I had to check the date on that linked story and that quote still holds true; he wasn't playing in the NHL on 07/07/2009 and he's not playing in the NHL now, is he?

His only problem is not knowing how to take a punch to the face properly.

The Parade is on hold again; from Sportsnet:

Snow will figure out what to do. The thing is that someone will do it before he does.

From Globe and Mail:

From TSN:

I laugh; but, he is fluent in Russian, with a major in expletives.

Leads the team???

After their first 50 games this season, the DRW have had 13 losing streaks, broken down as: 1-game: 7 2-game: 2 3-game: 4 I offer the following as one of the biggest reasons the Club has struggled up to this point in the season: the 3-game losing streak. It has happened four times so far this season. The results of the games in each, plus goals scored and goals allowed, are as follows: #1 SOL / OTL / L DET: 6 OPP: 10 #2 L / L / L DET: 1 OPP: 8 #3 L / L / L DET: 3 OPP: 10 #4 SOL / SOL / L DET: 7 OPP: 10. Out of a possible 24 points during these 3-game losing streaks, Detroit collected 4 points. In the twelve games lost, Detroit was outscored 17 to 38. If you take just one game in each of the four groups of three and change it to a win, there is a minimum of 6 extra points and a maximum of 8 points more that could have been had. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but please consider the following: add those points to the current total and it pushes them up from a fight for the last playoff spot up to second in their Division and fourth in their Conference. The last time Detroit registered four 3-game losing streaks in a season was 1989-90. Most good teams are successful because they minimize the number and length of their losing streaks. The best news is that, so far, the streaks have stopped at three.

So, anyway... have things improved this season? Yes they have. At the same 50 game mark that I used last season, there has only been one 3-game losing streak thus far, with the first game of the three being an overtime loss. Overall, there is an improvement in wins (+6), points (+10) and points percentage (+.100). Nice.

An opinion is like a Mindfly, everyone has one.

They were sooooo close. Then, Regier's failed vision took over and the rest has been a virtual nightmare.

Buffalo News. The plot might thicken.
