Pierre, I've noticed something about you...
A lot of your posts tend do deal with the idea that "this is exactly like this and can be no other way."
This means you deal in absolutes. This means you are a Sith.
Vader the Great?!?
Just a quick note: Not much chance of Shanahan going back to the Rangers with 14 mill being used on 2 players and a couple key RFA's to re-sign (Lundqvist, Prucha).
Does Gainey make on offer?
If a team that isn't desperate offers Souray more than 5 mill, I'll be surprised.
If Souray goes to a desperate (ie BAD) team for more than 5 mill instead of a good team for less money, I'll be even more surprised.
I don't know him personally, but it doesn't seem to be in his character.
Didn't Souray himself say "6 million is too much for me"?
I mean....it wouldn't be the first time an athlete has done the exact opposite of what they said before their free agency (Johnny Damon anyone?) but for now I'll give Souray the benefit of the doubt.
"Since the one thing we can say about fundamental matter is, that it is vibrating. And since all vibrations are theoretically sound, then it is not unreasonable to suggest that the universe is music and should be perceived as such."
