Well, not sure where you get Detroit falling apart at the seams, but regardless, that was a monster signing by Colorado, except for one thing. They still have horrible goalies and the two Kariya and Selanne are two of the worst defensive forwards in the league. They also traded away one of their goalie bargaining chips already in Reinprecht. They have had an amazing crop of forwards for years now, and they still have needed to be bailed out by Roy, so unless they can grab up Khabi, they will still struggle. The crazy part of that deal is Kariya signing for 1.9 mil. What up with that? They said he had a special reason, the are being hush hush about it.
My prediction on Federov is he is headed to Anaheim, but thats just a gut feeling, not really based on too much fact. But as a Wings fan, its about time he drags his whinny ass outta town. But I really think we missed the boat on Marchant as a replacement for him. He is fast, defensive, can score goals on the front lines, and a good leader. Now he is going to waste away in CLB.
And you guys can keep Lindros, I didnt want him here the first time his offer came around 2 years ago, and I still don't. He is damaged goods, and will just ruin the lockeroom chemistry in Detroit. We just got rid of one whiner, dont need one to replace him.
And finally, as much as I like Hasek, I can't believe we are going to screw Joseph over after 1 semi-bad season. Hasek used Detroit and left em like a prom date, and now they are scrambling to get him back at the slightest hint of his return. Just a tad dissapointed if that is how it all goes down.
