If $10M over two years for Hemsky was a joke, then Wideman at $26.25M over five is? https://twitter.com/ryan_batty/statu.../photo/1/large

It may get slept on, but the most recent lolflames lolfeaster is primetime for a good old fashioned lolcaps. The rights to that **** bum got us a prospect and a pick. Now if only we couldve dealt him duringthe season when we figured out he sucked dick. But no

Braun's deal is 3 yrs @ $1.25m hit (he's a UFA when it expires), Desjardins is $640k for 1 yr (still RFA). I'm very happy about both.

Fyi geddy I told my brother about your flames rants and hes a big fan. I was killing time today watching Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (lolol) when he texted me about the trade and said "your boy alex will love it". Your legend grows

Sorry Geddy. As a fan of a former Wideman team, I wish I could say it's not all that bad. But it is.

Not bad.
This is a great Dman with high end offensive skill.

5 might be a bit much, but oh well! Happy to get another big time guy!
Someone on lolhfboards.

The Leafs are way better at d-man contracts, what with Komisarek only getting 5 x 4.5 instead of 5 x 5.25.

As an aside, it's nice to not have to worry about the Flames getting better in our quest to rack up a decade of President's trophies.

Getting close to the end of my rope with the current management/team with the way Gillis handled the Pavel HOF announcement. Such a joke.

at least bouwmeester has a better upgrade than butler and the first d pairing won't be completely awful!
