If this is your first time posting....You have to fight! Anyway I hate the Richards idea, I would rather stay with the changes we made so far. I can't take another high paid player that is never going to live up to our expectations. Anyone that gets 7 mil should be AO caliber nothing less.

His contract was originally valued at $39,000,000 with an annual cap hit of $6,500,000 beginning in 2008 and ending in 2014. The following is a season-by-season breakdown of the buyout. A negative buyout cap hit number indicates a credit.

LET HIM WALK!! Oh, ok...and replace him with what exactly? What free agent of his caliber is out there for that money or less? Or do you want to propose another NHL 09 video game trade where we give up nothing and get back a top-flight player. Zherdev is good, even for 4mm he is good. 60 point players in their mid 20s after 5 seasons in the NHL get paid that money. People just like complaining about Z

Although there is more and more rumour that we are dangling Dubi. I could see us trying to snag someone like Tanguay - he has previous chemistry with Drury and might play the role of a playmaker on a line with Gaborik. I don't see him potting more than 20 goals though so would he be worth the $5m per we would probably have to pay? Can he be a top line LW?
