I know Jen, I'm not looking forward to the game.

Then it's back to Philadelphia for a rematch on Saturday. Put the Flyers down for a pair of comfortable wins.

Jen, what do you think of them waiving Leighton? Do you think it could turn around and bite them in the butt come playoff time if he ends up being claimed by another team?

I can understand why they made the move as he was the weakest preformer of the three goaltenders this season

Sadly the Flyers haven't had a main solid goaltender since Ron Hexstall

To be fair, he only played in the one game(due to offseason surgery). The reason I think they may end up regretting this is that he has shown that he is good under the pressures of the playoffs. Boucher hasn't proven himself and the other goalie has never been in the playoffs(as far as I know).

That's 1-9-0 in the last ten.

Jen, that's a successful part one for the Flyers, I just hope it's a fairly close game on Saturday.

I thought I was going to get a repeat of the gold medal game with the Leafs last night! They had a 5-2 lead and then totally fell asleep! Thankfully they were able to pull off the victory and win 6-5 in the shootout.

Here are some other scores:

1. Philadelphia beat New Jersey 4-2. And the losses keep mounting up for the hapless Devils. And they don't even have a 1st round pick this year, having lost it to Atlanta in the Kovalchuk trade. I feel your pain, dauls!

2. Minnesota beat Boston 3-1.

3. Montreal beat Pittsburgh 2-1 in the shootout even though they were outshot 32-23.

4. Edmonton beat the Islanders 2-1. Thank goodness! I was getting a little worried seeing them climb up so close to the Leafs in the standings!

5. Buffalo beat San Jose 3-0. Lindy Ruff got his 500th victory in this game.

That's what I thought, but it appears we will have our first round draft pick. As part of the Kovalchuk trade it looks like we only gave up a first round selection in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft.

In 2011 we have given up/lost the following picks:

Second Round
* The New Jersey Devils' second-round pick will go to the Nashville Predators as the result of a trade on June 19, 2010 that sent Jason Arnott to New Jersey in exchange for Matt Halischuk and this pick.

Third Round
* The New Jersey Devils' third-round pick will be forfeited as a result of a penalty sanction due to cap circumvention when signing Ilya Kovalchuk -- The penalty includes a fine of $3 million, a forfeiture of one first-round pick between 2011 and 2014 as determined by the Devils, and this pick.

The Devils clearout has already started: confirmed trade of Jamie Langenbrunner to Dallas.
I wonder who else will leave the Devils?

That has to be a typo, doesn't it(on the part where you got the info, not on your part)? I mean, they made the trade after the 2010 Draft was already gone. That is what is confusing me about this.
