This argument sucks, just because we have a new owner before this deadline doesn't mean we are going to be the biggest buyers in the world. It's impossible.
We're in 9th, two points out, with two games in hand, are you seriously thinking they won't have a shot of making the playoffs. Sneak into the playoffs and you could go all the way to the Stanley Cup Final, the team is playing their best hockey right now. Maybe add a subtle piece to the picture of someone you think can help the team out right now.
Okay here is my issue that I have. Do you really believe this team is going to make a run for the cup? If the 06-07 team couldn't which was ahell of alot better than this years squad what makes you believe that this team could. Dream on. I'm talking about Pegula's 3 year cup plan and building the team for that. I know we aren't going to build a winner at the deadline and I don't expect that. I'm just not a fan of keeping unrestricted players on the roster when you don't have a team that's not contending. Why lose them for nothing. Pegula's talked about more scouting why not give Darcy more picks to work with and maybe move up. This team right now has the 9th pick and this is a make or break road trip. Like I said I'm talking about Pegula's 3 year Cup plan. This is going to be a work in progress for any GM. The free agent class this year is weak and I wouldn't be surprised if Richards never hits the open market.
06-07 team was not built for any sort of defense, this team is built a hell of a lot better on the blueline.
Did anyone think the Flyers were going to make it as far as they did? Did anyone think Pittsburgh, Washington, New Jersey, Buffalo, and Boston were gonna fall flat on their faces like that?
You make the playoffs and anything can happen, remember how none of the top three in the East moved to the next round.
I don't want to see a move for the sake of making a move. I want them to bolster the team anyway they can, and if that means going with what we have, I'm fine with it. We've played good hockey and have more wins than losses in 2011 so far. We keep playing like this we can get the 6th, 7th, or 8th spot.

As I said in the GDT, the call on Rivet was horseshit. The Bruins player was holding onto Rivet's stick like it was the last fucking raft on the Titanic.
