    Gaborik to L.A.

    I agree with Swede40... why should the Kings give up anything?? They might as well ride out this season and sign Gaborik as a free agent in the summer.

    Latest on Zetterberg talks

    Z's extension will only affect future cap numbers, am I right? Barring long-term injury to a big money forward (knock-on-wood), I can't see Kenny adding another forward before the deadline. If we got room, its got to be for a rental defenseman.
  3. the only way Sundin ends up with a Contender is if he signs with the Leafs and he accepts a trade at the deadline. You can bet thats what GMs like Burkie and Sather are talking to Mats about.

    Strachan: Detroit may lose team

    Strachan was just talkin out of his arse... some here should realize the real folks in the D are thicker-skinned and not easily phased by such nonsense. sure the area and the Big-3 are hurting... what else is new? we've been getting bashed for years, decades even. but what does any of that have to do with hockey?? what if Tim Hortons goes under... does Canada lose all their teams? nonsense.
  5. Babs seems to have trouble stemming the tide on long funks... we had a particularly bad one last season. He also has his favorites which can do no wrong *ahem* Sammy and Lebda.

    146 Penalty Minutes in Boston/Dallas Game

    Being disciplined is one thing, but for an agitator to pick & choose their fights is truly classless. I can't see how any Dallas fan can walk away from last nights game proud of their team's character. Ott and Avery are weasels.

    We dont have a 4th line

    waht the heck is up with Sammy?? he's been tryin to play the agitator role... in a silly-bad way. costing us stupid penalties.

    Quincey > Meech/Lebda

    Quincey sure played emotionally charged in this game.... understandably so. Stuart on the otherhand looked awefully pedestrian.

    A case for #91 in the rafters?

    yes. are we all gonna cry in our beer if Lidstrom's #5 doesn't get raised less than a year after he retires?? #19 went up on that date cuz Ilitch wanted it up on that date. thats all. don't think Ilitch has the sole discretion of what goes up there?? hmm... I wonder why #6 didnt make it to the Joe... hmm...

    Downloadable Redwings Schedule?

    cbssportsline offers this: http://fantasynews.sportsline.com/fantasyh...e/printable/DET kinda bland and cheesy, but they work.

    Cable Networks Starting To Wake Up

    i wish friggen Center Ice would at least replay the darn game. They keep swapping channels rendering my timered VCR useless. We pay good money for this darn thing!!

    A case for #91 in the rafters?

    the point is all moot. the decision whether #91 (or any other number) is retired rests solely on Ilitch's discretiion. there really is no rhyme nor reason to the process (nor should there ever be). That being said, we'll probably see Chelios's number up there one day soon. the guy just keep comin back, working for peanuts.

    Kings claim Quincey

    how does this work... if he clears, does Quincy's cap hit come off our books?? can he be assigned to GR?

    Avery targets Bettman and Iginla

    ho hum... Avery needs to save the chatter for results on the ice. who the heck cares what kind of press he got in Rangerland! did his antics really make anyone want to watch his game? Sorry. Leave the gimmicks for the beancounters... I'll take Iginla.

    Oilers 3rd jerseys

    The vintage oiler jersey is SWEET! i wish more teams revert back to their old colors. everyone these days choose basic black..... why any team would want to emulate the LA Kings, I'll never know...

    Wings looking to trade Quincey

    Drake was an enforcer?? btw, bad example with Pronger... Drake was his teammate in St. Lou far longer than he was with anyone here in the D.

    Sharks waive McLaren

    preCAP days, kenny wouldve been lickin his chops for news such as this... should he clear, will he go thru reentry waivers? can he be gotten at half price? i hope he ends up out East. this guy is a bruiser
  19. Grim

    So who's it gonna be?

    sometimes you gotta send down talent simply because you can... heaven forbid that injury opens up a roster spot (knock on wood). Its always good to have extra talent available if needed, even if they are NHL-ready.

    Chelios out 3-6 weeks (tibia)

    so much for that purpoted "Bone Bruise"... Cheli, as much as we all love him, should really start thinkin about hanging up his skates. He's no spring chicken... six weeks is awefully tough for even young guys to bounce back from. it also kills a precious roster spot for someone else deserving.

    No Repeat

    Ozzie has always been a stellar regular season goalie... last Spring he played out of his gourd! If he runs into trouble this playoff run it will surely be due to something physical, not mental. The guy has just about done it all. I hope Conklin gets some serious burn this season... we need Ozzie fresh and healthy come playoff time!

    Khabibulin clears waivers

    sorry if i'm daft, but I don't get the logic behind reentry waivers... does this mean the Blackhawks can send Khabbibulin to the AHL and save 50% of his cap hit??

    Sundin Update

    I wonder if the Leafs' $7.5M offer to their longtime captain is genuine... or is it just a ploy for him to sign so he could be an asset in trade? Mats is holding out for that NMC folks... why won't the media spin this?

    For all the Hudler-haters

    Hudler is being showcased folks... j/k

    Avery knocks off Rangers

    Avery will get steamrolled by all the tough teams out West.
