Boy how the mighty have fallen. Remember when he was Montreal's "franchise" player?

So was Darcy Tucker, Brian Willsie and other losers.

I vaguely remember him being touted as the next captain a while back. If Higgins' attitude bad? I remember reading that in several places (could have been all here though).

British Cigareet?

ESPN had it flash across the bottom of the screen, but no one can confirm or deny.

From ESPN today...

Big Rangers-Ducks trade coming?
10:28AM ET ESPN INsider RUMORS

The Anaheim Ducks and New York Rangers might be talking about a big trade that would bring Christopher Higgins to Disneyland. The Hockey Insider reports that Todd Marchant could be coming to Madison Square Garden, in exchange, but there is no word on what other pieces -- if any -- will be involved.

BTW is Spez-D trying to turn GMH into HB Lite?

Biggie Smalls was big.

And Guy Big was small.

In the East, the standings continue to get tighter. Just three points separate the 8th and 13th place teams, with 8th, 9th and 10th tied on points.
