Samsonsov's gonna have to come back to Boston in the most hated uniform to a Bruins fan.
However, i think he'll be welcomed nicely. Couldn't picture anything Damon-esque happening

We're talking about Bruins fans, not Red Sox fans... and it's not exactly like Samsonov did anything Damon-esque by leaving his team for more money. Samsonov was TRADED away. If anything, Bruins fans should be booing their front office (although it's nice to see them get off their asses and sign Chara and a guy I really like in Marc Savard) not Samsonov...

Over 4 would definitely be too much... he'd immediately be the second highest paid player on the team (possibly higher) which would be way too much for a guy that hasn't had a 70+ point season in over 5 years... although Kovalev hasn't had a 70+ point season in 5 years either, and many of the other high paid player on the team are overpaid too. It may just be a habit for the Canadiens front office to overpay  |

It may just be a habit for the Canadiens front office to overpay wohhhh ... we have a very cheap team compare to others.. we have 20 players signed and just 34M$ used. tsn.ca/nhl/in the right column you can see the team salaries... check out boston or vancouver... ouch ! |

I know you guys aren't in the same layer of hell as those teams (and Philly definitely has to be somewhere there)... I'm just saying that the majority of high-paid players you have aren't that valuable, haven't reached potential, etc.. That's not neccesarily a bad thing either, because the guys you have cheap are pretty much a strong core of your team.
But yeah, now that I look at it, your nowhere near the worst. Just thought I'd point out how much Buffalo paid in total this past season and look where it got them. Although I can't find an exact number, I'm almost positive we were at the $35M range. To compare, a team like oh say, the Senators, who the Sabres eliminated had about $10M more than us... of course, this is all to my estimation. Is there any place that you guys know of that shows salaries from this past season?

21 is a good number, but my number is the best, 0. I tried to get 00 but couldn't. Bernie Parent wore that once in another league. I wanted 1, but someone got to it before me. I sport #4 After all, my last name is Orr.... Edit:Freak, what team do u play on?? *wondering if i've played your organization* I from now on always wear #10... for Pavel Bure and Marian Gaborik..I have the past season and next season I will and It was also my first ever hockey number. |

I doubt we ever played because right now I am only involved in in-house leagues. |

OIC, I always wanted to have an inline team but they dont have even 1 rink/complex in VT. I always see the teams in USA Hockey magazine and stuff, and it looks like fun

I love it because you get to be outside and play hockey. Not only that, but there is a lot less pads to wear. I can basically go helmet, shins, and gloves and I am good. |

Good news for Buffalo today. Biron resigned for another year, which should give us enough time to determine if Ryan Miller requires an excellent backup, or if we can manage to win games with a half-decent one. He's good trade bait, as teams are always dying to get a good goalie down the stretch as well...

Well, it went kind of both ways. I thought about you after I posted it, and it worked out.
