    Ron Wilson to coach the Leafs

    Nah he won't be saved from being fired at all. They can fire him whenever they want. They just have to pay out the remainder of the contract or whatever is specified within its terms.

    NHL On The Fly Final Torrent?

    Cappers at CIFnation usually do it but they seemed to stop capping OTFF a week or two ago so I can't help sorry.

    Official: Hasek announces retirement

    Not to me. Dom was really good about it IMO.

    Honestly guys, Quenneville isn't that bad.

    Official: Hasek announces retirement

    He deserves to go out during a Cup celebration. What a legend Dom is. You gotta love him. The most spectacular goalie you'll see.

    Is this the year?

    I don't really know anything about this guy. What makes you say we'll get him? What's he like? I'm just gonna put this out there - if Erik Karlsson is still available I guarantee we'll take him. I think he'll go late in the first round but probably before #30. Here's hoping he doesn't.

    Is this the year?

    I don't think Jenks will be around after 29 picks. Maybe Gustafsson.

    Is this the year?

    If I were the GM I'd get another defenseman. Unless a good player drops dramatically like Esposito did last year.

    Coaching Vacancies

    I don't think you fully understand the questions being posed. Anyway, back to the original question - McLellan will get snapped up soon. He's got a great resume and while his NHL apprenticeship is pretty limited I still think he'll make a great head coach. I was actually very surprised when the Avs didn't have a go at him but instead went for... lol... Tony Granato.

    The Pens next year

    Eva, contracts are about where a player is going, not about where he's been. Past performance is an indicator used to determine this. How can you not understand this? Samuelsson is not comparable. Again... clueless.

    The Pens next year

    Eva, you've clearly demonstrated you don't know anything about Staal and his role in Pittsburgh. You should quit while you're beind but I know you won't. Jordan Staal this season was always matched against oppoents top lines. Therrien is good with young players and I think he is being developed well. Jordan Staal will become an elite defensive forward. Perhaps not like Bob Gainey or Guy Carbonneau but I wouldn't be surprised if he did get that good. I've been very impressed by the defensive responsibility and smart decision-making displayed for a 19-year old. Jordan Staal is a great asset for the Pens. He'll get much more than $2m. Comparing him to Sammy is crazy, man.

    Oh what!? What I would give to drink from that thing.

    ozzie

    Ozzie is great but maybe we should stop with all the praise for him. I think Reem is about to pop with excitement.

    Official 2008 Stanley Cup Video.....

    Yeah I just watched the replay of CBC's boradcast. Throughout the interviews and celebrations I couldn't stop punching the air and bouncing with excitement. So enjoyable.

    Anybody with more than 4 Cups?

    I believe the OP's question is about Red Wing players. I don't know the answer though.

    Your most memorable 2008 Playoff moment?

    Ever notice whenever we beat the Avs, we win the Cup?

    I was always one those guys that always thought Ozzie probably wouldn't be a HOFer. He's been great his whole career but it was always really easy to doubt even though I loved him. Now, I just can't. He was just a freak of nature for us in the playoffs. He didn't deserve the Conn Smythe but he was second behind Hank. Regardless, this is his thrid Cup and second as a starter. Surely, he HAS to make the hall of fame. Surely. OsGOD, HockeyCrazy, interminded - I'm totally with you guys. I'm so sorry I was ever not. Ozzie is the man. Not quite man-love status though. I reckon he needs one more for that. Come on Oz, you know you want it.

    Rank The Red Wings Stanley Cups

    This was the second biggest behind '97. This year's emotional investment was massive after last year' heartbreak but not as much as 97's.

    Your most memorable 2008 Playoff moment?

    - Game 7 of Calgary/San Jose. - Agreed on the Montreal/Boston series. - Game 5 of Pittsburgh/Detroit even though it broke my heart. - Flip's goal.

    We always bag on the refs, so.....

    Of course you were.

    I didn't realise that Ozzie supporters had been copping crap. Now I'm even more glad I started this thread.

    Congrats to the Wings and Wing Fans

    Very classy, thanks guys. Congratulations to the Pens on an awesome season. It's no secret they're my second team and I know this isn't the last shot they'll get at Lord Stanley.
