how the puck does the rangers organization not see the defense is what needs help??? staal & girardi, who get all the minutes have had more goals & assists for the opposing team, and year after year they are still put out there, but lets pick up more offense when in post season play, the defense and goalies are most key... another wasted year!

Patrick Kane marvels at Johnny Gaudreau's abilities

Like being able to walk into a bar and not assault a minor? Or use a cab without punching someone?



Or some other abilities?

Kris Russell-to-the-Oilers rumours heating up, TSN reports

Attention in the terminal! Paging dash. Paging dash. Dash, if you are in the terminal please step to the white courtesy phone.

Just what the Oil need - another mediocre lefty d-man!

$4 mil/yr for 6 years should do the trick.

Russell to the Oilers is similar to Andrew Ference to the Oilers from 3 years back only Russell is less talented and probably will get more lol

Medicocre gets you 24 minutes a night in Edmonton though.

Kris Russell does make the Oilers a better team though, the problem is it's still a raging tire fire. Fans won't care much this season though as they have a shiny new building to distract their attention.

The only possible benefit he might provide over what their current defencemen give them is a PP boost. It's worth it if they want to give it a shot for a year but like most Oiler efforts this will probably flame out in the first couple of weeks.

Speaking of which, 8 of the Oilers' first 10 games are against teams that didn't make the playoffs last season. If they fail to capitalise on that their season is pretty much finished by the time November rolls around - their next 10 are all against playoff teams. Should be a blast.

Wow. Really sucks for the Stars, especially considering how deep his draft was.

I bet they win their home opener against the Flames mainly because the Flames generally stink it up in the first game of the season. McJesus scores a hatty and cures a fan in the stands of bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

"So, I'd like get 15?"

Don't blame him one bit. He is a credit to the number.

And as always, Fuck Dallas.

Trade the petulant little commie to Columbus

That'll show him.

I'll take Nichushkin. Dallas could use a Komarov...
