    Solid start for the Bulldogs who lead 2-0 after 1. Geoffrion had the first goal from Quailer/Gallagher, the second goal may be changed but as it stands, it's Palushaj from Nash and Holland. Bournival celebrated as if he tipped in the Nash point shot so it may be changed to him.

    Would be awesome for Bournival to have scored in his first ahl game. Good to see Holland and Gallagher getting some points even if they are secondary assists.

    Ok, the owners are already claiming $250 mill in losses. How much did the teams that lost money last year lose in total? Maybe the owners need to wake up and share the profits so everyone is happy. Just sayin'

    What i find really strange about their resistance to profit sharing... is that it is practiced in the NFL... so it isn't like its unheard of :/

    Small market owners should really be pushing for it.

    You sure you weren't drinking for three days and think it was only one? :P

    Last night's sim (which still hasn't happened) was game #4, we've done one game each day since monday night.

    Gah, I was away last night and class till... 12am est on tuesday.. that must be my issue :o\

    Was the sim completed last night? Just not posted :(

    Maybe it's time a new league started up?

    Just my opinion though and the past does tend to repeat itself.

    In the past there has been rival leagues when there are cities who have interest in hockey and do not have a club. Cities like Quebec or Hamilton obviously. But cases have been brought to the NHL for Saskatoon, a 2nd Toronto team, Kansas City, Vegas, Houston, Seattle...

    None of these have happened but there are cities wanting teams... that has created at least one rival league in the past.

    I mentioned above that I don't think that there is enough people with mullah to get that started... but if history repeats itself we could see something.

    (more of a devil's advocate bit tbh)

    A major problem I see with that is how we cannot find owners for many of the teams currently in the NHL. Many of the southern teams have had problems, Pittsburgh not to long ago, New Jersey now... How many "wealthy businessmen" are there in this economy willing to start up teams, which on average is not a money making venture I'm pretty sure.

    Plus the only example of this is the WHA which did in the end fail.. not exactly something they could look to for advice.

    It is true that the talent pool is deeper now.. but I don't see where the money would come from, unless it was similar to the CFL where there would only be like 6-8 teams who pick up cast offs or up and "situation" guys. Still the size of the league would limit the amount of actual pressure they would inflict on the NHL.

    I have been wondering all along with the GLUT of players out there why we haven't signed higher end guys?

    just an idea because i have no idea... but a lot of those higher end ahl'ers go overseas and AHL teams don't have the same amount of money say... the habs do to spend on roster players I wouldn't think.

    freaking Perezhogin out for a week....THAT sucks.

    Rough :/

    If you lose because of an injury that would be lame :/

    Good Luck!

    Minor hiccup here in game three I trust our boys to turn it around in game 4. No changes needed yet I don't think..........

    You should play the line we talked about earlier in the season ;)
