Four weeks from this coming Saturday (September 10) is the first game of the Traverse City tournament, which is on MSG. If you’re really freaking out, MSG+ is replaying our victory over the Kings from this past season on Friday night. My approach is to pacify myself with pre-season football until hockey starts.

Maybe Joe Mic meets a nice young Swedish boy with good pace and Jam…decides not to come back. Sam does the rest of the season solo.

by Gabby the Gutless Sniper on Aug 7, 2011 2:00 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

I like Sam and all but he’s definitely losing it.

I miss jd :(

Not looking forward to when they try to replace sam

They need to replace Joe with Dave

Kevin Weekes for color analyst (no pun intended). He’s really good on TSN and as a guest on MSG.

lmao I’m sorry but thats hilarious.. just how u put in no pun.

I like Kevin Weekes though. He’s a good analyst.

It would be cool, but I could see Sam awkwardly letting a few racial remarks slip.

Take it to the net and keep jamming and jamming until somebody comes on you.

Not at all

But he’s VERY awkward. He might say something completely innocuous but that could be misinterpreted, try to take back the comment, and just spiral downwards from there.

I think I get what you’re saying but I still say no… he has plenty of public speaking experience. I understand hockey is not the most racially diverse sport… but football is and if im wrong correct me but I don’t think he ever said anything inappropriate during a NFL game.

Speaking of Juniors

Andrew Yogan was traded to Petersborough.

I was hoping the Rangers brass could convince Adam Graves to trade for Yogan so he could center Thomas.

He is eligible to play in Hartford, and that is what he claims his goal is.

Bassin said Petes officials plan to use Yogan on a line with Austin Watson and Matthew Puempel, a pair of skilled scorers and NHL first-round picks. However, Yogan, an unsigned prospect with the New York Rangers, will first attempt to earn a roster spot with the Whale in training camp in September.

Or maybe his goal is just to not go back to Canada.
