LOL? This is the dumbest trade rumor ever. Why would the Yotes do this when they said they wanted to keep Meuller? We dont need guys that score on their own net
All i can say is that I'm hopeful we actually pick up a legitimate scorer at the deadline. That has been our main problem for many years, we haven't had a consistent sniper. Look at all of the teams in the NHL, it seems that on every roster, there is a player that is known for goal scoring and nothing else. Phoenix doesn't have that. I mean we have Doan, yes, but he focuses on being more of an all around player to help the team when needed. We need someone that can go out there, get some goals, and create excitement. We have enough secondary scoring which most came from last years deadline (the best we've had in years IMO) now it's time for some top line guys.
If not the deadline, then I will hope to grab one(possibly 2.. ) in July
Probably won't happen, but let's say Plekanec doesn't want to sign a new contract and that the Habs look like they're out of contention, would you consider something like:
Lombardi
Mueller
Tikhonov
vs
Plekanec
3rd rounder (?)
Pleks almost has twice as many points as your first scorer right now.
Lombardi's a UFA this year as well.
Mueller looks like he needs a change of scenery.
Tikhonov is a great prospect, but Pleks remains a very good top-line center who'd improve any of your wingers instantly.

That for a rental? Is the sky ROse Colored and does everyone wear Ty-dye T-shirts in your world?

I had to check my calendar to make sure it's not April 1st. Best laugh out loud moment for me since watching the Hangover the other night.

wow. well when you put it that way we'd be crazy not to make that deal (note sarcasm).
Here's an update. We're 12 games over 0.500 right now and playing very well. Phoenix sits in 5th spot in the NHL as of this morning.

Outrageous deal. Take away the 3rd rounder from of Montreal's, and it makes it closer.
