Color me disgusted. Scotty Bowman better be on that phone tonight.

Sharks are right there also. Normally they wait till the playoffs to collapse. Guess they just figured they would do it early. Sad about both the Hawks and Sharks.

Tomorrow should be interesting. Cant see the Sharks making a move fir Nash. some Sharks dont seem to like him. Cant see them giving up much. unless they trade boyle for nash

Yea things look real bad right now. Hopefully they get it out of their system. As far as Nash goes I'd rather keep boyle. I just don't think Nash is a good fit in san jose

Suprised his skates stayed on. Holy Shizz that dude got wrecked.

Ahbroody · 02-27-2012, 01:03 PM

Hes a great player though. Boyle is still very sought after and the Sharks have some good young D.
Doubt it will happen, but rumors are rumors and heard he might be on table.

Today is always exciting.

icehog3 · 02-27-2012, 02:35 PM

Hawks get Oduya, he is an upgrade from Lepisto, O'Donnell, Montador and Scott.

Speaking of Scott, the Rangers just got themselves the NHL's reigning heavyweight champ.

Bruins Fan · 02-27-2012, 03:03 PM

The Bruins reacquire Brian Rolston, and pick up Mike Mottau and Greg Zanon.
Now that will make us all warm and fuzzy.
We had Rolston ten years ago and he could have been claimed off wavers yesterday for free

Mottau has a head like an eggshell,he will never play, Zanon for Kampfer,we would have taken a bag of pucks for Kampfer.
This is moves just to make moves and does nothing for the team.
JJ can now keep the 13 million in cap money in the bank.

I cannot believe the Canucks traded Hodgson to Buffalo for Kassian. I know Kassian is big with decent skills, vut I think Cory is a potential star. Hope it comes back to bite them.

I think Hodgson is better than Kassian right now.

Understood. But maybe they don't...

I hear Gragnini is pretty good. I dislike the Canucks though so would love to see it bite them in the arse.

Flames stand pat...(yawn). Pretty indifferent to this actually (Sort of like the entire Flames org.)

I got just two words for you...Olli Jokinen.

Well, the Flames are still primed for a run at the post season, so you gotta be happy with that, Brett.

At the end of the day this is true.

I still would prefer that they unloaded some vets and tanked some to get a better draft position. That isn't always the best answer for sure but some of us are pretty tired of the maddening mediocrity of these guys. Good enough to battle for 8th but not bad enough to build something worth while.

8th is better than 9th or 10th.

We all can't be Detroit

E.J. · 02-28-2012, 07:13 AM

Avs win again & I actually was able to watch it.

After giving up that late goal in the 2nd, I wondered how they'd come out in the 3rd....and it was ON FIRE!

Good to see Duchene out there and this Downie character, 5 games and 7 points with the Avs....NICE! Landeskog is playing amazing....who knows, maybe they will sneak in.

I'm sorry to see Winnick go, I really liked him. Not to say I didn't like TJG, but I thought Winnick was under-appreciated. I don't know anything about McGinn, but like what I am hearing/reading.

GO AVS!

icehog3 · 02-28-2012, 08:25 AM

McGinn is solid, and Downie was a nice pick-up, E.J.

Ahbroody · 02-28-2012, 10:03 AM

McGinn trade is tough. As a Sharks fan hate to see him go. He was playing very well and is a stud. The PK was horrid though and this trade was made to attempt fix it. Not sure who won this one if anyone. One things for sure. The Sharks are sucking hard and they had to do something to shake things up a bit.

Ahbroody · 02-28-2012, 11:12 PM

Winnick was awesome in his Sharks debute getting third star tonight.
Game got extremely chippy at the end.
