Yes he's a fan favourite, but I don't know how I feel about this signing.. Although I trust Mr. Holland, I hope it's not just a nostalgic signing

you guys are pretty funny!! Yeah I'm not hardcore because I don't dish out dirty hits or approve of them, nice!!! I for one am sick and tired at the fact that the only time NBC, or other stations talk about hockey in their newscast is when things go wrong (a la Bertuzzi or McSorley) Who said I don't support toughness? this surely isn't!! And no, no one deserves that kind of treatment, this isn't the jungle! What you do is discipline the players! Look at Bertuzzi, since his suspension, he hasn't made the news because of new dirty hits like that one. Besides, I wouldn't expect to be able to discuss this in a civil way with you two clowns, but please, prove me wrong

I sure hope you're kidding because that is downright disgusting. IF by any chance you're not kidding, then just imagine yourself at the end of that sucker punch. That doesn't belong in hockey, or anywhere else for that matter.

Yeah don't you remember when they rested players after they reached 100 pts and lost a couple of games in a row going into the playoffs, but see, nothing to worry about

WOW 23 mins for Chelios. People there is nothing to worry about, this is not even as bad as the Wings losing 2 in a row against the Nucks in the 02 playoffs

EVERYONE! There are some good news from that loss. GREAT NEWS actually: Chelly has played over 22 mins, and he still looks AWESOME I love that man

God I hope I can look this good when I'm his age

Well one of the fans is giving him the thumbs up!

WHAT ABOUT THE CUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO! DETROIT WHAT!

http://sports.sympatico.msn.ca/THNcom+Blog...&date=False This is a pretty good article I stumbled upon.. I had no idea all these players will be eligible for next year! Who gets your vote? PS: Sorry if this has appeared in another thread!

Hey I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place.... I was just wondering, what skills competitions did Yzerman take part in when he played in the ASG?

if he's ready to go, he's ready to go!

OHHHHHHHHHHHH I get it!!! Sirdrake's only trying to be early on April fools day!

I would put NY in the pretenders list for now

Good point Opie, and even though you and I disagree, thanks for remaining civil

I think most people here don't realize how much 30 games is.. It's quite bit, if you think about it that's almost half the season, AND half his salary. I agree with the suspension

But it's not about having the best players, it's about having the right ones

I was just about to post this. This is a great idea for the team and the league to distance themselves from Simon and his actions. With that said I believe Simon is sincere in his apology and that seeking some form of counseling proves it

The NHL does not need this.. They'll have to set yet ANOTHER example with Simon. I wouldn't be surprised if he got 25 games. Not only did Ruutu have his back turned, but he was down

Just imagine if we had Crosby Just imagine if Yzerman had never had his initial knee injury after scoring his 50th goal of the season Just imagine if Hasek was 33 yrs old again

Lol did you guys see Budaj' helmet?? HILARIOUS!!! I'm not gonna ruin it for you guys, just check it out!

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Best mask ever: Brian Hayward with the Sharks 2nd would be Kirk Maclean, but don't ask me why!

OH MAN, just the thought of these games actually taking place.... I just had an orgasm............... damn!

You know I tend to repress sad memories ok so I know it was a celebration of his career, I know
