Also pretty sure that The Habs will somehow try and say he isn't worth 6 million followed by a matching of the offer sheet someone signs him for 7 years at 8.5 million. | ||

Devallano has a great hockey mind. http://www.broadstreethockey.com/2014/6/23/5835490/hockey-hall-of-fame-2014-eric-lindros-peter-forsberg nice to see Hasek, Forsberg and Burns make it into the Hall of Fame today. its nice to see Lindros was rejected. Had Lindros showed up in Sault Ste. Marie and Quebec City he might be in. he angered guys like Branch and Bowman by acting like he was bigger than the game. the OHL is Branch's little empire and no one is going to screw with him. its taken 25 years but Branch is getting his revenge. Lindros and Forsberg have similar career numbers. Forsberg was a big part of 2 gold medals and 2 Cups. Lindros was a bit player on 1 gold medal team and Canada did a lot of losing whille Lindros was in his prime and anointed the leader of Team Canada as Captain. the 1991 Canada Cup wasn't really a best-on-best event with all the Soviet-Bloc countires economically crippled. Forsberg played nice with the NHL hierarchy and Lindros did not. I think Lindros' only hope is to donate another $5 million to another Ontario hospital to try to bribe his way in. | ||

This year was a hard nut to crack, though Blake and Modano over Lindros is meh. Esp as second and first year players respectively. I think he gets in next year though. Burns is def overdue. | ||

It's a friggin crime Burns has taken as long as he has, and I don't know why they didn't let him in the last chance he had before died, it's retarded. | ||

however, they traded a top six forward for a top nine one. meh meh. umberger can be useful, but i probably would like to pay hartnell to score more than pay umberger almsot to the same to do something you could get a plugger to do | ||

![[image loading]](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bq1EwRyCIAAMkbU.png:large) Rumours in Edmonton have involved names like Markov, Umberger, Matt Greene, etc. So happy to see these players signing elsewhere rather than fleecing Edmonton for Clarkson money. edit: For those interested in a fancy-stat comparison of Lolmberger and Hartnell: http://www.extraskater.com/players/dashboard?players=3,247 | ||
