I'll love to hear the boos Shattenkirk gets in whichever building he doesn't sign in.

Let's get Kulikov signed.

My namesake is letting me down. This is tragic.

To be fair- it wasn't his head. Technically, since he tweeted it, it was his fingers.

Truly groundbreaking information from the legend who couldn't beat out Scott Clemmenson for the backup position.

Please god no

Yeah, pass on Kulikov. He's garbage.

Not liking all these deals being released before the window opens. 

That was half the fun in the past. The crazy rush.

Sounds like he's going to WPG anyway

Looks like only way we're bringing back decent D is through trade.

Here's hoping its a leak in order to get more money last second from the Devils or something.

Beats the hell out of him going to NYR.

EDIT: My bad, thought we were talking about KS.

Why would anyone want to go to that parkless hell hole?

Kulikov is solid, young, and we're not in any position to make statements like this about any NHL quality defense anyway.

He isn't solid at all. He blows. There's a reason Florida dumped him and Buffalo is letting him walk.

The Rangers jealousy on this board really makes me laugh. 

[MadDog2020 7,664]

Forget it. This a$$hole has his heart set on wearing a blue jersey and never winning sh!t: https://mobile.twitter.com/NYP_Brooksie/status/881175632419356673?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fhfboards.hockeysfuture.com%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D2365061%26page%3D27

It's not jealousy, it's bewilderment at willingly going to a club that has a track record of having their big UFA signings crash and burn.

One cup in 7 and a half decades. They're the most overrated franchise in sports.

I don't know what the hype is about Kevin Shattenkirk.  It's not like he's the second coming of Scott Niedermayer or Scott Stevens. 

[mfitz804 9,388]

Keep telling yourself that.

 Honestly, which of you would turn down a multi year multimillion lucrative contract to play hockey near your hometown, for the team you grew up rooting for, in order to play for a team you probably hated, or at the very least, a team that hasn't made the playoffs in years. This is probably the culmination of a dream for him.

Why would you expect him to blow that off to sign in New Jersey?

A piece of stale bread looks like a feast to a starving man.

Business decisions don't get made like that. He isn't gonna not sign with the Devils because he was a Rag fan when he was 12.

5 minutes left until we miss out on all the decent players and sign Dan McGillis and Vladimir Malakhov to ridiculous contracts. 

 

Oh wait...

[MB3 4,985]

We signed Brian Boyle?

y tho.

Really? Free agents never choose to sign somewhere because it's their hometown team? Really? Are you sure?
