Its a combination of Wilson, who always calls out players, and because Toronto hasn't been a playoff team since the lockout. A few years ago there were a number of players who would have loved to go to Toronto if they could. Its also not an easy market to go to with the constant media and fan scrutiny. Some players like small markets where they can just play their game and not have to answer for it.

The Hurricanes actually played St.Petersburg in exhibition. the game got REAL chippy. Yashin and Nabokov were on the St.Petersburg team

So judging from this, I dont know if the League or PA would want to revisit this idea.

That idea probably wouldn't be that good, since it would be inconsistent.
Some cup winning teams only show up for that winning season and break apart the next season.

I'd also like to see NHL Stanley Cup champions VS KHL champions.

I think it wouldn't be so much fun and games anymore...

punkwax
01-31-2011, 07:32 AM
Like I said months ago, Hodgson can play center or wing on 3rd or 4th line to get used to the speed and intensity of NHL. He's not a one dimensional player who NEEDS to be on the top 1 or 2 lines. He will be eventually, but IMO he's versatile enough today to fill any role we have for him.

Why release new jerseys at such a late point in the season?

It's for next season, apparently 11 teams are updating their jerseys, Tampa is the first to unveil their new jerseys. Panthers, Lightning, Kings, and Predators are expected to have all new home and road sets. Atlanta, Dallas, Ottawa, Toronto, Pittsburgh and the Islanders are expected to retire their current alternates and sport new ones. The Oilers will have a new road jersey.

01-31-2011, 04:22 PM
:lol i still do wonder how Hodgson would do in the nhl, since the game recently has been much more about speed and he doesn't seem to be the speediest guy. For example, his teammate in the video, Matt Duchene is a speedy guy, and is having great success with the Avs, but Hodgson looks to be more like a puck handler than a guy who can just break loose and go. With more experienced D-men in the NHL, I can picture him just getting completely demolished while he's doing his nifty moves.

my boss bought me tix to fridays game against chicago this way, i always had hard copy tix when ive gone to games. how does this work? I dont wanna goto the game and find out that my boss was the only one able to pickup the tickets........

The only way they will release the tickets under will call is:
1. Matching ID
2. Matching credit card (one you use to purchase)
3. Two hours prior to the game

This is my experience from LA Lakers and LA Kings will call window. I had 3 pair of tickets for 3 consecutive nights and I tried to pick them up all at once. They didn't let me and I had to line up every single night. :(

Ask your boss to go with you? :troll:

To add, Staples Center in LA didn't require this $25 surcharge. Buying Canucks tickets from TM/TE sucks ass :( CL is the way to go :D

:lol i still do wonder how Hodgson would do in the nhl, since the game recently has been much more about speed and he doesn't seem to be the speediest guy. For example, his teammate in the video, Matt Duchene is a speedy guy, and is having great success with the Avs, but Hodgson looks to be more like a puck handler than a guy who can just break loose and go. With more experienced D-men in the NHL, I can picture him just getting completely demolished while he's doing his nifty moves.

Henrik and Daniel sure have a tough time.

Before the injuries and setbacks maybe, but can't see Hodgon exploding like Stamkos did. Definitely seems like he'll need a couple of years like Kesler or the Sedins.

Brothers AND sisters... Erin Hamhuis' blog:
http://canucks.nhl.com/club/post.htm?id=237

What do you get when you combine the Vancouver Canucks with five sisters, 11 brothers and two brother-in-laws? A siblings road trip! In total 18 guests are traveling with the Canucks to Dallas and Phoenix this week on the Siblings Trip and Canucks.com is fortunate to have Erin Hamhuis, sister of Dan Hamhuis, as a guest blogger for the adventure.

I’ve never really blogged before, but I’ve never been on a road trip with the Vancouver Canucks either, so it only makes sense to start now.

I’m Erin Hamhuis, Dan Hamhuis’ younger sister, and I’m lucky enough to be on the road with the Canucks right now for the siblings’ trip! Dan first brought this up I think in November, he called and asked if I could get time off from the Credit Union I work at in Smithers, BC, and there was no question, I was very excited and said of course I’d come.

It's a pretty good read :)

Not an unattractive lady, either:

http://cdn.nhl.com/canucks/images/upload/2011/02/Feb111_DH2_b.jpg

Edit: is it any wonder Vancouver is becoming one of the THE teams of choice for players? Some of the best lockerrooms and training facilities anywhere in the league, cushy charter flights, and now they're regularly taking family members along (it was dads a couple years ago, moms another time), and laying all kinds of little perks on them:

Anyways, after we got to Dallas Monday afternoon, we went to practice with the team and that’s where we kind of met everybody. The team gave us all jerseys with our brother’s name on the back, which was nice, and then we went to the hotel, got settled, had a team plus siblings picture and then the team took us out for dinner to a really really nice steakhouse. We sat at the table and just goofed around and enjoyed our meal and it was really nice. It was very comfortable too and it was really nice of the Canucks to take care of us the way they did; it was pretty special.

