Unreal how this guy keeps getting hurt. I think this is his last contract year.......I wouldn't re-up with him.....not with his injury history.

Martinek was re-up'ed for 2 more years last year, he's on the books till 2011.

bexlyspeed- 3rd round draft pick
Again. they should keep him forever because he is my favorite, i dont care if he plays 5 games a year. i hope he gets injured again so they can not trade him at the trade deadline. Garth will re up him again & again because there will not be anyone else to sign :)

RADEK FOREVER!

Bexly, you're not alone. I've talked to Garth about Radek particularly about him being the last of the eastern Euros in our lineup. I accused Garth of wanting only a mostly North American team with only non-eastern Europeans.

Garth likes him as he's a product of our draft, development and we've actually kept him all these years. But Radek is not going to be part of the core of this team because of his age and like someone else said, I hope he gets healthy and playing well when the trade deadline comes and we can get something for the future for him.

You'd get a low-end draft pick for him a 4th or 5th rounder for him--------that's it.

That's all he's worth to another team.

Is it spring training yet?
I couldn't stand Radek his first year but he has shut me up and has quickly become one of my fave isles. He reminds me of Kenny Jonnson (Even the injuries) LOL. Kenny had more offensive upside but Radek's calm demeanor reminds me of KJ a bit.

Radek Out 2-4 Weeks

According to Logan, Pock will replace him. Why not Skinner? :letssee:

Don't doubt Pock's ability to ELBOW his way back in the lineup. :lol:

Pock, Skinner, is it that big a difference? I know people have been on Pock a few times, but this isn't the type of decision that will win or lose games. Neither Skinner or Pock will stop Ovechkin and Kovalchuk.

Not necessarily. If you have a team that is in a legit shot at a cup run, but feels they are a 4th dman away from a serious run and want to add...at the deadline you could possibly get as high as a 2nd rounder. First...no way. Second...long shot. 3rd rounder...hell, didn't we get that much for MAB?

I could see a strong team that might be thin on the blueline like Pitt or the Crapitals giving up a second for him.
I miss these :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: and want more of them

Hate to say it but much as you've had it with Tamby (and I can't blame you), I've had it with Bruno. I think he's playing worse this year than he did 3 seasons ago.

Couldn't agree with you more, I4C. He has regressed and he wasn't that good to begin with.

Right On Time.
I can see where you are with Bruno but now with a healthy group of d-men and now with being in the dog-house, I don't think Bruno as a 6th D-Man is terrible. Last year there were spurts he played solid.

Also - He is a solid player (not great either) but man is there a softer D-Man than Radek?

You are right that neither is a match for AO or Kovachuk, but at least Skinner plays responsably in his own end. He's only 1 of 3 playes on the roster that's a +.

The club also announced that defenseman Radek Martinek (right shoulder) has been placed on injured reserve retroactive to last Wednesday. There was no morning skate today because of the back-to-back.
