I'm thinking they may even sneak into the playoffs - now let's see if anyone shows up to watch. And wow did they rip off Burke on the Kubina trade - I like it. Don fucking Waddell out-GMed Mr. Arrogance himself.<br /><br />Added bonus - Komo not only plays Lucic 6 times a year, but Bégin as well. Bégin cried when he left Montreal and would've given anything to stay here, so I think he may be pretty pissed that golden boy Komo would leave for the Leafs for a few thousand dollars more. It's gonna be a loooong year for Money Whore Mike.<br /><br />Captain? Wait a few months and see who takes command. And if no one does, give it to O'Byrne just for shits and giggles. Release a press statement saying O'Byrne stole the C and sewed it onto his jersey himself.<br /><br />Pleky will recover, he now has a coach who actually knows what the fuck to tell him (others too - SK74 and O'Byrne come to mind).South Shore Habs Fannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7320624876513568183.post-77903284806221321092009-07-02T21:44:39.588-04:002009-07-02T21:44:39.588-04:00Prescience.

Although I dont see it happening, expect Vinny rumors if Heatley goes to Edmonton.<br /><br />* The Thrashers will make a few really solid signings, that no one will expect.<br /><br />* The Wild will get in on Hossa and make another play for Heatley (and possibly Vinny)<br /><br />* The Islanders will make a play for a major player as well. if not Komisarek, maybe Ohlund<br /><br />* Kaberle to Boston for Kessel will be revisited.L Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17869589792782430674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7320624876513568183.post-78630951418039560822009-07-02T21:25:19.114-04:002009-07-02T21:25:19.114-04:00Gill's nickname on Pensblog was USS Hal Gill n...Gill's nickname on Pensblog was USS Hal Gill no?
