IMO, nothing beats 'shoe-in' -- freaking hilarious every time.

Going to have to use the farm system. Straka, Cousins, McGinn, Akeson. We have a little bit of talent down there. These guys could make the NHL on a lot of other teams that do not have the forward corps that the flyers do. The flyers just do not like to bring up scoring forwards and play them on the fourth line of the team.

If there's a top-6 winger or Lecavalier injured and they don't want to break up Read and Coots, they can call up Akeson. If there's a bottom-6 injury, they have McGinn, Holmstrom, and even Newbury if needed.

For all intensive purposes, the misspellings will keep happening irregardless of what we try, as people won't make a complete 360 degree change in their spelling all of the sudden.

I hope you know that irregardless is not even a word lol. You just say regardless.

Oh man just look at that list of past-their-prime players scooped up @ the TDL!

The Mason deal shines supreme.

I felt that post was pretty golden. I have been very let down by your replies. I see it's wrist cutting time again...I always forget, it's acrost the wrists or longwise with the wrists?

Well it's also said that Scooby Doo can doo doo, but Jimmy Carter is smarter. So what's the point?

People in the Pens' blog talking about trading Brandon Sutter, Brian Dumoulin and a 1st round pick for him.


- Tomahawk


Yea. It's gotta be Pouliot for that deal to have a chance of happening. They need to get someone with some upside in that deal. Dumoulin is a solid prospect, but not really a guy with huge upside.

I think we've been told to ignore grammatical errors for so long, it's difficult to turn that switch back on. Whenever I see one, I just move write passed it!
