While I'm not current on all the threads up right now, the only blatant trashing I have noticed is in regards to the Pronger incident, which is understandable I think.

Welcome to salary cap hockey. It's no longer about which team has the biggest/best stars, it's which team has the most depth and best supporting cast and can play the best team game

Has Pronger made any kind of public comments about the hit?

I can't think of a less glorious way to die than AIDS

I'd rather take my chances with the new Lang than the old Lang...

Crazy. I turned on the game, knocked out for a couple hours and woke up with 10 seconds left in the game. You're welcome Buffalo...

Me fail english?!?! That's unpossible!

And he's making almost 3mil per??? Sorry, I don't see him sticking around next season.

Wicked burn mate!

Cause if you ain't first, you're LAST!!!!

I'd like Holland to make just ONE really big signing this year (re-signing Bertuzzi doesn't count), don't really care who or which position, just someone that EVERYONE can agree will instantly make the team. I mean really, when was the last time the wings signed a free agent that you were really excited about?

My summer 2007 wishlist? To bask in the glory of Lord Stanley's return to Hockeytown....

The only person in Calgary that's going to be on the block this summer is Playfair.

How about McLennnan? Belfour - NO WAY! I was SO afraid they would sign him last year I almost lost it. Way past his prime. Giguere - Naw, he'll probably get somewhere from 5-6 mil, I'd rather offer that to Lundqvist (RFA) than Giguere Theodore - Still has another year on his contract at 6 mil. He isn't going anywhere. Denis - Rather have Osgood. Backstrom - I think he could do well in Detroit, played great with Manny out and could probably be signed for around 2 mil. My first choice would be Ray Emery, he's a restricted free agent this summer and with the contract they gave to Gerber Ottawa might have a hard time resigning him. Plus it'd be nice to have a goaltender who isn't afraid to drop the gloves once in awhile Next, I'd go for Bryzgalov, then Mike Smith. If Anaheim does resign Giguere for 5-6 mil, they'd probably have to trade Bryzgalov just to make cap space. I know there's no way Dallas will trade Smith, but I think he'd be a very capable netminder anywhere else. What about Joseph? He's a free agent this year, I think he played great in Detroit.

Since the 01-02 season, Bertuzzi has been putting up more or less a point per game, even after he went to Florida he had 7 points in 7 games until he had back surgery. I think resting for a couple months after the playoffs will allow him time to fully heal and if he does come back to Detroit next year we could see him put up 60-70 points on the #2 line. He's still got it I think.

Im sure San Jose would be more than happy to let us borrow Mark Bell to use on defense

Not to mention the fact that Anaheim has no one injured...

Does anyone think we'll see Toskala before this series is over? I've always thought he was better than Nabokov...

Now all you need is for your dog to die and your wife to leave you and you can officially write a country song about it!

Everybody is somebody's *****.

You don't want us to play Buffalo because your best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who is related to Ryan Miller? Sorry, I had to

I think he thought you meant Zionist. Because really, the two are very similar

Dag, yo! There will be some major crow eatin goin down on that forum if the Sharks end up winning.

Actually, I thought he should have stood up and blocked it with his face, a la Guerin. Now that would have made me stand up and give him props. As it is, he gets a modest "Atta boy" from me.
