On my debut, I managed to squeak out a win. Here are my picks for the day and why: á Islanders (0-0-2) vs. Bruins (1-2-0) The champions for the East are having a slow start, but that doesn't mean that this trend will go on forever. The Bruins have too much depth in the all their lines, and Tim Thomas, despite his age, is bound to find his game. The Islanders, despite having 2009's ...

Before last night's clash of the undefeated Montreal Canadiens and the Calgary flames, one thing was certain as to the outcome; one team would still remain undefeated. That team was the Calgary Flames.á The Flames owe their win to the grit, determination and style of play of their fourth line; EricáNystromáscored twice andáSteffanáKronwallánetted his firstáNHLágoal en route to surpassing the Canadiens. Both Robyn Regehr and Dion Phaneuf played less then stellar, each being ...

The Montreal Canadiens are in talks with the free agent defenseman Marc-Andre Bergeron. Bergeron, who played last season witháthe Minnesota Wild, scored 14 goals (seven on the power play) and added 18 assists in 2008-09.á Bergeron's career started with the Edmonton Oilers in 2001. He has also played for the New York Islanders, Anaheim Ducks and, most recently, the Wild. Bergeron's reputation definitely precedes him as being a fast-skating defenseman with a ...

Okay, so that lasted all of what, 45 minutes? Absolutely devastating news came out of Montreal early today, with RDS breaking the way announcing that Andrei Markov will be out of the game for [up to] four months including rehab.á In short, the only hockey he is going to be seeing is on TV until about after the Olympic games set in Vancouver in February.á Just a side note before continuing: Markov was ...

It may be the preseason, but what the hell, it's been too long anyway. Besides, I don't know how many reviews of a game I'm going to feel this good about while I'm writing it.  So here it is, without further delay: a review of the seafood line. The seafood line is a nickname that has spread throughout Montreal radio and small-talk pretty quickly; callamari and two shrimps, clearly referencing newcomers Cammalleri, ...

Credits go to funnytoptens. Not so long ago in a desert not so far away Judge Redfield T. Baum shocked the courtroom in the Phoenix Coyotes Bankruptcy preceedings by saying he might choose neither the NHL's bid or Blackberry Billionaire Balsillie's bid for the troubled NHL Franchise. Obviously they need some help to get things done down there so here are the proposed solutions to end this mess with Phoenix, Jim ...

Can somebody tell me what the hell is wrong with the hockey world today? I don't know what's going on but today's news seem the slowest of the offseason.  What little news is being published in blogs, sports sites and even *shudder* eklunds rumor site revolves consistently either around Heatley or Phoenix. I'm sick and tired of Phoenix. If Baldberry Balsillie wishes to bid, buy or whatever $240 and change million ...
