2013 New Jersey Devils (Team News, Player Discussion - Part VI)

[JMarce]

@TSNBobMcKenszie Hearing rumors of Alexei Ponikarovsky's trade out of WPG. NJD perhaps? Checking.

Poni!

 

[Unknown Caller]

Classic

 

[SKNJD9]

Poni is coming back that's hilarious

 

[hlaverty06]

If it were a Darche signing we would've had clues, it wouldn't be this random

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

that also probably means Zubrus is out awhile if it is true.

 

[Devil X]

Really bad. No way this is good news. Too sudden.

Dont agree with the too sudden part. Fact is today they got a better idea about Zubrus once Lou knew he might have started working the phones to pull something off just took all day.

 

[hlaverty06]

Poni-Josefson-Matteau as 3rd line then CBGB's?

 

[Jack Griffin]

If it was Poni I feel like that wouldn't be big enough to have a conference call about

 

[rrekaj13]

Just wondering if it's a great idea to bring back a guy that walked away just a few months ago...

 

[Devil X]

OH DEAR LORD if that last tweet is true this board will go crazy!

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Lou was busy with other guys.

Don't see the correlation. We needed a forward with or without Zubrus. Poni isn't a replacement, IMO.

 

[Devils Trap]

Poni isnt big enough for a news conference

Why not? He only left cause Parise was a priority. We couldn't afford to give him anything until we knew Zach would leave or not. Then there was Brodeur too.

 

[OOOOIIIO]

Poni isnt big enough for a news conference

Poni, ROR, Perry, Zubrus out, Clarkson extension all wrapped into 1 conference?

 

[apice3*]

I would rather give up a late pick for Poni at 1.8M than sign him for 3M, regardless.

 

[Classic Devil]

I wonder how often a player gets traded to the same team two years in a row.

 

[Mgd31]

Why would there be a conference for this? Unless a bigger deal?

 

[Devilsfan92]

I'm so excited right now.

 

[Devils Trap]

The Poni trade may be true, but the conference will be about something else

 

[hlaverty06]

Marty signed to a 7 year extension

 

[Devil X]

Personally if it is Poni i dont like it. We got Poni last year to be a bottom 6 player he did well in that spot. This year he would come in and take Zubrus spot and be expected to be a top 6 player which he isnt. Guess we will find out soon.

 

[KovalSNIPE]

Evander Kane?!? One can only hope!

 

[Devils Trap]

Personally if it is Poni i dont like it. We got Poni last year to be a bottom 6 player he did well in that spot. This year he would come in and take Zubrus spot and be expected to be a top 6 player which he isnt. Guess we will find out soon.

Again, why do you need a news conference for Poni ???

Im soo excited

Damn it. I have work to finish before 9:00!
