    I Haven't Heard This Song Since '02

    Haha that ain't bad... But I can't watch stuff like this, reminds me too much of Feds...

    Report: Brunnstrom chooses Detroit?

    As long as the transfer fee is reasonable I doubt that Färjestad will stand in the way. Those things can get messy.

    Fabian Brunnstrom

    Um... Internationally he represents Sweden, he grew up in Sweden, played for Frölunda HC for ten years and has a Swedish nationality. He does have a Canadian citizenship too, probably because he was born there.

    Alfredsson Gets 7 Points

    Well Spezza and Alfy are back and look what happens...

    Backstrom (Of Washington)

    The biggest deal with Enstrom is the fact that he came out of nowhere and is now among the top point-scoring defensemen in the league. Defensively he prolly isn't too great but then Atlanta isn't exactly great defensively overall anyway.

    Kovalchuk Hit

    That hit doesn't make a lot of sense. Temporary brain stoppage.

    Looking for a veteran D-man...how about Danny Markov?

    For some reason this doesn't appeal to me at all.

    Igor Grigorenko

    Fading away then? Perhaps that's not a big surprise...

    In this case I'm definitely happy to be proven wrong.

    Btw... Kronwall is finally getting some love around here... Good stuff!!

    Kronwall And 1st Round Pick For Sundin?

    I don't really see us giving up any roster players for a purely rental player. It would have to be for someone with a year left or something. Unless it's for someone like Hossa where you can start to throw in conditional picks and stuff depending on signing and production.

    Backstrom (Of Washington)

    He's also playing together with AO more now that Nylander is injured tho that actually started before the injury. Now they don't really have a choice I suppose.

    True. But their track record with Brunnstrom isn't very good: "They were unwilling to sign Brunnstrom unless he was willing to play for the Toronto Marlies of the American League and the Leafs refused to budge. " (Linky)

    Coyotes Ink Bryzgalov To Extension

    Finally the Yotes have a goaltender who can actually be nr. 1 consistently. Tellqvist is decent enough to be able to pick up some games during the season. All in all a good move. Cost them a bit perhaps but like you guys say, Phoenix doesn't really have much of choice here.

    All-Star Game Roster Update

    This retarded...Rafalski is 2nd in points overall among defensemen...and they send a guy who gave the finger to his team for half the season...
  17. SweWings

    Fabian Brunnstrom

    Sure we don't need him but we might want him anyway if he comes for cheap. There's a lot of upside here. And I still dont really understand why he'd WANT to sign with a Toronto that's actively crumbling.

    Pittsburgh-Washington

    The last few Caps games have been real fun to watch and I'm gonna try to watch as many as I can... Always exciting when an underdog starts winning...

    Washington Capitals

    I love this, and the main reason isn't AO - it's Bäckström. 4 assists again in his last game, that makes it 8 in two games. As long as he stays healthy he will likely score the most points among rookies now that he's on a line with AO. And they're closing in on a play-off spot, the next few games will be very important... I hope they make it...

    Fabian Brunnstrom

    He's really developed explosively the past year and he will be picked up by a team during the off-season. Apparently he's given his agent a short-list of teams that he'd like to play for. No teams have been confirmed but the list is rumoured to include the Wings, Canucks and the Leafs (Linky). He is a center tho which isn't exactly what Detroit really needs but if he can get signed to an ok deal then it should be done.

    Impressive Skills....

    I've seen that vid before but it doesn't make it any less impressive... Amazing skill that guy has....

    Leafs fire GM Jay Ferguson Jr.

    Not really unexpected, but the future is going to be painful for the Leafs and the team's fans. I still hold out hope they will buy-out a couple of contracts and have a season or two where they suck, let their young people play and get rid of dead weight.

    Should the wings retire Fedorov's number?

    As much as I love the guy - and I truly want him to come back - his jersey won't be retired...Though I'd love that to happen too...

    Melrose Western Grades

    It's not like any of those grades are shocking. pretty obvious really...
  25. SweWings

    I love the guy, but I gotta admit - Im still surprised.

    Hank winning overall scoring would be cool but I'm also extremely hyped that there are so many players right now on pace to score 50+ goals...and perhaps even top 60...
