CarpathianForest Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 lol no, I was wondering why you were even asking about development camp in this thread Ahhh! Dev camp like dev(elopment) camp. Not Dev camp like Dev(ils) camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snartly Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Ahhh! Dev camp like dev(elopment) camp. Not Dev camp like Dev(ils) camp. About Development canp, are people able to go there and watch? Or is it like a regular LL thing, and not open to the public? I was thinking about meeting some of the future Devils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 This is annoying. There's virtually nothing out there on Semin. The only stuff halfway believable is that the Canes and Wings are in on him along with the KHL. All the Semin/NJ just is pure rumor. There's nothing to suggest the Devils have even approached Semin.

njd3b1ink Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 there was news when he first came here cause it was a trade, and the only reason there was news when he was a free agent was cause it was a player we were trying to re-sign so the interest in bringing him back was already known. When it comes to players we pick up out of free agency for the first time there is rarely any news before it becomes official Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghdi Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 There is zero legitimate speculation. With the Kovy thing there was at least tiny slivers here and there. There is zero legitimate speculation about any team in the hunt for Semin. We got a lot of info on Kovy from the other side since LA was going after him so hard. His agent is clearly playing this one very close to the vest. Id say no news is just no news. We don't even know if the Devils made an offer.

SeanMac16 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 You can just go to the camp? When is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravityFat Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 No you can't go to camp, devils camps are closed secret little boxes they don't like to share in case fans enjoy seeing the dev players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 No you can't go to camp, devils camps are closed secret little boxes they don't like to share in case fans enjoy seeing the dev players. You can watch from the outside of the practice rink, although you might have to press your face up against the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsfan118 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 It's little things like this that I hope change once Lou retires. Why not let fans in? Show the young kids some support? What harm could it do? You'd have maybe 1000 people tops turn out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 It's little things like this that I hope change once Lou retires. Why not let fans in? Show the young kids some support? What harm could it do? You'd have maybe 1000 people tops turn out They'd have to hire security, and the development camp is about impressing the coaches, not about showing off for fans. I do agree that it would be nice if the Devils would do this, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't change when Lou leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreeCups Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I agree. It was more enjoyable during the days of South Mountain Arena. I refer to the South Mountain days at the "glory years". Practices open to the public, we were a legit Stanley Cup contender from late 90's-mid 2000's... I need the practices to be open again! Maybe one day...

ghdi Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Okay, back to Semin. Anything.....? Rumors about the Pens offering 2 years, 10 million. Other rumors of him signing tomorrow with Pittsburgh. Nothing completely believable, but seems to be a little smoke around this particular rumor. His agent was asked about this rumor today and said "Im not commenting".

That sucks if indeed that is the best offer out there. If Lou won't top that then he's going senile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghdi Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) That sucks if indeed that is the best offer out there. If Lou won't top that then he's going senile. Well then there was this: "Semin told me today there is no timeline on his decision where he will sign; wouldn't confirm the clubs that made offers." "As some asked re: the 3 year $30m reported offer to Semin from the KHL - false on both the term and the money." Chesnokov also says that the reason for the hold up is that Semin wants a longer term deal than what he has been offered. Thats from Chesnokov. No one's saying sh!t.

Neb00rs Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 3 years/17.5-18 would be the contract I would most favor for Semin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Well if Semin wants a long term deal then the offers from the other clubs must have been real sh!tty. The only reason I can think that Semin would go for 2 years at 10 mil is because he really wants to play with Malkin and "Dead Wood" Crosby.

ghdi Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 3 years/17.5-18 would be the contract I would most favor for Semin. Id go up to 4 if we can do the deal without an NTC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
