probably old news by now but Oilers on Miller's no-trade list (TSN.CA)

Who woulda guessed?

 

[Sore Loser]

Funny, I would have figured that someone playing in Buffalo would be chomping at the bit to go anywhere else. Guess I was wrong

[FANonymous]

So many weird goals to start this season...

 

[Kev22]

Whoops! Always keep your eye on the puck. You could see he wasn't looking at it from the above angle.

Watching Blues/Jets. Trouba missed a check and went face first into the boards. Taken off on stretcher. Ugly. Hope he is ok.

Sedins - although I'm not sure they are Philly kind of players.

I'm the only other Carter defender on the boards, and I'd take the Sedins. Sorry.

That's the worst rumor Eklund's ever put out. Which is saying a lot.

i don't disagree...Eklund is usually spot on with Flyer rumors...just many others he's not...but yeah...the Sedins are pretty damned good...

Worse than Ovechkin to Nashville?

Mase out-statting Bob.

By the end of the year I expect (hope?) this will be reversed.

Love it!!!! Especially against Detroit..

 

[fox2usp]

CBJ vs. Vancouver from last night blacked out on NHL Network replay today? Seriously?

 

[Matthew]

Worse than Ovechkin to Nashville?

Will forever stick out in my mind.

As per @KKurzCSN, the Sharks have acquired tough guy Mike Brown from Edmonton for a 4th round pick.

In my garage, I have some jugs of used motor oil mixed with coolant (the result of a head gasket issue). In a world where Mike Brown is worth a 4th, I'm pretty sure I could fetch a 2nd for that oil.

Also, found this:

Look at this clown, talking about contract limits and the current number being carried...we all know that's the realm of Internet-based crackpots.

You're still ignoring the point: if all you have to do to make room is trade away Mike Brown for a fourth-rounder, its not hard to make room. You've been arguing that the contract limit is a constraint, when it is in fact just an added step to make room so that one can make an acquisition.

"Pimp enough"? I'd be afraid to try to pull that off even if I was heavily armed!

i love the abnormal suits...i dont' have the charisma to pull them off...

He looks every bit as ridiculous as you or anyone else would.

 

[blahblah]

There is a sign under that saying "Pulling this off!" - unlike Ted Mosby and his red cowboy boots.

He is rocking that outfit. It works because you know he would kill you if you said anything.
