Looking forward to seeing Matt Stajan in South Korea next February.

It should be that way. The players are employees of the teams. Just like Lou Lam won't allow his players to look like men, by growing facial hair, teams should allow their players to make their own rules. The PA is pro-Olympics, so you won't see any pushback from them if certain teams let their guys go.

Wings also put Alexei Marchenko on waivers - 6'2" right shot defenseman, Flames should be in on the action.

It's too bad Chris Osgood didn't finish the job. It looked like he was SO close.

Lucky Pierre: Mike has had some issues from time to time.

Yeah, settling an assault case to avoid jail time is just "issues", Pierre.

Given the Garth's history as GM they'd just end up being called the Whylanders.

I'm sorry but no. The Mall is still a dump. Just move them to Quebec.

Got to think the Islanders will be moving, Hartford could be as good a spot as any.
