Ongoing NHL thread - Part deux

[DragonfromTO]

How far are we taking the word miracle here? Because my proposed Cody Hodgson for Crosby and Malkin trade would surely have helped the competitiveness.

Thank you for not using "compete" as a noun

Honestly I didn't have a problem with ties in the first place. I mean obviously in a perfect world I'd want sudden death until someone scores, but I get why they don't want to do that. But I didn't mind having ties.

I agree - it beats kissing your sister or so I've been told.

Agreed. Everyone knows it is an adjective.

Rick DP update

I had never realized how much Rick admired Don Cherry. I actually saw this flipping channels...surprised Butch Gorings head didn't explode

Dallas Stars ‏@DallasStars 5m5 minutes ago
#Stars assign Curtis McKenzie and Brett Ritchie to @TexasStars.

So I haven't heard about any supplemental discipline for Ritchie for that butt-end last night, but it's interesting to note that Texas plays Adirondack tomorrow night.

Jackets lines for tonight against NJ.

*sigh*

What could have been...

Man, Bjorkstrand is going to be in tough to crack that lineup next season.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Go Columbus Go! You too Carolina.

I wonder who Clarkson displaces

Yikes. That's really ugly.

Gotta be some time on popcorn row for that one. Or in Buff's case popcorn-cheeseburger-corndog-nachos-onion rings-chocolate sundae-and-a-dozen beers row.

Drew Miller (like Eddie Lack) almost lost an eye tonight.

Bjorkstrand will be fine. I expect the Jackets to trade a few forwards for assets at the draft. As much as I like Calvert and Atkinson, I don't expect them to stick around. Anisimov probably won't stay either. They are all good, but not better than what is waiting. Bjorkstrand, Anderson, Milano and Rychel all have a shot at making it out of camp. Dano and Wennberg are clearly here to stay. Karlsson looked good as well. Poor guy may be the new Cody Goloubef though. He won't get a great look through no fault of his own.

Morin, Skille, Letestu , Tropp, Gibbons and Boll all need to consider life after Columbus.

I wonder who Clarkson displaces

For the love of God, please let it be Jared Boll.

Holy shit

Another fine upstanding moment in the career of a true leader who helps root out locker room problems.

Throw the fucking book at that prick.
