Saw that about Burke, yeah I have no issue with what the Canes are doing. It's a bit of fun, something we need more of.

Saw that, figured a shakeup was coming for Philly, didn't think Hextall would be 1st to go though.

Hope he can keep the iron man streak going and get another contract after next season. If so, he'll pass Howe for most NHL games played 29 games into the 20-21 season.

Yep, he would've been able to pass Howe this season if not for the lockouts. I say it all the time, but it's a damn shame guys like Patty and Jumbo missed 1.5 years of their prime.

If not for the lockout, thornton could realistically be closer to 1600 points then 1500 points. Point per game would bring him to about 1550 points.

If it weren't for the lockouts and the recent injuries Jumbo could have made it to top 5 assists all time. But he's not one of the greatest 100 players because a sample size of 160 playoff games outweigh 1500+ games.

I would never project injuries and say what ifs. That is part of the game.

33 grown men having a hissy fit about money is not part of the game.

I would love the Sharks to sign him to a League Min contract for that season and put him on the 4th Line with Thornton and Pavs.

I expected to always wan't patty back, but right now I just feel so indifferent. Must be the current teams issues souring me in general.
