Read before you post a reaction dumba$$. I said it probably would never happen in the article. Don’t post a reaction until you read.

Are you loco hombre???

If the Bruins ever gave up Joe Thornton for Sir-Gay Fedorov the B's fans would burn down the rink and string the GM up by the cajones.

I am a huge Detroit fan, and I've never been a fan of his. He only shows up two months of the season, and coasts the rest of the year. He played terribly in the game against the Avs, and he hasn't played well in a while.

Fedorov is an amazing talent. He should dominate the game night in, night out. He has the skills of Peter Forsberg, but he doesn't have any heart to go along with it. Fedorov knows he can command his salary, so he won't go all out anymore.

Fedorov will be kept by the Wings. I would rather see the Wings trade him for another great center, maybe Mats Sundin or Joe Thornton, even though I don't think that would ever happen. Much to my dismay, he'll be a Wing for the remainder of his career.

Well may be he will. Yes Federov is probably the Wings #1 guy, but will he be tomorow? maybe not. I think the Wings #1 guy tomorrow will be Henrik Zetterberg, but he is not today… But some time you have to take a chanse and roll the dice. Maybe Federov will be traded when Y-man retires then they have to put the spotlight on Zetterberg and hopefully he will come thrue for them. I mean sone Cuju will retire as well, on the other hand Stefan Liv will replace him so thers no worrys on the golie front.

Federov is soooo greedy. I’d have him shot but if that can’t happen it would still be nice to see him with a paycut

I think he will stay in Detroit. Unless Detroit can dump him on some other team for a no-brainer of a deal. This is really a tough scenario to try to play out, I guess it would all depend on what they could possibly get in return. If he makes it clear he is leaving at the end of the year they would be dumb not to try to trade him. Why would they risk losing him and gaining nothing.

I am shocked that there haven't been any Fedorov to the Leafs postings yet.....I thought they would have been frontrunners for sure. Then they can put him on a line with Kovalev and Nolan. Word also has it that Gretzky will be a leaf by the trade deadline.

He stays in Detroit 95%

or he goes to the Rangers 4%

or he goes to the Islanders 1%

Those are the only teams that *might* pay him the money and that is only if the Islanders could dump Yashin or the Rangers could dump Bure or Lindros or Holik.

Actually...

"Instead they heard about it from reading the newspapers in the morning."

Actually after getting their quotes they then went to Dave Lewis and a few others for comments and reactions. They knew about the comments long before they appeared in the paper.
