It just occurs to me that Warrener looks like he's going to cry over losing that puck. Just sayin'

You know, the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. They had something like $2 million with which to find a reasonable top-six forward, and Bertuzzi is exactly the kind of player Keenan loves.

Granted, I still think he's washed up and useless, but for one year, why not take the chance that he can do something with Jarmoe?

Wow. The Flames really make it easy to hate them.

Looks like there's an even newer cocksucking SOB, (one who deserves the label much, much more):

we're too good on defense now because we picked up one guy and traded two?

We're better on defensive because we mad a qual/quan swap that upgraded Pitkanen to Visnovsky at the minimal expense of Matt Greene. We can use an upgrade, but I don't think Boyle fills a need and I don't think Lukowich is an upgrade.

It's a good move for the Flames, and because of that, doubly sucks for the Oilers, but if he does return to Earth (which seems likely), it won't exactly be a heartbreaker. He'll just be a tough SOB to play against, and it's not like there aren't enough of those in other sweaters around the League.

2008-07-03T00:59:00.000-06:00

the Oil fucked up on this one as the rummor is that they offer huggy bear (stortini) 1.1M/year. Dont blame him for leaving and will miss him as a Oiler. Dont think he wanted to leave but had no choice to do so.

I liked Glencross, and now here he goes playing for the Flames. Okay so yeah they're kind of his home team, but come on now. There are two feelings I have about this trade and which one I feel depends on exactly how this went down. If Lowe let GlenX go because he was too preoccupied with Hossa then I shan't be to impressed with Lowe, but if GlenX turned down a similar contract from Edmonton in

given that his favorite movie is 8 seconds and his favorite band is nickelback (i only remember it because i almost pissed myself laughing when i saw the interview)...i can also see why the slack jawed yokel would prefer to live in the city to the south. i'm sure he will be seen in cowboys sans shirt by the end of the

metrognome's clearly never heard of an own goal.

I liked Glencross, and 1ishMM a year is reasonable, but I can see where he'd prefer it from Calgary than Edmonton.

2008-07-02T17:26:00.000-06:00

Apparently the deal is for about 1.1 or 1.2M a year.

All Glencross has to do for me to like him is be better than Marcus Nilson or Wayne Primeau. That can't be very hard. And, as you mention, at least he won't be scoring on us anymore.

Between Glencross and Rene Bourque, I'm having visions of Fernando Pisani standing next to Darryl Sutter next summer holding a Flames jersey and laughing maniacally while lightning flashes in the background.

2008-07-02T14:53:00.000-06:00

I'd love to see the Oilers go after Nolan, but at this point all I care about is Le GG. If he ends up in Calgary, I'm never watching hockey again. Seriously.

Flames "saw him good."

He can't sustain Kovalchuk-ian and Ovechkian shooting percentages forever.

Remember when Mike Morrison seemed like a really good goaltender?

2008-07-02T13:30:00.001-06:00

Meh. They got a bunch of somewhat cheaper bubble players for the fourth line.

I feel like too much of Glencross has been built up from the 20 games he played really well in late last season.

2008-07-02T13:30:00.000-06:00

I wanted Curtis Glencross to stay here.

Now I want his face to have a meeting with a puck delivered by a Sheldon Souray slapshot.

That is all.

2008-07-02T13:24:00.000-06:00

Unless Lowe fucked up and decided he needed to keep as much money on the table as possible for Hossa, I can't imagine why we didn't sign him if that's all I took.

My only guess is, and others have said this, Glencross is going to be a second line forward by default in Calgary.

2008-07-02T13:04:00.000-06:00

The Herald site was saying the deal is three years, $3.2M, which is so reasonable you have to wonder why the Oilers couldn't get it done.

Haven't seen that confirmed at all yet.
