  1. I don't care if we have 1 and 3, you take Reinhart. He has the look of a star forward, to me. The rest look like they're going to be key contributors at best, but not game changers. Reinhart is the ultimate goal in my mind.

     

    The most hilarious thing I've seen today:

     

    "The NHL gave the New Jersey Devils more today than the New York Islanders got for Thomas Vanek."

     

    :w00t:

  2. IMHO, our big problem next year might be goaltending. The tandem of Enroth/Neuvirth doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

     

    I think that is by design with Murray. If we're going all in on the tank we almost have to have below average goaltending. If Miller wasn't here this season we would be a clear cut last place club rather than one that is just probably a last place team. Don't forget, I'm sure we won't be the only ones tanking next year.

     

    Having said that, I wish we had or I hope that Murray intends on bringing a very good goaltending prospect to our farm system. Demko with the late first we would get if the Blues make the conference finals?

    Give Tallinder a one year $25 million extension.

     

    Haha nice.

     

    I don't know if it's because of him or not but Christ Myers is playing so much better the past couple of months that if it was due to him then pay the man!!

    I can already say that it wasn't phenomenal. Whether it was good (minimum) or very good (max) depends on the details of the Moulson deal.

     

    I agree it hasn't been great but looking at the deals completed today I'm really liking what went down on Friday.

  5.  

     

    I agree if a deal comes along he will be pulled off the ice. Not a big deal. I'm kinda hoping that Vanek doesn't have alot of market because of his contract and knowing most teams that he probably won't re-sign with whoever he gets traded to. Let the Islanders get screwed twice.

     

    I disagree, best case scenario for buffalo regarding moulson is isles trade vanek soon and for a good package. There is a school of thought that teams might be using buffalo to lower the price for vanek. Pretty scary it's snow potentially setting the market for moulson.

    I am fine with keeping him for next season but the guy isn't someone I am paying money for. He is a floater, go look at his puck possession numbers.

     

    You know fine, y'all want to have a ####### for the kid go for it but count me out.

     

    I'm just asking you to get your stats right. Maybe if you realized he actually scored 28 twice and not once and also scored a bunch (led the blues in scoring) in the shortened season you would have a different opinion of him.

  7.  

    Stewart we can tender an offer too until UFA starts because that is when he will be in the last year of his deal. My issue with Stewart is he floats. Watching him in the last couple games I can't help but notice how disinterested he is. Christ Stewart has one season in the 20goal, so he isn't a 25-30g scorer. He is a 15goal scorer and honestly I could take or leave that.

     

     

    it is the perfect time too. We need scoring LW's and we have more cap room than just about anyone.

     

    You had better check your stats again as he scored 28 in 09/10 and 28 in 10/11 as well as 18 in 48 games in the short season last year. I know you love projecting out numbers. So even including this down year he has scored or on pace for 25 plus in 3 of 5 years.

  8. Just in time for his UFA year to hit in 2015 an sign with a contender for more $. Unfortunately, the only way to get players for a rebuild is to lock up their rights for multiple years.

     

    That's true, but we can push a trade with OTT or whoever back to the trade deadline if need be. I don't really think of Stewart as your prototypical deadline rental type player anyways. He may still go before tomorrow but if not then I think something can happen in the summer if that's the way TM wants to go.
