What are they hoping Gonchar can do for them at this point?

Re: Around the League: Transactions
I've read he is interested in a 2 year contract. If they give him more than a year they are nuts. With a one year they could possibly trade him at the deadline.bhaw wrote:What are they hoping Gonchar can do for them at this point?

Can't see anyone giving him a 2 year deal at this point. He'll have to settle for a 1 year deal or head back to Mother Russia.

They should've changed the Stars name to the Geriatrics.

Gonchar and the Stars have reached agreement on a 2 yr deal, believed to be $5 mil per, $10 mil total. Pending signed paperwork.

Great news for dynasty league Gonch owners like this guy. He's still got something left in the tank. Fills a big need for D.

Well... the reduced cap sure didn't affect the market that much. GMs just shooting themselves in the foot. Gonchar at $5m per year would mean Letang is like $8M+

It's not carved in stone, but in spite of what has been said in past, I expect PHI is likely to use compliance buyout on Ilya Bryzgalov.

Re: Around the League: Transactions
Stars very happy that they got Sergei Gonchar. Felt they were over-working their D too much (Daley and Robidas mentioned by name), I had to force the name Goligoski into the conversation strangely. Feel that Gonchar will be a great mentor for Joe Morrow. Stars very happy with the depth at D that they've added recently. High-ranking source agreed with me that they've never adequately replaced Sergei Zubov and it has hurt the on-ice product.

So Stars could have Morrow, Gogo and Gonchar on the blue line next year if they so desired.
That is kind of funny.

Re: Around the League: Transactions
I'm in the crowd that thinks it's extremely likely they buy him out. Bryz is not an elite goaltender and is also a headcase by even goaltender standards. Flyers would probably rather throw a cheap contract at Timmay Thomas and go ahead and ditch The Bryz, who has a bad contract on a team that is going to need some serious cap relief.Lt.

Re: Around the League: Transactions
Made a joke about Bryzgalov being bought out at a recent hockey-heavy get together: people closest to the Flyers laughed the hardest and made eye contact. I'm a major social awareness guy and I got the feeling that I was on to something there. Just a weird hunch I got. Feel free to disregard. Hockeyyyiinnssidder, feel free to steal this and call it legit...

Re: Around the League: Transactions
I'm probably in the minority, but I would be interested in ditching MAF and signing a freed-up Bryz to a cheap two year deal to compete with Vokoun next year.
He's a head case (OFF the ice), but can certainly play.

Personally, I'd rather just keep Fleury if those were my only two options.

I'd rather have $3M or so of cap relief for other needs.
