The Gretzky trade had alot more to do with that than his wife.<BR/><BR/>LA can most likely thank her for Gretzky coming here, though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1151426950606121592006-06-27T09:49:00.000-07:002006-06-27T09:49:00.000-07:00First Janet Jone and now Lauren Pronger.

So go ahead, be selfish and put your husband in a bad position and leave a city heart broken and very angry at your husband! You won't be hearing the cheers you would have expected when Pronger steps on the ice in Edmonton next!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1151404455987158552006-06-27T03:34:00.000-07:002006-06-27T03:34:00.000-07:00LA could probably acquire the orbs for some sort o...LA could probably acquire the orbs for some sort of package that figured around Frolov. I think the Oilers would also want a defensemen of some sort and a fairly good prospect as well.<BR/><BR/>The asking pice the Oilers brass has floated to the media was havlat, phillips and Lee (apparantly a good prospect Ottawa has). I think for LA that would mean Frolov, a top 4 defensemen (Visnovsky, Corvo, Sopple) and O'Sullivan or another potentially good prospect. Sopple might be attractive as he's well known here after his long stint with the Canucks and he's from Saskatoon which isn't terribly far away. Although truthfully Corvo and Visnovsky would likely be better options, Oiler fans are a bit paranoid about people hating Edmonton at the moment and who doesn't like localish players.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand in return you possibly get the most dominant defensemen in the game today..because for some reason or another his wife has demanded he leave Edmonton and your can take your pick of the various charitable to uncharitable explainations for that. But I get the impression Lowe will simply wait until he gets what he considers a fair offer to make a move.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08628728347599057479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1151182781217962762006-06-24T13:59:00.000-07:002006-06-24T13:59:00.000-07:00I wonder if the King's offer of Garon, Frolov and ...I wonder if the King's offer of Garon, Frolov and Brown for Luongo was true. It pales in comparison to what the Panthers got from the Canucks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
