please keep bumping until Crymson comes back down. bump.

yeah, i've had Enough. f*** dude, you are a damn bully on this site. you are not the LGW COP. for the last couple of years i have read your posts and you have been up with EVA and NN and WestWing and the Barnes Brothers and Boss and MATT, (esp. MATT). relax. it is not your job to be in charge. again, RELAX. we all love hockey. we all love the wings. we all love our opinions. it's just that not all our opinions love the same thing. Crymson, you are Top Ten on this site. BE top 10. k. please someone make sure Crymson gets this post. I love a good fight, and i know he will feel the same. C. the smart ones always rise. come on up, C.

unfortunately, that is not calder in the picture. lou siffer pointed out who it is earlier. i forget. calder was #19.

james taylor and douglas adams. wow.

wrong thing to say, wrong person to say it to. HOH, relax. 4th grade may be tough for some, but then, fifth grade...it all makes sense. fractions look good, i before e makes sense, don't worry. don't you give up on your Bobby. He will see you through.* *unless we trade him to the rangers for a third round pick, then he will see them through...through the end of the season and on to the golf coarse. where... i hear robert is the third best golfer in the league and it would be great to play a round with him. let me know, i'll call him and set it up. k.

for the same reason you would want him up with the wings. also, say columbus makes a couple more deals, needs a 4th line forward, but doesn't want to rush one of their prospects up, so they claim bootland, and finish the year with him getting 6 minutes of ice per game. or maybe dave lewis will want him for the baby wings team he is putting together in boston.

i just remember hearing out of camp that this was it for bootland. either he makes the team or he'll be exposed through waivers if he comes up. (technically, when he goes back down)

i'm not sure, but i don't think that's how it works. at some point, you are exposed on the waiver wire for other teams to take. just like joey mac today. we kept him all season for two reasons, one, to back up osgood so dom didn't have to dress and two, he would've been exposed and lost to someone like boston. hudler was out of chances, he had to make the team or go through waivers, i'm sure bootland is out chances as well. where's eva or NN? they would know.

won't bootland have to clear waivers when we send him back down? maybe someone would grab him. ellis can come and go without having to clear. (i think)

from wikipedia: Teams may also designate alternate captains, who are sometimes referred to erroneously as "assistant captains". Alternate captains wear the letter A on their jerseys in the same manner that team captains wear the C. In the NHL, teams may appoint two alternate captains if they also have appointed a captain, or they may choose to appoint three alternate captains and no captain.[1] Teams need not appoint the same players as alternate captains from game to game, though they generally do. International rules stipulate that "each team shall appoint a Captain and no more than two Alternate Captains."[2] When the captain is not on the ice, any alternate captain on the ice may fulfill the captain's official role as liaison to the referees. Alternate captains perform many of the same leadership and team building roles as the captain. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_(ice_hockey) sorry. k.

i caught it, but for your own sake i wasn't going to out you as a J.T. fan.

by the way, the "A" stands for "alternate" not "assistant"

couldn't resist could you? thanks. k.

the greatest moment in sports that i have ever see. (on TV, not live) k.

laketrout A La Pointe anyone?

if i'm not mistaken, it's lang who is stinking up the joint. so why reward him and drop cleary. maybe find a new center for cleary and his second linemate (williams, flip or rex). this won't happen, but don't make cleary pay for langs troubles. k.

and he'll stick with what he knows. It's too risky to try something new.

yes, he did. this is the best spot for salaries: http://www.nhlnumbers.com/ k.

before the season.

have you disappeared because you became a mod? k.

i just don't know why anyone would take williams. especially the blues. yeah, it was spectors where i saw it. thanks.

i read somewhere this morning that the price for guerin is a player/prospect and a 1st round pick.

don't forget trade lilja for bert. williams for guerin. bootland for laraque. and maltby for modin.

exactly. wouldn't it be funny if the preds turned around and traded him away to columbus or someone out of the playoffs. think about it, he already waived his no trade clause
