> my point is, i really dont think we are gonna be bringing in someone like Hossa etc. this idea that we are bringing some high-dollar winger in to play with crosby probly wont hapen IMO. atleast not with the signings we have ahead of us (malkin, staal, fleury etc). in saying that, i’d be happy with someone like ruutu if we got him for the right deal. id like to have brian campbell or cheechoo, but i think thats alittle more than we will end up getting. i guess we’ll see tho.

I have to agree 100%. We are going to have to pay some cash pretty soon…Maybe we can sign like a 3 mil/ year guy but much more than that will be pushing it. From what I hear once we get the new arena we will up our “internal cap” pretty close to the NHL cap…but that isnt until 2010 or 2011.
