Havlat in the Hizzy

In less than 2 months on the job, Wild GM Chuck Fletcher did something Dougie Risebrough couldn’t get himself to do in 10 years: sign a top free agent. After being spruned by Marian Gaborik, the Wild went to the next best available forward and signed Martin Havlat to a 6 year contract. How refreshing is this? Risebrough would’ve lost out on Gaborik and just called it a day, saying “they gave it their best shot.” Instead, Fletch gets agressive and signs Havlat. Nice work indeed.

Next up: hopefully sign a good defenseman along the lines of Rob Scuderi or Ruslan Fedotenko and get the deal with Saku done.

The replica handbags was designed to compliment the luggage. The designer replica handbags was known for its classic lines and designer handbags style. Darker, richer leathers were used to make a simple, elegant statement. The designer bags products can be found in specialty shops, larger department stores and on line.
