Yep. they have all gone crazy. Never saw this before, really weird.
I tell you though your flyers look real good. cup good. you just gotta see next series if it's true or not because of the pens meltdown.

They should package Fleury in the deal and ship them off to Columbus for Nash, then try to trade for Vancouver or LA's backup goalie.

fleury has been the only penguin i've been able to tolerate for the past 5+ years (if ever). sucks he has to be the scapegoat, and i don't think he should be in any way judged on this series, which has proven to be one of the most unorthodox playoff series in recent memory. unloading him in the offseason would prove to be foolish.

i think brodeur's contract is up at the end of this season, and if the devils don't win anything this year, it would be interesting to see if he would sign a one year deal with a team that is going to be in serious contention. if parise lands elsewhere (rangers), i can see brodeur not re-signing with the devils. imagine him and fleury splitting the bulk of the workload in 2013? i think that could be an interesting veteran/youngster combo, especially during playoff time.

You think? I think Marty heads home to end career with the Habs if he does not sign with Devs.

i don't see marty leaving NJ. and if he were to...i really don't see him going to a team with a clear number 1.

i could see him going someplace that has a solid team where he would be the number one, but with a decent back up so that he only plays 45-50 regular season games.

tough to say. but if he is going to sign a one year deal with the habs to conclude his career in his hometown, why not just sign that one year deal with the devils and finish with the team you played your entire career for?

if he leaves NJ, he is going to a team that has a legit shot at a cup. habs are no where near that discussion.

penguins, canucks, flyers come to mind. hell, maybe even the blackhawks.

blackhawks would make sense

the other teams listed have a clear number one....well...maybe not vancouver, but they have solid goaltending

I don't think Marty leaves NJ. you can tell that he likes the idea of playing for one team for his whole career.
