Um, what the ****? What's wrong with this article?

It's nice to feel wanted for once.

I'd take him for cheap if Grabo will be out a while. But he isn't getting more than 17 minutes of ice time...that's for sure.

 

[seafoam]

I don't think that's a credible source, and we already have a bunch of middle six left wingers (although Lee is looking like better and better each game on the top line).

Lol, it is amazing how fast perception changes.

 

[First Blood]

Now it is time for us to turn there back on them.

They wanna come here, they aren't allowed. BUILD FROM WITHIN

 

[BarBeauWahlDobLok]

I'd be interested in Shawn Bergenheim... or anyone who's going to help the PK. That's my biggest concern.

The Article states New York Islanders, and MTL Canadians are also on "HIS" list. He can want to go wherever he wants, doesnt mean the Isles are interested in HIM!

He's a damn good player though. I really like Glencross.

He's a good all around player and would definitely be an asset.

 

[TheWhiteWhale30]

Screw Glencross and bergy...very little interest and petty much 0 after they demanded a trade...don't need guys like that. Want a good 3rd liner ? Jussi Jokinen.

 

[A Pointed Stick]

He's a damn good player though. I really like Glencross.

I agree. All I would look at right now is:

Is the player on a short contract?
Is he better that Strait and Donovan?
Will he cost much in trade?
Is he defensively sound?

Sounds like a fit there.

Glenncross is a left wing no?

 

[A Pointed Stick]

Glenncross is a left wing no?

Lol, yes, but those are my general requirements. The defenseman we need more than CGc will fit those parameters. We likely need to fill a depth hole though at forward with all the forwards we have lost. That is where CGc comes in.

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

Is he better than Donovan?

You're playing a fools game since that eliminates everyone.

Staple tweeting about Wisniewski being a healthy scratch tonight against the Rangers. Interesting

I doubt he's being dealt, but I'd love him back. He;ll always be a favorite after what he did to Avery. And I think his contract ended up being pretty fair.

Of Corsi, you have me there.




And Wang will never bring the Wiz back after the whole hot dog in the mouth thingee.

 

[stranger34]

the strength of this team now is a glaring need. We need another forward with the rest of the season in question for Grabo and KO so we can get back to rolling 4 lines.

Probably another D-man also, plenty of rental guys available. Winnik and Michalek would be tremendous additions to this team IMO and probably wouldn't need to give up much other than picks.

Think he has pretty decent sized contract also, he isn't type of D-man they need anyway.

 

[Peen]

I remember seeing an "elite penalty killer" thread to the isles, but for some reason no one really liked the canucks guys we offered up. don't know why tbh

a free one will probably be brandon mcmillan. he's here to just plug in because we're injured up front, and will probably be back on waivers within the next few wks

he's very pluggy, doesn't skate fast. but, he's been very good on the penalty kill IMO.

We have the personal to be competent on the PK, its the system that kills us. Its completely useless, and Cronin is an awful PK coach that needs to be fired asap.

 

[SLAPSHOT723]

Every time we talk about getting a bottom-6 PKer like McClement or now I guess McMillan I just don't see a fit for where they'd play at even strength.

And WangMustGo is right, it's all Cronin. We have the personnel to have the best PK in the league.

 

[LeapOnOver]

More rumors about Lupul. I remember a few years ago guy lit the lamp almost every time he shot the puck. I even made a splash screen for my tablet of a video of him breaking the goalie cam.

Just wish he wasn't so injured all the time and he was more of a rental than still having four years left on that contract. Stupid leafs. Still, I'm not a math guy but if the Isles could get him in without running into danger of throwing the cost of small island at Boychuk I'd deal a 2nd and Donovan for him.

Herrmann suggesting we should make a bold move and trade one of Reinhart or Pulock for a veteran forward...not sure I agree but I do think we need to make a move.

Also the veterans that are on the market could be had for way less then Reinhart or Pulock.
