berdusco Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 geez i dont want koivu to leave the habs i saw somewhere (might've been here actually) that the habs were interestested in signing lecavlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayrider Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 Apparently Koivu isnt what he is made out to be. I hear he's always in arguments with Julien, refusing to follow some of his playmaking decisions, not the greatest of leaders etc... I could care less, Koivu is a good player, but he's no where near as good as Lecavalier. And these are all rumors anyways, so it should be taken with a grain of salt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Iginla, but I don't think anyone deserves the $7mil/year. That's just me, though... I guess if I were going to pick a few players around the league to give that kind of money to he'd be one of them, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayepecks Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Kind of sad to see him go (from Detroit), but at the same time he made a lot of lapses in his defense. Good luck to him, though!

bayrider Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 well he's playing in Montreal where he;s always wanted to (not to sound too much like a leafs fan lol) but he's a welcomed addition and he sure will have a lot of support here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 (edited) Islanders sign Satan, deal Peca BY ALAN HAHN STAFF WRITER August 3, 2005, 5:58 PM EDT The Islanders on Wednesday signed free agent sniper Miroslav Satan, finally adding the high-scoring veteran winger the team has been missing to play next to center Alexei Yashin. The Islanders followed the signing by trading captain Michael Peca to the Edmonton Oilers for forward Mike York and a conditional draft pick. The trade saves the Islanders $2,166,000 in cap money. Satan, 30, spent the past eight seasons with the Buffalo Sabres, where he was a consistent 25-to-30 goal scorer. His best season came in 1998-99, when he had 40 goals and 66 points. The Sabres reached the Stanley Cup Finals that season. In 704 NHL games, Satan has 259 goals and 519 points. Since 1997-98, he has never played fewer than 79 games per season. The Sabres decided not to make a $3.8 million qualifying offer to Satan last week, so he became an unrestricted free agent. The Islanders tried to acquire Satan before the March 2004 trade deadline, but could no complete a deal. Satan joins former Sabres teammate Alexei Zhitnik, who signed with the Islanders on Tuesday. The Islanders added another defenseman, Brent Sopel, in a trade with the Vancouver Canucks earlier on Wednesday. http://www.newsday.com/sports/hockey/islan...ports-headlines I <3 Peca... :cry: Edited August 3, 2005 by Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hills420 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I'm surprised the Thrashers have only taken Holik, they are well under the Salary cap with plenty of room to acquire a few great players. I'm pulling for Modano. I'd like to pick up Andrew Cassells, Ray Whitney and Pierre Turgeon too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
