Peter Puck Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Wow 8 years, that's CRAZY talk. Not just 8 years, 8 years with a no movement clause. The risk is way too big compared to the possible reward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I know, what a DUMB MOVE. It's as if Bob Clarke is still running that team secretly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Free agent defenceman and Michigan native Brian Rafalski has agreed to a five-year, $30 million contract with the Detroit Red Wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I know, what a DUMB MOVE. It's as if Bob Clarke is still running that team secretly. I doubt it last year Clarke said after the Islander and DiPietro deal that the longest he would sign a plyer would be 4 years unless thier last name was Crosby.

Captain_Stealth Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Sarich to Flames. Rafalski to Red Wings. Gomez to Rangers. yadda yadda yadda.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Rafalski gone too...it's not gonna be another one of those summers? Hannan Souray Gomez Drury left. I do not think any of those centres are coming here but I am optimistic of one of those defenseman. Sarich to Flames. Rafalski to Red Wings. Gomez to Rangers. yadda yadda yadda.... I have seen nothing but rumours that Gomez is a ranger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Stealth Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Sorry about that guys. I've been gone all morning and just got home and saw on HF that Gomez was going to the Rangers, but instead it's one of those god damn eklund rumours......

smon Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I don't care honestly, the Flyers will still be a much better team next season. It's nowhere near as bad as the deal Yashin was given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I don't care honestly, the Flyers will still be a much better team next season. It's nowhere near as bad as the deal Yashin was given. Well if the Flyers are better that means less wins for the Devils Rangers Islander and Penguins all of which made the Playoffs. The Flyers owned the Habs last season so nothing should change there.

MAK Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 today I didnt see a decent signing briere for 8 years ?? come on, I thought we agreed milburry was domb to sign Yashin long term. theyre not the same player but briere os not worth the risk. rafalski for 6: go D but not at 6. sarich for 3.6 ??? since when as he become a top notch D ??

smon Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Sarich ain't worth 3.5...Rafalski is good enough to be a #1. He's worth 6M - it's probably what Markov would have got on the open market. The Chicago Blackhawks have signed forward Yanic Perreault to a 1-year $1.5 million contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
