All Hockey talk all the time

Redden = has been, I don't think he'll get along with Torts. As well, CBC has confirmed that Guerin waived and they ruled out a large number of the eastern teams for Guerin. They suspect it maybe Washington who traded for him. Hopefully something gets announced shortly.

Seems like we're all watching the same game.

The last time the Wings lost 8-0 was in 1982.

Arnott with the hattrick, Weber with the Gordie Howe hattrick and +5.

Rafalski and Lidstrom somehow managed an even +/- rating. :^^^^:

This is more impressive than the win itself. Was it 7 PP goals and a shortie?

Boogard gets 5 games for his elbow on Prust. This guy has 3 assists in 47 games. Why is he even on the ice with less than 2 to go? Lemaire should have gotten a fine as well because there was obviously more than half a brain involved in that decision.

Brodeur looks so comfortable and refreshed in net for NJ...look out East.

No kidding. The past couple of years he's looked overworked and tired once the playoffs come around. This year, he should be settling into mid-season form nicely, just at the right time. NJ is my favorite for the east, particularly if they can add a shutdown defenseman to their blueline. Boston has had a great deal of success so far, but will that carry over to the playoffs? Right now, if I had to, I'm putting my money on Brodeur and Co.

Maybe we can convince Lou to take Phillips for Zajac(who is very underrated) and a pick, or even J. Smith for a 1st (wishful thinking), or solid prospect like Tedenby

^ That is wishful thinking.

NJ has been my favourite since training camp with Boston second and Philly 3rd, now that Washington doesn't really care they don't have a goalie and are playing like it - I can see them doing damage too.

Still, when the dust settles, I like the Devils to go to the Cup. Not sure if they'll win it, but they have the horses to do some damage.

Oh I know it's a pipe dream. I'm a big big fan of Zajac, and Tedenby would have been top 5 pick if he was 6'2", perhaps even higher.

You're right, the East is pretty much a 4 horse race. My order would be NJ, then Boston, then Philly, then Washington. Washington's goaltending is suspect, otherwise I might have them as high as 2nd, but certainly 3rd.

Are we going to have to wait 'til March 4th to see some significant trades or what? How about Neil and Kuba going somewhere?

P.S We shattered our posts in a month record by over 1100 with 8254 for the month of February. This topic is also about to reach 1000 posts (currently 935) as well!!

So... the Devils seem to be on fire... Brodeur is gone for a few months and the team learns to play D and score and now he's back, and they're getting better. Yowza.

I can see them making it to the final and depending on who they face possibly winning the Cup.

I suspect that the posts total would have been even higher if the GM hockey was up and running.

Brodeur earns shut-out #100 and win 547.

Ever close to the record books.

Jarome Iginla sets new record in Flames Franchise history with 834 points.

Tampa Bay is loving this on the eve of the eve of the trade deadline.

Queue the Bob Gainey calling Tampa for Recchi, unless the rumours are true, Guerin to Montreal, still betting on it being Washington.

Corus Sports reports this morning that Bob Gainey is done shopping.
