I'm not sure why, really, but Nashville sure has a lot of Edmontonians in their lineup.raventalon40https://www.blogger.com/profile/09882869475576224211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1489736415740665478.post-33793577637294611552008-10-15T15:24:00.000-06:002008-10-15T15:24:00.000-06:00I would imagine his asking price is around what he...I would imagine his asking price is around what he made in Montreal, but lower, since Montreal found it more towards their enterprise to do without him.<BR/><BR/>Furthermore, the fact that he hasn't signed on with a team yet means that:<BR/><BR/>1) he doesn't have any takers/believers<BR/>2) he's asking for too much<BR/>3) he's considering retirement<BR/><BR/>I think that #1 is the most reasonable conclusion why he hasn't signed on, and as the season progresses he will find a home.raventalon40https://www.blogger.com/profile/09882869475576224211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1489736415740665478.post-40533065126456415382008-10-15T14:02:00.000-06:002008-10-15T14:02:00.000-06:00What's with all the Preds?

Is there any word on his asking price? <BR/><BR/>Also, why in the hell isn't Brodziak centering the third line? He kills penalties, so clearly he faces the other teams best offensive stars - even if it is on the second unit. He had a decent FW% last season, and was 67% against Colorado. I wish MacT would play him on the third line! He seems capable of doing so - IMOAddicted-to-oilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15356004110516567943noreply@blogger.com
