Honestly...I'm not that thrilled with the Brodeur rumors. I feel like that money can be better spent. Obviously Brodeur isn't what he used to but he has had injuries and struggles over the past couple of seasons.

Exactly how I feel about it. Spend the money on a good D-man and Crawford is fine. Maybe that's too hard for Bowman to figure out?

Still a whole lot of time and players out there. I don't get some people getting so pissed off and freaking out.

Believe it or not, teams don't have only July 1st to sign someone.

Hopefully Bowman can fill some holes this offseason, if not then the grilling will be warranted.

The thing I'm most upset about is the players that I wanted got signed by other teams. And me being an idiot has no idea who else is out there that is good to fill the holes the Hawks have.

A Suter or Parise signing would be huge though. And that's not gonna happen until tomorrow.

I'm okay with Carle.

I need some clarification here: Is the Brookbank kid 2.5 million TOTAL cap hit for two years, or is he 2.5 per year?

If it's the latter, I'm going to shit my right kidney.

**** my ass and call me a *****. REALLY? A third of our cap space on a spare ass defender who we could have replicated for 800 grand a year? Smooth move Bowman.

You know, seriously, that guy is a complete dipshit. Complete.

Carle is the guy I wanted all along. Would like to see that happen.

Carle or Salvador. Get one of those two and I'll believe that Bowman wants to actually win something this year.

great news. :rolleyes:

Well duh, they want to save the news of signing Parise, Suter, and Brodeur while trading Montador for picks for tomorrow.

Bet Detroit gets both of the big two actually.

I'm going to look at it on the bright side and hope he's working the phones instead of addressing the media.

Of course I'm an idiot, but that's gonna be my hope...

Things are still going to happen tomorrow. Most of the bigger name D guys aren't going to sign until Suter does according to Bob Mac.

Calm it down. But yeah, today was disappointing.

Atleast we filled a need...we needed a depth defenseman

Let's just hope that he's better than the depth defensemen that were signed last year.
