And Bloob, he was a UFA. UFA Negotiation rights are never expensive. There’s no comparing the two trades. Completely different circumstances. Unless you wished Benning had traded for the right to negotiate with UFA Hayes instead of trading for Miller?
The Flyers didn’t pay a pretty penny in acquisition cost to get Hayes.
And why was that Blob? Why was it so cheap to acquire a player who ended up getting $7 Million per year for 7 years?
Who cares? Why are you so concerned about Hayes?

You a Flyers fan now?

We already went through this. I initially did , then I slowly came around on it. Do we need a full rehash? I did say Miller was a good target and a good player right off the hop.

Or are you still wishing for a crack at 17 year olds Sourdiff or Zary instead?

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

St. Louis Blues
Troy Brouwer and Jamie McGinn will join the Blues this week on professional tryouts.
Blues sign Brouwer, McGinn to professional tryouts
Former Blue Troy Brouwer and Jamie McGinn have signed professional tryout contracts with the St. Louis Blues.
They don't mess around when it comes to depth, I guess.

Weren’t those two guys a lock to be a top line centre and a top pairing D man? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Blob where does Ryan Clowe rank on your all time favourite hockey players list?
