So speaking of the Clarkson deal and cap circumvention, I wonder, if there was a guy like Jagr playing at age 43, could the Devils have pulled off that (fuck)Kovy deal with no penalty? The biggest argument back then would be that the Devils did not intend to have him playing at the end of the contract. A player currently playing at that age would derail that argument. Would it have made a difference? Is it sad I'm still thinking about this?

Has that happened to you again comeds?

Well she was really pretty and I thought she was just really into me when she was asking my age, blood type, and family medical history.

Martin's a sack of crap. He took out Keith Ballard a couple of months ago with a flying elbow, and his latest NHL victim/defenseman is Trevor Daley. Daley did not return to the game after taking this knee on knee hit last night, and it's being reported Daley could miss weeks from this hit.

Martin has a phone call awaiting him to determine his immediate future. The ol wheel O Justice will be spun in Martin's honor.

Yikes, that's pretty bad (as in 4-5 games bad). I wouldn't be opposed to more games, either.

I find knee on knees to be really tough to gauge in terms of intention...but yeah, he stuck his knee out there pretty obviously. I mean, I hate the guy for my own very old reasons.

EDIT: watch on mute...Steiggy was in special form this game.

Can Jagr play goal? Both Florida goalies injured in same game could both miss time

I for one believe Mike when he says this story is BS, he's been a stand up character throughout his NHL career.

She didn't say what he allegedly did. High sticking in the pantry?

I don't really care much about intentions, since I figure they won't matter much to the surgeon who operates on my knee. If you're reckless with your knee, you deserve whatever you get.

I've been playing this game for over 30 years and I've never gotten a kneeing penalty and/or hit someone knee on knee (whereas I've been hit knee on knee in both non-contact and full contact games quite a few times). I don't think I've just been lucky in that regard.
