Hey, I hope everybody had a great and safe 4th, as for the Devils, Eagle can I kill Lou now? Com'on Lou, Buffalo (who I posted about needing a defenseman and was offering Afinaganov) just traded 2 second round picks for Craig Rivet (who is older and makes more money then White at 3.5 mil for the next 3 years). What we couldn't even get a third rounder for White? I believe we could of gotten a second rounder only if Lou would of offered White. Then we would of had 3 more million in cap space. Then we could of went after a Demitra (likle FldevilFan said) or like Slapshot said a Shanny or Fedorov (I don't know if we needed another center unless Zajac was going in another trade - maybe with Gionta to bring back a REAL F'ING DEFENSEMAN that we really need!!!). Guys, I think Lou needs a wake-up call here. He's missing a good off-season. I don't want to start killing him again but I can't see how we start the season with the SAME defense as last year. He has to do something here. He can't just throw Zajac and Gionta for a defenseman at the end of the off-season because we don't have the depth to do that. I hope like somebody said before that Corrente gets a shot but thats to replace either a Greene, Mottau, Vishnevski or Brookbank not the top four guys. Fldevilfan, I would love a Demitra here. He can play both center and wing which is good in case we have to move Zajac or others for a defenseman but we need to move salary first. There are other teams (Ottawa and Tampa Bay) looking fo a defensive defenseman maybe Lou should contact some of these teams of course unless he thinks that last year's defense was just plain awesome!!!! .
