f*** boston

Mursak is an effective checker with speed and work ethic to match Conner's, but better skill. Emmerton is reliable defensively but doesn't fill a checking role. However, he is the most offensively capable of the three, and if the Wings are going with 14 forwards they don't need two reserve checking forwards. I expect Miller and Emmerton to start the year as the reserves, possibly one of them in for Abdelkader. Cory looked ready in his short time up last year. He's not a star, but he's competent and still as a lot of potential and development left in him. Conner better be NHL-ready at his age. He's played a decent number of games for multiple teams, which suggests that he's at least serviceable in a Doug Janik sort of way. Emmerton is the obvious choice, because he's so much more likely to be claimed on waivers. Because: 1) The Wings don't need to have two reserve checking line forwards for the fourth line. 2) Emmerton provides a "scoring reserve" which would allow a Mursak/Helm/Eaves line to stay intact in the event of injuries. 3) Emmerton knows the Wings' system, and has the skills to play within it proficiently.

Emmerton for sure. The Wins have put so much into him and he's been in the organization for quite a long time he deserves a shot at making the team. Conner can be a call-up if necessary.

Hudler and the word physically together.... Hudler provides more offense than Semin? You slay me! Thanks for making my day funny!

Hell, NASA still uses TRS-80 computers for some mission-specific calculations- they work, no need to change them. A friend of mine on another forum has been tasked with finding parts for them when he was stationed at Canaveral- said it was nearly impossible.

I think my friend still has a Commodore 64-I'm going to bring it to the game when the Wings come to MTL and throw it onto the ice if Commodore scores.

The crackdown came with encouragement from the NHL, which has sought to curb the tradition in previous seasons. "It's a safety issue. You throw stuff on the ice, people get their skates caught in it, they fall down and hurt themselves. It's wrong. That's a problem," said NHL VP of media relations Frank Brown in April. OMG wth???? Hockey players are always falling down on the ice that's why they wear protective gear moron.

"Commodore to the dressing room with a boot problem" "Commodore sidelined 2 games with a slipped disc" The possibilities are endless!

Whatchutalkin'bout meaner? They ditched Kopecky! Besides, our power play will get them right where it hurts. Or something. Or maybe one of the new guys will actually fight. Or we get Downey back at the deadline. Or they won't make the playoffs and we'll respond by just laughing at them. That would be cool. They have taken another step waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down this offseason. They got pretty far this year. Much further than I would have thought they would. They still have talent, but there's only so much the Core can do. Plus we have Kronner to Havsplat them. Stuie does some good hitting. The new guys aren't exactly pansies. And Pavel can embarrass them with his puck work. As long as they don't concuss us or anything, it's the final score that counts. As a fight slappie, it hurts to say that, but unfortunately we can only play with what we have.

I love you Blueadams

I've seen his name and Mccabes name come up a few times, f*** it let's ink them both>Pairing #3 complete.

I would actually like that move, it would be good for Toronto they need someone to turn to other then Burke . *******>Super nice guy. I think it works.

What else did he need?

Bieksa may be a little out of reach after this run is done. Though it wouldve been nice.

Props Jimmy!

...REDWIN ATTACK!....

I call a hatty for The Mule tonite

It's original so he gets points for that, and most of you guys dig it so...I guess it is just me, because I don't like it at all!

according to a recent tweet, six-four just ordered this t-shirt:

Emmerton is quick and has good skill, so would fit well as a substitute when Franzen/Holmstrom/Bert miss games, or on one of the top three lines if he makes the top-twelve. Conner doesn't have the hands or hockey sense to play an offensive role, but he is a hard worker and a good grinder despite his size; and he's fast. Conner in the lineup for Abdelkader would make for a Mursak/Helm/Conner line, allowing the Wings to utilize Eaves' shot on a scoring line. Potential lineups with each player: Hudler/Zetterberg/Franzen Filppula/Datsyuk/Bertuzzi Cleary/Helm/Eaves Mursak/Emmerton/Holmstrom Hudler/Zetterberg/Cleary Franzen/Datsyuk/Holmstrom Bertuzzi/Filppula/Eaves Mursak/Helm/Conner Both of those are solid lineups, but I think I prefer to run with this regular lineup: Hudler/Zetterberg/Cleary Filppula/Datsyuk/Holmstrom Franzen/Abdelkader/Bertuzzi Mursak/Helm/Eaves It's certainly easy to plug Emmerton into Abdelkader's spot in that lineup as the third line center, also.

I agree. Besides I can't stand Malik.

NHL Free Agency 2011: Boston Bruins Should Spend Big or Not Spend at All Funny how Stamkos keeps coming up with the Bruins.

I say we go after Stamkos, offer him $7.835M, and give Tampa our 4 first round picks since we'll be at the bottom of the draft pool and be done with it. We have the 7th deepest prospect pool in the league, so it wouldn't hurt us any. Tampa doesn't have the cash to match any offer nor do they have any kind of assets. Hockey Prospectus ranks Bruins' prospect pool seventh in NHL
