The Ducks decided not to qualify him at $10 mil / yr :fuckthatshit: and he became UFA.

They need to sign Weber to a long-term contract and can't afford Suter, Weber, and Franson - that would be my guess.

hmm.. fairly healthy chunk of money to play with.

dbaz 07-03-2011 10:15 AM

Nashvilles current cap is at 35million. Franson still had a year left before rfa and made less than lebda. Id consider him better than lebda atm and has a brighter future as well. Lombardi made more but hes still better than both the players they got. Its like a Nhl 11 trade, bunch of crap for something better.

How old are you? Who's your son(s) that play on that team? :fullofwin:

shawn79 07-03-2011 10:51 AM

doubt MG is gonna do it tho, no cap space :okay:

iwantaskyline 07-03-2011 11:01 AM

Nashville - Toronto trade was pure salary dump by Nashville. Traded Lombardi who still has PCS who is owed 7 mill over two years so they can afford Weber and Suter.

spoon.ek9 07-03-2011 12:43 PM

just read an article about torres' departure from vancouver. he's very grateful for the opportunity that he was given here and would have loved to stay but it was a decision made in the best interest of his family as a whole. i wish him luck! gonna miss those huge hits from him :(

shawn79 07-03-2011 01:22 PM

they got franson.... burke type of player 6-5

lol you are twisting the story to one side... he promised the cup next year, and had a verbal agreement of 8mill a year, IF they were able to gain peices, such as selanne to the team to win the cup, but the gm didnt sign anyone, and he wanted a 10mill/yr contract, they said no so he left, took a huge paycut of 1mill to play with his friend selanne in colorado
