sounds about right…i think he got 2 games off, but also the schedule was more slightly spread b/w end of olympics and restart of nhl season i think…4 days instead of 2 i think.
problem for many will be the hank move then was just a coach decision not player is too hurt to play for us but still played a game in the olympics.

no my greatest fear is slats sells picks and prospects to make the playoffs while taking back more bad contracts when he should sell. they could sit gabby the rest of the year for all i care honestly.
I totally agree, Every year im so excited at this time to see who Sather
will get at the deadline. This year I truly, truly hope he sells………..Vinny and Jokinen specifically. Dont think it’s gonna happen tho. Honestly is just making the playoffs enough anymore?

I won’t do it if it’s the 2010 #1. There’s no point and selling, presumably falling to the 5-10 range, and not having that pick.

From the Puck Daddy story on Gilroy signing with the Rangers:
The Vancouver Canucks, Philadelphia Flyers and Brian Burke’s Toronto Maple Leafs were in the derby; but it’s the New York Rangers that will claim the Hobey Baker winner.

yeah, i’m usually at Nucks Misconduct, Pension Plan Puppets, and Japer’s Rink. those places are usually full of people, but there’s nothing tonight. i looked at a few other places but didn’t find anything.
hasn’t been too bad though, i’ve been working on an epic open thread for NM for tomorrow.

you know this means we should really be selling…prospal had what 5G in 5 games before the break and now sexpanther showcasing himself w 2G tonight…1st round picks for both.
Except Sather will see it as the opposite, that the team is hitting it’s stride, and in will come Ponikarovsky for picks and shit.

i just looked for the info, and found that the new trade period is only 63 hours long, and ends at 12:00 PST on wednesday, so that would work out to 9:00 PST on Sunday evening…..
