    In-game mics

    In game mics aren't bad, but I absolutely can't stand in period interviews or the little tvs that coaches are using behind the bench.

    St.Paul chosen as new Hockeytown USA

    They thought about changing it but ownership didn't think the Jazz would be in Utah long enough to make it worth it. Then the team took off and the rest is history

    Hasek Challenges, Gaborik goes Airborn

    Are you against all plays like this or just this one? What would be your plan to prevent this in the future? Maybe add a second arch from the goal line towards the blue line that the goalie can't pass unless they're going to the bench? or some other stupid rule like that? Hell while we're at lt let's get rid of the boards, sticks, skates, pads, puck and just remake hockey into a nice safe sport like golf. If Hasek didn't play the puck how he did it could have very well cost him his shutout... and started another Hasek hating thread

    Salary Cap.

    you missed a zero. They are almost even. $100 US gets you $100.70 Canadian. Oh and a couple months ago $100 US was getting you in the $90s Canadian.

    Langenbrunner new NJ captain

    I still have trouble with understanding why the league won't let keepers be captains.

    Odds of detroit making a blockbuster?

    Here's my question on this point... They have 5 million left. What rental player(s) are there to be had for that and what small army are they willing to give up for those player(s) at the trade deadline?

    How is Osgood not a write-in leader??

    I'm under the impression that the voting is just for the starting roster yeah? So there goes one of the three slots. If with his season the powers that be choose not to include him could you not say that it's more "Osgood = meh" that seems to flow around the league? That's is what I was getting at, along with the Osgood retirement thread using all-star games as a justification either way.

    Dare I say that if Osgood doesn't get the call for the Allstar game that it casts some light on his HOFness

    12/4 GDT: Red Wings 4, Canadiens 1

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember Probert jumping a guy or two that was Fing with Yzerman without sending an invitation beforehand to RSVBleed.

    Another cheap shot from a Flyer

    Can you imagine how much Murray's face would redden if he got bullied out of the playoffs again?

    I don't know it might bring back the Emery of playing the Ducks.

    Another cheap shot from a Flyer

    so your saying that the Sens would have the Phil of the Flyers?

    Wow... someone that's not a Flyer is suspended

    The Fridge last year? Didn't a player break his hand this preseason as well?

    They're tied for first in fighting majors this year before last night.

    I'm just trying to figure out who is it that the flyers seem to be the only ones being busted regularly.

    2007 College Football Season Talk

    Note on Hawaii... they did at least try for a tougher schedule but was turned down. They even tried to get Michigan for this year.

    NHL Approves New Schedule Format

    with only Buffalo, New Jersey, Anaheim and the New York Islanders voting against the change. oh and because it's relevant here: It wouldn't surprise me if the cap increased by the max allowed again this offseason

    League Revenues

    I was under the impression that teams get revenue on all their merchandise sales regardless of where it's purchased whereas the league only gets a share of league licensed merchandise. Wasn't that part of the NHLPA's gripe with the revenue numbers?
