...And they sign him to a 4-yr contract. Things are getting mighty interesting in the Northwest, which is the most-talented division, top-to-bottom, in the NHL, IMO. Last year's have-nots, the Canucks and Wild, are packing on some talent.
The Wild added Demitra, although they gave up a highly-prized prospect to get him. Since he's Gaborik's buddy, maybe pretty-boy Marion will sign for less than the Franchise-Player amount he's been demanding (and hasn't yet earned). Maybe having Demitra around makes him into Franchise Player.
Now the penurious Wild owernship cabal needs to authorize the signing of Chara, and we'll have 50% of the starting lineup of the Slovak National team on our roster. Whoo-hoo! :w00t:
Closed-circuit to DeeBye: Domi is done. Alas!
