How sick would it be if he goes to Chicago and the WCF is Canucks vs. Blackhawks.


The only problem for Vancouver is they need to get someone good enough to back up Schneider. You figure if Luongo gets traded they'll have to get someone in return so if he goes to Chicago you'd think they'd get Emery or something?

Rumors are Toronto is trying HARD to get him but Luongo doesn't really want to go there.

Even if Luongo does go to the Leafs, it won't matter. They'll simply miss the playoffs again.

Now with Jamie McGinn signed, the only player not under contract is Ryan O'Reilly. The leading point scoring with 55. (Yes, our offense was terrible).

Rick Nash to the Rangers seems pretty much done, unsure of the details at this moment though.

Rangers get Rick Nash, give up Anisimov, Dubinsky, Erixon, and a 1st.

Terrible return for Columbus, IMO. No surprise that franchise hasn't done anything with Howson at the helm.

Erixon is really the only player that's worth a shit... and he's an unproven prospect. Nicely done, Sather.

Kovalchuk and Nash started their careers together didn't they (same year I mean). Now in the same division.

Too bad for Nash he's on a team that can never live up to the hype.

They surpassed the hype last year. Who expected the Rangers to finish 1st in the conference and be in the ECF?

Sounds like you're mad that the Rangers got Nash, Ricky. :troll:

You were a 1 seed and lost in the ECF...so yeah. Not to mention I heard so many Ranger fans talking about how underrated the team was as a #1 seed.

And I'm not mad, like I said it's a team that always fails and chokes so having Nash won't change that.

No shit, sherlock. I'm talking about the expectations they had going into last season. Their ceiling was about 5th seed/2nd round. They surpassed whatever ''hype'' was put on them last season.

This Rangers team is a extremely young talented core that got 20 postseason games under their belt this past season. With that experience and adding Nash, I'd say their right on the cusp of being a legitimate Cup contender. Just don't be surprised if they follow the same route that the Blackhawks took a couple of years ago... and that's losing in the conference final and hoisting the Cup the following year.

Good luck to the Devils with the amount of aging players they have. :laugh:

The Rangers now have the best line in the NHL: Nash---RIchards-----Gabo--Oh wait, nevermind...Gaborik sucks lol.

Rangers fans have to be feeling pretty good after this deal. You didn't lose too much and you got that offensive presence you were so dearly missing this season. I'm sure when I get back on campus this fall the same Rangers fans that were talking shit to me pre-playoffs this past season will be right back at it. Unfortunately the past semester ended before the Devils sent the Rangers from the playoffs to Golf Pro stores so I couldn't dish it back.

Oh and we'll be just fine, Phil. Scott Stevens is now on our coaching staff so he'll be shaping up our defenseman to make hits like this:

Finally, some comeback magic for the Phillies. In other news, a little over 48 hours until Shea Weber becomes a Philadelphia Flyer.

Not a problem. Once the lockout starts and Nashville goes bankrupt for owing so much dead money to Weber, they'll regret it. In the meantime, the Flyers have a lot of cap space to play with i.e. make a trade for Bobby Ryan. :yep:

Carolina signed former Washington Capital Alexander Semin to a one-year deal.

Sums up my thoughts. I wouldn't have minded the Flyers taking a chance on him, but only for around 4-5 million.
