Rumors/Speculation Thread

you can have him. hes a fuckin bum.
he will definitely take at least a 3 million dollar pay cut. minimum.
hes a 60 point forward

 

[playmaker7]

Playing on a line with Crosby he's an 80 point forward

You see how Bill Guerin is benefiting

 

[Yankees2772]

Yeah, Guerin's on pace for 50...

 

[eLeMeNOhPe]

That's pretty good for a 39 year old who barely (by barely, I mean like 5 times) hit 60 points most years in his career

You say he is a 60 point player but he should only be paid $1 million? Most 60 point players don't make just $1 million..

yea good point, hes still a bum that doesnt come close to deserving what he makes

 

[playmaker7]

No one told the Blues to overpay for him then. Its not Kariya's fault he took that massive deal

But yeah talking about Guerin...he's cooled down but he's doing his job. This is his last year in Pittsburgh though. Don't think they'll be keeping him. Too costly

I'm hoping Ray Whitney will be traded to Pittsburgh though

Stars Receive:
Kari Lehtonen G

Atlanta Receives:
Ivan Vishnievsky D
2010 4th Rounder

Kari is a good goalie but come on dude, step it up

Now, where does Turco go?

Now, where does Turco go?

Trade bait, I guess.

 

[The Guid]

That's obvious, I'm saying where does he end up. Chicago, Washington?

Philly could be a possible destination for him. Emery can't stay healthy and their depth in goaltending is weak.

 

[Gtown81]

I'll be surprised if Dallas can even get rid of Turco, not too many teams are in need of a goalie.

lol?
Blues, Hawks, Flyers, Caps (less than others but theo and varly are unreliable)
Mason pisses me off and Conklin cant win at home.
Huet is awful, and they dont trust Niemi, he is shaky.
Emery is hurt all the time, and might need surgery, leighton is OK, but boucher is not good.

 

[Gtown81]

for St. Louis to get Turco it would make no sense, Turco and Mason's stats are identical, they're not going to get a goalie just because Mason pisses you off

Hawks don't need a goalie, they're in 3rd place in the NHL, Huet has decent stats and Niemi has been far from shaky plus they couldn't afford Turco anyways

Flyers could maybe use Turco but they don't have the cap space to trade for him, they'll probably stick with Emery and Leighton

The Caps are fine in net too

i know.
Huet is AWFUL.
True
Caps need a reliable tender

 

[Gtown81]

well if they could get rid of Theodore I could maybe see them getting Turco, but imo they should be patient with what they have right now, they've got a lot of young talented goalies

 

[playmaker7]

Well they're going with 3 goalies right now...so we'll have to wait and see but all signs point to a trade

 

[The Guid]

Olympic freeze deadline:

Matt Cullen to the Senators for Alex Picard and a draft pick
Jody Shelly to NYR
Chi-Min talking trade, no word yet on if a deal had been reached

 

[playmaker7]

Cam Barker to the Wild maybe?
