Confirmed Signing with Link: [TBL] Corey Perry signs with the Lightning (2 years, $1M AAV)

[AHockeyFanatic]

Welcome to Tampa my guy!

3-peat!

 

[DaBolts]

Islanders 80-83 preceded by the Habs 76-79.

What a sucky decade that must have been for fans not of the Islanders and habs

I was an Atlanta Flames fan in the late 1970s..man oh man the fighting was so much fun back then (that's what made me a fan as a teenager).

 

[Siludin]

I audibly laughed when I read this signing headline

 

[AHockeyFanatic]

if Perry signs next year and doesn't get a ring, is the Perry Hat Trick losing in the finals 3 years in a row?

He’s already a champion………..

All Corey Perry thinks about is lasagna and cigarettes.

Singing Ozzy: "Who can we get on the case? We need Corey Perry!"

All Corey Perry thinks about is lasagna and cigarettes.

meh, me too pretty much

 

[T REX]

So much sour grapes

 

[BHD]

Has any player ever been on three different losing teams in three-straight years?

 

[Sentinel]

Under the previous playoff format/divisions, Montreal doesnt make it to the playoffs.

Under the O6 rules, 2012 LA Kings don't make playoffs either. More over, they don't exist in a six-team league.

 

[Telos]

If you can't beat them I guess... Surprised by the term from Tampa, but it is not like they can't bury or flip him if they had to. Clearly, Perry is cup hunting to end out his career. Never liked the guy, but good luck to him.

 

[Bood12]

Did not see this coming

 

[sandybridge]

Goodreau replacement?

 

[terranraida]

meh, me too pretty much

Yeah I'm not seeing the problem here. Lasagna is wonderful.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

I bet moving to Tampa for 2 years was a tough sell to his wife

 

[Sparksrus3]

Tampa Bay gonna lose in final Stanley Cup next year... book it!

2008 Pittsburgh traded for Marion Hossa at the deadline and they lost to the Red Wings in the finals. He then signed with the Red Wings for the following season and lost to Pittsburgh in the finals .. he had the last laugh though heading to Chicago for 3 Cup wins .... I know,I know who cares ..

 

[Natey]

You think this was a decision by Marc Bergevin to not resign Perry and you think *he's* the idiot?

Yes. It was reported yesterday Bergevin only wanted to give Perry one year.....

Bergevin has a long history of playing hardball when the ball is not in his court. Hello Radulov.

 

[DFC]

I believe this completes the NWO.

 

[HockeyShack]

Has any player ever been on three different losing teams in three-straight years?

I was going to ask the same question

 

[frederixx]

Great signing, He's a true warrior

 

[skiba77777]

Third time's the charm. Just ask Marian Hossa.

And for Hossa, the 4th and 5th times too

 

[TheTotalPackage]

I think this is an incredible signing for Tampa Bay.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

As expected, Cooper talked him into it during the handshakes

Well back to hating Perry

 

[dredeye]

Of course he does

 

[Kimota]

It's either a next level betrayal by Perry or Bergevin screwed up Radulov-style by being cheap again.
