saintnick76 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Not worth 6.5 but for 4mill -I'd think NY would eat 2.5 to clear him from the books....................I can think of at least one Dman I'd feel happy Wade replacing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gizmo2337 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 He'd be a quality signing at league minimum ..for the farm team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaku Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 This is an obvious statement but Redden is a overpaid plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkeeterHansen Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Replace a (debatably) overpaid defenceman with some flashes of brilliance (and a hip check to die for) for an overpaid defenceman with nothing to offer. Smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Doughty Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Lets pick up Scott Gomez while we're at it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamero89 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 He's not going anywhere. NY will just buy him out at end of season. Don't be surprised if they do the same thing Montreal did with Gomez. Can only buy him out if he is healthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theo5789 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Once Redden is bought out, I wouldn't mind giving him a tryout to see what he's got back in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua59 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 He didn't even help the AHL team he was playing on. For quite some time now. So why would the Canucks want to take development space up on their farm team? This guy has nothing left to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintnick76 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 I love the posts that call it ridiculous or call people out especially when coming from people who have been members for a year or two and have 2K in posts (K is a thousand which you'll learn one day). Likely still have mom folding laundry for you. It was a simple what if......what if Redden who has been mailing it in from the Junior affiliate cause he feels he's put in his time there already got a legit chance one last time..........Our GM has shown he loves reclamation projects - cheap and if pays off......golden. I'd take Gomez for our third line at under 2 mill, he's only 33.......he'd be better than Arnott. (1261 posts in 11 months = greater than 3.5 posts per day as an average..........how do you find the time between asking mom for a grilled cheese and asking dad for his car) Ballard does what two or three monster hip checks a year, the rest of the time V can't take his game on the ice and only gets more when theres an injury (also 3.5 posts per day average). Dont even get me started on the 10K in posts since 07..........dude, read a book or something instead of making those smancy sigs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Clearly Redden would prefer the life of an AHL player, travelling on a bus and playing in conditions (locker rooms, training facilities, medical staff) not as nice as the NHL. Mailing it in because he's put in his time so he could get picked up a few years later as a reclamation project? If you spent less time getting offended by responses and overthinking things that people have already talked about and dismissed as unlikely, and more time looking at where your posting (you'd originally posted in the Trades, Rumours or Signings forum, now it's in the appropriate proposals forum) and reading the discussions others are already having in other threads (like the/topic/338189-scott-gomez-done-in-montreal/"> Scott Gomez thread), you'd find your time here much more enjoyable.

saintnick76 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 And the NHL & PA have made a hurry up call................Redden and Gomez expected to be bought out and UFA Now I have to pay attention to their stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
