[Hunter Gathers]

lol Poo. Cashed in. Good for him.

 

[Machinehead]

I liked Poo but you can't blame Sather for not meddling with that.

It's official. The Leafs have signed Dan Boyle to a 2 year, $9 million contract. #TSN #FAF #NHL

No Boyle for the Rangers

 

[Gardner McKay]

Looks like the Rangers are going to be filling a lot of spots from within

I think the it was just an early rush out of the gate. There are still plenty of FA's out there. We will make some signings.

 

[Nash Money]

Wow, rough first 10 min. Losing Poo, out on Stralman, and seeing CE go to PIT for only 1 yr $4m?!?! We couldn't have offered that? Ugh.

 

[Net Front Presence]

5 years/20 million for Pouliot? What an absolute joke.

 

[AlternateSideParking]

Pouliot was the 9th forward.

4 million for a 9th forward.

 

[Ail]

no boyle for the rangers

yes
yes
yes
yes
yes!

 

[CDiablo]

How the f are the Rangers going to afford anyone if Puliot can get 5x4.

 

[Wolfy*]

I don't understand this Ehrhoff talk, then it would be better to re-sign Stralman.

Looks like they'll let him walk btw...

We could have. You would be assuming that we have the advantage over every team in terms of desirability. Maybe Ehrhoff wanted to go to Pitt. Maybe we offered him 4.5 a year and he still went to Pitt. You just don't know.

That's a fake account. No 'J' in McKenzie

 

[Cmox]

lol Poo. Cashed in. Good for him.

He'll be bought out in like 3 yrs, hahah

 

[ecemleafs]

[AlternateSideParking]

No Boyle for the Rangers

Dumb move for a team terrible on defense.

Canadian GMs have had a terrible week.

 

[FJB]

Thank you, Toronto! Now, please... I hope JovoCop is retiring after his buyout.

Brian Boyle also has at least one five-year offer, we're told...

 

[Ail]

****ing fake accounts. haha

 

[SA16]

why do we have two threads running now?

 

[Sky Valley]

rather gamble on the next scrap heap stralman/pouliot type than throw around that kind of money. doesn't mean it'll work necessarily, but it's smarter than 5/20 for benoit dang pouliot.

 

[Kokoschka]

I liked Poo. But lol at that term. Also, D.Boyle is gone. Good. Good.

 

[nevesis]

No Boyle for the Rangers

Very true. Though we beat them last year so we're def the more desirable option, right?
