I was reading some of the ROR trade thread. Takeaway - sometimes it’s ok to wait and see.

CJ Smith is a nice player.

I just watched the video of all his throws and runs and saw a lot more poise than panic. He left the pocket when he was forced to or when he saw an easy run. Eye of the beholder.

Swedes comprise 8.5% of the league and 8% of the top 50 scorers. How about that!

I imagine a generational defenseman that’s left-handed won’t have a lot of trouble playing on the left if that’s the decision.

Best post I've read all day. Thank you.

I was there. I thought Smith and Pu were the most impressive.

Saw a driver at the Buffalo airport on Aug 12 holding a sign for "V. Antipin".

Bogosian went to locker room with about 5 minutes left. Looked like a foot.

He wasn't injured with the Gophers. He and the Islanders weren't happy with the coaching he was getting and KO left the program in-season.

Regarding the blood clot - I fell into a suite for the Frozen Four. A high profile Lightning employee spent most of the second semifinal with us. He said that Stamkos situation was identical to that of Vasilevskiy this past September and arose after the same type of exercise. The type of exercise in question included the use of hanging ab straps. Lightning trainers have since eliminated the use of ab straps. Take it for what it's worth.

So is it as stated in the first two paragraphs: He wanted to be in the self-proclaimed Center of the Hockey Universe and so did his family. No offense, Buffalo or Detroit. Or San Jose or St. Louis or anyone else. You’re not Toronto. Babcock could have gotten his $50 million at First Niagara Center, too. But he wanted the chance to rescue a desperate Original Six franchise. Or is it as stated in paragraph 13: source familiar with the negotiations agreed, saying Babcock’s issue was far more with the layers of people in the front office and around Terry Pegula. Are we to believe that Babcock would have given up everything he wanted if not for the "layers" and Battista?

Now this is some real genius.

Begonia or bologna?

Forgive me for not providing a link, a picture, or if this has been brought up previously....but I recommend googling "Eichel unicorn". What's not to like about a kid with a sense of humor?

With as poorly as they've been playing, I don't see the Penguins laying down Saturday even if they have clinched. I think it's more likely they use the game to build some momentum. On the other hand, how tight will they be if they need that game to get in? Edit- I was too slow on the iPhone.

Battista? Harrington is right. He has no business daring to speak to a Ted Nolan about anything, let alone an impending trade of a franchise player and the lineup implications thereof. Yeah. He should have refused when Murray told him to give Ted the word.

The first part of the question was along the lines of "are you comfortable with the management structure". Seems like a fully appropriate answer by Murray.

Ten minute ot in medal round, twenty in gold medal game. Shootout if still tied.

I can use them if you still have them. I'll be there with a group of six but can easily get two more.
