American_Psycho Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Lou knows we've been soft for awhile. This guy absolutely destroys people, and with Arnott back up front, we are now a lot tougher to play against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSC Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 In the same day we lost a fragile, overrated defenseman, we get a solid D-man and the NHL's best shot blocker. So far this day is a win. While I agree the defense is better, I wouldn't call Martin overrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils731 Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 I'm guessing this means the end of Sal and/or maybe White? I think you're probably correct but even if it's true, it wouldn't surprise me if the team didn't make a trade until training camp has opened and they can see how some of the younger defenseman look in camp. If they all look like crap then maybe the team doesn't deal anyone while if they look good the team can feel more comfortable moving guys.

SS-SS Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 HOLY fvck 6 years.......... This maybe means that we are not hitting the cap to bad so it give us money for Kovy. I'm guessing this means the end of Sal and/or maybe White? Well it depends...If Lou thinks our D is good like that well it will be all on signing Kovy and if not well maybe you will see white or Salvy going in a trade for Kaberle.

Devil Dan 56 Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 *Pats myself on the back* Halfway there. My apologies on the Volchenkov part, man. I really thought he was headed to the Caps.
