    Flyers' Rinaldo to have hearing for hit on Ruhwedel.

    Repeat offender, puck was gone and he had the chance to soften the impact ~ 5 games

    A plea to Holland.

    As much as I would love having him I think the Ducks are easily the frontrunner for his services: - their top 6 is basically set lot's of young guns coming - thanks to revenue sharing he will get paid very well - low pressure market with all the privacy in the world - close to his wife so I can easily see, why he would choose the Ducks.

    Detroit says Weiss "Not Getting Better", likely done for year

    If I'm Holland I'd tell Weiss you are on LTR till you are 100 % sure you can contribute to our line up for the time being we are going with someone else. Both have them huge disappointments in my mind, Clarkson brought nothing to the Leafs and well Weiss is hurt all the time. Easily the two worst off-season signings.

    Red Wings race to the playoffs

    Personally I would be happy for the Jackets this franchise has gone through so much crap, has a non competitive budget and had mr. no clue Howson at the helm so... At the end of the day if the Wings make the playoffs, Babs should be in the Adams discussion no doubt ! After thinking a bit more rational about it, the loss against the *** Habs isn't such a big deal I didn't expect this team to beat Boston but expected them to at least get a point against Montreal so + - = 0. Out of the next three games I think Buffalo and the Hurricanes should be two wins, which would give us 92 points and we own Toronto + New Jersey in terms of ROW so it would be enough. I think the standings aren't going to change much hopefully I'm right. Although the Pens - if healthy - do scare me it wouldn't be as bad as facing the Bruins.

    Dive of the Year

    Like people mentioned Sindy can win all the trophies, stanley cups, be rich as hell and having an unbelievable beautfiful girlfriend at the end of the day he sometimes acts like a spoiled little brat if things aren't going his way. Boy would I love seeing him do that s*** against Backes or even better Colton Orr... He is the best player in the world why do you have to use such low tactics ?!
  6. Found a really nice quote on the NHL site: ,,..I don't want to give you all of my secrets, but if I was in a skill competition with those two guys I'm going to lose 100 times out of 100. Physical, hard, make them earn their ice. That's the way I play most nights, I'd like to think .." the guy is the prototype of a blue collar hockeyplayer, beast and is giving out all each shift even if not the most talented player. God would he ever look good in a Winged Wheel

    If the Wings want Kesler it would start with Tatar +++ and at that point I'd say no injuries are increasing for this guy.

    4/5 GDT - Canadiens 5 vs Red Wings 3

    Well it's over now but I hope the next meeting (next season) will have someone from us smashing a certain D bag through the glass. As for diving I hate it I can not stand it this crap is for pussylike soccerplayers NHL players should be above it. But then again the french chickens got away with it against the Bruins so why not try it against another O 6 team... That being said I love the original 6 battles and btw. the atmosphere wasn't that great my guess would be Winnipeg beats the Habs in terms of fan envolvment and noise easily. Let's hope this was the much needed kick in the pan they need to win against Buffalo no doubt.

    Backes on playing against Malkin and Crosby

    As a huge Backes fan I didn't like it either, Hitchcock should look at the replay again. Bordelau threw a clean hit and Shattenkirk hurt himself with his own stick bad luck and well wishes but Backes acted like a monkey. The Blues coach also said someone will go after Bordelau next time they are meeting so maybe that's Jackman? If the wannabe toughguy has at least a bit of a brain he shouldn't do it the only same goes for Backes, the only one who might do well against Bordelau is Reeves and even that's a long shot so let's see.

    Howard wouldn't have changed the outcome of the game. The 5 goal was goalie interference how for you stop a shot if you can't move around! I hope the game was some sort of wake up call and the team puts in 60 minutes against the Sabres

    Happy for him well deserved

    A plea to Holland.

    Get rid off Kindl, Lashoff has to play beyond his talent level and while that's very frustrating I can't blame him. That being said I am starting to warm up on the idea of Ehrhoff
  13. So the Max leafs can get is 92 right? It's only Washington won tonight so nothing really happened but they need to find some extra gear for the last games. You can't expect Nyquist to play like Stamkos forever.

    The comeback should give them a much needed boost but the defense needs to get their act together not even Lundqvist would for well behind them

    NOW would have been the time to send a message sadly our fourth line is a joke, would change them for Calgary's without thinking twice.
