Schneider waived

Thanks to Bluewhiteandgolf for the tip, it's official now.

We're like...18th in line. Word around the campfire is Boston is trying to sweettalk the Isles and Coyotes out of taking him.

Tampa is real interested (as they should be!).

Oh crap! If Tampa snags him, suddenly their sloppy D just got better!

What is Murray doing? What? Trade Kuba, grab Schneider and you're set. If he gets injured, that's what the kids are for.

Burke couldn't have even gotten a 5th rounder for him?

I'm starting to think he's got Dung for brains.

Took the words right out of my mouth...

Something is going on at the Sens office though...

MEANING???

has it ever been done where a team claims someone off waivers and immediately trades them to the Ottawa Senators? Stay tuned!

that would be pretty sly....and give us our 10th Dman.

just meaning that I've heard that Murray has been manning the phones like mad and what little bit of news comes trickling out of Sens front office all seems to indicate he's working on something...

That's really encouraging that he's still not satisfied even after a very productive summer! Good man!


If you were a betting man what do you think he's working on?

1)Scheider
2) a Forward
3) Both?

As much as it's going to be great having all that competition at camp, we've just got too many NHL ready bodies to not make some moves. Keeping ice time away from our rookies (Winchester, Fol, bass, Zubov, lee)will only hamper their development.

and then of course I could sound like Ek..

4) Something tied to Sundin????

honestly Bigrig, I have NO idea.

I've heard both: one guy seems to think Murray is still after a PMD and PP QB; while another side feels that he's targetting a top 6 to truly create a legitimate 2ndary scoring threat.

I really don't know, but hypothesizing about who could be coming, and what salary or player(s) have to be moved is tiring!

I'll see what I can find out in the next few hours... Hopefully, I'll be back this evening with news, good news, but if not, I'll be around tomorrow morning!

What's a PMD?

Schneider isn't an option. If Murray wanted him, he'd have had him. He will not clear waivers. There are teams (Tampa, Atlanta) that would take him.

Murray said the other day the only thing he's looking for is a PMD, not a top 6 forward. It wouldn't surprise me to see the Kings swap him up before we get the chance.

Why are you so hell bent on trading Kuba? I really like Kuba.

Not to mention flipping players is not a good thing to do.
