I don't mind the firing of Tallon but to replace him with a guy without experience at being a GM, I think is a bit much. Then again I suppose he will be relying a lot on his dad too...so who knows.

I like the sounds of this ....Tallon says Keith will get his reward http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=305684

QUOTE (SuperSteve @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 10:02 PM) I could see the true comment being 'top line potential" and that could give you Buff and Barker. I feel like you're reading my mind though. Keep in mind though this is another Ek rumor... I just noticed it myself. lol. So it will probably not happen anyway but still interesting to discuss.

QUOTE (SuperSteve @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 09:58 PM) I would have brought up Barker but I agree about him not being a top liner plus he just signed a new deal. My logic is Keith will be up soon and maybe they don't think they can afford him and Kane and Toews. Trade him now where they can get huge value. Sharp would have been the forward I brought up but he just fits so well here and seems like someone they'd have to keep. Maybe Buff? He played like a top two liner forward in the playoffs. No Kane, Toews, Sharp, Hossa, Bolland so who else? Gotta be Buff or Sharp. The top line players part might be wishful thinking for Montreal as well...or their idea of "top line" is different than ours.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 09:53 PM) And what exactly would the Hawks be getting back? I'm tired of Eklund. This is speculation I seen on Stuy's board..just a posters trade idea more so...Sharp and Barker for Plekanec and O'Byrne?

QUOTE (SuperSteve @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 09:50 PM) They mention Sopel on the site but he isn't a top line player. He'd be a third line defenseman on a lot of teams at best. Maybe Keith. As for the forward.. um I couldn't even try to speculate. I am thinking Barker and Sharp....not exactly top line guys....but I couldn't imagine who else they would deal..

http://gohabs.freeforums.org/eklund-says-t5981.html "Meanwhile, the Canadiens are talking to the Blackhawks about a deal that would send "two top line players, one foreward and one d-man" to Montreal."

Thanks guys!!

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 07:47 PM) I'm sure it's DT getting canned, which would be fine by me. I wouldn't doubt it...odds that Bowman Jr. takes his spot??

Its Eklund and he is normally wrong about everything.

Didn't they say he was drunk and possibly had a head injury?? There is no way she could have killed him like that if he wasn't. IMO

I think Getz will do himself good by trying to slap the ball into the ground more often and use his speed to get on base. He tends to hit too many fly balls.

Ump must have realized he has dinner reservations somewhere.....

Nice work Bacon

AJ was on the afternoon saloon saying how Walk wanted him to start watching more film on pitchers and he said he never use to do that. He started to and started to struggle... now he has stopped watching film and has been hitting much better of late....

Man Danks going to pull a Clayton Richard here.. not even because he will be damn lucky to get out of the 1st....

Well this is a great start to a big series....

Man I can see getting beat by a hit but walking in runs is just terrible...get your head out of your ass Danks

I agree she is cute but not Hot...

Pics would help.

"We were late filing, something we haven't done in the past," Tallon said after the third day of prospects camp at Johnny's Ice House. "For a couple reasons we were a little late. We should have filed earlier. It'll never happen again." Tallon admitted the club was embarrassed by the front-office miscue and took the blame for it. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/hockey/blac...-070809.article

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 04:54 PM) NOt unless Sopel has a two way contract... Good point....I am not sure on his contract.
