    Red Wings Goalie curse stretches to 18 years

    A report in Aftonbladet apparently has Dallas & Toronto as the front-runners for this guy. EDIT: http://www.aftonbladet.se/sportbladet/hock...ticle4861354.ab

    Instead of a draft lottery....

    Exactly, or if a team in the bottom owns two picks?

    Instead of a draft lottery....

    Given the relationship between the NHL and IIHF is already strained at best, I don't think it would go over too well.

    The players don't give a rat's @$$ who gets the first pick...so to have them play a mini-tournament for the first pick is pretty meaningless. Plus, the IIHF would be up in arms if it costs them NHLers for the World Championships.

    2010 Winter Classic - Fenway Park

    The league will put the Islanders in the outdoor game when JT is established. Bank on it. Capitals are also a strong possibility. The thought is that the league will also wait and see who Boston has a really intense series with in the playoffs and that could also determine who is in the game.

    2010 Winter Classic - Fenway Park

    Flyers/Penguins is being saved for down the road...2011 or 2012, likely.

    2010 Winter Classic - Fenway Park

    Yeah, but the thought is that they want to save Rangers/Islanders (when the Islanders have a better team) for new Yankee Stadium. Habs really don't have a venue for an outdoor game unless the roof falls off of Olympic Stadium again.

    celine dion looking to buy hockey team

    It would technically be Dion's husband/manager buying the Habs. But I hear that Molson wants back in, along with at least a dozen other groups/people. This one will be a deal in the billions of dollars.

    2009 Detroit Tigers Season Thread

    Good to see the Jays might actually have some bats this year. Lind & Snider are going to be a formidable duo for many years. Pitching on the other hand....

    The Apple Doesn't Fall...

    Can't wait to see what the kid brings to the table. Too bad we have to wait until next year to see Bozak in the NHL.

    will the expanded playoff roster spark this team?

    Yeah I know they don't have to do anything, but you don't hang your AHL team out to dry right when they start the playoffs.

    Don't the kids have to play in the AHL playoffs?

    Wasn't Mogilny "Alexander the Great"??

    Women -- In the Upper Tiers of Hockey?

    I know that the Canadian Olympic Women's team plays against midget AAA teams to get ready for the Olympics and other big tournaments, so that kind of gives you an idea of the calibre of the top women's players.

    Hockey Hall of Fame Opens Doors

    Haley Wickenheiser can barely cut it in the third-division Swedish league. There's no way any woman could play in the NHL unless she was 'roided up to the gills.

    Wings might have signed the next Mike Green...

    Happens an awful lot with overage guys.
