They're getting Briere under contract for 5 more years, Hartnell for 3 more years, a really good young player in JVR and a 1st round pick to boot.

 

 

If this is the deal, Philly got taken. I hope they flame out in the 1st round of the playoffs...IF THEY MAKE THE PLAYOFFS! :D

confirmed where?

Agreed... You'd think that would be 3 inch headlines on TSN and it aint to be found..

At least a guy with a twitter account is something...

 

But anyway, the Devils just sound like a weird system for Kovy to end up in.

Fox Sports Net, Darren Dreger and Kevin Allen all confirmed it. Kovy is a Devil.

 

Oduya is part of the deal going to Atlanta, according to Friedman.

 

According to a NJ reporter, he believes the deal is- Bergfors, Oduya, a prospect and pick

sportsnet.ca has it up.

 

so i'm a believer.

 

Bergfors, Oduya, Prospect, and Pick sounds like a pretty light price, of course he is just a rental at this point.

That is less than I would have expected him to go for, even as a rental.

 

Waddell must be fun to have around at a poker game. Don walks in the door, you can hear someone yelling from the back "OK fellas, pot's here." :beer:

Looks like Tedenby is the prospect and the pick is obviously 1st round.

 

I don't see any way NJ Devils can re-sign him though so i do think it's only a rental.

How do we know he doesn't fit into a NJ system? All he's ever played for is Atlanta and they've never been good. Kovy plays an offense first game because there's no point to play defensively in Atlanta. I'm interested to see how this works out.

How does this guy fit into NJ system I don't get it.

 

Well, the Devil's were willing to part with their Swedish/Kenyan D man.

 

I wonder how the Swedish/Kenyan community will react in Atlanta?

That should move some Seas. Tix. :lol:
