Primal Optimist Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Totally KC and I was thinking Northern California too, I know San Jose is there, but Oakland? perhaps there is a market just north of Oakland for an Oakland team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Two of my prospects moved in the Seguin/Eriksson deal. Button to Dallas and Fraser to Boston. Good day for me in that sense as now both are closer to getting a look at the NHL level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good day for me in that sense as now both are closer to getting a look at the NHL level. I'm not going to lie. I'm ok with this deal too. Seguin may get a chance to be a centre now and I have faith in a Nill/Ruff combo to keep Dallas competitive. In this trade Joe Morrow moves again but this time to Boston where he and Dougie Hamilton look like the future on the PP for the Bruins. The Isles' fingerprints were all over this deal as recently traded Reilly Smith moves to Boston too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallstreetamigo Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Minnesota GM wallstreetamigo is very happy that the Canucks have chosen to buy out Keith Ballard in real life. "We are excited to see him get a chance to get his career on track next season wherever he lands as we know he is still a quality defenceman in the NHL. We know our Wild will be rewarded for our patience in bringing Keith home to Minnesota." It sounds like life could imitate fantasy as the rumor is that Ballard may end up in Minnesota in real life as well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arby18_ Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Report: The Arctic Ice Agency has decided to provide an update on the eve of Free Agency Frenzy on behalf of Corey Perry. A number close to one half-dozen (perhaps more, perhaps less...) have sent in significant offers for the all-star right winger, all of them in the 6-7 year range. On top of that, multiple offers have topped the "$8 million dollar" mark per season and even more include full No-Trade Clauses... While it may take a day or two to negotiate further with various teams and to find the proper fit, it is believed that any offers that are below the numbers above will have a hard time convincing our client to head in that direction. It is expected that Perry will make his decision by the end of the weekend FOR SURE... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Romo Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Evolution of the Carolina Hurricanes Roster when GM RR11 took over Loui Eriksson-Andy Mcdonald-Ilya Kovachuk Blake Wheeler-Mike Ribeiro-Kyle Brodziak Alex Ponikarovski-David Legwand-Travis Moen Cam Jansen-Dominic Moore-Byron Bitz Jay Bouwmeester-Joni Pitkanen Kris Russell-Chris Tanev Matt Carkner-? Thomas Vokoun Josh Harding Opening night roster 2012-13 Loui Eriksson-Mika Zibanajed-Nail Yakupov David Booth-Tom Wandell-Mark Stone Matt Dagostini-Dominic Moore-Matthew Darche Colton Gillies-Kyle Chipchura-Daniel Winnik Jeremy Colliton Kris Russell-Chris Tanev Anton Babchuk-Jeff Schultz Maxime Goncharov-Milan Jurcina Josh Harding Tomas Gress How we got there... What a difference a year made. From the start of the 2011-12 season to the start of the 2012-13 roster the Carolina Hurricanes went from a playoff contending team full of veterans to a lottery team full of rookies. When the new GM took over he looked over that veteran filled roster, and he believed that they would never win a Stanley cup with that roster. He wanted to do a total rebuild, but he had no draft picks. So he went looking for the picks but he couldn’t find them. No one had them, the picks were lost so Carolina got their picks back. So now Carolina could rebuild, GM RR11 traded almost everyone on that roster to start over in the off-season. The 2012 CDCGML entry draft was one of the most significant days in GM RR11 tenure. They got a franchise winger in Nail Yakupov with the 1st overall pick. They also got plenty of young talent, Derrick Pouliot, Tim Bozon, Dylan Blujus, Brian Cooper,and Mike Winther. Adding all that young talent was success in itself, but then in the middle of the draft Commissioner C2X stepped up to the podium to announce a trade. He got booed as usual then he announced that Ilya Kovalchuk has been traded. Carolina got back David Booth, Bonne Jenner, Daniel Winnik,Mark Stone and James Wright. The winner of that deal will not be established for a couple more years. It shocked everyone, Carolina now had one of the best pool of prospects but almost no one on their NHL roster. They had wholes everywhere on their roster. As free agency came apon Carolina tried to get many of the top FA, but they decided to sign elsewhere. So as opening day came Carolina had a very week roster, and they had a very slow start to the season. GM RR11 tried to make some moves but could not pull the trigger on anything. Then a couple days before the deadline he made some very bold moves. He traded two of his top prospects in Pouliot and Stone for PA Parenteau, and he traded some picks for Mika Kiprusoff. The kipper trade seems to have been a mistake right now as he is goanna retire but the Parenteau trade is looking amazing right now. Then on the trade deadline he traded LA 1st for Mike Fisher, and they traded for Ray Whitney, it is starting to look like Carolina is loading up for next season. They finished last overall by a mile but lost the draft lottery. That was not that big of a deal as they still got what they thought was the best prospect available in Nathan Mackinnon. Now they have an amazing mix of veterans and youngsters up front. With Parenteau, Eriksson, Fisher, Whitney, Booth as some great players in their prime and veterans. They also have an amazing young nucleolus in Mackinnon, Yakupov, Zibanejad and Jenner. Roster Now Loui Eriksson-Mike Fisher-PA Parenteau Ray Whitney-Nathan Mackinnon -Nail Yakupov David Booth-Mika Zibanejad-? Antoine Roussel-James Wright-Colby Armstrong Matt Dagostini-Colby Armstrong James Wisniewski-Trevor Daley Tom Gilbert-? Filip Kuba-Chris Tanev Andre Benoit Mika Kiprusoff Ben Scrivens Josh Harding What a difference a year makes, while the last two years have been painful, not many wins some terrible trades like trading Blake Wheeler for nothing and a lot of controversy. They had to deal with Josh Harding MS and the passing of Dominic Moores wife. I don’t think any franchise could have had a worse 2 years. But it seems to finally be looking up for this franchise.

That was fantastic, well worth reading! Thanks. While it is my policy to never comment on my opponents moves, I will say, looks like a storms a brewin in Carolina. Lol technically the wrong side of Florida, but you get the idea. EDIT: as for kipper, we all have made trades we regret in hindsight, but do we know Kipper is retiring this year?
