Meanwhile, how about this for a tradeoff.

The Canucks lose a third-tier defenseman.
The Bruins lose their number-two scorer in the playoffs, who was responsible for two winning goals in overtime and two winning Game 7 goals.

I'd say the Canucks made a damn good trade.

I just hope that Horton can begin playing for the pre-season next year. Concussions can be a career-ender, and I don't want to see anyone's career ended because of one.

With regards to the article posted above, I like fighting in hockey for the most part. If someone takes liberties with one of your players, you can give them a reason to stop doing it. I don't like the "scripted" fights, the ones where it is obvious that they are going to fight before there is even a reason to fight(5 seconds into the freaking game for instance!). I love watching hockey, and not just for the fighting.
I love games like the ones that Boston and Vancouver played in the first two games(minus the stupid penalties, both bogus and deserved) rather than the blowout game 3(even if it had been Vancouver winning 8-1). There is no suspense in blowout games, and the one-goal games are heart-pounding through and through.

Did hell just freeze over?
I ask this because the Flyers just got the rights for Ilya Bryzgalov
Can it be that the Flyers are serious about getting a decent goalie?

I think they knew it was the only way to steal you back from the penguins.

Crosby? Seriously? What a shock!

Jen, please send me a picture with your new jersey. I need to see JerseyGirl Jen's Jersey.

Speaking of goalies (I write this as Luongo comes back, shockingly, for the 3rd period in the Bruins-Canucks game), someone needs to get this kid Robin Lehner from the Binghamton Senators. They just won the Calder Cup and he was the MVP of the post-season.

Actualy his jersey was the only one they had for the Penguins,

Oh i planned to buy either 87 or 66 but they had no 66 jerseys

Now if they can only sign him and figure out a way to stay under the cap. It also depends on how much he is asking for. Some reports are saying anywhere from 6 to 8 million dollars per year which I don't think Philly will give him. They might go 6 but I doubt any higher.
