[Cigar City]

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.


sfy.

 

[Yzlamic Preacher*]

Wtf for honeybadger! Wtf Yzerman

 

[The Wyzerhood]

Fml!

 

[indigoo]

Are you ****ing kidding me?! Goddamnit Yzerman, you're willing to give up top prospects for ****ing Ben Bishop but not for Ryan Miller?! **** you!

I'm sorry guys, we would have loved Conacher for Miller...

 

[Cigar City]

April fools?

CC for ANOTHER ****ING UNPROVEN GOALIE. This is laughable from everybody else's perspective except ours.

Might as well have added another prospect and a pick to see if we could nab Miller.

No **** man. Conacher + 4th for another untested goalie. Miller must have been insane asking price. DO NOT like the price for this guy. Ugh.

 

[AlphaCatalyst]

Do not like this at all.
Not big on Bishop and hate hate hate seeing Cory go.

Bishop had better play godlike

 

[Pohlow]

Conacher for bishop? Holy ****, yzerman, you are drinking some strong stuff

 

[InjuredChoker]

 

[The Wyzerhood]

**** this team, can't do anything right

 

[jg39]

Overpayment ; Don't like losing Conacher either...

I like goalie competition though. Also, if we need someone to fix or maintain the Tesla coils, Bishop can stand on Lindback's shoulders.

**** this team, can't do anything right

My wife is even pissed. She loved Cory.

Bishop is going to be at least a good backup goalie. He's a really great guy to have in the locker room. He has the potential to be an amazing #1 goalie but he really is a mystery.

 

[NHLeitner]

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

If Killorn gets shipped out today too I'm going to be just as pissed as I was when Downie got sent to Colorado.

 

[Church]

I feel very bad for you guys... You got robbed... I hope Bishop will be amazing for you guys

[vanskillZ]

This must be a bad dream

 

[FDfranklin]

Really unhappy with getting rid of Conacher for an unproven goalie. I feel bad for everyone who bought his Jersey already.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

WTF is this!? Seriously?

 

[Hale The Villain]

I know you guys are pissed, but Bishop is a solid goaltender. He has been great for us this year, and I think he could certainly be a starting goaltender for you guys.

5-6 teams were fighting hard to get this guy, tells you a lot about his potential.

 

[KyleBailey12]

Feel sorry for you guys, I hope Bishop can perform up to expectations.

 

[zeykshade]

I think that Johnson's game is what truly made Conacher expendable. Add in the other forward depth and...still sucks balls though. Gonna miss him.

 

[The Wyzerhood]

****ing awful trade, I don't care if Bishop becomes a "solid" goaltender for us

 

[Stammer Time*]

This will be Yzerman's 3rd attempt at solving the goaltending problem. At the price he just paid especially when Bishop cost just a second last year it should be time for him to go.

 

[CupsOverCash]

Damn! I like Conacher. That sucks. I guess they like Johnson more.
