There's a joke in here about Boudreau going to the Ducks and interfering with the efficiency of the market for Bobby Ryan, but I'm too tired to figure it out.
That is unless the other interested teams send some of the assets they were including for Nash elsewhere.
True. And that could very well include the Rangers, if another deal to land the likes of Brown, St. Louis, or someone else out of left field pops up.

Actually, the party that would be the most screwed by bad-faith negotiations isn't Sather or Burke. For them, it's just a deal that wasn't meant to happen, and they just move on. The guy who's really screwed is Nash, as he wants to have a decent shot at competing for the Cup while he is still in his prime. Not an unreasonable request after toiling for a decade with the Bad News BJs. Howsom selfishly screwing over a longtime warrior and upstanding citizen like Nash just to spite other teams,.... that would make him persona non grata in many quarters.

Just stopping by...I must say this is hilarious. Would this be an application of perfectly inelastic supply?
Considering you can't realistically sell half a Nash, it might be.
In any event, it has become pretty abundantly clear that we're not in it anymore. As a matter of fact, it looks more and more likely that we're standing pat.
Being a finance major I decided to model a quick supply/demand curve for this whole Nash situation...ignore if you've never taken economics...
i godda see this...but can't. I feel like I'm 86 years old and don't know how to use a computer. I tried saving it but comes up blurry when I enlarge. help...
You mean the media outlet that totally forgot about 30+ hockey players' deaths this summer publishes amateur videos? I hate them for that.
What is this? ESPN is a joke, I simply commented on the fact that those videos look like they were shot in a conference room with some college AV guys doing the work, and that's your response?
