Ozzy Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Hey Uncle Larry.... CAN U READ THIS TOO???? Who was he told by? You, G Man, Pete's and Drew's Posts???? :rofl:
RichieNextel305 Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Once they were released, I think we all thought of the Islanders as an option. They were extremely close to getting Parise back at the deadline in 2020 when they got Pageau.
Sharpshooter Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Parise finishing his career where his Dad starred. It only makes sense.
RichieNextel305 Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Gotta give Lou credit. Navigated some tough calls pretty good, was able to flip Leddy and dump Ladd. If they’re able to bring these 2 in (even at this stage of their careers) in addition to getting Lee back, they’ll be primed to make another run next year. But, as we saw with the Rangers, playing this style and coming up short will eventually wear the threads on your tires very quick.

Any smart GM would try to get two excellent players on the cheap for another cup run. plus the piles cleared cap room, its a no brainer.

Oh, I thought you were gonna say "Any beat writer can scour this forum for good input" ;)
Karan Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 come down. cant get that excited at your age. this was obvious. Any smart GM would try to get two excellent players on the cheap for another cup run. plus the piles cleared cap room, its a no brainer. Pretty much this. Can't think of a better fit than NYI for these two.
Ozzy Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Pretty much this. Can't think of a better fit than NYI for these two. I'm not saying it's a bad move, Karan. I just think it's absolutely uncanny how many times we have a thread discussing trade/UFA targets for the Rangers or other teams, and all of a sudden a beat writer pretty much "comes up with this brilliant story". Amazing, I tell ya!!! :rofl:

Ozzy Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 has uncle larry ask you on a date yet? Twice now....told me he likes my car, but my winky was too small though! I think he's friend-zoning me! :rofl:

Blue Heaven Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 This was a no brainer especially Parise, Lou likes bringing in former Devils.
siddious Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 This was a no brainer especially Parise, Lou likes bringing in former Devils. Good pretty soon theyll be as bad as the actual devils.
Cash or Czech Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Link: Four years for a 36 year old? I'll be eagerly waiting to see who gives him that. Especially after the season he had on the scoresheet and the fancy stuff too. Maybe cost will be minimal since he's cashing two checks?
Phil Posted July 26, 2021 Author Posted July 26, 2021 The Isles will do it and won't even flinch. They gave Komarov four years, too, when the entire league was offering two years and the Rangers offered three. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
Kevin Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Dallas apparently just gave Suter 4 years. Seems crazy but Dallas is on the cusp on maybe this is the piece they need. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ozzy Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Brooksie is full of shit again It's not his fault, Simon...we haven't really given him enough to go on!! :rofl:
LindG1000 Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Yeah I mean every GM always gets every player they're interested in.
Sod16 Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Given that this contract has the same term as the remainder of his Wild contract and has slightly more than half the cap hit, I'm surprised that the Wild couldn't deal him with 50% retention. Too rich for Lou, thank God.
