  1. As mentioned by a couple on here...Fletcher knows that IF Sundin wants to play next year there is a very good chance he will choose to play for Montreal. This has been speculated by many reporters the last couple weeks. Fletcher has managed to work a way to get a decent player from Montreal should Sundin decide to play. The article below sums it up quite well. Especially this comment:

    "Mats has always been interested in Montreal. Montreal is trying to see if they can sign him now — and then we'll go from there," said Fletcher, adding: "It would be better if you guys hadn't found out."

  2. Just to clarify. I was watching the Calgary game last night inwhich McGuire reported that Tanguay has agreed to waive the NTC. He said that many teams are now pursuing Tanguay. I am sure if Tanguay is willing to waive his NTC that he is only going to waive it to go to certain teams.

    NTC have a lot more to do with bargaining power than actually staying in the city they hold the contract. They get to dictate where they can be traded too. Tanguay is no longer on the 1st line or the 1st powerplay. He may be soft but I for one think his offensive and defensive talent are highly valuable.

  3. you have to watch 2 girls and 1 cup before... but i'll not be posting this in here...

    I will never forgive you for even mentioning the existence of the original video. This is going to haunt me the rest of my life. :puke:

    While I would more comforted knowing that it were fake...it isn't. Especially the "second half", there is no way that is fake.

  4. I haven't heard a lot about these two guys. Valentenko is playing in Hamilton and I believe is he is starting to get comfortable in his surroundings. He is getting more ice time as well as time on the PP.

    Emelin is playing for AK Bars in the Russian league and doing ok. He was in the centre of a bench clearing brawl last week and I think he got suspended as a result.

    That is all I know.

  5. He is an upgrade over most of the teams 3rd and 4th liners. He is worth Ryder IMO who is sure to leave at the end of the season. He is certainly an upgrade over Smolinski, Dandenault and Begin.

    Word is Stoll has finally regained his scoring pace from the past couple seasons. The concussion he got last year made for a slow start to the season. The guy plays 19 mins per game and has also improved his defensive play...and you guys think he is only slighly better than Smolinski?

    BTW, where does it say this on the TSN site?

  6. Well since Gainey said that he may look for someone that is good on faceoffs if the team can't turn that aspect of the game around...I expect to hear alot of rumours involving experienced centres in the near future.

    Some guys that are very good at faceoffs and have spent some time in the rumour mill this year are:

    Malholtra

    Marleau

    Fedorov

    Stoll

    Armstrong

  7. I could see something like Marleau and Bernier but I doubt Gainey ever trades Koivu unless he asks for it.

    Pure speculation; but I wouldn't doubt that he has quietly requested it (although this would never be released to the media). There have been Sharks rumours for months so this is quite possible. I love Koivu but it may be time to see a new leadership change.
