Apart from the 256 that found their way to the back of the net last year

I am really curious to see how this season starts... if they are 10 games in and again giving up 35+ a game ... something has to change I am sure

so far from RC interviews it sounds like more of the same stuff.. play harder, compete..and randy will be grumpier.

Poor guy. My wifes aunt has MS - bound to a wheelchair now. Her frustration levels peak to a point where she rages because she can't do the most simple things, and she takes it out on the ones who will allow her to - her family. She has to rely on everyone else to get through a day, and her pride and independence are gone. Tough go that disease is. Would make anyone testy at times.

I hope you received some relief for your B Day Leafman.

Alcohol is a no go as you are aware, so take up Big D's offer. He'll make you a very special Birthday Cake.

quick update on what idiots are willing to spend.

The black 16GB iPhone 6 that I pre-ordered last week?

The high bid on it right now is $1275 US.

Ends in 10 minutes.

Don't know the details of the altercation, but I'm sure they've taken Harding's situation into consideration, so the suspension must have been warranted or they realize his frustrations are really starting to affect the team in a negative way.

Can't think of a better Birthday meal

I'm banned from eating ribs in public, though

The black 16GB 4.7 inch one wasn't sold out when I ordered it, at 9am... others were sold out 2 minutes after midnight.

JVR should not be traded.

When you're in a frenzy, it's hard to differentiate a finger from a rib. Especially when they're saucy.

Yup. I don't give a (frank) if they're 6% body fat or 16%, just get out there and do the job. IF they can (and guys like Kessel and Doughty undoubtedly can), then what's the point in complaining?

That's really funny. Kings win though, so no one targets him.

We'll see. I'm hoping that there has been some serious talk about carrying the puck vs dumping it, and maintaining an effective forecheck ESPECIALLY when going for a line-change. Just some smart, simple changes can make a big difference

JVR's got a really good contract but when you're talking about a 6'3 centre who scored 33 goals at 21 years of age, JVR's contract seems inconsequential. these guys, guys like RJ, they are so, so rare.

Exactly. He arrived at the 2007 combine at 20% body fat (The equivalent of Kessel being about 220lbs), and nobody here seemed to give a (frank).
