As for the trivia (if Scuderi is the answer that is way too funny) Doug Murray has to be pushing pretty close to Mike Weaver/Scuderi territory.

Or my only other guess was Rob Zettler or Tony Twist.

Why give a 33 year old marginal guy half a season suspension. We all know what it means. Have balls. Ban him for good, don't give him a suspension and let the outcome happen organically.

Tim Erixon on waivers - Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha.

/See eloco, I'm not that nice.

I was told I was going to rue the day he left. I was told he had all the tools. I was told he was a difference maker.

I was told a bunch of damn dirty lies.

the only downside to this news is that I won't get to see him haphazardly flail as Saad blows past him for six games a year.

Murray needs 115 more NHL games without a goal (he has 7).

The answer was Scuderi, but I stated the question incorrectly.

Should have been "Which player in NHL history has played more games than Weaver without scoring more goals?"

As previously mentioned, Scuderi has 8 (in 720 games)

All of this cocaine talk is making me think of an incredibly insensitive joke that I heard. But funny. But verrrrry insensitive. Anyone want to hear it (why am I even asking? :wink:)

Bill Daly: I'd be shocked if we're talking about a couple dozen guys. I don't want to be naïve here … but if we're talking more than 20 guys I'd be shocked. Because we don't test in a comprehensive way, I can't say.

Prepare to be shocked, Bill.
I think he was just talking about one specific party
I think he was just talking about the LA Kings

Alright, so here we go. I bet someone I've never met is going to hate me after this one :wink:

What's the difference between a toddler and a kilo of cocaine?

Is anyone talking about the Raffi Torres suspension anywhere? Or is it just that cut and dry?

I finally feel like the league got it right on this one.

I wanted a full season (82 games), but Torres would have appealed that decision and Bettman would have likely reduced it anyway because Bettman. Torres may still appeal the 41 game suspension.

/What they need to do is follow through and ding the next guy who does something similar to Torres with a hefty suspension, in my world, I don't care if you are a repeat offender or not, you target the head, minimum 20 game suspension.

He's appealing anyway.

I think the league just finally gave a fuck ton of games for this particular incident because it was a nice topic of discussion to overshadow some other unflattering news that came out yesterday.

I hope that's not the case DL. I hope they are really just starting to draw a line in the sand and say enough is enough with the headhunting. Thanks goodness some media blowhard didn't confuse and combine the two stories, "Coked up hockey player suspended 41 games for on-ice drug induced headhunting incident"

I hope Carey Price is up to the pressure of being a #1.

The league is probably ecstatic that it was Torres that did it.
