siouxforeverbaby Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Robbie is 30 or 31 years old....big difference. I'm not saying Mario should hang out in NA for the next 5-7 year...I'm saying give it 1-3 years before going overseas. I have buddies who did the same thing....you wait 3-4 years before going over there (granted my buddies had a little more hockey talent than Mario though). Robbie just turned 30. Mario will turn 25 in June. Quote
jodcon Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Toews with the first goal at Colorado. Colorado answers with 3 goals, lead 3-1 halfway through the second...Hawks streak in jeopardy. Quote
jodcon Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 And now 5-1, looks like the streak might be history. Quote
AZSIOUX Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Parise with 2g 1a so far. So strong around the net Quote
Gma loves hockey Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 It was nice to see Chris Porter as the 3rd star of the Blues/Sharks game tonight. He had a goal and +2. Oshie left in the second period with an upper body injury. Quote
MissSioux85 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Per Mike Russo (Star Tribune), the MN Wild traded Chay Genoway to the Washington Capitals This actually makes me quite happy because I don't think the Wild gave him much of a chance. By no means do I expect him to be an NHL regular, but I would have liked to have seen him play a few more games with the big club to see what he can do. Quote
82SiouxGuy Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Michael Russo is reporting that Chat Genoway is being traded to Washington for a seventh round draft pick in 2014. Quote
UND95 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 I think that is a good move for Genoway. MN has too much invested in their D to give a free agent a real shot, which makes sense. I thought Chay has looked very good in the games he has played in the NHL, so hopefully he gets a shot to play more in Washington. Quote
MissSioux85 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Also, the Wild has traded former University of North Dakota defenseman Chay Genoway to the Washington Capitals for a conditional 2014 seventh-rounder. He will report to Hershey. After the Brett Clark signing yesterday, this puts the Wild back to 48 of a maximum 50 contracts. This allows the Wild more flexibility to either sign college free agents maybe or add players at the trade deadline. Fletcher said the Wild had 10 defensemen in Houston, meaning four healthy scratches a night. This gives Genoway a chance to move on. http://www.startribune.com/sports/blogs/Russos_Rants.html Quote
watchmaker49 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Michael Russo is reporting that Chat Genoway is being traded to Washington for a seventh round draft pick in 2014. 7th round draft pick? Looks like no one puts any real value on him. Like when Costner said in Bull Durham, "I'm the player to be named later." Quote
yzerman19 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 7th round draft pick? Looks like no one puts any real value on him. Like when Costner said in Bull Durham, "I'm the player to be named later." Calvin Laloosh Quote
yzerman19 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 ...well Costner was Crash Davis, but Calvin Laloosh rules... Quote
Big A HG Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Chay got away with his size in the college game...I just can't see him getting away with it long-term in the NHL. If I were a GM, I'd either consider acquiring him as a forward or not at all, personally. I like Chay, but he's just not an NHL type player. To get a 7th round pick for an undrafted guy like Genoway is a pretty fair deal for MN. Quote

Off to Europe in a year for Chay and nice paychecks. He would be stellar playing in Europe. Quote

He would be stellar playing in Europe. A 7th round pick is a 7th round pick. Yeah, you're not getting elite talent necessarily, but why even have a 7th round of the draft if you get nothing from it? What were the Wild supposed to get for a guy like him? Quote

Yeah, you're not getting elite talent necessarily, but why even have a 7th round of the draft if you get nothing from it? What were the Wild supposed to get for a guy like him? Evidently exactly what he was worth. I wonder who will finish paying his salary the rest of the season and next? A conditional 7th round pick. Which really means the Wild did not want him and Washington got him for free. Quote
UND95 Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 One never knows on those late round picks, Henrik Zetterberg was taken in the 7th round, 210th overall pick, and that has worked out well for Detroit. Mind you, not the norm by far, but hidden gems are out there. Quote

By no means do I expect him to be an NHL regular, but I would have liked to have seen him play a few more games with the big club to see what he can do. Best news possible for Chay. Get on a team that will give you a fricken chance. Wish that would've been the wild. Quote
SiouxScore Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Best news possible for Chay. Get on a team that will give you a fricken chance. Wish that would've been the wild. Just never really fit with the Wild, they pretty much already had what he can do. Good for him to get a fresh start and hopefully a chance to get up with the Caps, not real sure on their D situation and how he fits but I would guess better than he did with the Wild. Quote
