how about Youtube? I used to just cut and paste a Youtube link and it would pop up as a video, now just the link appears. Thanks Rich!

Yeah I saw him on the bench. Still remember when he asked the City of Winnipeg to guarantee his contract as he didn't want to sign long-term in Winnipeg with the finances being so precarious. Oh the good old days...

You can't be a goal suck anymore in the NHL as it exists today. You have to play both ways or you are toast.

that was a hell of a pass...reminded me of the old Housley to Selanne days...

If somehow Enstrom and Burmistrov are gone and Hamonic is on our D then at the end of the day I'll be happy. Throw in some picks if that's what it takes.

he seems to be getting more confidence every game, and trying new stuff. I remember with Selanne, we had to wait for his military service to end before he could play in the NHL so he was what, 21 or 22 when he arrived here? Imagine how much Ehlers is going to progress in that time. He reminds me of Pavel Bure with the speed and sneakiness he has. He just needs to get a bit bigger and gain more experience. The upside is big on this one.

Trade Enstrom. Done.

I really feel for the CFL import players, basically getting paid in Canadian pesos.

I can't believe the Kings did that kind of contract for Brown. He's a good leader, I guess, but not much of a point producer. Last season his wife was on "Hockey Wives" and she definitely doesn't get the reality that is most players' lives in the NHL. Brown has definitely lead a charmed NHL life compared to players with similar talent to him.

All I heard when he was with the Canucks was what a drama queen he is, sounds like a guy with a lot of talent and also a lot of off-ice problems. I expect him to disappear and then I'll flip on TSN next Christmas and see that he's playing in the Spengler Cup for HC Davos. That's the only reason I watch the Spengler Cup, to play "Where are they now". Derek Roy was the big surprise this year, I thought he was still somewhere in the NHL.

The Jets this year have replaced clean hard hitting with chippy stick work and cheap shots, and thus are taking way more stupid and costly penalties. I don't know what is going on with Tyler Myers. In Phoenix he took a terrible penalty. He just skated up to a guy and punched him in the head. And bang, OEL scores on the ensuing PP. Just dumb dumb dumb.

Helle would be called for embellishment.

Is this actually verified or just your opinion? I could see why they would say no, but just curious if it is verified. How about we throw in Chase DeLeo too?

If Ladd is injured, he needs to take a few weeks off and let it heal. Better that the spot be filled by someone who is 100% healthy than Ladd at 60% (and that's being generous).

a lot of players have sports psychologists. I still remember walking by the visitor's dressing rooms here in Kelowna between periods and Scotty Upshall was out in the hallway getting a pep talk from his own personal sports psychologist. This is while he's playing in the WHL.

Ray Finkel is alive and well in Minnesota

If you hate the Russians, watch this video from 1976, where the Flyers beat the hell out of the Russians. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ddPhG6EAOo&feature=youtu.be They're going home!!!

Being a seasoned veteran of fool's errands, I normally would be cool with being nominated but Tate is a loon and kind of scares me.

I remember Hutch was on fire this time last year, and he had that big 4-0 shut-out against Columbus right before the All-Star break that had everyone thinking he was the next one. He has been on the down-slope ever since that game. For some reason this year he's having a hard time stopping beach balls. I don't get it. I just hope Helle doesn't fall into that same post All-Star break sink-hole. I'd like to see two solid goaltenders for once, get back to "Pokey and the Bandit" type days.

Williams is hurt, some guy whose name sounds like Crousaint is the starter for Pitt at running back this week. At least that's what DraftKings just told me.

JFG for top Canadian 2016! They also need to draft another 3 Mennonites for the OL and then they can go 5 MNI on the O-line.

I don't get it either. You have QB's like Reilly and Willy who are back-ups and are dying to jump ship to get a starter gig, and then you have Tate, who is comfortable just living in BLM's shadow. Makes no sense. The only thing I can think of is that Hufnagel took Tate down to Tijuana in last year's off-season and got some incriminating photos taken.

the whole Arizona team should be fined $2,000 each as they were diving all over the ice in the game I was at. Ladd stupidly gave a little shove to OEL and he went down like he had been shot. It happened right in front of me. Ladd was brain-dead to do it but OEL should have been called for embellishment, just as Ehlers got nailed for it.
