Why would Hossa sign a 1 year contract? It's better off for him if he signed a longer contract.

He wants the Cup.

Yes but why not sign a 3-4 year deal with the Wings then?
>> Anonymous
>>199695
How?
Hossa wants a Stanley Cup, and where better to go than the team that just won it. If he wins the Cup, great. Otherwise, his point totals are practically guaranteed to increase from last year with the Wing's offense, which will increase his salary in turn.

And a swift kick in the nuts for the Pens.

Wings' wouldn't give it to him, even if he did want it.
They had just about all of their core players already locked up for next season and plenty of cap room (They offered Sundin this same deal), but next year they've got Zetterberg, among others, to sign and they're going to need that cap room.

Wings can't afford to pay him past this season.

You forget Zettaburg's going to need some money soon. So a 1 year deal would help out the Wings over a multiyear deal. Also Osgood isn't getting any younger sooner or later they'll need a new goalie.

All right, just so everyone's caught up:

Pittsburgh has traded Colby Armstrong, Erik Christensen, Angelo Esposito and a 1st-round selection a few weeks ago--in other words, a major piece of their future potential--for Pascal Dupuis.

You can cross out "Whitney traded", as well. I highly doubt the Pens will find any favorable deals for him.

and picked up:

so basically the penguins have turned into the caps with a slightly better goalie?

I really don't understand these guy's. Terrien gets them to the finals, but noone wants to play for him? What more do you want?

Do these guys not liked being pushed? Or is the retardation in Shittsburgh contagious?

Anybody watching the Finals could see Hossa was the best player Pittsburgh was putting out on the ice.

Anybody apparently includes the Red Wings.

the only thing I'm stuck on is how in the fuck Detroit has the cap space for that. lol

One of the many benefits to drafting smart includes signing superstars for peanuts.
Zetterburg's contract doesn't expire until next year, when he'll end up getting what Hossa is right now.

Anybody did not, however, include the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Well, I'm sick to see this.

It's like the feeling when you are smacked hard in the balls. Detroit is by FAR the prohibitive favorite to repeat.

The only question is... will they be able to sell out their arena during the finals?

Hossa is now my most hated player in the entire league.

7.4 Million for 1 year?

It's like a fucking nightmare.

Seems pretty obvious that he intends to win the cup this year, and then cash in on a big ol' contract next summer. It's a smart move if he wants to guarantee (more or less, jesus) that he'll win the cup at least once in his lifetime.

All i can hope for is that he suffers a career-ending injury and/or that there is a race riot that destroys the entire city of Detroit.

I vote we put the Wings in their own conference so nobody ever has to play them. Seriously, fuck the Red Wings. And I'm not even a Pensfag. I'm just really that mad that they get all the good players.

Datsyuk
Zetterberg
Hossa
Lidstrom
Rafalski
Tentatively, Osgood
Tentatively, Franzen

Who else is there? Wings aren't really loaded down with excessive talent. They just play very well together. Ask the Rangers, hockey is a team sport, buying talent doesn't guarantee success.

They still play in a division that rivals the Southeast with it's shittyness.

Holland wants this to be the first of many years Hossa plays for the Red Wings, who will try to give him a long-term deal after ensuring Zetterberg and Franzen are under contract after next season.

"The hope is we can keep everybody," Holland said. "I've got some time now to see if I can put it all together."

This would be sweet. Also I,ve been hearing Jagr is going to shitsburg.

The best part is that supposedly it was Hossa who sent the offer to the Wings, not the other way around. He WANTS to be one of us.

You know who else is there? Darren Helm. Nobody got to see him outside the playoffs but that guy fucking FLYS. I hope he sticks around and gets to play more in the coming season. I smell potential in that guy.

Also, Hossa will (hopefully) learn to back-check like a champ from Z and Datsyuk. Good times in Hockeytown.
>> Anonymous
>>201330
They've got a lot of people playing in all positions so Helm will probably be in GR for most of the season.
Watch out for the Wings trading one of their defensive prospects though, since they have a huge logjam there
