Hes the Matt Millen of hockey. However at least Millen makes a decent job and sounding intelligent and fooling people into thinking he knows what hes talking about.

What the hell qualifies Mike Milbury to talk about anything... at all?

What the hell qualifies Mike Milbury to talk about good management moves?

why is mike milbury so ******* stupid?
and Nabby stick with it buddy, we want you here in hockeytown

you mean kind of like the MLB? I dont think we need to argue which league is doing better right now.

there's speculation that Ottawa will be getting a new GM and coach this offseason. Pierre mcguire's name has been mentioned as GM; maybe they should also hire Milbury as coach.

Milbury just said once again what a good rule this waiver thing is, and billy jaffe was trying to control himself from laughing. lol

Selanne and Karyia didn't have a problem doing that before.

Good for Nabokov.
This isn't just about being claimed by a perennial bottom feeder, it's about being claimed by one of the most poorly managed franchises in all of professional sports. How can anyone blame the man for not wanting to deal with the consistently bad decisions made by Garth Snow and Charles Wang? Of all the teams to possibly be claimed by, the Islanders are definitely a nightmare for any player.

Good for you Nabokov, stand up for what you beleive and stand up for what you want to do. His resoning is clear and I quite agree with it. After he had the time to get ready for to play and got back up to speed with the Islanders the season would just about be over and he would have only played a few games thus not really providing any value or good use. It doesn't sound like Nabokov will be able to come to Detroit unless they make a trade and I'd hate to see the Wings lose a Draft pick for a goalie like Nabokov when it could be put to use with drafting another player to make Detroit a deeper team. I'd rather see the Wings make another attempt with another goalie or trade a current player. The waiver rule really needs to be changed to avoid all of this mass confusion from happening again.

Didn't see it coming? The Islanders were one of the most obvious if not the most obvious team that would claim him. What do you think these guys get paid for, to be more ignorant of the situation than a bunch of fans on Twitter and a message board???

Why would he do that when his agent came out yesterday and said that he would report to any team that claimed him??????????

Every team should be allowed to sign any free agent up to the trade deadline for whatever price they want as long as they are under the cap and they pay at least the minimum. This includes the teams I hate. This waiver crap is just stupid.

I think it's because the Hawks away jerseys are all red. It just helps to differentiate the teams.

Either way you slice it, really amazing. He's only 5'5". If anyone is wondering, the record for the fastest two goals are by Nels Stewart (Jan. 3, 1931) and Deron Quint (Dec. 15, 1995), both at 4 seconds.

so why no re-entry waivers? special rules apply? He played outside of North America this season...

Give the conspiracy theories a rest for the night. Osgood was considerably worse than Howard last year and Jimmy almost played to a Calder then was just too gassed at the end. Nothing more or less. This isn't "Who shot JFK?"

No Blake. No Nabokov. No replacements for them. Add in, that none of their "core" players are in a contract year. Sounds like a recipe for their lack of success to me.

How can a guy like Milbury still be employed? Can he actually do anything noteworthy? All I see is that he spits BS all around on a regular basis.

this thread needs more hot dogs. murph will show up after that.

I can honestly say that if I had spent the first few years watching anyother broadcaster, I don't think I'd have liked hockey as much. Kenny and Mickey have great chemistry and the occasional debate leads to great television viewing! Well done Ken!

This thread needs more Larry Murphy.

Way to go, Ken Daniels! My favorite sportscaster alongside Mickey Redmond. Best in the game!

This is just not the way to do things. I remember looking forward to the Allstar weekend for weeks, now it seems to be more of a joke then anything. This along with Lids and Dats a while back just doesnt help the situation, nor does it look good on us in my opinion. I just think that as part of the NHL these players get paid a lot of money, if you are a special enough player to be chosen to go it should be an honor. Ladies and gentleman my two cents.
