4 yr 30 mil? yikes. who do you think its from? as much as i want him, hopefully not us.

Local Pitt writer says they need to move Paul Martin to sign Parise/Suter and reup Crosby. If they are looking to free up cap, could probably get him for cheap. MCG- DannyG - Staal- Matin -MDZ -Erixson in any order, or even makes MDZ open for trade as long as (Sauer/Stralman/Bickle) can hold the 6th spot. Thoughts?

Oh great, NYR get to open the season in LA with the banner raising ceremony.

Hey guys, our friends over at Hockey Wilderness the Minnesota Wild blog is having a Mock Draft contest with the grand prize being a $25 gift card to the NHL.com store. All you have to do is make a fanpost on their site with your mock draft

I wouldn't normally do this, but I just posted this over at Wingin' at Motown, the SBN Red Wings blog. Just a reminder that hockey means little in the grand scheme of things. http://www.wingingitinmotown.com/2012/6/5/3066756/bryan-rufenach-wings-prospect-dies-at-23 "I've never posted here at Wingin' but Bryan was a fellow 2011 graduate at Clarkson University, where I got to work with him, watch him play, but more importantly get to know him off the ice once and a while. Great kid, such a shame."

Hey all, first time post...long time reader and lifelong Ranger fan. Came across this BS article regarding how our Rangers are destroying hockey as they "bore us to death". As I said, I am a lifelong Ranger fan and have only seen one professional sports team see more of an anti-them bias, the Oakland Raiders. What gives? We are on the brink of becoming a dynasty and what happens? The league will reformat it's rules to hold our style back. Where was this reformatting when the Devils destroyed Hockey for 15 years with that horrid trap? BTW, Gary Bettman was just on his state of the league presser talking about how revenue is up, and the game is more popular then it has been in the last 15 years.

If you have some time to kill before Game 6, i recommend watching this movie. I've watched it many times before Ranger games and it only makes me appreciate the game more, win or lose. I've put a youtube link so you don't have to pay for it. Hey, it beats watching the NBC pregames. LGR
