Sutter x 2 are out of their minds. Kotalik?
The Rangers should send them flowers every year on 2/1
kotalik played ok in the time he was in edmonton, maybe he impressed.
Pinch me. Danis is getting a start? Whoa.
Against the Leafs? Ya probably.
Christ has this last month been depressing.
Where's that post Yoshi made about the Devils not ever relinquishing the PPG lead in the Atlantic for the remainder of the season? I can't ever miss an opportunity to see him eat his words. I know it hasn't happened yet...
There was a post about never blowing a lead in the 3rd period...
It's the regular season. I still don't think they'll be caught, but does it really matter? The NHL is a corporation that is going to do what is best for the corporation. So we'll have another bullshit, predictable playoff season where convenient match ups happen and marketable winners are produced.Quote:

I'm not buying conspiracy theories - but I do think the cap and rule changes have made the NHL significantly worse.
Carolina is the only reasonably successful "new" market. Pittsburgh's Cup wasn't about the city. It was about the poster boy. Anaheim winning probably pissed the league off.
