What did you like about it? We were outplayed for 45/65 minutes, we gave up a late goal, so we didn't steal the win, we failed on 3 2 on 1s, the shoot out was alright, but it just is a nothing win, we can't afford to hand out too many loser points

Unsatisfying win

it would explain why they matched so quickly. If they waited a day they couldn;t trade him till the offseason 2014 - when his contract would be up

Grigo got 2 shifts in the last 40 minutes - both in the second. We can't go into this style of game every time we get a one goal lead

Looks like Grigo will be sat for this whole period. I really don't get how this helps the guy. I have no problem with 10-12 minutes, but 5 seems pointless - especially when he is sat for entire periods/games

RR doesn't like Grigo does he: Scratch 6:00 5:25 5:02 (so far)

They can't for 12 months

I wonder if they trade him in 12 months so they don't have to sign him to a 6.5m contract after this one

It is their GMs fault - he had offers

Maybe ROR had no interest in us. Vancouver also offer sheeted him and he refused

Surely Florida would be better to cut ticket prices by 40% and fill up the remaining 50% of the arena. More money and the illusion of fans

His next contract will be a horrible one for a team to swallow

Yeah I thought about that, but it was too late - i'd already commented. I hope she doesn't, both for her and my sake

Would help if she could sing

Do you know what the trade was meant to be? It is fine if it gets bigger - it is front loaded they wasnted to remove

I'm not down on him, but he isn't playing the game he should be playing and isn't as effective as he should be. For all the ###### Hecht takes, there's no denying he is playing his game, Marcus isn't

I think it is the same as Grigo - it isn't to punish him as such, it is to show him how to improve his game (hint - stop playing with the puck). I think we forget how young a guy he really is

Also Stafford has been good defensively and on the Pk - he is still an asset the team. Foligno has really not contributed much in the last month - he is young as well, so i have no problem with treating him like Grigo. He should be on the 3rd line, but I think his call up last year tricked everyone into thinking he would be a more contributing player

Foligno could do with sitting, he needs to simplify his game and stop trying to dangle through people and to use his body more

He means Pickard, a goalie prospect for Col (20 years old)

NMC don't save the player from being bought out. The only reason to buy a player out with the amnesty buyout would be to save cap space. Briere is on the tail end of his contract, so isn't earning much

Breire won't wave his NMC (nor should he - he negotiated it in for stability) http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=416949

The Sedins signed for $6.1 million each and they are 80-100 point scorers. Not to mention Vanek has been over signed for 4 years. If our GM could get them to agree to $5.5 million each, what would you think then? e.g. 5 for 5

Armia is almost certainly going to the playoffs. So he won't be there to help for another month or two
