We need someone else who knows how to find the back of the net, i think he could have provided us with that.  We cant win a thing with one line doing all the work.

We made two deals to get that. Our offensive dealing is done.

Valeri Bure wasn't going to give us any of that. Kozlov's a much better talent for those purposes and I sure hope we get to see that real soon.

Then our chance at the cup is done.

I can't believe a Devils fan would say something like that. What does Lou have to do to prove himself to you? He sees what the need is and fills THAT hole. Not goes out and gets people just to get them.

You musta hated getting Grant Marshall, Pascal Rheaume and Richard Smehlik last year if you think we can't make a run by solidifying up the center position.

The talent on this team succeeds on heart, chemistry, playoff experience. We don't need someone without these things. Val was available last year... he went to the Blues... also a stacked team by some standards... they went out in the first round.

And you're also judging Hrdina and Kozlov based on one game between the two of them. I just don't understand how Valeri Bure could raise your spirits if Hrdina and Kozlov didn't.

OK, back into my hole cause you ain't gonna see my point and I'm never gonna see yours.

Okay, I didn't read all 7 pages of this thread, so I don't know all the Dev trade rumors, but I was disappointed when I logged on this morn, that nada, zip and zilch about a Dev trade. Come on Lou, do something.

I really can't stand the waiting. I think maybe I'll check back at 3:30 and see if there is rejoicing, tears or anger on the board.

And then there's the Flyer game tonight. LETS GO DEVILS!

It's too quite out there.

Lou better make a move.......

[JesterDevil]

Am I the only one that can forsee Hill going to Ottawa for a 3rd round pick?

[coldply123]

GET ME MY DEFENSEMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Devil Dog]

This could be similar to last year. No trade day moves. If Stevens has told Lou that he will be back before the end of the year Lou may not make any additional moves. Clemmensen has done a good job as back up and Lou may balk at paying too high a price for a backup goalie.

[CRASHER]

and the same crap happens ...every... single... year......

there's a reason EA Sports allows you to have trades in it

*almost glad I have too busy a day to hear the same crap as years past*

I WANT JASON SMITH....

Edm is now a seller lets get the Defensive stopper we need....

[Risky]

And what, exactly, do we have to give up for him? Nothing.

We're not getting Jason Smith. We'll get a big, stay-at-home D-man for a tier-two prospect on the Rats and a pick.

Maybe Smelhik will be back.

I'll bet we can have him for free.

[Devil Dog]

One thing is most certain... that Lou, if he does anything, will do something that no one is expecting.

Just talked to a woman I know who works for the Devs........She said its pretty much a 100% certainty a deal will be made today......She couldnt give specifics but heres some things:

Said the Hill talks have cooled considerably

The Morris 3 way was true, but fell apart after the Lanche felt they needed a Center, so thats why the Yotes deal went through.....

Anaheim is a team the Devils are talking too considerably......

Devils are preferring a defenseman who is signed for a few years or a younger defenseman who will be restricted for a few years..........

[LizDevil30]

Not as much trading as I had thought. 8:15 last trade.

[David Puddy]

You were right about Barnaby. Hopefully you're right here. Maybe another blockbuster with the Ducks? Rob, Carney and Gerber?

What 3 way deal w/Morris?

Edited by JesterDevil, 09 March 2004 - 11:20 AM.

[Risky]

I guess we were supposed to get Morris? I don't know, I didn't hear anything.

I wonder WHO we're talking to Anaheim about.

Carney?
Niedermayer?

...Sykora?

bum-bum-ba-bummmmm

Anyway, next 3 hours should be interesting.

[coldply123]

The Morris 3 way was a deal with the Caps and Lanche....

Devs get Morris

Caps get Hale, Ballard and a pick

Lanche get Witt and Kolzig

(N)Єverson must have had a source, my source said it was true, but fell apart at the last minute.......

[coldply123]

Well I need to get some lunch......Ill be back in an hour.......I expect to see activity on the increase......My source says that Rucinsky has been dealt pending league approval..........
