I think Hextall must have incriminating pictures of Lombardi or someone else in the Kings front office. What a great deal for a guy who tore it up in the AHL playoffs last season.

It's really not a bad deal for LA. Schenn is a decent 3rd pairing guy, and they needed one since Greene is done. As for Vinny, I dunno why they would take him. Maybe just to help Hextall out since he said he will be retiring. Depth I guess?

I remember hearing how high Hextall was on Schenn when he was assistant GM in LA, but I thought that Schenn was Brayden.

I'd trade him next (depending on the return obviously)

Ha! That's pretty funny.  I was just explaining the whole Vinny thing to my wife over a glass of wine,  and why one who's made 10's of millions wouldn't retire and go have fun.  And how we'd be stuck for however many more freaking years.....   Guess we'll be discussing  A Mac next time ;)

Great for the Flyers though, very surprised, and perhaps this Weal kid can help out on wing.

Well, I'll admit, I thought the Flyers would end up taking back half his salary after 2 years to send him back to Tampa. LA is close to Tampa, right?

It's only an inch or two on my globe. Pretty close.

LA took VLC (sucks) for his defensive prowess.

no, apparently they took him because he sounds hungry and wants to prove people wrong. He said the same thing about Mike Richards. So when Vinny fails are we going to get another over-dramatic article from Lombardi saying that he trusted Vinny but was lied to?

What do you bet this clears space to trade any one of Provlov, Sanheim or Ghost to Columbus for Johansen before Poile decides whether to wake up. 

Johansen has already been traded to NSH for Jones

Just tell him Weal is a older young right handed lefty tall short European from North America. He'll be thrilled.

AND we get out of a buyout penalty AND get a 3rd AND a player?

I'm gonna be pissed when I wake up.

Weak is a minor leaguer.  With he limits on "vets" in the minor leagues, we may have to bring up MacDonald more permanently.

Weal has yet to play an NHL game. I don't think he qualifies as a "vet"

I believe you'll see Sam Gagner back up before MacDud
