Yep. I'll be at most of the games this season.

I'll be there!
Caught up briefly w Sami Salo recently. Says he would like to play this season but is still recovering from a wrist injury. Not healthy yet
Well if anyone wants to meet up for a drink, let me know. First round on me.
Just bought tickets for the 10/11 game against Ottawa on SH. Had the ten game weekend plan for past 4 years but wife wants to buy a new house so we passed on season tickets this year. Gotta compromise sometimes.
For those who want to go to a preseason game, tickets are very cheap on StubHub. Plenty of seats available for 9/23 against Nashville, 9/26 against Dallas, and 10/4 against Florida, priced starting less than $6/seat.
Whats the over/under for number of trades SFY does before home opener.
Did you know that Steven Stamkos wants to be killed in a horror movie? No, seriously. That's what's included in the cover article on Stamkos in NHL preview edition of The Hockey News that is out now.
Also, Stamkos skates in a specific pattern before each game and chews on a few sticks of gum. Unlike coach Jon Cooper, Stamkos actually spits out the gum before the game starts.
Here's a picture of the cover
The magazine predicts the Bolts to finish second in the atlantic division behind the Boston Bruins.
Stamkos is also predicted to win the Maurice Richard Trophy for scoring the most goals in the league and to finish as runner-up behind Sidney Crosby for the Art Ross and Hart trophies.
The Hockey News staff also predicts Jonathan Drouin to win the Calder Trophy for best rookie a year after Tyler Johnson and Ondrej Palat finished as finalists for the award.
And the magazine also predicts the Lightning to play in the Stanley Cup Final vs. the Blackhawks.
The team practicing Stammers baseball goals during today’s informal skate, well worth a watch (though I have a hard time seeing which players those are):

Well I would say ZERO BUT BUT BUT you hear names things like johanson and others out there and I think if they continue to get really ugly stevie might stick his head out and fleece someone lol
I doubt we can fleece anyone on 12 million for 2 years . Unless they're willing to take Carle+ back the other way
Palat and Johnson in white. Panik/Barberio/Connolly in blue.
The other question would be where we would put him, unless 3C is an option if they move T. Johnson to the top-6 but I still think that having him as the 3C would be a lot better.
Can't pay $6m for a 3C. Johansen isn't realistic for us, IMO, even without our cap issues. We have a log jam down the middle. Johnson, in my mind, is about as perfect as it gets for a 3C, and he's a guy you can plug into the top-six when needed.
I also wouldn't want to deal with Johansen's agent. That guy sounds like a breeder of ill will. Every time John Davidson goes on a radio show, it sounds like he's lost a little bit more of his mind over this.
We gave Tyler Johnson and Ondrej Palat $3.3m, and they've been proving it at lower levels for a few years now. Johansen wants almost double that after one big (and it was big) season. But this is a guy who was a healthy scratch in the AHL the previous year. It's kind of insane.
