LOL I put this up as the same time as BLNY & I think we both deleted our threads. I'll delete mine again.  I heard for Novotny & a 2nd. |

We should have a number dispenser like they have at the grocery store... Zubrus could have been a good second line center. But he wants 5 million in the off season so that makes him nothing more then a pure rental. Regardless, still a good pick up. |

(thought I'd put this in the Zubrus thread). |

FYI -Zubrus is still going out with his girlfriend from his Montreal days and would consider moving back here - she'd be thrilled. He lives in the area every summer. -Habs called Washington to inquire about his status before he got traded. www.cyberpresse.ca/article/20070301/CPSPORTS01/70301212/1002/CPSPORTS---- Personnaly, I'd look into him this summer, he's looking for a long-term deal, wants to settle down somewhere with his kids..... He wants a 5 year deal, for a 28 year old, that can make sense if he's not going to be too greedy. |

I like the combination of size & skill but I wonder about his contract demands. I heard he was asking for 5 million which is way too much. However that could have been the announcers mistake. The Habs actually called Washington eh? Was that in George McPhee's blog?  |

The Habs actually called Washington eh? Was that in George McPhee's blog? I agree that Zubrus could be too expensive, especially if he just goes off the numbers he got playing on Ovechkin's line. Still, he could be a very interesting #2 center, assuming Plekanec gets the #3 slot and Bonk is gone. If he's willing to take reasonable money over 5 years, I'd do it. BC, the check is in the mail, right ? |

If some fool pays Zubrus a 5 yr - 25 million contract based on his stats with Ovechkin, they should be checked into the local mental ward.
2005-2006 Capitals 71 23- 34- 57
2006-2007 Capitals 60 20-32- 52
That is like Bob giving Ryder 5 million .... I dont think so !!

BC, the check is in the mail, right ? Uh, yeah. It's in the mail. Should be there any day now. I like Zubrus (really?), but if he's asking for $5 million over 5 years... Yeesh. I'd offer him a $3 million for 5 years, and then watch the Hab nation go nuts in fury. Just for grins and giggles. |

Why would we go off like a bad firecracker? $3MM/yr for 5 years for a 28 year old guy with his decent skills and size seem ok to me.

'cause IMO, that's what Bulis is: Radek Bonk. Big, strong, solid, good 2-way guy but too often a non-factor. Look at non-Oveshkin season of Bulis and tell me you'd pay 3mil/yr for that? Without laughing. |

I mean Bulis reminds me of Bonk a lot and so I'm not sure I'd give this kind of player 3mil.

Never saw Zubrus as a Bulis.

Obviously Buffalo must consider themselves much weaker than the Hab's and felt they needed help more than Gainey feels we do?

Spector's is reporting a source that claims Zubrus is looking for a 5 year, $16 million deal. That's just over $3 mill per season. Too many years imo.
