Anyone notice that there is ZERO promotion of the sweden games on the NHL.com frontpage, but yet they still have the "Nova Scotia" tab show Cindy and the cup with pictures that are months old....

This is exactly what Comcast wants. If DirecTV overpays, they win. If DirecTV refuses, they win, because they'll gain subscribers. It's a win-win for Comcast and a lose-lose for consumers. Just remember, Scamcast has introductory pricing, be sure to ask what the price will be after the promotional period; sometimes it quadruples or more.

LOL. Versus sucks. Comcast sucks. Versus hockey coverage sucks. NBC sucks. NBC's 6 iso cams of Sidney Crosby sucks. FSD, hands down, has the best hockey coverage. I like the CBC coverage too, but I can't get them in HD.

My idea: Thank him for his service and wish him luck.

Dandenault used to be my favorite player. I've got a signed Dandy jersey and I even had the pleasure of meeting Mathieu at the Troy ice rink. However, I just don't think we need him right now. I was always impressed with his speed, but he never seemed to develop beyond that raw speed.

Larsson is just traveling with the team to Sweden in case of emergency. He was sent to the Griffins and therefore doesn't count against the cap.

Does anyone know how to translate from traitor tot into english?

WTF!!?!!? IT'S SEPTEMBER 24TH!!!! What a mess. I don't see their season starting off well.

I don't feel the NHL was fair and impartial, but the Wings simply bent over and took it. The only thing that makes me smile is how freaking awesome Ozzie was. I was an Ozzie doubter, and I said to pull him for the playoffs, and I will gladly eat my words.

I love Homer, but appreciation threads are dumb...

I'll take Montreal, Toronto, Boston, and NYR over just the Hawks any day. I would love to be in the East conference.

I'm not quite sure the hit was even dirty... I guess he plays for keeps in even pre-season.

True. It did look like they were about to, but they didn't. It reminds me of when some dude hit Steve Yzerman and Stu Grimson had his led hanging over the dasher waiting for someone to come to the bench.

Better quality:

I'm curious too! I currently work in Troy, but my company is moving to a new location downtown near a people mover station, so I will be rather interested in the cost, but I think it will still be too rich for my blood.

I really like those lines. I especially like that Maltby isn't on there. I love the guy, but we have youth that can do better now. He's only good at penalty killing.

Bleed? We've got Todd 'The Paralyzer' Bertuzzi.

Damn, how many Lady Byngs do you have to win before you can get some recognition!?

Hell no.

Crosby is going to be captain of the Olympic diving team.

All this talk about trading Stuart makes me wonder whether or not he has a no trade clause. Does anyone know if this is so?

True.

LMFAO. My thoughts exactly.

Good luck Mac Attack!

Switch to WOW Cable and Internet, http://www.wowway.com if it is available in your area. I've been a WOW customer for years, and I was a Comcast customer before that. WOW won't bait and switch you with fancy offers that only last for 3 months or something stupid like that. I have 2 mbps Internet (which is more than enough for my household), television service throughout the whole house into cable ready TV's, one digital reciever, and one HD-DVR reciever and I only pay about 80 dollars a month, and that's not a promotional rate. WOW also has excellent customer service. I also cannot recall a service interruption in the last year (although they did have issues a couple years ago, but it was limited and has since been resolved). The only bummer about WOW is that they don't have Versus in HD, but they do have it in their Digital lineup in Michigan on channel 306. They have NBC and FSD in HD, so you can watch nearly all Wings games in HD (minus the FSD ones where they don't have HD because of the tigers, pistons or for certain away games).
