Dudes, be ready for a plethora of waivings I think.

This one...could be a nice one if he ever gets to us.

Not many people other than Vinny and St.Louis and Ranger. Garbage team. You can't force chemistry like they're trying to do. Bad management!

Yeah I guess the Ranger and Maple Leaf examples didn't get down to Tampa... LOL

116 pts in 187 games, not bad. Not sure we don't already have 3 or 4 of this guy though.

Was Khabby the domino that starts a mini-pre-season frenzy? HA HA!

Not really, he has a career in the NHL. I don't think you'll see him in the minors at any time. Plus, he's a back-to-back-to-back high teens in goals. If he can find his niche with a team looking for a big body to play, he'll easily get 20 goals. Easily!

Say we take him, who do you move out? I just think we already have a glut of forwards up front and Schubert is not impressing anyone on the backend.

I dunno....that's the fun of what's going to be about 20 guys being waived in the next 48 hours. Who do you want, how much $$ do they make, where do they fit, why would we get them. :D

I would love to stick Ouellet on the wing with Spezza and Heatley personally. Go to the net, stick down and drive home some rebounds - then move Alfie down with Foligno and Winchester or Winchester and Vermette.

Or...a Foligno - Fisher - Ouelette 3rd line. Barf. You hate us so much, don't you. Or a Ruutu - Bass - Neil 4th line...boo hoo hoo. You don't get better than that. You bleed disaster onto teams with small forwards/defense.

Die! 8)

If I remember correctly he played well against us when he was in Pitts when we went to the SCF. I suspect he could be a good fit if Murray thinks Winchester needs to spend time in the AHL.

I would take him in a heartbeat. I have always liked his potential. From his initial years in Pittsburgh to his year in Tampa Bay. This kid just needs a chance.

To try and sell you some more, have a look at his +/- from last year and than compare that to everybody else on the Lightning. He is the only player that played for Tampa Bay all of last year that is in the pluses. Not just a little plus either, +11. He is a good player and would love to see him in a Sens uniform.
