I'll guarantee right now that he won't resign in Edmonton for any amount of money, you can quote me on that. :thumbsup: I think it's a good move though, Edmonton is likely to miss the playoffs, at least the got something for him.

If Islanders make the playoffs and DiPietro stays hot, watch out for them, they could be this years "Cinderella" team.

What do you guys think about Roberts and Laraque in Pittsburgh?

I think those two going to pittsburgh is great. They need some muscle and i really like big George and how can't Roberts help them in a playoff run, leadership and experience and still some good skills.

my thought's/stuff on the day's trades...

- flames get david hale from jersey, good trade for depth and future, think phaneuf type guy with less offense (according to TSN), basically also swapping picks = : up:

- buffalo getting zubrius to add to the already amazing offense:eek:

- also SJ getting guerin to there also pretty decent offense

-pitts getting veteran roberts for leadership down the stretch, and finally getting an "enforcer" for sid the kid

- also buff picking up biron and another GK

Philly picked up Biron, he used to play for Buffalo.

Biron is UFA this summer, and he wasn't playing in Buffalo, he wanted to go somewhere that he could play, even if that's just for the remainder of the season. Better late I suppose... Biron also made 2 million a year as a backup, Conklin makes less than that.

He would and just might. Problem is that the Oilers might not be able to afford him. He loves playing in Edmonton and has many family reasons to stay. It's not exactly like he hated Edmonton and wanted out. Exact opposite actually but this is his only chance to bank in while he's at his peak. If Oilers flash the cash then he'll be an Oiler again.

I'm sure he liked Edmonton, but not enough to stay there for the offer that was tabled. People say the offer and what Smyth wanted had only a $200-300 000 difference. What people don't seem to realize is that over the period of 5 years that's a difference of $1 000 000, minimum. Not exactly what I would call close.

At any amount. For 5.5million I'm sure Smyth would sign back with Edmonton.

Smyth was playing hardball because he knows that 5.2-5.3 million a year will still be there in the summer. He's unrestricted at seasons end and I could see him signing with Edmonton. Either 5.2-5.3 million for a long term deal or for the full 5.5 but for a much shorter term deal.

But chances are he'll sign with someone else.

edit: TSN and Sportsnet keeps using Tanguay as an example for the pay scale. Kinda makes me chuckle to think that in an indirect way it was Sutter's fault that Smyth is gone from Edmonton.

Someone will pay him what he thinks he deserves, that team probably won't be Edmonton. Remember, no home team discount, Edmonton would likely have to match any offer he recieves from other teams during the summer, and that could be more than 5.5 million. I stand by my comment that he won't be signed by Edmonton. We'll see in the summer though. ;)

I don't get why they're using Tangs as an example. Ryan Smyth was the face of their franchise. We have Iggy. The only reason Tangs is getting paid that much is because he's an exceptional player. Ryan Smyth, not so much. All he does is stand infront of the net and bang away. He's a leader for sure but not an exceptional player like Tanguay. Smyth doesn't make evryone around him better; Tanguay does.

I don't see how they compare.

A goal is a goal, no matter how it comes. Smyth has a point per game, 31 goals and 22 assists, that's pretty good. However even if he had played 63 games he would be on par with Tanguay and Langkow, so he's not really worth what he's asking. Oilers should be happy he's gone, that money can be better spent elsewhere. He's a great player, but not worth that kind of money, especially if they can't make the playoffs.

:werd:
A goal is a goal. He has the best hand eye co-ordination in the league and is the best at his style of hockey (being the garbage goal man).
He was asking for Tanguay money but he was the face of the Oilers so he demanded a little more. TSN also said that its also because Smyth has more creditentials than Tanguay. (ie World championships and Olympics)

I honestly hope somehow Edmonton and Smyth reach some sort of agreement in the middle. He is good for hockey and good for the Oilers.

Islanders' Simon suspended for balance of regular season and Playoffs
Mar 11, 2007, 9:35 AM EST
Minimum 25-game Ban Could Include Games At Start of 2007-08

NEW YORK - New York Islanders forward Chris Simon has been suspended, for the remainder of the 2006-07 regular season and the entirety of the Stanley Cup playoffs, for deliberately using his stick to injure New York Rangers forward Ryan Hollweg during the third period of Thursday night's game at Nassau Veterans' Memorial Coliseum.

Simon is suspended a minimum of 25 games, including Saturday night's game against Washington plus the 14 that remain in the 2006-07 regular season. If the Islanders do not qualify for the 2007 playoffs, or play fewer than 10 playoff games in the 2007 playoffs, Simon would serve additional games at the start of the 2007-08 regular season to satisfy the minimum term of the suspension.

"The National Hockey League will not accept the use of a stick in the manner and fashion in which Mr. Simon used his Thursday night," said Colin Campbell, NHL Senior Executive Vice President and Director of Hockey Operations. "As a consequence of his actions, Mr. Simon has forfeited the privilege of playing in an NHL game again this season, regardless of how many games the Islanders ultimately play."

Based on his $1-million contract, which expires at the conclusion of the 2006-07 season, Simon forfeits a minimum of $80,213.90. The money goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.

The incident occurred at 13:29 of the third period. After receiving a hard check from Hollweg, Simon swung his stick and delivered a two-handed blow to Hollweg's upper body, causing a cut on Hollweg's chin. Simon was assessed a Match penalty.

