Good luck. Every team knows your trying desperately to get rid of this guy, or your going to buy him out. So what is stopping them from asking for a king's ransom in return?

It doesn't surprise me at all that the Blues are asking for extra prospects, I'm sure other teams are doing the same.

The Blues have offered the Sens one of those Motivational Poster's in exchange for Emery.
The poster is of Wayne Gretzky in a BLUES uniform. The caption reads...
"COMMITMENT"
Murray thinks this is a great deal as he has failed to comprehend the paradoxical message.

Believe me Murray .... all trade options are already exhausted.
How he could possibly think there's much of a deal to be had is beyond comprehension. Then again there are some other idiots out there.

I'm sure this guy is going to go over huge with JD

This guy is a waste of talent.

BGM...you really shouldn't wake up this early. You are clearly suffering from sleep deprivation this morning. This article is about Emery....so I have to point out the last word in your comment is out of context.
Sorry...have a coffee on me dude.

OK...how's this? this guy is a waste of semen

This guy has SOME talent. Last seasons line:
58GP 33W 2.47 G.A.A 5 shut-outs .918% save percentage.
This seasons he had a .890 save percentage in 31 games. He just doesnt have the pre-requisite work ethic!!

Emery has talent, you don't lead a team to the Cup finals in you don't. His problem is in his head. But the Sens help make him into what he's become. Two seasons ago when he was fighting Andrew Peters and getting pulled over by the cops it was just "Ray being Ray", because the Sens were winning. Then the Sens decide to quit trying and its Ray's fault? He's still the same goalie that got'em to the Finals, he just has a shittier team in front of him.

That said tho, I can't see him ever being the #1 goalie on a Cup-contending team. He needs to go to STL or LA where they aren't expected to win and there's no media.

A mere formality. He was gone since he started messing with the Sens. Now it will be made official!

Does anybody in the NHL want this troubled soul? They should call the Islanders. If they're trying to get Yashin back, they'll take anybody!

Emery is a good goalie at best. I'm not saying this cannot change but when you lack work ethic and the desire to do what is best for the team you may be worth the 2.5 million not to play.

I'm surprised the Sens haven't checked on the availability of Steve Valiquette. Gerber certainly isn't going to carry this team.

Spezza for Luongo

Spezza for Luongo, Sho Nuff?

No way! I wouldn't take four Spezzas for Roberto Luongo! He's one of a kind!

spezza for a bag of pucks (used)...

Maybe they can buy him out this year and try to entice him back next year. If nothing else it'll cause disbelief and amusement for the Fannation.

I don't really want to see this guy on the Blues, but Toivenen was so bad last year, I guess JD figures he has to get another goalie that can play. I'd rather they try to develop a couple of the kids they have, and get a less-dvisive backup for the short term

Spezza for Luongo, Sho Nuff?

No way! I wouldn't take four Spezzas for Roberto Luongo! He's one of a kind!

Even if Spezza plays the way he's supposed to (and I hope he does, I think the NYR may go after him!) Luongo is a terrific goalie. We know this because Milbury traded him.

BETTMAN S***S

with an ego the size of emerys he should be a wide receiver in the nfl.

Send him to my Kings, isn't that where goalies go to die?
