Jokinen also plays wing. I believe he is good friends with Koivu and they could be a very good fit together on the same line. Also, he could serve as the Koivu succession plan.

That's like 240 goals for and 220 goals against.

A right-handed shot on the power-play would allow Markov to move over to Souray's old side and we would have 2 one-timer options. Between the 2 of them, I could see 80% of Souray's power play goals replaced.

well my hope is that souray is only staying on market to serve as a diversion so bob can sign the other defenseman he wants

And he may already hate the traffic by now.

10.3% is California state taxes on top of the 35% federal he'd pay. Millionaires pay no taxes if they can set up corporations, but I don't think hockey players can get away with this.

When you add Higgins after all-star break stats he has about a half-season being on pace for over 50goals and one of the top scorers in the league. So Plekanec has not yet shown us as much as Higgins at NHL level. At one point some people were calling Higgins a franchise player. But I think Plekanec out-scored Higgins in their last AHL seasons, and I agree he looks very good on top two lines currently.

Well, I hope the one immigrant family in the town took heed not to "kill women by stoning them in public, burning them alive, burning them with acid, circumcising them etc."

I think Marleau is signed through next year, but his playoff numbers are actually better than his regular season numbers. Marleau's playoff numbers last 3 years: GP G A Pts +/- 11 9 5 14 +2 17 8 4 12 0 12 6 5 11 +3

RDS showed it again - Murray high-sticked Rivet as he was trying to clear the zone. Should not have been a goal; may have something to do with Koivu-Murray incident after

Bonk finally misses Thomas! And RDS showed Rivet getting high-sticked to face when he tried to clear the puck on Bruins' 2nd goal

Last year Mike Ribeiro had 16 goals, 51 points. This year, he's on pace for 16 goals 57 points. And he plays primarily on the power play. Why would we have gotten more out of a trade by waiting? By trading him in the preseason, Gainey may have found someone willing to take a chance on the upside of his "new attitude" and summer of skating lessons. But it turns out, his stats are the same - there's been no "breakout". And in Montreal, he would have a horrible plus minus playing with Kovalev and Samsonov.

Well I was pretty skeptical of Lats being on the first line yesterday, but I'm ready to admit I was wrong. Begin did also play a gutsy game, but Lats did more offensively. And its not just RDS claiming Lats was our best player - Sportsnet West (Edmonton broadcast) gave him the 2nd star after Smyth. If you call it down the middle, I think you have to admit that Lats played a great game on the first line. He did not look out of place at all. I also did not agree with Carbo's choice to put him in the shootout, but I disagree with about half the shootout choices anyways so I guess the coach can get the benefit of the doubt for a hunch, espescially if we end up winning.

you're getting the game on center ice? i thought you need versus? i couldn't set my dvr to record the game because i have dish network which has a contract dispute with versus. if its on center ice im ditching work right to go watch the game right now!
