I think its Budaj from Colorado

TSN said the Raffi Torres could be on the trade block because CBJ is doing terrible. Is anyone interested in him? I think he would be great next to Moen on the third line, and could be capable of stepping up to the top 6 for short periods of time.

Vokoun is from the Czech republic, so probably not.

IMHO Max Pac was sent down because I keep confusing 67 with 57 when Max is on the ice. It's quite a letdown when you think Ben is on the ice but it turns out to be Max.

Someone posted earlier that the canucks were scouting habs defencemen for their playoff push. In addition to Sedin and Kesler at centre they also have Schroeder and Hodgson in the system. Maybe we try and dangle something a little better in an attempt to get one of their top prospects (Hodgson would be amazing in my opinion).

that's why we buy low. if we can trade a pick or maybe a guy like dags for cormier would you do it? he was been to the wjc twice and he was the captain this year. i know this doesn't mean he will become an all-star (see chips), but he is worth the risk. he has probably been reading his own hype lately and feels he is untouchable with of his hits. if we can bring him in i bet JM could read him the riot act and get him back on track.

ever hear of a guy named gordie howe? he also had a tendancy to get the elbows up, thing is people forget that when he scores goals (i'm not calling cormier howe, calm down). my point is i feel cormier's value is much lower after this incident, yet he still has huge potential. also wouldn't it be nice to have the habs being the aggressor as opposed to the ones limping off the ice?

anyone else see this hit by patrice cormier? if the devils are looking to get rid of him i wouold take him in a heartbeat. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAoFY0owFXc...player_embedded

turns 35 on aug 13. http://tsn.ca/nhl/teams/players/bio/?id=31...bname=nhl-stars

i realize salary is an issue, but if you think he is getting anywhere near 5.5 again you need to give your head a shake. He will still be 34 on the first day of free agency so we could sign him for about four years at like 2-3 mil a year but have him retire after two years

turco is a UFA at the end of the season and i wouldn't mind picking him up to mentor whichever goallie we end up keeping. no chance i would ever trade an asset like Halak for him though.

Well Carey did pick up the assist on that goal. Looks like he was taking matters into his own hands

its new to us, but thats what it looks like when players go to the net

Why are so many people calling for a win and you're in system, then crying when their favourite goalie loses and is out?

Turco is a free agent this off season, and with him being 35 Dallas is looking at not re-signing him. Maybe Halak plus a pick goes their way for Neal? Besides could any habs fan really stomach Rebeiro and Plekanec ripping it up on the same team?

if we can't sign plex what about trading him and spaceman for Olli and Dion? Calgary wants an upgrade at centre and we want a big centre. Keep in mind i have checked no one's salary in this, but i think it would beyond screw us cap wise.

TSN has reported both Phaneuf (he denies it) http://tsn.ca/nhl/teams/story/?id=305276&a...name=nhl-flames and Souray http://tsn.ca/nhl/teams/story/?id=305271&a...name=nhl-oilers would be willing to be traded. That do anything for anyone?

http://www.ctvolympics.ca/hockey/news/news...html?cid=rsstsn "Aging American stalwarts such as Mike Modano, Bill Guerin, Keith Tkachuk and Scott Gomez will all be able to rest during the long break in February because they were left off the team." Well he did turn 30 last week. I guess 30 is the new 40.

I think we will need more continuity on the third and fourth line, and to have one of them become a true shut-down line like the ducks had the year they won the cup.

tsn has a more positive outlook, so that's who i choose to believe

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=303801 tsn says gionta and hamrlik will both play

thats why they had to cut theo, it would have confused to many of the flamer fans.

dion is a minus three... not pretty

plex!

Calgary has a lot of top-tier defencemen, and little scoring. Does anyone see us making a trade with them in the near future?
