Signings

The exclamation mark is officially out. Clemmensen's out, and he's been replaced by kevin weekes. More Ranger trash. Now, If you've read nearly anything I've written about Lowell, you know how much I dislike Frank Doyle. I'd rather have him warming the bench for a lot less $$ than the 1.375 he'll be getting over two years. Needless to say, I won't be a Devils fan when he plays- unless we're playing the Rangers or Flyers.
Let's take a look at his stats from last season, shall we?
GP: 14 W: 4 L:6 OTL: 2 GAA: 3.39 SV%: .879
I'm sure you're all up to date with Clemmensen's 6 games, 1 win, 1 loss and 2 shoot out losses. He had a GAA of 3.15 and a SV% of .889. Being that it's almost gaurenteed that Clemmer would probably be willing to take the minimum, I'd take him any day.

Oh, and nothing else on the Souray rumors.




First off, happy Fourth. Now, down to business. The Rachunek rumors have been confirmed by both TSN and the Devils. There are rumors floating around about us signing Sheldon Souray, but it's yet to be confirmed by a reliable source. Weather this is true or not, our D's gonna be pretty hot next season. As hot as an ice cube..


Oh my. Lukowich to the Lightning for three years. So our defense is Oduya, White, Greene, Matvichuk and possibly
Rachunek (TSN has yet to confirm us signing him, so I'm not entirely sure).

Update: 20.4 million over the 6 seasons.
Finally, a big name! The Devils have signed Danuis Zubrus for 6 years, with financial terms not disclosed yet.


Well, Oduya signed the same deal as Greene, 2 years at 600,000 per, and I heard Janssen will be getting 550,000 for I don't konw how long. We also signed ex Ranger Karel Rachunek for one season for 1.5 mil. The Pens got Sykora for two seasons, so my hopes of getting him are gone. I'll keep updating as I find out more.


Here's one Deivls signing- Oduya has been resigned for I don't know how long or for how much.
Update: Nothing on the $$ or the length, but it's not on TSN's list of signings, so I don't have a clue as to what's going on.



Talk about bleeding red and black- Gomez signed a 7 year deal with the Rags for $7.35 mil. per season. Well, I hope they enjoy over paid players- then again, they must, going back to that Holik deal. How nice would it be to see Janssen pull one on him next season? Maybe Rupp, White, or Matvichuk or Clarkson. Anyone. If you ask me, it's be worth someone getting susended over. See ya, Gomer, and I hope you're as good as you were here there.



Brian Rafalski has signed a 5 year $30 mil. contract with the Red Wings. So as of right now, our defense consists of White, Greene and Matvichuk. That seems promising. No word on Gomez of the other UFA's, but I'll keep you posted.
