I made my 2nd visit to the east coas these holidays, tbucks county (richboro) to be exact to visit my GF's family and the day before i was supposed to fly back to Vegas it was 14 degrees... Saw snow for the 3rd time in my life, all i could think of is how people could live in a place like this? 14 degrees? are you kidding me...

and then i thought if it's cold here in PA can you just imagine America's Hat?

use a butter knife on your throat, because I don't believe it, Yandle is a top tier defenseman, JVR wasn't a top tier forward at the time.
I believe JVR could have maybe brought in one of their younger guys, but ot an established top tier guy

At the time Bill said Phoenix wanted a similar return for Yandle as Nashville wanted pre-OS for Weber.

it got pretty hot this summer... but if given the choice i rather be hot than cold, having to wear 3-4 layers of clothing ain't my thing nor is not being able to feel some of my body parts, neither is having to shovel my drive way or driving in icy roads

in case anyone cares:

(from the kings' blob)
the Kings traded Daniel Carcillo to the New York Rangers for a conditional 7th round pick in next year's draft to clear a roster spot for Jonathan Quick. Carcillo, acquired by the Kings from Chicago for a conditional sixth round pick this offseason, played in 26 games for the team and had a goal and an assist.

In here Tim says that the Flyers could have had Yandle for the same price as JvR...if that's true...Jesus (frank)ing Christ.

That is SO rare here, though. First time in 15 years it was cold enough for my shearling hat. And with the right layers, not that cold. But I couldn't handle what goes on in Canada. My asthma would kick in.

I played on a mens league team in Manhattan about 10 years ago and one of my linemates was a guy from Edmonton. He told me stories that absolutely blew my mind.

Frozen car tires and the like.

This week is gonna suck worse. At least with the snow, people are a bit more understanding...but if it's just brutal cold, there's less excuse for being late or other issues.
