    Aaron Downey gets NHL Coyotes try-out

    That's it? Embellishment and a bad camera angle, obviously Downey tried to get him, but that's nothing.

    For the last time...

    Stuart needs to stay, good canadian boy. Plus he hits, we dont really have a surplus of that during the regular season on the backend.

    Chelios among options for Predators

    I'd still love him. Bert vs Cheli 7 years later? Or even better, Tootoo and Chelios on the same team?

    New Money Woes for McCarty

    That really sucks for Darren, I hope he does take up the KHL's offer to get some money to pay that stuff off.

    Offseason topic, Kronner's hit on Havlat

    Fantastic. It was a shame he didnt through em as often as 08, but that made up for it. And for people saying it was dirty... GOOD! Enough "class" and "byngs are good". I've loved every single one of them, thats hockey, sometimes you leave you feet, sometimes you dont.

    2010 Team Canada

    I hope Dano makes this team, he's getting literally no press whatsoever, I'm hoping Babs just lets him play top line with Z&D and get some powerplay time, prove his worth through points. He can be a Canadian warrior, just needs a chance. (Yeah I know it's unlikely, but Newfies gotta pull for one another.)

    Rank this Decade's Cup Losing Teams

    Despite knocking out the Wings (which I blamed solely on Legace and made it easier for me to like them ), I wish Edmonton had won. That team had so many great stories and players I liked, it was too bad. I'd put them behind the Wings, Devils, and Stars and just in front of the Pens.

    Can Datsyuk challenge Boucher?

    Really though In 2002, I never would've imagined Datsyuk being a physical player and a defensive stud, all the while leading the Wings in scoring 3 years in a row.

    Can Datsyuk challenge Boucher?

    I hope not. His Selkes and Stanley Cups are something to brag about, Byngs arent.

    IIHF refuses to grant transfer card to Jiri Hudler

    Leave us alone Hudler, if you do come back, have fun on another team. That is the best comparison I've ever heard

    Mike Sillinger Retires

    Ah man, that's too bad. Always a hard worker, funny how a guy who's a hard worker and a coaches dream got tossed around so much. Best of luck Mike.

    Aaron Downey gets NHL Coyotes try-out

    I know it's not really relivant, but most goalies I played against, were absolute dickheads. Seriously, blockers flying everywhere, one year I got challenged by goalies to fight 5 times! What Downs did was only a big deal because it was in the AHL, I've seen much worse done over much less. I mean it's not like he dove into the other teams bench and started chucking punches at the whole team or anything.

    DirecTV dropping Versus network

    ESPN needs to get hockey back. Sometimes I'd watch the ESPN broadcast over the CBC one if they were being played on both, Gary Thorne was just a heck of an announcer.

    Forsberg: Another Comeback attempt

    I hope he fails horribly. Dirty bastard, give it up.

    KHL After McCarty

    I hope he doesnt. No need for a guy like Mac to leave his family and go to Russia.

    Eva, did you pick Jersey to face the Wings just so you could say that Ozzie's career postseason numbers, number of cups and head to head against Brodeur was better? Not saying I wouldnt mind it, because Ozzie deserves it. NVM, but Philly will go further.

    Wings sign Todd Bertuzzi

    Sure, cant argue that, but Kopecky was no improvement, so apples and oranges between him and Downs.

    McCarty likely to retire

    That's too bad. Mac will always be one of my favorites, his beat down on Claudia will never die, too bad he couldnt get a gig with GR again this season.

    Lilja update

    Why did it have to happen to Lilja of all the defenceman, he'd hit, fight and stick up for his teamates time after time and now he's damaged goods. A healthy Lilja-Ericsson combo would've been exactly what this team needed.

    Aaron Downey gets NHL Coyotes try-out

    I wish Downey had left after he defended Lidstrom against Colorado, how friggin dirty was that! Everythign Downey did, he did for the team. He was a great ******* guy and doesnt deserve anything negative said about it, it's ridiculous.

    That's cool, a guranteed 2nd round trip and people underestimating Detroit? Yeah, sounds good to me.
