nobody Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Over at the TSN blog from Jay Onrait's 2010 TradeCentre Blog: Someone posted a silly trade about TSN reporters then Jay Onrait replies: "Whew! Well Eklund if you're reporting it I guess it's not true! Thanks for putting my mind at ease Eklund!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spndnchz Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Tampa Bay trade Halpern to LA Kings for Ted Purcell and a third round pick they got from Florida. Canucks trade M.Schneider to Coyotes for prolly a pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies for not remembering who gave that sage advice. What? He can't use his cell phone while in the stall??? C'Mon DR and OSP, let's get this team some help....they've been reeling for six weeks now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnabov Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I'm preparing myself to hear the: "We like the team's current chemistry" or "The asking price was too steep today" or some such similar excuses. Hope I'll be proved wrong in the next hour ten though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Wings Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Why do we even have a GM? Maybe we should just take a page from the Bills and go without... save the salary... the net outcome will be the same. Apparently, we're asking too much of this "GM". I mean, what's the point of trying to improve your team that would be in the playoffs if the season ended today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Caps are going for it, as are most other contenders. Sabres are content with Ryan Miller trying to pitch a shutout every game. Sheesh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apprently there are no trades available that meet Darcy's rigourous standards of building for the future. I sure hope he hangs onto that 2nd round pick so we can get a player with 25% chance of contributing 5 years from now. Thank's Darcy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Crotch Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 C'mon Darcy. No one bats 1.000, but you won't even have an average if you don't step up to the plate! (I apologize beforehand for the lame sports analogy :) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theend Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Some people want Darcy to dump our underachievers...Some want to bolster our skaters for a playoff run, even if it means rentals... I think Darcy's torn, and that's why he's not doing anything. When we were playing well, I'm sure he thought about rentals...then we go into a tailspin, and he's caught in this mindgame of whether to 'quit' now and give up on all these players (i.e., trade Roy, Stafford, Mac, etc.), or to mortgage the future and dump prospects/picks (Ennis, Gerbe, etc.) to give this team a few missing veteran rental pieces which would propel them into the playoffs with a lot stronger play. It's not an easy decision - is this about NOW or the FUTURE? ...that said, he's paid good money to run this organization...he should have made his mind up by today.
