RockRaines Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I actually wouldnt mind Pronger and Forsberg. The team would grow in size overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't mind Forsberg? Haha, I would love him. It's too bad he will probably never come here. I think he is looking for a cup worthy team and then maybe retiring afterwards.

Wise Master Buehrle Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Forsberg is my 2nd favorite NHL player, behind Ruutu. If we landed him... holy cow I'd be ecstatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By no means was he underrated. and not to sound like a jagoff, but do you have any idea who Isbister is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hrdak or whatever on ESPN supposedly said that Modano has made his choice between Boston and Chicago. I'm not thrilled with a four-year deal with Modano; he's already in his mid-30s. But, at least for the first two years of his contract, he'd be a Top-10 center in the league.

As long as he can still produce it would be fine with me. He really just needs to be team leader 1st and then All-Star center. He is just injured far too often.

EvilJester99 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hawks with a very good signing there...if $Bill is actually going to spend some money, I don't think I will know how to act or think about it. I am hoping the Hawks somehow bring Palffy and Pronger in...that would boost this team major like. I am not so sure about getting Madano.

That goes without saying... I think you're overrating him a bit, he's a 3rd liner at best, and average one. 100 PIMs and 25 points is what youre looking at. Also brutal on special teams. I don't know how much that's gonna help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to see the Hawks actually trying to ice a good team. Im finally excited hockey is back and can;t wait for it to start.

A Modano type signing along with another strong forward and another solid D-man and the Hawks will have a very nice team set to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a big name and when healthy he's a very good player who makes everyone else better. Plus signing a guy like this brings confidence to every player in the organization because this is a move you make to show that you have confidence in the team and that you are playing for the playoffs. Basically it raises the bar on expectations and to me, thats always a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapkomet Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 They weren't going to get Hatcher and they knew it. That's why they signed Zubov on Sunday for the $ and time they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they signed Zubov on Sunday for the $ and time they did. You were right, Kap. Looks like Modano will stay in Dallas. I hope the Hawks make their pitch to Forberg/Naslund. I'm not expecting them to get either, but it'd be nice for them to give their best shot at landing 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
