GDT: Free Agent Frenzy - Part III

[DKH]

What do you mean? Talk of playing Spooner on the RW?

Joking since we did not acquire one today.

TSNBobMcKenzie: MIN trades Devin Setoguchi to WPG for a draft pick.

To WPG?

 

[Dabruins]

I think Chia is going after Iginla. When he spurns us again, we go after Penner, when he goes back to LA, Chia will say we are fine and have lots of flexibility going into next season.

 

[Trap Jesus]

Who else is in on Iginla? Starting to think he's the guy.

I've heard the Kings.

 

[DKH]

What is your twitter handle?

What is twitter?

I actually don't know why people here expected anything. Nothing really happened the last two offseasons in terms of signings, nothing really happened the last two trade deadlines (Jagr being the exception). I feel like every free agency day Chia hasn't made moves, so those complaining probably should have expected to be let down.

I'm All In for Iginla

The Bruins couldn't do better than a draft pick???

 

[Broonzfanz]

Do we want Penner

Knight on the second line because yolo

 

[Coach Parker]

Lucic - Krejci - ROOKIE
Marchand - Bergeron - ROOKIE
Eriksson - Kelly - ROOKIE
Paille - Campbell - Thornton

Soderberg
Spooner
Knight
Khokhlachev
Fraser

Chiarelli mentioned having lines in pairs as the possible option. I still think Eriksson with Lucic and Krejci makes the most sense and a rookie going with Soderberg/Kelly and Iginla with Marchand and Bergeron.

Watch out for the offersheet option as well. Chiarelli is busy at something after freeing up cap space in the Seguin deal.

To me, nothing would say "panic" move more than putting Penner's tubby, slow body on the wing and saying "Tada! There is our top 6!"

Sign Russell Crowe. Great shot, spent some time in Alaska.

Meh, I think he'd be better suited for an enforcer role

Makin' movies, makin' songs, and fightin' round the world!

 

[BallroomBitz]

He could also fill the player-coach role, just in case some sour on Claude again.

Plays well against the rangers.

Sign Russell Crowe. Great shot, spent some time in Alaska.

Adam Banks would bring the high end scoring this team truly needs.

 

[Pay Carl]

Really wish we could have nabbed seto. Or anyone, really just anyone. Would be nice to have a right wig this year, I dont think Thornton is ready for that 1st line role yet

At least we'll be getting a better draft pick

Minnesota wild are working on something big...part of which has happened already with Setoguchi traded to Jets.

 

[N o o d l e s]

Penner is pretty solid in the playoffs, I just want no part of putting up with him over the course of a full regular season.

 

[Bojakees*]

Iginla is a lock for 20-25 goals. Sign him to a 1 year deal or 2 year deal - like Alfie's. Can always use him as trade bait at the deadline if it doesn't work out....teams always look to add veteran leadership at the trade deadline. He's our best option IMO.

THIS, THIS and some more of THIS....

It's business and we cant let what happened deter us from icing the best team. If Jerome would come here he would be admitting he blew it in march and man enough to do that and CHIA would have a motivated player. 2 year deal would be PERFECT.

 

[BadBruins]

Setoguchi's a 26 year old who's good for 25 goals and 150 hits. Would make a solid 2nd liner or great 3rd liner. Good value for a 2nd round pick.

 

[ap3lovr]

we got Iginla!

 

[Dabruins]

IGINLA to BOSTON!

 

[Trap Jesus]

Iggy!
