I figured since we've been talking about it all day, those of ice with Center Ice will be tuned in to the game tonight, might as well keep each other amused as we pray for Olli Jokinen's continued good health.

Higgins and Kots for Prust and Olli is what they reported.

That rumor is also freakin’ useless.
Messier has zero experience, and is about as dumb a choice as could be made to replace Sather. Or even be his ‘understudy’ at this point.

If this does go through I think it’s a shrewd move by Sather. You dump long term salary and you take a flyer on a really talented guy. If he doesn’t work you still have time to flip him at the deadline to a contender for a pick (maybe get the 3rd rounder we wasted on Boyle back). If it does work and they show some sustained signs of life, maybe you change your thinking a little. Just a VERY little. Slats demonstarted last year that he is capable of getting able bodies with expiring deals.

from hendricks hockey:
Calgary is still a significant player in the Kovalchuk sweepstakes. Calgary is working hard to clear the room to add Kovalchuk. They feel if they can clear the room now they will make a huge offer before the deadline and if not they can still get him on the UFA market. The Rangers and Kings have also made offers for Kovalchuk but it appears the Rangers offer was very low. If Atlanta would allow serious teams to talk to Kovalchuk and his agent they would have much bigger offers coming in. The Kings seem to be putting in a very good offer, we will see what happen’s.

nah. I think he’ll just come and play from the get-go.
But I have this strange feeling that this was the year to win it. And we should be there, considering how we horrifically outplayed the Saints… and now it’ll be a while before we get another opportunity.

just saying in the cap era, when u go short and cheap it costs u more cap space later. we already did that with dubi and cally and will end up paying more in a year than if we had gone 3-4 years this past summer is my point.

Calgary management must be on crack. I don’t think any of these recent trades for them have resulted in a net advantage. They looked awful tonight. Not that I care!
Great move for us, and in a way, I’m more excited about Prust than Jokinen. A little more toughness is what we need.
And no more watching Kotalik and Higgins MISS THE NET.

A post by a Flames fan explains it all lol
Flames fans breathe a sigh of relief now that Joker’s unproductiveness and massive contract are gone, but the faces of relief quickly change to faces of disgust at the mediocrity of Kotalik and the fact that they just got an American Joker in Higgins and he’s sticking around for 2 more seasons.
I realize I`ll be crucified by my fellow Canuck fans for saying this, but I really like Nigel Dawes. Beautiful hands and great speed, awesome pick up for Calgary management, do you guys think Sutter will take Bernier and his stone hands for him?

also, on the other hand, seeing as how Jokinen and Prust played last night, think the Rangers will want to dress them up?

since only higgins is the only roster player traded in the deal from NY standpoint i doubt you’ll see them play until the next game

They are most likely heading to NY soon, I’m guessing within the half hour.

In case you haven’t heard, #NYRangers-#Flames deal done. Jokinen and Prust expected to join Rangers in LA for game vs. #Kings.
