Some revisionist history for Carolina:

If NJ had accepted the original offer sheet for Shanahan of Brindy and Joseph plus picks

We may not ever had Brindy
Shane Willis wouldnt have had his career ended by Stevens

As a Canes fan who grew up a Flyers fan before the Whale moved....

Brindy in a Devils jersey is a special evil timeline that I'm glad we avoided

Another interesting thing is that Holmgren called Brindy into his office and asked what he thought of Keith Primeau. Brindy had played with him in international play and said he was great. They insinuated they were considering trading Lindros and Rod told Holmgren "you can't trade that guy (Lindros)". He asked Holmgren if he (Rod) was being traded and Holmgren assured him that Clarke wouldn't trade Brindy. Rod got the news from Paul Maurice.

He also said Lindros was probably the best player he's ever seen. Could just do it all.

EDIT: one other funny comment. Someone asked Brindy if Clarke as a GM was always in their face and Brindy said no. If he saw something, he'd tell you but he wasn't constantly getting on them or inserting himself. He did say one day he (Clarke) showed up at practice in full gear and said he was going to teach them how to be good at face-offs. ha ha.

Wasn’t really sure where to put this but I suppose here is as good a place as any.

Didn’t realize David Ayres had landed a professional coaching job for a team in the SPHL. Unfortunately, that team is no longer around. They simply didn’t show up for a game and then everyone found out afterwards they had folded.

didn't realize he was one of the coaches. that team had more coaches (10) than wins (9) which is something.

Toronto called their friends and asked them to offer Ayers a job so they wouldn't run into another Zamboni driver situation.

If you treat us all to a nice tailgate I'm sure we can find a way to keep quiet :).

I'm not crying, it's how my eyes are all the time with the cats in the house.

A true man’s man. Letting his tears flow.

On a serious note. Have you ever tried this product called Allerpet? It’s on Amazon. It’s a liquid you rub on to the cats every 10 days or so. If you haven’t, it’s a game changer for anyone allergic to cats. My friend watches my cat pretty often, but very allergic to cats. When I apply Allerpet, he gets hardly any symptoms from being around and petting my cat.
