FiddySicks Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 He's probably a Bruins fan getting some shots in. Also, while I don't doubt that Conan O'Brien makes more money than Dustin Penner, I don't think the guy who got $21 million just for being kinda big is the right guy to get at for not making enough money to talk.I was mainly pointing out that while the joke was well played, it's probably not accurate. I would've gone at viewership for Conan's show vs viewership for NHL games, but I couldn't find the numbers.

charger77 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 MLIVE.COM: Ansar Khan reports a source claiming the Detroit Red Wings made ? a hell of an offer? to the Columbus Blue Jackets for right wing Rick Nash, but it failed to generate a conversation, leading to speculation Blue Jackets management don?t want to deal Nash to a division rival like the Wings. It?s unknown what the Wings offered, leading Khan to speculate either Johan Franzen or Valtteri Filppula might have been part of it.SPECTOR?S NOTE: It could be the Blue Jackets simply didn?t get an offer they felt warranted a response. Whatever the reason, this is expected to drag on into the fall, and it?s anyone?s guess which of the six teams on Nash?s wish list (the Red Wings are on it) he?ll be dealt to.

We've already had one player come back to play where he started. Imagine good ole Mike Modano coming back to relive his North Star days. I can already feel my egohometown pride rising.

crashcarson15 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Scott Howsen seems to think that Rick Nash is the second coming of Eric Lindros.More like he knows he'll be run out of town if he takes anything less than what some people might think Nash is worth. He's created the mess that the team's in, and really the only way to turn some form of public opinion back to being decently favorable to him is by getting a huge return for Nash.For the most part, us Columbus fans think extremely highly of Rick Nash. After all, he's the only star the Jackets have ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Rick Nash is a great player. Look what he has done in Columbus, playing with no one. Kept whatever fans they had around, so of course Howson needs to get the best he can, but Howson is doing the smart thing not trading within the division. But if that rumoured deal from the Rangers wasn't enough to grab Nash, Howson is going to keep going, and no one is going to get Rick Nash.

The_Admiral Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Franzen is on a good contract and he's a nice player to have, but he'd be kind of a lost soul on the Beej with no Datsyuk or Zetterberg to complement. I don't think he'd have the same kind of rapport with, say, R.J. Umberger.Speaking of the Red Wings and the general feel of them being a whole lot less Red Wingy, it's dawning on me that a season-cancelling lockout might be preferable to what's probably going to be an abjectly unwatchable season. Write down the Western Conference teams minus Columbus on scraps of paper and throw them in the air. There, a perfectly plausible prediction of the standings. Everyone is at best a seventh place team and at worst a ninth place team who with a few lucky breaks could be an eighth place team that just might win it all like those Los Angeles Kings showed us is possible. It's no better in the East, as now the Hurricanes are making some perfunctory attempt at being a hockey team as they tend to do roughly every five years or so, so add them to the blob with the Senators, Islanders, Parise-less Devils, and the rest of the NASCAR Division. God help us all. Keeping this league on track as a functional and compelling entity is like managing a nine-year-old boy with ADD. You look away for one moment and it's right back off the rails into a ditch of irresponsibility and aimless wandering. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashcarson15 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Nash isn't even good! At this point if it's a decent offer take it Columbus!You really want a 32-year old as the centerpiece of a deal for Nash? I highly doubt if asked the same thing a year ago, you would've said "Nash isn't even good." He's by far and away the best player the franchise has ever had, and if the 2010 Olympics wasn't a prime example of what he could do with talent around him, I don't think there is one. He's a very good player that in the right setting could be a great player.You really aren't going to tell me Brandon Dubinsky's ever going to be as good as Nash, right?

The_Admiral Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 The problem with demanding the world for Nash is that eventually teams are going to stop offering the continents and oceans they've been offering so far. Other than merely having the rights to his contract, Columbus has very little leverage: squatting on him any further with a bad roster and bereft farm system will not cause the team to get better. I base this on a body of evidence no smaller than, oh, I dunno, Rick Nash's entire tenure with the Beej. You're not going to get an equivalent player, nor a collection of players who hypothetically add up to an equivalent player. They can get some pretty good roster players and some decent to good prospects, and this should be acceptable. Alternatively, this organization can keep spinning its wheels in the Rick-Nash-and-some-other-dudes rut indefinitely and see where that takes them. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
