maybe he figured they would trade him if he asked nicelyOriginally Posted by tbo41fan

I'm sure Nashville spoke with Weber and his agent to find out exactly what the situation was. Could be that Weber just wanted to get paid and had to go through this to get it done...but that he also has no problem and enjoys staying in Nashville.
I'm thinking there is no way Nashville accepted the offer sheet without knowing if Weber would simply request a trade after the first year is up.
Well they really couldnt afford to not match it...imagine the drop in ticket sales

And what player remaining on the market is worth the money they would have needed to spend to reach the cap floor?
I meant they couldnt afford to not match it in terms of PR...fans losing suter AND weber in 1 offseason would KILL ticket sales

what?! It wouldnt hurt them in a few years if he got traded. They want to try to win now and correct some PR with losing Suter, if they lost both it could damage the bottom line. you logic is nil at best.
My logic on what? What you said doesn't disagree with my thoughts one bit and it also doesn't highlight my thought in what you quoted one bit. I have no idea what you are talking about right now...
im sure they dont give a rats ass if he would want a trade hence not knowing if he would request a trade. those things change from season to season with players.
They definitely care. He is a top Dman in the league and this is a small market team. They accepted the offer sheet bcuz it makes sense long term. If it is short term and they trade him, a team like the Preds is screwed bcuz of how front loaded the contract is.

Flyers re-sign Voracek to a 4 year $17mil deal
Pretty scary thought that Voracek gets $4.25mil a year. Stalberg wasn't very far behind him and there is no way the Blackhawks would be able to pay Stalberg around $4mil to stay if he puts up a similar year to the one he had last year.

1 year at $7mil for Semin and the Canes.
$7 million is an awful lot of cash but the fact that it's only one year makes it seem like a less-awful deal for Carolina.

I think it's a decent fit.
O beware...of Jealousy!
It is the green-eyed monster which doth mock
The meat it feeds on.
Bring on the Semen. Err....Semin.
damn canes
Pairing Semin up with one of the Staals could yield some nice rewards for the Canes.

they may be ok this year

Enstrom agrees to multi-year deal with the Thrashers. Should be interesting to hear the details once they are available.
Lol. Thrashers.

While I was sleeping did the Thrashers comeback as a franchise?
Pretty sure it was an intentional joke. Lol

I clearly thought that the Flames were still in Atlanta. My bad on that one. All I can do is ask for your forgiveness and hopefully move on.
