Rumor: All Encompassing Jimmy Vesey Thread. All Rumors/News goes here. Part V

[LiveLongandProspal]

Too bad Mike Richards isn't in the league anymore.

"Jimmy's gonna get you, Kramer!"

Dammit! Beat me to it

Worth what risk? He had no intentions of signing and threw away a 3rd for nothing. Good to see sabres fans don't care about throwing away draft picks.

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. I am not a Sabres fan but I would be fine with my team trading a 3rd to try and get Vesey even if he didn't sign.

You only score on shots that you take.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

I heard from a good source that he actually hates being called "Jimmy" and prefers to be called "James".

Still have a strong feeling that when all is said and done, That he signs with the Hometown Boston Bruins. Just have that feeling.

Just makes too much sense

I agree. That's what I would do if I were him.

The Bruins need him also. They are half way between rebuild and competing. He helps the process for Boston.

Hopefully Scottie Upshall and Dougie Hamilton go the same route and ask to be called Scott and Doug

It's like, come on Jim, you're an adult now. Jimmy is for 13 year olds

Tim Murray and Jimmy Vesey.

Someone needs to photoshop their faces on Timmy+Jimmy from South Park

But shot selection is important as well.

Jimmy is good for hockey... but if he were to become a doctor or something, then he could go with James.

Dr. James Vesey sounds good.....

but during games, JIMMMMYYYYYYYYYY VEEEESSSSSEEEEEEEEEEYYYY sounds unreal

 

[MinnyTeddy]

Or Pittsburgh- chance to win a cup while playing on a line with the best player in the world....not to mention a much lower cost of living than NY, Boston, Chi.

The two best players in the world are Kane and Toews and play in Chicago. The Pittsburgh run this year was a benefit of weak teams advancing. I dont think theres ever been a team like Pitt with basically 2 players winning it all in the history of the game

Hahaa.

This saga needs to end. Really.

It'll be over soon, and then we can move on to the WCH.

Sarcasm? I really hope this is sarcasm. Because this entire post is way too wrong to be even remotely serious.

I mean the guy did go to Harvard. Dr. Jimmy Vesey just sounds like a guy I wouldn't trust as my doctor. Now as my team's 2nd line winger, absolutely

Boston is a good fit and if its always been his #1 choice I don't see why he's wasting the time of other teams. Hearing everyone's pitch has some merit but its an ELC and the money is going to be the same regardless so just sign with Boston already. Teams can say you'll be playing with this guy getting x amounts of minutes but if he doesn't produce then he's the same as every other young player/prospect on the roster. Whether its intended or not he's coming off as a primadonna.

This statement couldn't be any more wrong.

 

[HarrisonFord]

Sid, Geno
Kopitar, Doughty
Seguin, Benn
Ovie, Backstrom

That's 4 better ones right there in the NHL right now

BWAHAHAHAHAHA

This is such an unbelievably ridiculous post, I can't even begin to fathom the drugs you were on when you wrote it. I want some, though.

Not to mention all the others that had monster playoffs for the Pens:
Kessel, Hagelin, Bonino, Murray, Cullen, Hornqvist. All of the d were basically flawless.

how does Pitt have "only 2 players"?

Crosby
Malkin
Kessel
Letang
Hornqvist
Bonino
Hagelin

etc etc

I agree.

It shows the effect of the stagnant cap, though, when a player like John Tavares is sent to sell his team to Vesey.

 

[Empoleon8771]

The big thing that confuses me with that post is that the Pens "only have 2 players", as if the Pens don't have a fringe top-5 defenseman and a top-5 RWer in the NHL. Did he just forget about the Pens adding Kessel or something? You know, the dude that was arguably the best RWer in hockey for like 3 seasons?
