Well she starts by saying that she has been a hockey fan since she was 8 years old. Based on the quality of writing and information she presented.... that would make her about 9 years old currently. So lets give her a break.

stopped reading after "i grew up in california"

my guess is this guy

Bert knows you're talking about him, and it makes him flash that toothless grin.

Bertuzzi - Probable Apple Fritters - healthy scratch unless Bertuzzi is out. Link MD

Franzen's gonna score 10 touchdowns this season.

But come on, you have to give her some originality points for repeatedly using the term 'dead wings'. Never heard that one before... See, its funny. Its funny because it rhymes with Red Wings, which is the team she's talking about. Get it? Dead Wings?

Red Wings fans are voting for Howard because he is there, but the correct answer is King Henrik, and its not even close.

Tried to warn you not to read it... Since no one has posted it yet:

I didn't even read the article until now. As an aspiring journalist, I hope wherever I end up working will be thousands of miles away from this writer, as she would lower the intelligence level of the entire staff by her mere presence. What a crock of s***. The Red Wings are arrogant, and yet no examples. Red Wings fans are stupid, and yet no examples. Mike Modano a Wing? I guess this bimbo forgot her team didn't want him back. What a putz.

They actually allowed something that stupid to be posted? The ignorance of the whole post is ridiculous.

When has a live octopus ever been thrown onto the ice? Imagine sneaking that in under your pants!

No one. In today's era, goalies are overrated. Some of the biggest name goalies suck in the playoffs, while faceless jobbers are playing in the Cup Finals. Just about every team is finding good goalies out of the minors no one has ever heard of, and those goalies are doing just fine. If I was building a team, I'd concentrate on everything else first, and then the goalie. The days of needing a Hasek, Roy, Brodeur, Belfour, etc. to win the Cup ended after the lockout. Funny how so many people mentioned Luongo, who hasn't made Vancouver a shred better since he got there, and Brodeur, who hasn't had a good playoff since 2003.

Does this take into account Cap considerations? If I'm building a team, I'm sure as hell not putting 7 mil into my goalie when there are many perfectly capable goalies available for a third of that price. I'm going with the Wings system of signing goalies.

I'd think I'd take Kipper over Howard.... he's been the backbone in Calgary for years. I don't think there is a goalie in the league right now that has been ridden as hard for as long a Kipper has. On a good team he would be lights out!

1. Better players than your team 2. Better management than your team 3. Better fans than your team 4. Greater history than your team 5. In three words, better than you.

Maybe it was a Halloween promotion: if you came dressed up as an empty seat, your ticket was half price.

I don't think I've ever agreed with you so thoroughly on a point before... this could not be better stated.

Move Atlanta to Quebec, Phoenix to Winnipeg, Panthers to Hamilton... =)

Why is everybody so mad that he's suing? Out of all of the s***ty lawsuits in the US, this one's really not that bad. He could be in some tough times right now, hell most of us are. I'm tryin to go to u of m next year n if that happened to me you can bet your ass I would try to get a huuuuuge ******* scholarship lol. Also, if you sue the league it will just give them even more reason to punish the lil ******* drama queen... There's absolutely no reason for players to ever touch the fans, I don't care if they're bashing their face in or flicking their nose, its not something that fans should have to worry about.

Check and mate.

And for the first time this season the Leafs will lose a regular season game.

Once a week? I'll take it! esteef
