Yayyyyy!

 

[3rd Sedin]

Wow that sure changed course.

It felt wrong seeing Malkin potentially ending his career anywhere but Steeltown

 

[vyktor]

Score!!!

 

[Drumman44]

Chicago fan coming in peace. Great to see. Would be wrong for him to wear another sweater.

Well, that was entirely too much drama. Glad they found common ground on 4x6.1. I want to know the details of when that was actually offered. But I don't really care. Welcome back G.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Sid saved us as @ColePens predicted.

 

[wheelz87]

lets ******* gooooooooo!!!

 

[Beauner]

I AM SO f***ING HAPPY

 

[Turin]

Thank God.

Was going to be straight up wrong seeing him anywhere else.

And there’s room for a free agent tomorrow.

Had to have been structure-related. That's the only thing that could've held it up.

This is the same (6.1x4) offer Seravalli and DeFabo reported a bit before Geno's camp said they're going to cut off negotiations and head to FA.

I imagine the deal's way more frontloaded now than the one offered yesterday.

so many of you, SO many of you need to go f***ing touch grass, and on the way, seek therapy.

Sid saved us as @ColePens predicted.

Dude come on. I deserve some love on that. I'll be honest.. i started to doubt myself, but the story was written.

@Zirakzigil - you owe me $5.

 

[Pittsburgh1776]

so many of you, SO many of you need to go f***ing touch grass, and on the way, seek therapy.

I won't apologize for being on pins and needles about a franchise legend walking away with 12 hours to go.

Great day for Pittsburgh!

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Saint Sid

 

[TooManyHumans]

Not surprised. Never understand all the drama over contract negotiations.

 

[Genetic]

Oh captain my captain

Now let's see trochek and lindholm sign tomorrow.

 

[Pancakes]

Awesome. Really didnt want to see him play elsewhere. This is where he belongs.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Our future GM!
