Son of a Wing 1,644 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 As seen on Kuklas Korner via Inside The Kings, Rob Blake doesn’t expect to be back on the ice before the Feb. 26 trade deadline, which could obviously affect his tradeability.

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Fine! We don't want that gimp anyway. He can stay in LA and rot on that last place team till the end of his career. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
