NHL Hot Stove Thread

and getting shown the door.
And the bloodletting continues...
Niemie had a great playoffs...and thats about all. He is not a proven performer, even though this was his first shot at the NHL. I kind of understand the perspective...but I have always seen Turco as a choke artist. Bowman is continuing to clean up someone elses mess. Next year will be interessant...I wonder where Anti will land?

Ken Dryden performed a similiar feat. I hear he has done well for himself. Nik Khabibulin also, and he flopped as a Hawk soon thereafter. Hawk fans are screaming, but the option was sign a relatively unproven goalie to a long term when you still have the albatross of another long term deal between the pipes riding the pine. Turco may prove a good mentor to Crawfish...and methinks Huet is not long for the Indian Head sweater...
I think I missed the Niemi/Turco news while on vacation........Holy Moly!
I wonder who will snag Niemi for next season?? Maybe he'll land in Montreal!

Yeah no chance at all! Already trying to sort out the Price situation with his new contract although he has proven nothing.
Crazy thing that the NHL has finally put their pants on to cancel Kovy's contract. No Dipietro fiasco again please, that was ridiculous

Who the hell will be the other goalie in Montreal?
Edit - Alex Auld. UGH.

I think Niemi will go back to Europe...it will be an interesting year in Chicago.
Europe or KHL?
I'm looking forward to seeing what Turco comes up with in terms of mask and pads for the Blackhawks.
Finnish Elite Serien methinks...a total SWAG, btw.
Turco will (Hopefully...) be a good mentor for Crawford, who I beleive has been annointed to be the netminder o' the future for my boys.

Price really needed out of there...he is on the X bigger then ****.
The Flyers may still have Carcillo, but the Pens now have Asham. I still hate him.

We have added Fernando Pisani...good pick up of a depth/character guy for not so much $$. I think the UC crowd will love him...
until he beats carcillo's ass....then you will hate him a little less.
If Avery beat Carsillies ass, I would like Avery. For a very short time, but I would like Avery.
But to be truthful, I would like to see a double knockout in a scrap like that.

You think he could take Carcillo? Asham thinks he's a goal scorer anyway.
Carcillo is got the crazy factor along with the stache and flowing locks... simply unbeatable.
Carcillo is a lightweight who runs his cake hole too much. Best comment of the Cup Final was when Carcillo was running around trying to decapitate Hawks and drilled Briere. Burish (Another clown, fwiw...) says "Thats the best hit you've thrown all year!" Carcillo was pissed...but thats the last ice he saw all series.
The NHL could use a few less Carcillo-type guys IMHO.
Yep...
san jose.
another former flyer you can hate.
Camps start this weekend right!?
Rumor has it Mario is going to play tonight. 
pure speculation... but why would the pens send Tangradi to the Wheeling team for tonights game, and call up a fourth string goalie to take his place?...
I think they are going to dress 66 for the opening of the new building... God its great that hockey season is finally here!

and bobby clarke will send carcillo out to greet him....Rumor has it Mario is going to play tonight.
I get it...he owns the team, he saved the team, blagh blagh blagh. The Pens have a Stanley Cup caliber team, and arguably the best player in the NHL. Wish "Super Mario" would not make it about himself. Go eat a Primanti Brothers sandwich, sit in your box, and wave to the crowd.
He's going to be the replacement for Sergei Gonchar on the Point for the Pens PowerPlay this year.
I'd argue with that and where do you think Sydney learned to make it about himself?
Shut up you guys...take it to the NHL 2010-11 rregular season thread...
