MNPackfan32 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Hands tied in FA for the Wild and we all know why... Let's see what happens with Zucker/Dumba and what gets done on the trade market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RpMc Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I like the Peteryn add. Hopefully he and Seeler can give us a better bottom pair than we’ve had in recent years. Both are willing to be physical and clear the crease. Its nice to sign fourth line players to fourth line deals (unlike the Foligno contract). Fehr, Hendricks, Brown all can handle fourth line duty or be an extra forward and not need to play every game. Still need to make a shake up move via trade, start slotting Koivu in as a third liner, and pray Suter can play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) FWIW, JT Brown is former Vikings' RB Ted Brown's son. Edited July 2, 2018 by disaacs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcblack34 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Blow it all up. Trade them all and build for the last year of Lebron's contract. On another note, I'm done with the NBA. Golden State could conceivably go undefeated and, barring injury, walk through the playoffs to sweep the Eastern Conference winner. What's the point? They need to break up the super teams.

They need to break up the super teams. I do agree to a certain point. And it's a tremendous failure of the Commissioner's Office, dating back to Stern. He set up the league to eventually go this way with the marketing of individual players rather than the franchises, although it's taken a lot longer to get to this point than even I expected. They may as well do away with the individual location of franchises and set up sponsored franchises (with naming rights sold off to the highest bidder), because the location of the teams has become irrelevant.

JDBrocks Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Golden state will not go undefeated. They added Cousins, who will likely be a shell of himself and might not be ready until January. Let’s not get carried away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RpMc Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) The NBA has always been monopolized by one or two teams. Out of the 72 years it’s been in existence, 5 teams have won 50 of the championships. The Celtics, Lakers, Bulls, Warriors, and Spurs. It’s a joke of a league because of the draft lottery, and soft cap. Edited July 4, 2018 by rpmwr19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think they need to implement 2 franchise tags so players can stop forcing their way out, it'd be nice to actually see what teams can do knowing they have their best 2 players locked in as long as they wanted them to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
