Ongoing NHL thread - Part III

Ruff must be locked in an insane asylum right now. Yikes.

The Stars (like the Flames) have a ton of money tied up in goaltending and frankly, I don't have much faith in any of those guys currently.

I've been advocating this for around 16 years.

No, they've really dug a hole both in the budget and in the crease with those two. To commit 15% of your cap space to two goalies and not get quality netminding out of either is nuts.

Rumo(u)rs are out there that the Kings and Kopitar are close to signing a 8 year extension worth around 9.75 million per season. Holy schniekies, that's probably the GDP of Slovenia.

That...that is a lot of money for a guy who hasn't been his old self for over a year.

wonder if lombardi is already pulling together a "personal problem" on Kopi so he can get out of the new contract

Lombardi: Kopi, we want to offer you an 8 year deal at around 10m per.
Anze: Really? Wow. Thanks. That's a big commitment.
Lombardi: Yeah, we're not worried about it.
Anze: You know about that night in Singapore, don't you?
Lombardi: Yup. And if your production slides, everyone else will too.

Lombardi : " Hey Kopi before i get you to sign this amazingly huge contract that i am sure to never regret ... can you swallow these condoms filled with baking soda "

Scuderi is moving up the ranks in the Metro. And I fully support it, because the All-Star game is a joke, so why not treat it like one?

I'd like to see 10 games, but I'll be surprised if he even gets 2.

You're much too young to be this cynical, pix.

/Leave it to an old codger like me.

I'm more inclined to watch the game if it's 3 on 3 with those two on teams. I mean...just imagine. There's only 9 skaters a team right? That means Robert Scuderi will be on the ice, on 3-on-3, vs elite and speedy players, for one third of the game. Brilliant. Just brilliant.

I always wanted Leafs to not go to the ASG because the break is more beneficial.

Of course today I don't think any Leafs save the mandatory 1 will be there, so...let's vote for Komarov.

That was a brutal hit. Should be a hefty suspension.

Should is the operative word, of course.
