Rags get Backman.
Gill, just to be clear, went from Toronto to Pittsburgh.
lol The dumbass Penguins traded two picks for Gill including a 2nd rounder?
Shit. Gill, Hossa.
Pittsburgh is now the favorite in the East. No question.
Holy Shit.
Pittsburgh got Hossa.
Fuck the Penguins.
Remember everyone's predictions of them coming out on top of the East?
Alive again, aren't they.
Holy shit, Penguins had to give up Armstrong and Christansen. Also, Angelo Esposito, AND a first round pick.
Penguins will be dead as soon as this rental ends.
Oh, the Penguins also got Pascal Dupuis.
I know this makes the Penguins the fav, but I like Armstrong.
i didn't even know Gil still played. that IS a lol "deal".Quote:

Names don't win Cups. Pittsburgh now has big names, no depth, no D, and no grit. They will not win the Cup this year, so this was a stupid trade.Quote:

Yes, Pens = Wow. Thats some goofy NHL2K8 video game trading there.
Names DO win cups. Ask Borque, Forsberg, Niedermayer, etc...Quote:

Which doesn't mean they can win against the West, btw.
Pretty much, exactly.Quote:
