Seems everyone wants D. Why can't we trade Ballard for 2 2nd round picks?

Is Dregs quoting Keenan?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Luongo --> TO for Komisarek and a couple picks --> BUF for Pominville ---> VAN

I'm bored :( (and jaded).

Poor Dreger seems so despondent.
Yep, there's goes cousin Doughnut Dave's leverage in any deal. That said, given he's the only buyer for Lu it won't make the return much different.

I think McArthur, prospect close to the NHL (maybe Blacker? He's a RH dman) and a conditional 1st is about all we can expect. It's not a great return but what are you going to do, market dictates what you can get.

I'm sure we could, but would need another dman in return. With no Barker for depth and Alberts as the #6 guy it's really iffy, would likely need 1 and maybe 2 more guys capable of stepping in.

Now all the pundits saying Bishop is on everyone's radar and he will get a better return that Luongo. But he is UFA at the end of the season and certainly doesn't come with Luongo's resume.

Now They say the Bullin Wall is the perfect fit for the leaves.

Going to take the dog to the beach now, let me now if anything happens that does not involve a rumour and the Laughs :mex:
Why watch. Does it really matter?

The last few years have been snooze fests until the final hour and the immediate post trade cutoff hours. This year, fewer players are apparently in play.


You want to watch Nonis's cousin and Bobby Mac in a circle jerk, go for it.
Well, not really watching per say, have the tab open while I work so more listening to the drive.

Hey, it's better than FAN590 and constant Blue & While diarrheic verbiage.

'Sides, you're my Homos...er Homies...I come on here to read any juicy stuff :D

If Kipper is retiring in a couple of weeks, does Feaster pursue Bernier or Smith or stay with Joey and the kid in Europe?

Considering Luongo's glove hand, that's funnier than it should be. :P

Heh, they are planning the World Series Championship parade route already (slight detour to hispanic/black part of town from the annual Laugh route.)
