Eleven Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Dude must not be a real "locker room" guy. His 4th team is 3 years. I've always liked his game, although not really living up to where he was drafted. Dammit, I wanted Eager a couple of years ago, much less this past offseason. I agree that a 1st round pick turned out to be high for him, but as you say, I've always liked his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spndnchz Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I don't understand the logic of the waiver system some times. If I'm not mistaken, the lowest team in the standing that submits a claim gets the players, right? So, in theory, why wouldn't the Blues have the right to put in a claim at their current level, which would be below the Sharks. I guess what I'm asking is what's the logic of allowing a team that is higher in the standings to claim a player coming through waivers? Below, I could understand, but above? Only on the way down if it's more than one team trying to claim them. It's actually highest percentage of points earned, not actual points. On re-entry every club can put in an offer but the points come into play only if there is more than one team (besides team re-entering ? player) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to make a move like this, you have to make the player available to everyone else first. I see where you're coming from, but I'd say that there need to be risks associated with moves like this and those risks have to be the same for everyone.

Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 So, you see a dead man walking and decide to throw some parting shots? For what purpose? He can buy a $10 million casket with the fans' money he's lined his pockets with the past 13 years. Conehead does more work in one game than Darcy in a season.

Two or less Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Kyle Wellwood claimed by San Jose on re-entry waivers. He signed with the Blues but had to go through waivers on the way back up. Second time this season the Blues lose a guy to re-entry waivers. Wellwood could have been a cheap, half way decent center on this team at 650k. So on the same day, Sharks get a real tough guy with no hands and one of the softest guys with great hands..... are they hoping to combine Eager and Wellwood together?

I don't know, but I'd be the first to purchase an Eagerwood jersey. Well, maybe 3rd behind Ink and Korab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Eagerwood is the real tough guy with great hands, then Well would be the soft guy with no hands. I'm still not sure that I'd put him behind Ink and Korab, though. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X. Benedict Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Atlanta gets a fifth rounder. Puts SJ about 350,000 under the cap. Sounds like a soft firing. We don't want you, but they'll take you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am partial to my Peter North Jersey - see the pic below - enlarge the picture for detail If Eagerwood is the real tough guy with great hands, then Well would be the soft guy with no hands. I'm still not sure that I'd put him behind Ink and Korab, though. ;) There's a joke about soft hands and reach arounds in here somewhere, but I'm not down with dudes.