Exciting game, pens game was boring, but I'm not surprised by the outcome, in fact for the past few days I've been thinking of the series between col and det where one team won 7-1 one day, the next the other team won 7-1. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case in the pens series.

On a separate note, anyone else think that the Canuck's entrance at the beginning of the game is extremely gay? I don't know I never liked those twirling towels, and add the U2 music in with the sirens and it just seems really lame. I actually don't mind U2 at all either, it's probably just the idea of cheering on a team by twirling a towel that bothers me...like how a gay cowboy might do it.

TEAMFaint

04-12-2007, 12:22 PM

What I thought of the games I watched:

Ottawa vs Pens

Ottawa came out hot, and never stopped. Lots of players have playoff experience so it came naturally for them.

Crosby had his gitter, as well as Fluery, which really hurt the Pens. He did calm down after the 2nd period when he started to gain confidence, however it was too late.

Roberts played a very phsyical game which was fun to watch. The rest of the Penguins are gonna have to step up the physical game to put guys like Alfreddson, Spezza, Heatley, and truthfully..the top 3 lines for ottawa out of the game. It's their only chance.

Dont think the penguins are out though, game two is gonna be a whole different ball game. I'm expecting overtime.

Wild VS Ducks

What a game this was. I thought it was very entertaining to watch. I called it from the beginning of the game that the final score would be 2-1, and sure enough..I just wish it woulda went the other way around!

Truthfully, not a lot went wrong for either team. Everyone had their chances to put the puck in the net.

Both goaltenders played amazing. I love watching Backstrom, he is so calm and gives up next to no rebounds making him an outstanding goalie.

This is definately gonna be the series I watch all the way through :)

Nashville vs SJ Jose

Nobdy expected it. I did. I think Nashville has a great chance to put this series away if they play solid like they did in the 3rd period last night.

Truthfully I would have started Chris Mason over Voukoun. I think you can expect to see either/or in game 2.

I disagree with you about Turco, they couldn't really count on him and he hasn't proven anything yet. He basically played 2 1/3 games last night and faced 56 shots, 20 less than Luongo, for a stellar .910 save%. Not really great, and that averages out to only 24 shots per game when broken down.

I think the next game will be the better deciding factor on how good/bad Turco is in playoffs and how the playoff pressure will be on Luongo's mind.

Turco really reminds me of Cloutier from back in the day, awesome regular season, every season, and just can't pull it out when the chips are on the table.

If he keeps playing the puck the way he does, he is going to get burned. Don't get me wrong, he is almost as good as Brodeur when it comes down to it with puck handling, but he doesn't seem to pick his times properly. I have never seen a goalie go behind his own net when the pressure is down low.

Are you kidding me? Luongo was amazing last night no doubt , but facing 56 shots and playing for "2 and 1/3" games is crazy for ANYONE. In order for the teams to go into 4OT both goalies have to be amazing and we saw that last night. Its not how many shots you faced, its how many that you scoring chances you saved that saved your team.

the discussion isn't about Luongo anymore, how about Sopel and his back spasms caused from picking up a cracker??????

April 12, 2007
Cracker crumbles Sopel's back

Brent Sopel had a fight with a cracker. And the cracker won.

The reason defenceman Brent Sopel was out of the lineup Wednesday was "He picked up a cracker yesterday [Tuesday] and his back blew out and just spasmed out," said Canucks coach Alain Vigneault to the Vancouver Province.

Seriously?

"I swear," added Vigneault.

04-12-2007, 02:12 PM

Turco made some great saves last night, and wasn't helped by a couple of bad bounces. I think Luongo was the suspect one (before OT) letting in a couple of weak ones. Vancouver's usually pretty good at squandering a lead (let alone a 2 goal lead) in the 3rd and Luongo almost blew it for them. Overall, although Luongo made more saves, I think Turco make more better saves.

If it came down to actual scoring chances, then Luongo destroyed Turco. Being a huge Canucks fan, it was really hard to watch the game last night, they simply blew, except for the last two overtime periods. We didn't have really any great chances on Turco at all. For the first 5 periods (man is that weird to type) Turco had it pretty easy. The last goal let in by Luongo was weaksauce for sure, but the 3rd goal wasn't his fault, to me it looked like Mitchell knocked it in off his skate when the rebound came out.

listened to the call on satellite radio...gotta say from what I heard it sounded like up until the third overtime Dallas was generating a lot more good shooting oppurtunities, while vancouver was just...shooting. then the twin's started to light it up in the third overtime...

Man that was one awesome game to watch! I think this Preds, Sharks series is going to be great, so much hate right now.. and it's not a slow defensive game.

Forsberg and Kariya holding there own and knocking some bodies around I love it! and man Forsberg is a force at the moment but Dumont? Holy he's just on fire as well

Go Preds!

:werd: Its definitly heating up. This is going to be a very exciting series to watch:thumbsup:

What do you think of the Radulov hit though? I think it should most definitly be a suspension for atleast a game. That was unneccesary

Yeah It was a dirty hit, and in the replays you can see he charged in, and I only got a look at it but seems like he was leading with his elbow aswell?

It's too bad Radulov was having a breakout performance and I'm sure him and forsberg would have torched the Sharks, Hopefully he is back soon
