A tear for today

What a sad day this is.

I thought it would be coming, but it doesn't make it any easier to swallow. I wonder why Sykora isn't going? He is unrestricted this summer. Anyone know why Nilsson isn't in the NHL after a decent year last year?

Hey hey as a flames fan this is great. There are rumors he is just a rental player for the Islanders until summer time where he may sign again with the Oilers, but who knows??

Yah, Lowe is going to get crucified at the game. Wish I could be there just to see that!

As much as he will get crucified, this is about Smyth wanting more money. Apparently he was offered 5.5million/year, and didn't think it was enough. Pathetic!

He is making 3.5m this year, and they originally offered 5million last week, and it went up to 5.5million today. Smyth wanted 6million. He pretty much said he didn't want to be here.

Sorry to say guys but when he is your franchise player, he is worth 6 mill.
