Leafs suck so no one cares what you would do. - mooymoney
I sense you are suffering from Stanley Cup over cockiness. I'kk give the Kings their just due. They were the best team in the playoffs last season. Everything fell perfectly into place for them. Even Carter, Richards & Penner had their heads on straight which is a miracle in itself. But I wouldn't get too over cocky about a repeat. Carter, Richards & Penner are meatheads so the odds of all 3 of them playing at the high level like last season I wouldn't bet on it.
I really didn't mean to offend Edmonton and turn this into an anti-'Murica rally... because I really do love Canada, even though you guys are a bunch of elitist, snob richards.
Let's please get back to bashing the Isles for cheating their way through the season

If you guys keep playin great & make the playoffs, Thomas has the ability to REALLY come up big, he can be scary good. - GCHonda
You realise that Thomas isn't going to play this year right? The Isles only traded for the cap hit so the could be cap compliant and not have to pay for it. I think they shouldn't get revenue sharing because of this.

Did I say anything about the Kings? No. Did I say anything about the Stanley Cup? No. I said the Leafs suck and no one cares what you "said" you would do. No fire storm etc etc. You would just sit there and complain to your mom as she made Mac and Cheese for you.

The Boston Bruins only get a draft pick from the Islanders for Tim Thomas if he reports to them or any other team if NYI trade his rights.
I guess the B's got nothing... - Fruitcakenipple
They got $5+ mil in cap space. That could end up being useful.

If only there was some system.. or a webpage that had a system to tell fans about rumours.
This is the first trade --- an ACTUAL trade --- and did Ek have any insight into it prior to it happening? All we get is "Western Canada" ambiguity.
Blah Balh (Canadian Team 5/10 Toronto, 3/10 Vancouver, rest shared) blah blah talks with other team (5/10 Phiadelphia, rest shared except for 2 or 3 who never get any mention) and it is an e blah. More to come (8/10) Dominos (2/10)
I love ya Ek, but that "Western Canada" blog was ugly.
