What a trade that was for the Pens. I still cant believe Dallas moved him.

For sure, although he moved on to play with far superior talent, which probly bumped him up some.

I wasn't about to bring that up, kudos.

When you jump unsuspecting players, it's not really a 'fight'.

Also, fighting has nothing to do with wearing the C. It's simply seen as an avenue of leadership,but still, there are many captains who barely ever fight - and for good reason, it's pretty much counter-productive.

He was still a 30goal guy in Dallas with Benn as his C. I like Neal with Malkin so much more than with Cros. He and Malkin just seem to work together.

LOL. Your still a work in progress. But good move. It may just force the Av's hand. And he stays.

Av's get some more top picks. They better tank it and draft really well this year.

I do find it interesting though that Prust wanted to go with Dion, when there were several appropriate suitors there

On the Prust - Phaneuf thing, Cherrry hit the head, Dion runs around and looks for trouble, so he has to answer the bell.

I think if Dion hadn't of pulled the slash after the hit... Prusty isn't (usually) "that" kind of guy.
