Elias to Explore Free Agency

Here is the latest news on Devils' star, Patrik Elias.
Quote:
"If it's right, I want to stay, obviously," Elias said Tuesday after the Devils gathered one final time this season for a team picture. "It's just that I am in a situation where I can take advantage of it.
"But we'll see"

Re: Elias to Explore Free Agency

But Elias has a better value than Mogilny. I think Elias will stay wherever he ends up.

Now, now blueandwhite girl cut the kid a break...he is realtively new...lets let him catch up on the reading...

MJHMarc, go back through all the old Toronto posts and you will see what blueandwhite girl is trying to say...

Just for you blueandwhite girl, I am going to cross my fingers and hope that you get Elias...



The Devil went up to Toronto
He was lookin' to make a deal
He was in a bind
'Cause the amount he had in mind
Was more then he could steal

When he came upon the Leaf's GM

making some trades that were really hot
And the Devil jumped
Up on a hockey pond stump
And said boy let me tell you what

Now you make some pretty good trades boy
But give the Devil his due
I'll bet a ton of goals
Against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you

The boy said my name's Johnny (Ferguson)
And it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet
And you're gonna regret
'Cause I'm the best there's ever been...


(with apologies to Charlie Daniels...and to be continued)

Re: Elias to Explore Free Agency

Just being smart to MJH.
Love the song.
We've already used all the appropriate headlines anyway-
Deal With A Devil, etc.
The papers wouldn't know what to say this time around.

Re: Elias to Explore Free Agency

I never said he would end up in Toronto, blueandwhite. You said, "please let the leafs grab him, please let the leafs grab him...".

I was just talking about how since Elias is the better player he wouldn't get traded after he signs a mega-million dollar deal. He would stay where he ends up (unlike Mogilny who has been all around town). Elias stays in one place for many years (like New Jersey).

Most likely, he will stay in Toronto.

Yeah, I know...but I got to watch out for my boy MJH, I got him down for a rookie of the year award... ...got to keep him away from the boards where your fiesty Tucker-esque postings will get him...

When the time comes, I will supply the Toronto papers with the appropriate headlines...

oh gee I know - I was the one who said, let the Leafs grab him.
I was looking forward, maybe, and thinking if we ever did get him, that's when he might start to go downhill. a la mogilny (although we got a couple good games out of him first).

Re: Elias to Explore Free Agency

It would have to be the moment when we started to care too much.
Does Dougie Gilmour want to retire in toronto? come on home. Wendell? you too.
Somewhere after Tiger, we got soft.
Soft and stupid.

Can't you settle for starting a "Senior League" out there...then you can say, "sure come home, play in our Senior League"...
