Incredible performance by the Flyers and Habs tonight. Really great battle in what was NOT anything like a five game series. Very classy Habs fans at the end...these are two young teams who will battle for years to come.
**************RUMOUR CENTRAL **************
SAKIC MAY HAVE OPTIONS
I have not yet put Sakic on Forsberg up since word around the league is that both are undecided on whether they are retiring yet. I will say this about Sakic. I am hearing that the Calgary Flames, Ottawa Senators, Washington Capitals, and Edmonton Oilers are each considering putting a MAJOR offer towards Sakic. To this point there is ABSOLUTELY no indication that Sakic will even consider these offers, in fact all indications are that it is Colorado or retirement. It is just notable and interesting that Joe may have some options.

First a quick explanation of an addition of
(+I) made to the e-system...
THE E-SYSTEM EXPLAINED IN A NUTSHELL (NOW WITH +I)
A higher E-Rating does not ALWAYS translate into a stronger chance that something will happen. The E-System isn't designed to rank rumours, but to inform you of the proximity and strength of a source in relation to the player.
(e1)- 1 reliable source not connected to the team or player
(e2)- 2 or more e1's
(e3)- 1 reliable source with a connection the team or player
(e4)- 2 or more e3's or 1 e3s and more than 2 e1's
(e5)- NOT A RUMOUR, BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SOMEONE CONNECTED A DEAL IS DONE.
+I- This can be attached to ANY (e) rating and signifies that I am told the deal is IMMINENTex: Mats Sundin: TOR (e4+I)
There have been scenarios where a rumour has been an e4 and the deal has not gotten done, and there have been scenarios where a rumour has been an e1 and it has gotten done. Essentially, a good source not connected directly to the deal could still have great info since this whole system references rumours pertaining to ongoing discussions only. A rumour is a rumour only and should not be considered as a fact. REMEMBER OUR #1 RULE: It's all good. It's all fun. It's all Hockey.
