  1. Sounds like fun! Hope the Sabres make it a good night for you!
  2. My eyeball impression is that this defense is much, much better than the past.They play physical along the boards, make good passes leaving the zone, Risto is always putting someone on the ice in front of the net and they usually limit great opportunities. It can still be better, but it is not the problem with this team
  3. Yup. Find good goaltending and everyone else looks better and smiles more. Those first two goals last night I thought could have been stopped. Good goalies make those saves.
  4. I think they will play better. Teams that are totally eliminated sometimes pick it up and enjoy spoiler status
  5. Buffalo Sabres (29-28-8) at Winnipeg Jets (33-28-6)
  6. Might just be a buyers market this year
  7. The Arizona Coach: n February 6, 2006, Tocchet was served with a criminal complaint, accused of financing a nationwide sports gambling ring based in New Jersey in which several current NHL players wagered.[7] "It's not a hockey-related issue, it's a football thing. And at this time I can't comment any further," Tocchet told The Arizona Republic after the Coyotes practiced on February 7, 2006.[8] On May 8, 2006, attorneys for Tocchet and Gretzky's wife Janet Jones filed notices in New Jersey that they intended to sue the state for $50 million each for defamation. Both Tocchet and Jones claimed to have lost business opportunities in the wake of the state's investigation, which had sullied their reputations.[9] On August 3, 2006, former New Jersey state trooper James Harney pleaded guilty to conspiracy, promoting gambling, and official misconduct, and promised to help authorities with their case against Tocchet and others. Harney said that he and Tocchet were 50–50 partners in the betting ring.[10] On May 25, 2007, Tocchet pleaded guilty to conspiracy and promoting gambling. New Jersey Attorney General Anne Milgramannounced on August 17, 2007, that Tocchet had been sentenced to two years probation in exchange for his plea. He could have received up to five years in New Jersey state prison, but there is a presumption against incarceration for first-time offenders who plead guilty to such crimes. [11]
  8. Vesey draws another penalty can we afford to sign Larry, Girgs, Vesey and Simmons?
  9. Ok! Skinner! Maybe Simmons is who he needs to get the puck into the net area
  10. He has been good building the defense. He sure has his work cut out for him this offseason.
  11. If I was a GM I was make it a core principle that if I had an above average D-man in my system, he would stay in the system. They are just too valuable. Getting Joki was a steal. Chicago will regret trading him.
