| HELL ON EARTH (NHL) Posted: 7/1/2008 11:18:13 AM | Well, today is free agency day.... I'm a huge Sens and Oilers fan and I'm watching this thing like a hawk... Yesterday (prior to F.A. Day), the oilers got rid of 2 key guys... Today they lost Pitkanen... (picked up cole but come on..)
The Sens have 16 players on FA Listing... Anyone care to vent with me or talk about other teams in the league? | |

| HELL ON EARTH (NHL) Posted: 7/1/2008 11:53:13 AM | hahahahaha
my team traded a overpaid player in effect getting a younger, faster player that fits the system more. waived 3 players that need to go, and has the core signed all at discount prices. no need to vent here.
enjoy the basement oilers fans
go flames go in sutter we trust | |

| HELL ON EARTH (NHL) Posted: 7/1/2008 1:13:25 PM | | Vancouver offered Mats Sundin a $20M, 2yr deal... TAKE IT SUNDIN!!! You might make it back into the playoffs :p | |

| HELL ON EARTH (NHL) Posted: 7/1/2008 1:39:08 PM | a few more signings in the headlines:
Leafs bring back Cujo for one year Leafs give Finger huge raise Sauer signs four-year deal with Coyotes Tucker heads to Colorado Ottawa Senators sign goaltender Alex Auld Tampa Bay Lightning sign Olaf Kolzig Capitals lure Theodore with $9M deal Lightning sign Vrbata from Phoenix Wings hold onto Stuart, bring in Conklin Dupuis re-signs with Pens for 3 years Capitals sign Green to four-year deal

I thought we might get Finger or Sauer from the Avs and cujo. Finger still has tons of upside and he better for the size of the contract they just handed him. See if Cliff bags us a forward now like Ryder or Williams. EDIT: Feaster must be running on bennies with all the signings he's done this weekend. It was rumored tampa was going after Ryder but now that they've grabbed Vrbata they'll maybe lay low. I don't know how much cash they have left to spend but they've got Kolzig, Prospal, Vrbata, Roberts and Malone to go along with the huge contract they just gave Vinny as well as last weeks drafting of top prospect Stamkos and picking up a flyer d Niskannenin a trade..
Blackhawks sign netminder Huet Tampa Bay adds Hall, Raycroft joins Avs Stillman agrees to terms with Panthers | |

| HELL ON EARTH (NHL) Posted: 7/1/2008 3:27:00 PM | Sens just lost Stillmen AND Commodore... not looking good for them...
So much activity around the league, i'm enjoying it XD | |

| HELL ON EARTH (NHL) Posted: 7/1/2008 3:52:38 PM | """...Sens just lost Stillmen AND Commodore... """
They had no intention of resigning either of them so no great loss for Murray.
Campbell gets the big bucks to play for the Hawks along with Huet. Theodore gets 9 mill for two seasons in Washington. Man, when you think back on how Jose played in that series against detroit you have to kind of wonder about the price tag. Huet nabbed himself 4 years at 22 and a half.
Rangers made a nice signing bagging Ristmiller from San Jose. Rolston goes back to the Meadowlands in jersey where it all began for him.
EDIT:And the leafs grab young Nicklas Hagman off the Star's. matti's son. Good signing. | |
