Tampa signed Mark Recchi?

Question

Hahhahahahha - pathetic! Do this team actually have a plan??????

Answer 1

I think it's a dcecent move. I need more details (ie: terms). Anything >1yr 1mil is bad

Answer 2

Pittsburgh South! How many former Penguins do they have now?

Malone, Roberts, Hall, Recchi, Ouellet, am I missing anyone? lol.

ADD: You're right!!! Sorry. It's been a long day, and I'm multitasking right now. lol

Answer 3

Am I the only one who sees this as a good move?

Recchi brings experience to a team full of kids.  Yea they have alot of Penguins, I bet your team wanted them just as bad.

Recchi brings a cup win and alot of knowledge.  He is not the best player but i think he will bring something to the team.

Answer 4

Technically Kate you missed one, not that he was a Penguin for long but Andre Roy is a member of Pittsburgh South.

Answer 5

It's funny how almost all the former Pens are going there!

Answer 6

NO.. I agree Habs Fan....

They are signing people just to sign them. They need D and goalies, not old guys!

Answer 7

No

Answer 8

am I the only one who sees the Bolts as a wannabe version of the 80s Oilers teams? Run-and-gun, no D and hanging the goalies out to dry?

Answer 9

Maybe they should see if they could get Hextall to come out of retirement, I mean if they're going for a 'old penguins' team....

Answer 10

Wow what's their average age now?  What a waste of money on their part they should be trying to sign a defenseman not 40 year old wingers.

Answer 11

yes to be called the  " Tampa Bay X-Penguins"

Answer 12

See what a little cap space can do for you?

I think the plan is, create the biggest dust cloud possible, hope for the best, and get your resume together for February, if you're the GM.

Answer 13

Can you list a source for this? i cant find any info anywhere confirming the signing

Thanks for the link.  being an American i forgot to check TSN

Thanks dude!!!!

Answer 14

I am sorry TBL, but I am officially starting getting scared....even more scared than I am of the freaking crazy plastic Burger King faced guy.  I need a hug and then some.

Answer 15

Congrats to the Tampa Bay Penguins for another signing of a forward.  Now, seriously, who is playing defense for that team?

Answer 16

The Lightning are making a LOT of moves this offseason... I guess they think they can achieve the same success as the Penguins by acquiring half of their 07-08 roster! =S But you're all right, they've got no defensemen (who needs 'em when you've got 5 forwards? haha)
