wow, pathetic

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

No. Is this a joke?

 

[Jarnberg]

Yuck.

 

[NoNecksCurse]

I'm ready for poile to go

 

[RomanEmpire]

There's the #1C we've been waiting on.

 

[Armourboy]

I um, what?

 

[PredsV82]

at least its only for one year...

[Jarnberg]

Anyone wonder why Weber, Suter wanted out and we're on a bunch of no trade lists now?

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

He's barely a 3C now. He was terrible with Winnipeg.

 

[CMDEADLY]

For a player that has had 2 down years and could step back up on the right line it's not a terrible signing on a 1 year contract.

 

[NoNecksCurse]

128 GP 57 points in his last 2 seasons... he is a washed up 35 year old #3 C

"the right guy at the right price at the right time"

Can't get angry on a 1yr 2.5m deal I don't care who you are. I was setting my sights higher though..

 

[SeventyOneTN]

I think this will be a useful pickup, and potential deadline material if applicable.

 

[CMDEADLY]

He's barely a 3C now. He was terrible with Winnipeg.

He put up 43 points last year. 2.5 for 43 points for 1 year isn't bad my friend, once again we will be a better destination next year after FA's see the team. We arent done.

 

[Montross]

Yuck.

 

[NoNecksCurse]

"the right guy at the right price at the right time"

it's official. i have zero hopes for this team

 

[NSH615]

All I can say is I'd rather Poile sign Legwand back over this.

 

[1stLineCottonCandy]

Pls let's see what we do the rest of the day before we jump to conclusions. But on that note when do we as fans start having the right to veto stupid signings with our money they are spending

We still need a defenseman, and I wouldnt mind if we picked up another forward, but I suspect we are done shopping at Center.

btw welcome to the board!

Terrific signing... should fit right in with Kariya, Sullivan, Perreault, Erat and Hartnell... we have our top 6.

My computer is having some problems. thinks it's 2014. I don't get it. Everyone knows it's 2005. Glad the lockout is behind us!

Kind of my thought, and I've never been a Legwand fan.
