[Terry Yake]

good pickup for the bolts. had a feeling perry would end up there

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Goddamn it!

 

[Seb]

Tabarnak

If you can't beat 'em.

Then you play golf......after the 1st round

Honestly I know he had a solid season, but surprised to see it's for 2 years

It is probably for the minimum though.

 

[De Montreal]

I mean, I hope he wins a Cup, but I don't want the Lightning to win AGAIN.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

3 peat?

Which 3 peat -- Lightning winning, or Corey Perry losing?

 

[HabsForHire]

Well, i guess tampa isn't winning it again next year

 

[Hockeyholic]

How often do players immediately sign with the team that beat them in the Finals?

Hossa in 08?

 

[Gamimenos]

I mean, I hope he wins a Cup, but I don't want the Lightning to win AGAIN.

Based on historical trends, he should hope Tampa doesn't face Montreal in the finals again.

 

[OldCraig71]

I hate that we are losing him, heart and soul player. God damn I wanted him to stay in Montreal.

 

[V13]

He lost twice in the SCF against Tampa in 2 years.

If you can't beat them join them ?

I just know Cooper was telling Perry "Come over I'll get you a ring guaranteed" and I also hope that conversation said "You can have Maroon's spot in the lineup"

 

[domiwroze]

Nice.

Perry's curse activated. It's all part of Marc Bergevin grand plan.

 

[PuckNorris]

Great Hab. Too bad he couldn't play in front of a full crowd. Would have been great to see.

 

[Rschmitz]

Is he really that productive still though? 21 points each of the last two years while someone people considered washed up by many in Parise got 18 last year (in 4 less games) and 46 the year before. Even if we ignore the 46 points for Parise two years ago, the production was very similar for each this past year and Parise is only a year older. In fact, even if you look at the lifetime stats of these two, they are eerily similar.

All that said, solid pickup for the Bolts.

But he will be a fourth liner for Bolts

 

[CupsOverCash]

Not back to back to back big rig!

 

[Rockomax]

He will be sorely missed in Montreal

 

[beowulf]

But Bergevin said he will do everything to resign him.....

 

[xxsciroccoxx]

I guess this is better than Perry joining the Leafs or Bruins...

 

[nilan30]

Get ready for the LTIR when Gabriel smashes his face in

Landeskog?

 

[Flat Ronnie]

Well, i guess tampa isn't winning it again next year

We cant play ourselves...

 

[More 2004]

Love it. Been wanting this for weeks. I got my wish.

 

[Flat Ronnie]

That Tampa 4th line is crazy:

Maroon - Pierre - Perry

 

[llamateizer]

I'm happy for Perry!
