Damien Brunner going on unconditional waivers to terminate contract. I would seriously look to sing him for rest of year and let him play with couturier. Umberger can drop to 4th line. Brunner also ok on shootouts.

Hey man, heard the new Tool album is moving along. I'm waiting patiently.

How's your son doing?

- wolfhounds


He's doing well, thanks for asking. Still has the reflux... but he's eating more solid foods every day. Talking quite a bit now. I can't get him to say 'hockey' but I sure try every time a game is on. He's much more into the car commercials than the game. He loves it when that Jeep commercial with the Michael Jackson song comes on.

I'm not waiting that patiently for this album. Even with the lawsuit, I think they are dragging their feet.

yeah i dont know what happened with him. he seemed decent enough in detroit. not a total stud, but at least a guy that could crack a forward lineup, especially on a team with depth issues.

And I think you have missed most of Coburn's career.

And you are completely,100% incorrect.

I don't understand... is this just out of desperation to try to light a spark? Hasn't he been terrible on an already not-so-good Devils team?

I'm going to go ahead and say he's better than Umberger but what do we want with an aging never-was.

I think he's going home to be honest. He's not working out in Jersey.

After seeing Axel, they would be twice the band they used to be.

What does Chris VandeVelde bring to this lineup? He doen't kill penalty's I'd rather have Rosehill up playing fourth line minutes. At least he brings a physical presence.

eastern canada could support another toronto based team and a quebec team. consider that there 5 teams between boston, hartford, nyr, nyi, and njd in that narrow of a region at one point. does the nyc metropolitan area need 3 hockey teams? no.
not sure where else across canada could support any additional nhl squads that would be any different than bad american markets now. saskatoon was floated as a potential spot a long time ago. don't think that would fly.

in the us, the teams need to move north. simple as that.

- hammarby31


Toronto could definitely support two teams, but Leafs won't allow that to happen

If his owner were willing to 'buy' that top-10 pick, you bet your ass Murray would do that trade in an instant. Even for a top-20 pick. With the way Myers has been playing, he's Luke Schenn on an albatross contract.
- Tomahawk

yeah, I can't say I've watched any Sabres hockey lately, but it certainly doesn't sound like Myers is on his way to putting it all together
