Florida trades for Kris Versteeg. 2nd and 3rd round pick to Philly.

I think y'all overpaid for Goc. And Caps definitely overpaid for Ward. Most frustrating player I've ever seen.
ETA: I wish the Preds would do something. Like get Radulov back...

Florida loves to over spend for above average players.
6-years, $27 million for Ville Leino to Sabres.

I'm gonna guess that Stevie Y's meeting with Richards was primarily for show. He wants to show Stamkos that he is prepared to move on without him, when in reality the priority is to extend Stamkos forever.
The Philly thing is interesting. By failing to re-sign Leino AND trading Versteeg, that opens up some space. Does this mean they could become a player for Richards?! I hope my math is wrong.
Lastly, as a Bruins fan, I really hope the Flyers or someone else doesn't put out a ridiculous offer sheet for Marchand. The rumor last week was that the deal was done, but that obviously didn't happen. Now, we might have to give Marchand Leino money which would be necessary but as he's a really good young player. The interesting thing about Marchand is that Boston management literally had to tell him to get the hell out of Boston and go back to Halifax, because he was partying too hard. He's not only a pain in the arse to the opposition, he's a pain in the arse to his own franchise.
The contracts being throw out today are all out of whack and this is clearly a bubble. But, there are gonna be enough losers that things won't really normalize until probably about 2013. It'll still be a seller's market at the trade deadline and the 2012 FA class is once again fairly weak.

I went to school with Brian Boyle, Andrew Alberts, Cory Schneider, Pat Eaves, Nathan Gerbe, Ryan Shannon, Stephen Gionta, Benn Ferrerrio, Ben Smith, plus Marty Reasoner's younger brother and Brooks Orpik's younger brother, but it's a little different because it was college haha.

Happy the Caps got Ward, one of the players I wanted. He was a warrior in the playoffs and is exactly the type of player they need. Hamrlik is a good signing as well, hopefully Schultz is on his way out. Ward was a bit overpaid, but everyone seems to be this year. I can't believe Flash got 4.5 per yr from Florida.

Still no sign as to where Richards is going...

Folks...indications suggest the Rangers are still the frontrunner, but make no mistake about it, the Calgary Flames are in the hunt.

CGY GM Jay Feaster's previous relationship with Brad Richards is a factor in Flames being in this to the point they are.
Still sounds like LA, Toronto, Calgary, and the Rangers are in the running...although people are saying the Rangers offer might be the lowest.
