Nice contract. Florida has themselves in a really, really good place cap-wise. Wonder if Tallon gets busy next month and goes after some of the bigger names.

Why bother? They've already got Stanley Cup winning goal scorer Dave Bolland coming back

20 games for Shawn Horcoff and a forfeiture of $357,526 for violating the terms of the NHL/NHLPA Performance Enhancing Substances Program.

I'm not sure what PED's Horcoff was using, but they sure didn't seem to be doing much good.

At least he made history dash by being the 1st NHLER suspended for PEDS

Actually, Sean Hill and Zenon Konopka beat him to the punch, Judge.

In case you're wondering, Gretz is racing against Sugar Ray Leonard, Bjorn Borg, and Pele above.

Going to be difficult to trade Horcoff for Burrows now

At least Bolland has a buyout-able contract.

Much like when Rafael Palmiero got busted, you really need to consider how bad he would have been without them.

The war room in Toronto is apparently having an absynthe party.

I can actually thank the refs for blowing a no goal call. I am not sure that has ever happened. That was totally a goal.

Jackets sweep the Habs in back-to-back games.

Either the Habs are really bad or John Tortorella's "accident" and subsequent absence are just what the team needs.



Maybe both.
