| Message | I dont really see the point of that type of deal if your not getting your original players back. It would seem that it would just be a standard trade between GM's. If the plan was to get your original players back I certainly wouldn't have announced those intentions publically. |

| Message | A question to Commish Brown and Expansion Director Peters. In an effort to screw over the expansion GM, could I (hypothetically) trade a player or two to another team for future considerations and then after expansion have players sent my way? A staggered deal like this would allow me to use another team's expansion protects. My original players would not return to my team. I don't have a deal in place but have a few ideas. |

| Message | I'm guessing the futures are based on Selanne possibly retiring? Looks like a good deal for both clubs. |

| Message | The deadline for deciding on either a pick or second forward will be Aug 17, the same deadline as protection round 2. The pick can be any first round pick that is in your possession. |

| Message | When is the deadline to announce if you will be giving up a 1st rounder instead of your 2nd expansion forward selection? Also, if you do choose to give up a 1st rnd pick instead of another expansion selection does the pick have to be your pick or can it be one that you have acquired via trade? Cam or Rob your input would be appreciated on these issues. |

| Message | I consider that one of my best trades ever too.. Backstrom, Kopitar a first rounder and a third rounder for those guys. Goon thought I was nuts trading Morris.. I actually took our expansion GMs advice on that one to dump Morris while he still had some value. Granted Savard lit it up, but in a couple years with Zubov out of the picture Nick, Anze and I will all go out for beers and have a good chuckle over that one.. We'll put drinks on Sandis's tab! |

| Message | by the way - what's with the inflated prices for these d men? Hamrlik is worth $5 mill a year? Unbelievable. Big Bert back with Burke - must make Goon smile. And hey - I still had 3 kids after I took that super blade to the crotch. |

| Message | actually it was both testies - and Duke - I wouldn't talk if I were you - I still consider my best trade ever the one with you (i.e. Savard, Zubov and Morris etc.) |

| Message | Maybe Rob should tell everyone how he is the one with the grapefruit sized left testy he got from some 8 year old in roller hockey. |
