      How do they have no balls?

      There were 4 legitimate top line scorers available:
      Hossa - Picked his team
      Gabby - Had multiple chances to re-sign, never would have
      Comrie - Went elsewere for a better deal, more $$$$
      Havlat - We got 'em


      I'm missing where we didn't have the balls to go after the big guys???

      I think we made smart long term decisions; Havlat took less money to be here which enabled us to have more flexibility in the future. We made smart financial decisions for our 5th and 6th D-man; Instead of paying a guy 1 mil with a broken leg...

      Currently we are 7.5 mil under the cap; this leaves money available for a big name next year too. And we have more options for potential trades IE: Harding

        Fletcher has done a great job IMO so far.

        Do you think Risedump would have done any better???? Hell no.

          Lemaire and Tremblay are back with the Devils. No suprise there. Should be good when the Rangers play 'em.

            Why? Gaborik will be out with a groin injury.

              Nah... I don't think he'll be hurt but he just won't produce and then be a total bust.

                    I was refer to the fact that he went to the rangers and was a bust. Have the Wild anything since signing havlet and zanon?

                      Signed G Wade Dubielewicz as a backup. Also RW Duncan Milroy and RW Jon DiSalvatore.

                        He's a solid backup and a cheap insurance policy if/when we trade Harding.

                        There are 3 teams over the cap right now and they will have to correct that before training camp. I could see us working a deal with Chicago if Bowman Jr. is willing to wheel and deal.

                          Harding was re-signed.


                          oh, and just cause I have a total man-crush on Koivu and anyone who knows me, knows this....
