korab rules Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 Holy crap! Anaheim has the ugliest 3rd jerseys I have ever seen! They make nashvilles old cat poop yellow ones look good!
Two or less Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 About $450,000 to sign him. Hello DR? Looks like NJD will sign him. Wait 7 days, and release him. If Nabby re-hits waivers, Detroit (original team who signed him) gets first priority. Not sure whats in it for NJD but we'll find out later on, prolly draft time, but Nabby will be a Red Wing within 8 days.

Then again, from now on, the worst team in the league is always going to know they can hold any team hostage in a situation like this.

bunomatic Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Brett Favre Peter Forsberg making a comeback? http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news?slug=ap-avalanche-forsberg Not this again. Suppose Philly will make a play for him if colorado doesn't sign him.
SwampD Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Brett Favre Peter Forsberg making a comeback? http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news?slug=ap-avalanche-forsberg Good! Maybe they'll start making his curve again. Haven't found one I've liked as much since he left. Zetterberg's close (it's probably exactly the same), but just doesn't feel right.

darksabre Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Nabokov claimed by the Islanders. What a twist!
rbochan Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 So we'll be seeing Nabby tomorrow? These pusses can't even score on rookie goalies. :death:
spndnchz Posted January 22, 2011 Author Report Posted January 22, 2011 So we'll be seeing Nabby tomorrow? These pusses can't even score on rookie goalies. :death: Word is he's not going to report to the Islanders.
spndnchz Posted January 22, 2011 Author Report Posted January 22, 2011 If he doesn't show, the Islanders can suspend him. This would make him ineligible to play this year in the NHL. if they don't suspend him, but put him on waivers, he can't play in the AHL because it's after the "new signing Dec 15th deadline". He could get picked up by some other NHL team.

deluca67 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 What a twist! Don't use his name or you might get sued.
spndnchz Posted January 22, 2011 Author Report Posted January 22, 2011 Can they trade him to the Wings? I've heard no. Because of the Dec 15th deadline too. Correction: He would need to be waived, clear waivers and then brought back up on re-entry, clear, then could be traded. jeez.
spndnchz Posted January 22, 2011 Author Report Posted January 22, 2011 In other news... Mair playing on a line with Kovy.
deluca67 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 In other news... Mair playing on a line with Kovy. The Devils have won 5 out of six including some quality wins. 2 against the Lightning, 1 each against the Pens and Caps and one against the Sabres arch-nemesis the New York Islanders.
Lanny Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 If he doesn't show, the Islanders can suspend him. This would make him ineligible to play this year in the NHL. if they don't suspend him, but put him on waivers, he can't play in the AHL because it's after the "new signing Dec 15th deadline". He could get picked up by some other NHL team. He has a NMC, so he can't be sent down without his permission, and as with any player he'd have to clear waivers. Also, regarding a trade: In order to trade Nabokov, here is what would have to happen (put on your thinking cap, because this is going to get complicated): The Islanders would inform the league they intend to trade Nabokov. Before any trade could be executed, though, the NHL would go to any other club(s) that put in an original waiver claim (besides the Isles) and ask whether those teams have interest in acquiring Nabokov for the $3,375 waiver price. If an original claimant wants Nabokov, they get him. If more than one original claimant wants him, the team lowest in the standings on the day he was put on waivers gets the player. Nabokov never actually gets put on waivers a second time in this scenario. So in that case the Isles cannot execute the trade. Original waivers claimants take precedence over the Islanders' desire to trade him. If the Isles were the only team that put in a claim, the Isles still are not free to trade Nabokov. Not yet. That's because as a player who played in Europe after the NHL season began, Nabokov must clear waivers any time he is being traded or assigned. In that case, any of the 29 teams, including Detroit, can put in a claim on Nabokov. If more than one team puts in a claim, the team lowest in the standings gets him. In this actual (second) waiver scenario, there is no priority given to a team that originally claimed Nabokov the first time he was on waivers. What would seem obvious is that were Nabokov to be put on waivers a second time, Detroit would most certainly put in a claim. So the odds of Nabokov ever clearing waivers for the purposes of being traded by the Isles would appear to be virtually non-existent. If all that isn't confusing enough, keep in mind Nabokov has a no movement clause. He can't be put on waivers or traded without his permission. http://www.tsn.ca/columnists/bob_mckenzie/?id=350647

Stoner Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 This is an aggressive type move I would have liked to see the Sabres make if given the chance. Did you ever think the fact Regier won't make an aggressive move, ever, is one reason the rest of the league "respects" him so much? If I'm Terry Pegula, I want my GM to be disrespected, hated, envied and made a pariah of.
inkman Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 In other news... Mair playing on a line with Kovy. If the devils are lucky Mair will run him through the boards.
SwampD Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 If NBC is trying to further the popularity of the NHL (and I'm sure they are because they will soon be taking over Versus), then WTF are they doing putting Mike Milbury on their intermission show? Not only does he look like Fred Flintstone, but I think he's actually more of a caveman than him.
Weave Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 If NBC is trying to further the popularity of the NHL (and I'm sure they are because they will soon be taking over Versus), then WTF are they doing putting Mike Milbury on their intermission show? Not only does he look like Fred Flintstone, but I think he's actually more of a caveman than him. Cavemen the world over are insulted. Milbury is a characiture of Don Cherry and Don Cherry is an assclown. Milbury looks sad and pathetic on that intermission show. His personality needs to be put to pasture before more potential fans are turned away by his absurdity.
