang, bang, bang, bang! Vamanos, vamanos." huh.gif

 

I dunno, I don't really care too much about the goal song, I'm too busy trying to watch the replay. As long as it plays frequently smile.gif
