  1. Yamamoto to Edmonton at 22. Wanted him at 33

      Same :( great pick by them though, he's got an immense amount of skill. Just hate that it has to be Edmonton.

  2. So Kaprisov looks like he's going to be a Calder threat. Romanov in Montreal too

      Perhaps a bit like 2005-06 with rookies getting an extra half year of development before all coming into the NHL at once.

  3. Hughes really is a rover, isn't he? From the point to going to the front of the net for a tip twice in the same PP, and ends up getting the assist from the point anyway.

      looks like cyclone taylor out there. 

  4. Reminder that Bure was a 113th overall pick, and was number 10

      bure was picked because the canucks found out he had played enough games to be drafted and scooped him the year before everyone else thought he was eligible. he would have gone first over all the following year. so we can say we got a number one pick.

  5.  The X-men Dark Phoenix trailer was actually really good. Though reportedly, they're doing reshoots now which is changing the ending so that it could be a finale if it ends up being the last x men movie before the Disney merger.

      I used to like the X-Men in the early 80's. Then the stories got dumb.

      X-Factor, that was a waste of the original X-men. 

      Eventually I got tired of it.

       

      It's funny I appreciate Batman (mostly, the idea of him needing a sidekick is just stupid, some of his rogues gallery is real stupid too), and Green Arrow, as they are the more grounded heroes. Even if they live in fictional cities. Maybe that's why I like the Longbow Hunters. They took Green Arrow and moved him to Seattle. 

  6. Just watched 'Too Many Cooks', 'Unedited footage of a Bear', 'This house has people in it, and 'Broomshakalaka' back to back.

     

    I loved two of them.

      Too Many Cooks was hilarious, but around minute six it became a little overbearing.

  7. Nothing matters until someone loses a home game

    1. Brad Marchand

      Now watch the home team win every playoff game this year.

  8. What happened to Wennberg's numbers this season?

    1. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      The wrath of Torts? PLD appears their glamour-kid, that'll get every chance at C.

       

      Could see Wennberg to Habbies, easily.. Add a D-man & take back Chucky?

  9. The Sedins should go for 1 fighting major before retiring. Even better? They should fight each other.

    1. BananaMash

      This is like a Goku vs. Vegeta match but way better.

  10. If Burr plays every game remaining on his contract with the Sens, he'll have 1006 games played. So as long as he misses 6 games or less this season and next combined, we'll get to see Burr play NHL game number 1000. For a guy from the ECHL.

    1. Roger Neilsons Towel

      Roger Neilsons Towel

      Pretty amazing accomplishment. 

  11. Will this guy stick with the team?

      Perhaps with the Coilers? An enigma wrapped in a leafy salad, methinks...

  12. Here's what Adam Cracknell is up to. 

     

    1. Cramarossa

      Cramarossa

      Good for him!  I always loved Cracks, seemed like a real heart and soul kind of guy. Happy for his successes as of late.

  13. What is it with Boston College and Boston University and goaltenders?

    1. Jaku

      Jaku

      Unreal developmental system.

  14. I've been watching Hockey Central at Noon more often this Summer and I'm annoyed or disagree with Jeff Marek a lot of the time. 

    1. chon derry

      chon derry

      i think he s the guy that ratted on gudbranson with the threat thing after the toronto game.

  15. It just hit me that Nugent-Hopkins has never played an NHL playoff game. Wow. 

    1. 87Crosby

      87Crosby

      Neither has Eberle, which is worse. Or Hall, and he might not see the playoffs for a while 

  16. The Comet's scheduling is really something. Fri, Sat, Sun for 6 straight weeks.

    1. Cramarossa

      Cramarossa

      What is up with that??

       

      Didn't Demko play all three in a row once and post a couple shutouts in the process? That's crazy. 

  17. Shortly before Boucher scored, the crowd was singing Living on a Prayer during play continuing from when it played in arena during the commercial break. Did this get picked up in the TV broadcast?

  18. Any word on whether Burrows will still be 14 in OTT?

    1. mll

      mll

      Senators's roster page has him with #14.

  19. Anyone else completely unable to sign in to the piece of $&!# that is Outlook (Hotmail)?

    1. AngelicHearts

      AngelicHearts

      Works fine for me.

  20. What's the deadline for the NHL opening day roster? I can't find it anywhere online.

    1. Green Building

      Green Building

      Teams hove to be cap compliant Oct 11th @ 11:59pm, so the day before the regular season starts.

  21. Anyone catch the Etem interview on 1040? Highlights?

    1. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      Yep. Staying in Van the whole summer says there is group of guys staying to workout like Virtanen,Hansen, Gudbranson was there and Burrows and Hansen and Edler before going for vacation. Looking forward to watching Olympics. Wonders if CBC or who shows it here?

       

      Says he needs to use his body and play physical expecting to have a spot on the 3rd or 4th line with a strong summer.

       

      Says they have breakfast and lunch ready for them each day so he likes the set up here and dry weather in Cali anyways.

       

      Likes direction team is going with adding size and speed to complement the skill and is excited to see who they add over the summer.

  22. MG should resign Ehrhoff before the season ends.

  23. Thanks for the compliment. Not enough people realize how much skill Welly has.

  24. Number 42 has been given to Bill Sweatt.

  25. Chicago is in so much cap trouble, it's funny!
