Andrew Ladd has played 5 solid games in a row after being moved to the 3rd line, and I think he is solid in a roster spot at this point, 2 goals and 3 points last night, named the game's #1 Star. I am really impressed with the way he has stepped up....thought you would like to know.

Thanks, Tom! Nice to get the close-up observation from a fan.
Hope he keeps up the effort. He has the ability... and seems like a good guy.

I was sorry to hear about Martin Brodeur - he is a legend. Hope he can come back from this.

Glad my Hurricanes were able to hang on, after yacking up the lead and going into overtime. Toronto showed some grit. Interesting season so far.
