NHL 2013 off season thread

Nashville picks up Viktor Stalberg and Matt Cullen.

What is that now, three Blackhawks that have left the team? Emery, Stalberg, and Bolland?

Ryder back to Boston perhaps?

Rumored snag in the Lecavalier deal. Worry is that the Flyers have yet to make it official and the media is deducing this lack of pen to paper is cause for concern.

 

[MJ5150]

TSN reporting the Flyers were hot after Scuderi before he chose Pittsburgh.

They are also reporting Horton will be out until December after shoulder surgery.

Can't believe after 17 years in Ottawa, Alfredson signs with Detroit for a 1 year deal, instead of retiring in Ottawa. End of an era with a bombshell.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

And Weiss signs with Detroit. Great moves by Detroit.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

Hah. Rumor is Melnyk offered Alfie 1 year $550k.

 

[MJ5150]

I hope Alfredsson wasn't going to Detroit to play with Valteri Filppula, he just signed with Tampa Bay.

-Mike

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

Bobby Ryan to the Sens! I feel like I'm watching a market exchange scene from Trading Places.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

Rumors of Talbot and Coburn to the Canadiens?! what is going on lol

 

[MJ5150]

Wow, that's a biggie for Ottawa. Ryan was rumored to Philly off and on over the last couple years. Nice replacement for Alfredsson, about 10 years younger.

-Mike

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

Crosby is apparently trying to convince Dan Cleary to sign with the Pens.

 

[Ziltoid]

Parros with the habs. lol.

 

[MJ5150]

Boston better sign Rask, Khudobin just left for Carolina.

I don't think these rumors hold water cause apparently they are all in French.

Also word on the street is that the beyond letting the ink dry on a Gagne re-signing; the Flyers are done for the day.

Dominic Moore early candidate for feel good NHL story of 2013-14? I'll set aside the '10-11 playoffs. I like the guy.

[tastybasslines]

Didn't we just have a lockout? The GM's are going crazy!! Clarkson at 7 years and 37 million?? For a goon whose basically sole trait is fighting?

Im baffled!

 

[Ziltoid]

I think the Talkbot rumor might be more than just a rumor.

Story says Seguin was partying too hard during the season and his commitment to the team was questioned.

http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2013/07/05/seguins-mom-accuses-bs-of-making-up-stories/related/

"Multiple sources said the 21-year-old Seguin crossed the line this season with reckless partying.

It apparently got so bad that during the playoffs, the Bruins ordered Seguin to live in a hotel, where a guard was hired to make sure he stayed in his room."

"According to sources around the team, Seguin was out late in Toronto during the road trip to play the Leafs in the first round of the playoffs and the team had to hold a sit-down with the immature forward about his commitment to the team. Seguin showed up each day at the Air Canada Centre wearing the same clothes for three straight days and played badly in Games 3 and 4 of the first round against Toronto."

Trash the guy after he leaves to make yourself feel better I guess?

You think the Bruins really did that? If it's not true, then it's called slander.
