I honestly have to say to all those wishing Bert and Nazzy to come back together, to just shut up. Honestly as someone pointed out before, they're past their prime and it's time for a new face on this team. It's the only way to get anywhere in the next season. If we resign Naslund and Bert again what's gonna happen to our team? Are we gonna see Bert taking dumbass penalties and Nazzy underacheiving again? I've been a nucks fan for as long as I've watched hockey and to be honest IT WON'T WORK!
So please stop hoping to see those guys back in a nucks jersey if you want this team to go far.

Remember naslund demitra jagr forsberg sakic are still out there 
Rumor says if oilers cannot sign hossa they will go after jagr  | |

I'm all for locking in great players to long term contracts but Hossa (imo) isn't near the level that a Crosby or Ovechkin is.

St.Louis matched it right away.
Flyers 2 season ago offered Kesler and we matched it.
Oilers offered ridiculous amount to Penner, thats what ticked Brian Burke off

Kevin Lowe has been around long enough to know not to let personal feelings interfere with business.

Gillis represented Nylander who agreed to sign with the Oilers last year only to have signed with the Caps. Lowe was ready for a presser and didnt pursue other ufas cause they thought they had nylander only to find out he signed with the caps via the media.
ouch.
so yah he hates gillis.
he didnt make friends with the blues today either

I know if I was a GM and some douchebag GM sent a crazy offer sheet to one of my players, I'd be sure to wait the full 7 days before giving notice as to whether I'll match or decline.
