(Wings have not finished their roster -- no goalie)

John Scott to captain the Pacific All-Star team anyway...

That's the "right" call in my opinion. It would have been a shame had he been not allowed to be in it after being voted in.

 

[DonskoiDonscored]

Oh captain my captain

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Good for him. Especially after the penny pinching Coyotes sent him 4000 miles northeast when his wife is due with twins just because they didn't want to pay his salary in the minors.

I hope the Sharks kick the piss out of that team Thursday.

 

[weastern bias]

Just woke up to this glorious news

Three cheers for John Scott! Hip hip!

So will he be wearing the little Coyotes patch then?

 

[The Nemesis]

So will he be wearing the little Coyotes patch then?

Maybe they'll just give him an NHL shield instead. Like jets 2.0 at their first draft. Or the post-breakup USSR at their first Olympics when they were called the CIS.

Or maybe an infinite regression patch of him wearing the Allstars jersey with a patch on the shoulder of him wearing the all star jersey that has a patch on the shoulder... etc

Scott in the ASG. There is a dog!

Maybe they will put on the st johns patch to show where he really is from.

Cam Ward out with concussion; on IR

 

[LadyStanley]

Lightning suspend Drouin for not showing up at tonight's AHL game.

He agent responds....



And the analysis/reaction



http://www.thehockeynews.com/blog/jonathan-drouin-making-it-difficult-to-sympathize-with-his-plight/


With an attitude like that, I think it highly unlikely the Sharks would consider acquiring him for even a bag of pucks.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Ducks just got Ryan Garbutt from Chicago.

I don't want to hear anything from their fans about Torres anymore.

 

[stator]

The NHL should have forced Scott back onto the Coyotes starting lineup as the team captain and 1st line center, starting tomorrow through the All-Star game. Hell, I am for a trial run for Thursday only. If it does not work out, then he can be moved to the AHL.

Ducks @ Caps game cancelled tonight due to weather.

(That'll reek havoc on their travel schedule to find a spot to reschedule.)

Finnish player changes name to Kevin as Starbucks baristas cannot get his name right.

 

[Barrie22]

Nhl season most likely to be extended this season. 2 capital games need to be made due to storms and also 1 flyers game.

Lucic ejected from Kings' Saturday game.

Have to wonder if he'll be fined or miss Sharks game (due to suspension) after comments about official.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

He's a King. You already know the answer.
