Enroth can work around any size problem he has easily - Just don't drop into the butterfly the second someone pulls their stick back. His problem is not his size, his problem is he goes down too early and too often. And like I said - He can work on that.

Looks like someone playing NHL 14 online, always going for that far side glove corner :P

Took me 20 minutes before I could tell the teams apart. Similar colors, sure, but identical color schemes and patterns, just flipped? Come on.

That's what I think. Most likely, they'll alternate for the first 4 games unless either (or both) play themselves off the team, then go with the hotter of the two. Team USA may still have flashbacks of Mike Richter, so I doubt they'll just pick a goalie and go with him.

Would make sense. Both nhl.com, and wikipedia has Hasek listed at 6' 1" http://www.nhl.com/ice/player.htm?id=8447687#&navid=nhl-search http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominik_Ha%C5%A1ek Other sites list him at either 6' 1" or 6' 0".

I love how it sensors the letters J-A-P for Japan.

I like his pest game, but other than that, IMHO he's the prototypical Sabres forward - Hands of stone in the worst way, and I don't see why he would bring anything special? But then again, Gaustad was even worse, so what do I know?

I'm guessing he's pretty much packed and heading back to Sweden if nobody claims him. The whole reason he wanted out of Edmonton was that he couldn't crack the big club, and didn't want to spend more time in the AHL.

I doubt KHL teams are lining up for Omark. Grigs perhaps, he is after all Russian, but Omark? A Swede who has shown nothing outside his native Sweden? Doubt you'll find many takers.

Ouch......

If a team goes out and sign a free agent winger to one of the biggest contracts on the team, with the intention of making him a center on a team void of centers, without making damn sure that player is able to play center at least reasonably well, they all deserve to be fired. Oh wait - They were! :w00t: No seriously - Darcy was an assclown, and although I love to hate on him, I don't think he was this big an assclown. I feel pretty convinced Leino and his agent sold his center abilities a little too well in that deal. Circumstancial and guesswork? Sure, but not at all unreasonable to think that's how it went down. I do however think Darcy was a big enough assclown to keep his prestige signings around until their contracts expired, regardless how much they sucked. Hell, he even resigned a few of them when that happened, so to think Leino would be gone just because he oversold himself? That isn't how Darcy did things.

And the fact that he wears #23 pisses me off to no end too!

You know what pisses me off the most about Leino? It's not that his making WAY too much money, and brings absolutely nothing. It's that he claimed he could play center, then two weeks into the season starts bitching about it, making remarks about "how he's much more comfortable on the wing" etc. etc. Yes, Darcy made a huge mistake bringing in him in, and basically everyone could see in advance that Leino was NOT a center, but nevertheless he should've kept his yap shut about being able to play that position cause he sure as ###### can't.

Not that I can blame him....

Is the season over yet.... ? :(

Well, one could argue that's exactly how it sounds when Cpt. Ron tries to rally his guys on the bench?

Thank god that picture hasn't got sound....

I'm sure they can get better and cheaper players locally.

Oh crap, here comes the W.

If Miller resigns here, they need to make Leino captain if they're to ever have a legitimate shot at McDavid.

True, but they usually play pretty hard nonetheless, with a fair amount of hitting.

You're not really missing that much.

He's out there......

*That's* a hold now?

Tank Commander making himself useful, I suppose...
