News and Notes XXI: The Dog Days of Summer

[SeaBasstian]

Scott knows whats up. Awesome to see. He is ready to be a part of the group that brings us out of the depths of non-playoff hockey and back to meaningful late may and more importantly June hockey.

Unless I'm mistaken, we have now added 8 Stanley Cup wins to our team. That's incredible and invaluable experience. Tough to argue it won't add up to much improved effort.

Justin Williams: 3 Cups
Scott Darling: 2 Cups
Trevor van Riemsdyk: 2 Cups
Markus Kruger: 1 Cup

Ah gotcha. thanks. regardless that's amazing. quality additions for sure

 

[NotOpie]

That's awesome.

I've never been one for cockiness (karma and all), but I really like the confidence that's getting exuded by the players, both old and new.

Plus we had added Teuvo and his one cup last season.

It's almost like they're not OK with losing. That's not something we're used to around here, but I like it.

notes: i like this guy

Well, I don't. With all the lovely golfing that he could be doing down here, he chooses to golf in Chicago why? Clearly he doesn't actually want to play for us.

 

[Unsustainable]

 

[Wolfpuck]

Kruger will have 16. Lindholm will switch to 28.

Kruger will have 16. Lindholm will switch to 28.

Or Kruger to 32?

 

[robbieberns]

Was hoping Slavin could snag 7. We were close with the Wallin family when they were down here, so I'll always have a fondness towards the number.

I don't like that we have 3, 4, 8, and 9 all available.

3 and 9 are out of circulation out of respect for Steve Chiasson and Gordie Howe, respectively. Fleury wears 4.

3 and 9 aren't in circulation. I think Fleury has 4.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Technically 3 and 9 aren't available. They're unofficially retired for Chiasson and Howe.

 

[Dishface]

I thought 3 was retired for Dale Earnhardt

I'll show myself out.

Because it's July

 

[CandyCanes]

I'm a fan or big numbers for some reason. I'm still waiting for the day a Canes player wears #93, I will be buying their jersey.

 

[CandyCanes]

So I think this needs to be debated. But if we were to of won the McDavid lottery. Who would be wearing #97, Stormy or McDavid?

 

[raynman]

Because it's July

AKA go outside at your own peril. It's amazing how hot it's been the last little while. I've lived here nearly 20 years and really should be used to it by now but the past week has pushed me to my limit. Especially with no AC in my car.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Scott knows whats up.

Strange, that song said he doesn't know.

 

[garnetpalmetto]

Because it's July

Pfft. This guy is a professional athlete. If the poor baby can't stand a little humidity, maybe he shouldn't have signed here. I hear Magnitogorsk is lovely this time of year.

Or Kruger to 32?

The roster has him as 16

 

[Roboturner913]

Looks like Lindholm is switching to 28.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Isn't 59 unofficially retired also?

 

[vorbis]

so would this be in Curtis Joseph's place?

 

[Joe McGrath]

Isn't 59 unofficially retired also?

63 is. Kuokkanen currently has 59 assigned to him.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

I thought 3 was retired for Dale Earnhardt

I'll show myself out.

Well, there are... um... similarities.
