Regarding the 7 goals in a period video...Oh hell yeah, the Stacy Roest era. Was that pre-Sedin?

Eriksson almost got beat by SCOTT GOMEZ!

Joey MacDonald....is there a Joey MacDonald in the house? Paging Joey MacDonald..

Conks isn't doing us any favors tonight either. Damn.

if this is what Life Without Lidstrom looks like, he can NEVER retire!

Times is hard....Times is hard...

I thought it was going to be Jamie Macoun.

Must have been a BAD night for the home team. Maybe Stevie lit them up that night!

My whole thing is this...I see other GM's stealing players like Burns or Heatley and I know Kenny has the skills to pull one of these off...That's why I am a little frustrated to see those other players going elsewhere instead of here. I know everyone can't come here, but...It's not just UFA's, there are trades that can be made. Let go of a few of those precious draft picks. Gotta think outside the box and go after the players that fit the needs of your team. The other GM's proved it.

Personally, I think it's just OK. We all expected a Rafalski replacement, didn't come. I think Kronwall will get bumped up and groomed for taking the mantle when Nick is gone. Maybe White can handle the PP too, who knows? But I think this area still has some question marks. Their overall talent level went down with Rafalski retiring and I don't think the void was completely filled. And for me, filling the void was the MINIMUM...I would have liked to see the level brought above last year's team. Maybe the new defense couch will have an effect. I felt they needed to go after a finisher, someone to benefit from the sweet setups Dats and Z can give a scoring winger. Did not do that. Kind of stood too pat for me. Personally I think that there are a few too many guys who don't go hard to the net and get the dirty hard scoring chances. Would have loved to see him pick up someone who brought that as well as a little sandpaper in his game. And not Franzen kind of sandpaper, real grit. Not facewashing people and skating away. Goalies? Well, it looks like they are set. Conklin hasn't played great the last 2 years, who knows, but at 1 mil, you can roll the dice. Howard is still the man.

How's that working out for the Wings today?

Fleishmann going to Florida. 4 years 18 million.

Bryan McCabe, come on down!

Sabres are in it to win it! I like their new attitude! 6 years / 27 million? FOR LEINO? Maybe not.

I would have liked Versteeg for basically nothing. Where were you on that one, Kenny?

1 year, 1 mil for Commodore. Must have taken all morning to work that one out.

Hey! Wait! We got MIKE COMMODORE!!

That's the problem, 4-7. I think I am about ready to rule this day a bust and take a nap. Ericsson and Miller! YAY! Buy your playoff tickets now, folks. GO CUP CRAZY! Oh....

Derek Meech to Wpg. 2 way contract. $700 (nhl) $105 (ahl)

Can you imagine being a fan of a team like Minnesota or Calgary or Ottawa, where NOTHING is happening and you're just watching your players leave? Even though I am frustrated as hell right now, I have to say I'm glad at least the team I am a fan of TRIES to win the cup every year. Come on Kenny!!

So Tomas Flieshmann is out for you then too?

TSNBobMcKenzie Bob McKenzie Matt Keator, agent for Michal Handzus, sent email to all NHL GMs saying PHI media reports he signed in PHI erroneous. Very much a free agent. HAHAHAHa....hey...guys! Just letting you know I'm still out here! GUYS! HEY!

I truly don't see the appeal of Marcel Goc or what he brings to a team at all. Is there something I am missing?

Kenny, the Avs are getting stupider...call them about Stastny! Picks and players...you can do it!

Canadiens targeting Eric Belanger or Max Talbot BECAUSE THEY ARE FRENCH CANADIANS. WTF? That handcuffs that team so much...
