Nice column on the Iginla trade, how it worked and why it was a surprise to the league.
Justice will be them losing in the first round to the Rangers, Jets, or Islanders.

The caps are surprisingly only 4 pts behind for the 8th spot after that terrible start. Ovie has been playing pretty damn good lately and Holtby finally settled in. Hopefully they can make a run to get in the playoffs

No, justice would be a seven-game Finals series with the Pens and Blackhawks, with game 7 going to a marathon overtime.

Let me knock one off your teeth and see how fast you hit the deck.

Why don't teams require players to wear a clear mask like this?


They're all about safety yet they allow the entire face to be unprotected:confused:

I'm sure he's been hit with bigger and harder things in his mouth.

Sid actually got his jaw broke on that deflection. Out indefinitely and is expected to be ready for playoffs.

Damn caps gave up a goal with 30 seconds left to eventually lose in ot. Ovie with another goal. He's been on fire the last couple weeks

Love the optimism. They're in if the season ended today but unfortunately for them they've also played more games than anyone else in the Western Conference, and 8 of their last 12 are on the road. Gonna need to keep getting points - particularly in the two games against Nashville and the two games against St. Louis - down the stretch.

When are Dubi and Foligno coming back?

SerBob Is a beast. Need to stock up some points between these games we have coming up. Cant afford to have 3 point games with the preds and blues as well.

Other news:

Blues get Bouwmeester from Calgary. Kings get Regher from Buffalo.

It will be interesting to see if the Jackets are willing to be buyers at the deadline or stand pat. I, for one, don't want them mortgaging any future (that is, trading one of their first rounders) unless it's a very good deal.

Rumors were swirling last night that the CBJ are interested in Pominville. They need a goal scorer. Jackets will be buyers.
