yort44 21 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I'm reading he resigned with Columbus. Which is it? http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/signings_2008/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MantaRay 72 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Ha-Ha. What is Atlanta doing? I guess this is the next logical stop, Hainsey couldn't make it in Montreal when they sucked or Columbus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

britdevil 0 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Ron is going to look awful on an abysmal Atlant squad. No way he is worth that cash. I wanted Hainsey too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LOTCB 24 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I'm reading he resigned with Columbus. Which is it?http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/signings_2008/ That is what I was seeing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MantaRay 72 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I would be surprised if he re-signed in Columbus, I remember reading that Hitchcock made him a healthy scratch at one point towards the end of the season because his play just tanked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PeteyNice 0 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 TSN has it too: http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?id=11353 The Thrashers need to spend money. They are well below the minimum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dali 0 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 TSN confirms that the Trashers indeed have signed Hainsey. Well, this was his payday. It makes Salvador Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PeteyNice 0 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I dunno about that. Hainsey is younger and is better offensively. Generally, I would rather have Hainsey at 4 than Salvador at 3. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
msweet 141 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Makes that Salvador deal hurt a little more. The opposite I'd say...makes the El Salvador deal look better. $22.5M vs $11.6M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get. I must be missing something. I watched a fair bit of Hainsey last season and I wasn't overly impressed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SatansDevils 6 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) DAMMIT! I was hoping Lou would have signed Hainsey. Atlanta got a good defenseman. Sh!t! Looks like either Smith or Orpik now. Edited July 2, 2008 by SatansDevils Quote Link to post Share on other sites

maxpower 21 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Atlanta is seriously in danger of not making the floor. This will not be the end. The different cap pages vary, but the one linked to Єklund (2.3% accurate) (2.3% accurate) has them at $31.5 million with Hainsey, 18 players. They have to spend roughly $10 million on 5 players (one of them being Kari Lethonen as an RFA), just to make the floor. Considering UFA's are not biting on ATL's money, and you can't fill the void with entry levels (since their salaries are way too low), they have a serious challenge and their GM is an idiot, to boot. DAMMIT! I was hoping Lou would have signed Hainsey. Atlanta got a good defenseman. Sh!t!Looks like either Smith or Orpik now. We're not signing a UFA defenseman. It's pretty obvious. They'll be trading for a defenseman. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
