@JeffMarek: $2.75 is the arb ruling for Antti Niemi. Blackhawks have 48 hours to accept or decline. Posted via RS Mobile | |

It doesn't really matter who Chicago has in net as long as the core of their team remains the same. The Red Wings had pretty much the same team for their 3 Stanley Cup wins in 1997, 1998 and 2002. Not to mention they won with a different starting goaltender for each Championship.

Niemi played really well for Chicago and got hot at the right time for them. People say its the core that makes a team win a stanley cup, but i think it takes every1 to do it. The Byfugliens, Bollands, and Ladds that are always overshadowed by the Toews and Kanes but they play a huge part in there cup win.
Red Wings are different, they were simply just too good of a team, and they were able to win championships with mediocre goaltending

Red Wings are different, they were simply just too good of a team, and they were able to win championships with mediocre goaltending | Your core group doesn't consist of just star players. It's the players you build your team around. Other than Yzerman, Shanny, Fedorov, and Lidstrom they still kept the same grinders like McCarty, Draper and Maltby for all 3 Championships. It didn't matter who filled their 2nd and 3rd lines.
And I'm not sure what you mean by mediocre goaltending. Mike Vernon, Chris Osgood and Dominik Hasek were all above average to all star goaltenders.

Wasn't it Tallon who signed Campbell and Hossa? I've heard the owner/president forced him to do it though. Unless you were talking about Tallon then nvm lulz

I'm 50/50 on the Halak/Niemi non-signing by Montreal and Chicago.
On one hand, how can you let them go after such steller performances in the playoffs?
On the other hand, it was smart because most goalies in the league these days are one-shot wonders. Either they are good for a few years then suck and then maybe good again for a few more and then suck, or they have one-shot deals. It's rare to have a always-steady goaltender like Brodeur. Once you find one like that, you better keep him no matter what! Lets hope Luongo is who we hope he is...

I'm not saying the bonuses was not deserved but I think he was underestimating Kane/Toews at the time and now they're going to have a lower cap than everyone else

Yup, they've signed Turco to a $1.3 million deal.