This is one of the benefits of having a former player agent as a GM: he knows the kinds of *little things* that players like, things beyond just the paycheck that you can use to entice them.

The reasons listed above by Soundy are the reasons why Edmoton is not going to win a cup in the next 10 years, nor even contend for one

in a Salary cap era such as this, intangibles are HUGE for a teams success, people who think Edmonton is going to even be in the running for a championship in the next 10 arent seeing the big picture, let alone their "prized" picks are TINY, you dont win with a roster full of small players regardless of how good they are

Edmonton wont win for alot of the same reaons why the Toronto Raptors will never win a championship, it's all about the intangibles.

PK Subban is a great Dman, lots of upside, He needs to know his role sometimes tho.

Would have been less damage if PK didn't try to dodge over top of Ovie.

In my keeper league, I received this trade:

I trade: Gaborik + 3rd round pick

I get: Subban + 6th round pick.

Thinking about it.

the fall looked so awkward too. almost like if he kept his arm out he might have broken his arm in the fall and maybe injured his neck too

yeah, I was thinking of that too. Natural reaction is to try to break your fall with your arms or hands, but with all that gear on, probably best to just tuck in and land on a shoulder or even elbow in hockey.

In my keeper league, I received this trade:

I trade: Gaborik + 3rd round pick

I get: Subban + 6th round pick.

Thinking about it.

IMO it depends on a lot of factors.

How many players are kept each year
What stat catagories are counted
Is there a min number of D needed on the team
Are you still trying to win this year or tanking and building for the future

In the current keepers pool I'm in where we only count points I wouldn't make that trade
Gaborik is roughly a PPG player and would get picked up in the first round in any year where as PK is still un proven points wise and could probably be picked up in the middle rounds of the yearly draft, and you're expected to give up 3 rounds on top of that
But then again, in my pool the protected spots are usually reserved for elite scorers and franchise goalies. There are only a handful of D that get protected every year and these are the obvious recent norris nominees and/or winners (ie lidstrom, keith, doughty etc...)

giving up gaborik and a 3rd to get subban and a 6th?..

how many ppl/spots are in your keeper pool?

Ronin
02-02-2011, 03:05 PM
14 people in my pool.

6 keepers + 1 extra keeper that you acquire through a trade.

Currently my keepers are Gaborik, John Carlson, Taylor Hall, Matt Duchene, Paul Stastny, Henrik Lundqvist.

I also have another D prospect coming up (Oliver Ekman-Larsson) but if he plays 60 games, I have to either drop him or keep him as a keeper rather than a prospect.

I've had Gabs for years now and he's only produced two good seasons without significant injury so I'm looking to unload him but there's no question that healthy, he's an elite forward.

Young players with star potential are extremely valuable in keeper leagues. Taylor Hall, for example, cost me Iginla, Visnovsky and Varlamov (all guys I didn't really want to keep because they're old). If he turns out to be awesome, I have a star player for 10+ years.

Ronin
02-02-2011, 03:09 PM
Oh by the way, scoring in my league is balanced for D-men so that an elite defenseman is just as valuable if not more than elite forwards.

Forward +/- is not calculated but it is for D-men. Also, all D-men points are multiplied by 1.5.

Therefore, when Lidstrom scored 80 points, he's equally as valuable as Ovechkin scoring 120 and so on.

That's why I'm betting on Carlson being the future of the Caps blueline. I also think OEL is a top prospect...comparable to Lidstrom in the future.

02-02-2011, 03:19 PM
If you guys are only keeping 6 or 7 players I think there are more viable options, especially if you're already keeping a D man in Carlson. Since forwards are typically going to get you more points than a Dman I'd save your keeper spots for PPG forwards. Besides, I think there are a lot of young underrated Dman (letang, yandle, jack johnson etc...) that you can try and pick up in next years draft instead of giving up 3 rounds and one of your keepers. Is the guy that's offering you this trade even planning on keeping PK?

Ronin
02-02-2011, 03:25 PM
No one in my pool is stupid. Letang, Yandle, Johnson are all probably being kept for next year. We've been doing this for almost 10 years now. Everyone knows the formula.

Keep in mind...14 players...7 players each...that's 98 NHL players off the table.

The guy offering the trade has one of the worst teams. He would definitely keep PK.

F3
02-02-2011, 03:36 PM
Didn't see your post about Dman getting 1.5x the amount of points.
That would make me more likely to make the trade.
