badams Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Totally DaveO. Check this yo: Boston sign forward Michael Ryder to a 3-year deal worth $12 million Good... that will get them back for Samsonov coming to the Habs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 All I care about Boston-wise is a healthy Bergeron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Wow. I thought Ryder would have made a good "buy low" signing, take a chance on him bouncing back. But at $4M a season??? That's a terrible signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Not that I have caught up on all the signings but that is the one that dropped me to a 'WTF' state.Either there is a reason none of us are working for an NHL club or Boston should have called Rich Stadium on that one. Then again, who among of us really knows what is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberdinghy Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Speaking of WTF....THE NEW YORK RANGERS HAVE SIGNED DEFENSEMAN WADE REDDEN TO A SIX YEAR CONTRACT WORTH $6.5 MILLION PER SEASON.Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Good for Huet and Mark Streit for their raises. Had a great time watching you guys, enjoy your new contracts. Ryder gets $4M per season??? Claude Julien must really like him. Thanks for the 30 goal seasons. I'm glad that we will never have to negotiate with you again.Chicago is a land of utter folly. Huet + Khabibulin = 12M per season?? Add Campbell and you're almost at $20M for three players. That's Leafs logic right there...Redden gets $6.5M for six years??Most active teams yesterday:New Jersey signs 6 playersRangers signs 5 playersTampa Bay signs 4 playersMost pissed off guy about his new contract: Olaf Kolzig. From $5.45M to $1.5M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 The Rangers must not have seen Redden play the past two seasons. Six years??!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberdinghy Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 I still can't believe that...Hopefully they gave him a NTC too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 It will be interesting to see all the reactions when an off season happens where the salary cap is reduced and players have to pay back some of the cash and owners won't have the deep pockets.

Tissue Man Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Just read Hossa to detroit for a year..

Freak By Night Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Redden will put up better numbers then any sen dman. You're probably right - but it won't be $6.5 million worth of numbers. He isn't Al MacInnis for crying out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't Al MacInnis for crying out loud. Al MacInnis would probably get Chara money. I think the rangers overpaid a bit but compared to what other dmen got its not too bad. Ron Fucking Hainsey got 5yrs at 22.5 mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
