jim777 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 (edited) A 9AM conference call and a faxed copy of the decision would do it. It's win/lose, so the bottom line would still be 2 part remit from the arbitrator - here's the decision, and here's the reason behind it. Call could take all of 5 minutes.

Devs1965 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 (edited) Soo....here's to hoping the decision is announced before 5PM If they say 48hrs, well the arbitrator ended at 2:30pm on Thurs so I would hope it is before 2:30pm today Edited August 9, 2010 by Devs1965 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHICOEATS11 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hope Janssen's source is reliable !! Of course it's reliable. I hear he got it directly from Bloch and Bettman themselves when he, erm, paid them each a "visit" over the weekend to "discuss" the upcoming decision. In unrelated news, the NHL is expected to remain silent when later this week St. Louis announces a 23-year extension to Cam Janssen's contract.

DevsMan84 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 It's D-Day. When this thread is in the HOF, newbies will be looking at this page in awe that we were apart of the biggest day in Devils history. (Exaggeration? Yeah. Useful for drama? Mmmhmm) I know. I also cannot believe I was around when they announced the new squad for the 2010-11 Devils Dancers. Memories.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevsMan84 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Alyssa is my favorite I always liked Ashley, but Felicia will always hold a special place in my heart as she was the Dancer that escorted me out when I did Score-O this past season. Alisha, Alyse, and Cristina look like good additions too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eldon Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 No matter what happens today, the Devils will still beat the Stars tonight on NHL-Net (8-midn, edt). I was hoping they'd broadcast Canada's telecast, but those damn commercials have Gary Thorne (in our side) calling the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegame346 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I'm glad this is all finally coming to an end. i am confident Kovy will remain a Devil. If Bloch ruled in favor of the NHL it will be the biggest example of a back alley deal between him and the league to have ever occured in pro sports.

Random Poster Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Just to let everyone know... something to think about... the Dagoon guy over on HF that broke the Kovy trade created a thread and said he heard that the PA won the case and Kovy stays a Devil. Cam Janssen also Twittered that the Devils won and Kovy stays. Dagoon is a VERY reliable guy. Dagoon is the Pointon Still guy. He got tipped off on the Kovalchuk trade by the two players (Oduya, Bergfors) who were involved in the deal. He had an autograph signing with the players that was cancelled due to the trade and one of them had a case of loose lips when contacting him before the trade was announced to the public. Dagoon has been making a living off of that ever since as some sort of "inside" man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim777 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 (edited) Since it hasn't come up yet, I'm assuming there is no place to look in particular for a formal announcement?

Can't ever just let anyone even a basically fictional person who doesn't know you or care who you are or what you think even -- oy -- just forget it. You're just too much a of a combative downer. What happened to you even -- did we all just get to know you better or something? Anyhow - have fun selling your crap literally and figuratively. Nice knowing you for a while there.
