So yeah, Perry resigned with the Ducks. Interesting, because I heard throughout the summer that he was gone to Toronto for sure

Somewhere, Leaf Nation is beginning to cry just a little. All will be calm in an hour though, when one of them creates the following rumor: Steven Stamkos, Victor Hedman, and John Tavares are all heading to Toronto in a three team trade. The Isles are getting Grabovski and a 7th round pick, and the Lightning are getting Komisarek, Liles, and next year's 7th round pick. Oh, and the Lightning are picking up half of Stamkos' contract.

Happy for Ducks fans.

Leaf fans are a rare bird, met many over the years at Sabre games... good folks though, just cup deprived....

I know plenty of Leaf fans ... I get a kick out of reminding them that we've made the playoffs more recently than them. You're right, good people, just a bit ... off.

They are so much fun to mess with

Looks like the Wild are for real, if so good for them... good rebound after Lamaire was god...

The guys on TSN's TH2N had high praise for Patrick Kane tonight.

"Second best player in the league" - Jamie Mclennan

"One of the best two-way players in the game"

This is news to me (not sarcasm), I hadn't noticed his overall game in a while. Can anyone confirm/reject these statements?

Patrick Kane RW 29 16 21 37 +15 20:14 - 12 pp pts

Throw in a 20% shooting pct and 2 penalty mins and 4 for 7 in SO's I say they might be on to something.

I think his hockey IQ is rising.

The Pens win 10 in a row.... I'd love to test the CBJ with a rested Bob vs those guys...

Lars Eller is looking really impressive this year. He looks really strong, and has some sick dangles and playmaking. He was always a guy who had really good two way play, but folks weren't sure if he'd ever be more than a shutdown center. Already this year he looks like a 2nd line center, who might still have Ryan Kesler upside.

We are going to be talking a lot more come summer about Jarmo's 2007 draft in St. Louis, and I don't want anyone saying "Eller who? Must be a bust." He's a good find, as is Perron.

#NYR Can confirm that Rangers GM Glen Sather will undergo surgery in NY Thurs for prostate cancer, as 1st reported by @stevezipay

San Jose, who is in 8th place. Is losing 3-1 to Edmonton in the 3rd. If the lose then we will still be tied for 8th, but Edmonton also enters the frame, tying us in points.


EDIT: Annnnd San Jose just tied it...

It's too early to start rooting for teams.

If you want to make the playoffs, just root for games that end in regulation. If you want to get the best draft pick possible, root for overtime games.

Well they're going to overtime. Now we're no longer tied for 8th.

In that case, hope for the shootout.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Sharks win. 2 points out.

3, if you want to get technical. Columbus can finish with 66 points, and right now Detroit is the team with the 8th-most possible points in the West with 69. San Jose is 2 points up in the actual standings, but 4 points ahead in possible points.

 

[Dr. Fire]

Avs helped us beating Dallas, but the Oiler v Sharks game was the worst case scenario with both teams gaining points.

Just gotta keep winning.

 

[CBJSprague24]

Hey, we should go to this!

 

[db2011]

Nash just made a hit he may get disciplined for

 

[db2011]

Panthers 3:1 Rangers








Florida had a shutout going til just over 3 mins, that woulda been nice. Worth noting, a little over a minute left, Rangers down 1, Tortorella puts 5 forwards out for a center ice faceoff... and Nash wasn't one of them.

[Matthew]

WTF is he doing there

 

[The Four Seven]

Topic on the mains called "the Rick Nash trade killed the Rangers".

Is it mean that I belly-laughed when I read that?
