Drury/Gomez
I apologize for not being more up to date on things, not a lot of time...
Anyways, the NYR snagged Drury AND Gomez to major deals. TBL anyone? I don't want to sound like a downer or jealous. If the B's got these two I'd be doing cartwheels...but at what price? You are going to pay Scott Gomez 7+ million per for 60 points! 13 goals...47 assists. Wow, seems like a 7 million guy to me. NOT!
Chris Drury, a good player, but 6.5+, no thanks. This is a guy who will score 15-25 and assist 20-40 a season, at best. His days in Buffalo, that entire team had good stats. Can you convert that to another team? No.
Same goes for Briere. I mean this cap hinders the team for years.

Not a good sign looking towards next year's free agent crop either. With these two getting what they got players that are REALLY worth the 7+ million will be asking for insane money. I think these two deals took the B's out of potentially landing a any second tier talent. Kind of makes the deal Savard signed seem cheap, especially when people were ripping the B's for giving him $5 million per.
