Call up Weber to address the right point on the PP and put Bouillon in the stands. Weber would also help strengthen our poor transition game.
Trade Kovy to a western conference team for draft-picks and replace him in the lineup with Tanguay.
Get whatever we can get (likely middle round picks) for UFA 3rd and 4th liners (Begin, Kostopoulos, Dandenault, etc) and replace them with guys like Stewart, Chipchura, Henry.

Then see how far the young guys can take us.
ya lets start rebuilding from sratch ...
this team sure has a better chance to win the cup without kovy, bouillon and kostopoulos if you can somehow remplace them with stewart chipchura and webber ...
I know we're probably going to earn a lifetime ban from HF , but I'd pull the trigger on that trade, don't tell anyone.
To be honest...so would I. Smith is a good #1, so is Price though. But we'd have a #1 goalie and a a franchise #1 center if we'd pull of that trade, where as right now we have just a potential franchise goalie. Let the flames begin.
Rebuilding from scratch?? WTF?? So you call replacing Kovalev, Begin, Dandy, Kosto, Bouillon with Tanguay, Chippy, Stewart, Henry, Weber is rebuilding from scratch? You're crazy!
All I'm suggesting is that we punt instead of going for it on 4th and 20 (i.e.- trade long term assets for a 1-2 month rental). We might still be able to have a decent run.

I can't believe you went there... but since we are already doomed , I'd like to add ;

I have to say sarcasm was the essence of that post , I actually think trading kovalev won't help us win ... shocking isn't it?
You sound like the bipolar retards who call CKAC to whine every time Price is struggling.
We're just joking around...relax, people get offended to easily around here. We're just throwing around proposals that would actually make people think about doing it or not. If that was what was offered to Gainey, I'm sure he'd think long and hard about it and so would you.

I should have used this to make it obvious:
Kovy has been a linemate killer this season. Everyone he plays with turns to dirt. I seriously doubt we'd miss him. We may lose out on talent but we'd be a better TEAM without him.

I respect your opinion, but I don't share it ... can I go now?
iwould dump kovalev and fast, he is a useless quitter,ship him home to russia for a bottle of cheap vodka
Or try putting him in nets. Where the real problem is right now. Price is not doing the job right now. I know uttering those words around here is blasphemous but it's the cold reality.
