Player needs 7 accrued seasons (or 3 if he is 27 already) to hit UFA:

"Accrued Season" means any League Year during which a Player was on a Club's Active Roster for 40 (30 if the Player is a goalie) or more Regular Season Games,

On the roster, not necessarily playing. So Matteau is up at 13 now. The number is probably 20-24 for a shortened season.

Just saw a video of the Devils talking about Valentine's day and Clarkson mentioned his wife and daughter. That reminded me of the TMZ video after the Stanley Cup game of him trying to lure those girls into a van. lol oops

You made that sound way creepier than it was.

I love Kovalchuk's laugh after they ask him what his favorite part is.

Change that to "WOMEN", man. Oh and you can also change that whole sentence to clarky attempting to pick up women.

Like NBCHockey said, you made this sound creepier than it actually was.



And anyway, those "women" were far from "innocent" if I had to major a guess. :rolleyes:

Too bad.

I honestly thought he would've been a solid soldier for our 4th line/13th forward come playoff time. He had a important part in the CBA talks and now he's left whitout a job.

Hope someone picks him up sooner rather then later. Bob Hartley should've called Darche instead of Steve Begin but what do you want to do.

Good luck to a class act individual ;)

put Matteau back in there and take out Loktionov, then shake.

What comes out?

1) Elias-Henrique-Kovalchuk (scoring)
2) Ponikarovsky-Zajac-Clarkson (forecheck and cycling monster)
3) Matteau-Josefson-Butler (grinder)
4) Carter-Gionta-Bernier (all the above)

I really like these lines. Toughness and skill everywhere, and in theory they are all solid both offensively and defensively.

But when Zubrus is back, who comes out?

I love Kovalchuk's laugh after they ask him what his favorite part is.

None of them can give their actual answer, which would have to be censored. :laugh:

Zubrus in for Josefson.

Butler-Zajac-Kovy
Elias-Henrique-Clarkson
Matteau-Zubrus-Ponikarovsky

I'm now at the point where I think Deboer will literally just pull names out of a hat to figure out the line-up. We have too many pieces (aside from the one we still lack in a 1LW) that it's pretty difficult NOT to screw up the lines. So many combinations look great on paper.

Elias-Henrique-Kovalchuk could be a monstrous line.. not sure if I can remember Elias and Kovy ever playing together for an extended period though.

Rather have Josefson is the line-up than Matteau and that's not even close. Especially considering you're going to have Zubrus taking faceoffs when Josefson is a natural center.

I think Zubrus is our second best faceoff guy, honestly. He gets tossed out a ton though.

So i was just startign to watch the It's Devils Hockey show http://video.devils.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=745&id=201601&cmpid=embed-share-video and I couldn't believe the song they started with. A few years ago i was asking if anyone had heard it or had it, and voila, there it is.

Hey you devils, play you devils, show'em that they met the best....Catch fire!!
That was the WABC 770 intro song back in the early 90's with Chris Moore. Except the WABC version was much better and less cheesy.
