Scott Niedermayer is close to signing a contract and could be in
the Devil lineup by this weekend. Niedermayer is willing to sign
a two-year deal worth $3.5 million a season... what a guy! The
club is still just offering $3.25 million per, but what's
$250,000 between friends?
New Jersey lost its season opener 2-1 in Chicago. After Patrik
Elias gave El Diablo a 1-0 lead in the first, Martin Brodeur
allowed an Eric Daze dump-in from center ice to squirt through
his pads to tie the game 1-1 at 18:46 of the second period. Doug
Gilmour then rose to the occasion in the third period, feeding a
perfect centering pass to Tony Amonte for the game-winner at
10:59. That's no way to treat your former mates.
Other game highlights included Sasha Lakovic getting involved in
three fights before receiving the automatic game misconduct. Not
wanting to lose his title as team goon, Krzysztof Oliwa got in
two fights of his own. All and all, it reminded me of my last
family reunion.
That's about all the big Devils news at the moment. We're still
looking for a New Jersey correspondent, so write to us if you're
interested. But before I go I'd like to express many fans'
feelings towards Doug Gilmour at the moment as only I can...
that's right, through Haiku.
Gilmour split for cash.
He then made winner of Hawks.
Hey, Gilmour... suck it!
