Title: Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne Sign in Colorado
Post by: Perfection on July 03, 2003, 11:43:05 AM: Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne each signed 1 year deals with Colorado. Kariya signed a deal worth $1.2 million, but he did turn down $6.2 million from the Ducks, & Selanne signed a deal worth about $6 million.

Post by: A-Trak on July 05, 2003, 12:20:15 AM: avs ain't going to win shit without any good goaltending. and curtis joseph is overrated - never plays well with good team (juss like in Detroit & also for the Canadian Olympic Team)

Post by: Perfection on July 05, 2003, 11:42:28 AM: If Colorado can get Mike Richter or Mike Dunham then they probably can win the cup because Richter and Dunham have proven that with a good team in front of them then they are two of the best goalies in the NHL. Also Colorado could try and get Martan Biron from the Sabres.

Post by: pappy on July 05, 2003, 01:12:58 PM: im a big mike richter fan, but he aint worth it now b/c he has had to be one of the most injury prone players in the nhl in the past 5 years
Title: Re:Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne Sign in Colorado
Post by: Perfection on July 05, 2003, 01:15:19 PM: It's not Richter's fault that a puck coming between 80-95mph hits him in the helmet and cracked his skull. Richter is still a goalie that can win you the cup.

richter has also had many problems with his groin

Post by: A-Trak on July 05, 2003, 01:40:39 PM: he always pulls his groin. especially whenever he does those insane split saves. he's probably the most flexiable/athletic goalie next to hasek.
Title: Re:Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne Sign in Colorado
Post by: Perfection on July 05, 2003, 03:28:35 PM: Richter hasn't had a groin injury in a log time. The last two seaons the injury was a concuison. And before that it was knee injuries after he jammed his leg against the post. During the Olympics he proved how good he can be with a good team in front of him and he didn't get injuried doing those split saves in the Olympics.
