Burke calls the Kaberle to Boston rumors a "total fabrication."

Dr. Sak · 03-02-2009, 09:52 AM

So that means it is going to happen.

Hunwick was all over the place while playing wing with Savard and Kessel last game. He scored the first goal and added an assist. He may not go back to the blueline at this rate.

So what's the deal with Guerin?

Pyser · 03-02-2009, 06:17 PM

devils trade salmella (minor league dman) to atl for havelid and a prospect.

Dr. Sak · 03-03-2009, 07:40 PM

Do the Bruins' coaches teach their players to turn their back when taking a hit so they get boarding calls?

bbor · 03-03-2009, 07:52 PM

Leafs sit out Antropov and Moore from tonights game VS the Devs.Look for them to be dealt tommorrow.

I think Scott Hartnell sees someone's back to him at the boards and sees a green light.

Yeah I guess he should be able to stop a foot from him on a dime. Burgeron did it twice too in the corner.

Ryder was just protecting the puck. It was a routine play until Hartnell hit him from behind.

I understand that...but how is a player suppose to stop when the guy he is going to hit turns his back (even if he is protecting the puck) at the end?

Btw...I don't understand how you can listen to Jack Edwards.

Hossa taken off on a stretcher. Elbow to the head.

Also, why isn't Thomas playing tonight?

I agree that it was a borderline call made more on reputation but it was still a hit from behind. It didn't help that Ryder was bent over and the hit happened right at the bench boards.

You're right that Edwards is a homer but I love him for it. He gets so excited sometimes that Brickley has to talk him down sometimes.

Dr. Sak · 03-03-2009, 08:12 PM

I think this would be a good playoff series...all 3 games thus far have been close.

bbor · 03-03-2009, 08:29 PM

Kaberle does'nt show up on the Leaf bench for the start of the 3rd....perhaps dealt between periods?

Dr. Sak · 03-03-2009, 08:56 PM

That Hossa spill was nasty. I hope he is ok.

Chief Rum · 03-03-2009, 09:07 PM

Niedermayer being off the market following a meeting with Murray on Monday is pretty interesting, actually.

It suggests he is likely to play again next year (and I would guess consider signing an extension with the Ducks).

So far all the tests have been negative, which is good.

Chief Rum · 03-03-2009, 09:47 PM

Haven't seen the Hossa thing yet. Hope he's okay.

Chief Rum · 03-03-2009, 09:49 PM

BTW, just a thrilling third period between the Hawks and Ducks. Back and forth, lots of great chances on both sides, the refs have swallowed their whistles, but neither side is playing dirty and hitting tons. Just speed hockey up and down. Just got to the end of the third, 2-2, and going to OT.

Chief Rum · 03-03-2009, 09:54 PM

Great score by Havlat in overtime. Got a breakaway. Outraced the Ducks to the other end, switched to his left just short of the crease and Jiggy crowding him and popped it into the right corner. Great shot.

Hawks are a good team, so I don't feel too bad about just taking a point out of here. Would have been nice to get two, though.

DeToxRox · 03-03-2009, 09:58 PM

Aaron Downey and Cam Janssen had a tremendous tilt.

MizzouRah · 03-04-2009, 12:49 AM

yes they did.. and then we got our asses handed to us...

Makes sense. Is Leclaire really the answer to Ottawa's goaltending problems? I do not follow Columbus but did Leclaire lose his starting job to Mason or through his own doing with his play last season?

Combination of being injured and then Mason coming up from 3 games in Syracuse to play excellent and steal the starting job away from Pascal.

Leclaire is a good 'tender, WHEN HEALTHY. That's obviously why the 2nd was thrown in from the Jacket side.

I think Vermette is a Hitch player and will fit in nicely with this group. While he's not a true playmaking center, I think he might fit well between Nash and Huselius (who is more of a playmaker).

Also, this deal keeps Vermette away from CHI or NSH, two rivals rumored to be wanting to acquire him, and it saves the Jackets some salary and gives them a chance to make another deal today.

Galaxy · 03-04-2009, 10:46 AM

The Calgary Flames welcomed a familiar face back to the fold on Tuesday, acquiring defenceman Jordan Leopold from the Colorado Avalanche for a prospect and a draft pick.

johnnyshaka · 03-04-2009, 11:16 AM

Tellqvist to Buffalo for a 4th.

That's about 100k per game for 2 years?

Galaxy · 03-04-2009, 12:15 PM

Biggest trade so far:

The Calgary Flames have made the biggest splash prior to the trade deadline so far, acquiring centre Olli Jokinen from the Phoenix Coyotes for centre Matthew Lombardi, forward Brandon Prust and a first-round pick.

The move is likely insurance for the Leafs as they have shut down starting goaltender Vesa Toskala for the remainder of the season. Toskala will undergo surgery on his ailing groin and will need at least four months of rehabillitation.

samifan24 · 03-04-2009, 12:36 PM

Boston gets Recchi and a Tampa's 2nd round pick in 2010 for D Matt Lashoff and F Martins Karsums. (easier to read this way)
