Nope. Maybe older? I've never smoked anything. Taken anything not prescribed for me. And I've been drunk probably a handful of times. Too much of a control freak to feel comfortable altered.

Yeah, that too. :-)

And, yeah, same.

Neither do the New York Giants and New York Jets.

Right. One area where the NFL is more franked up than the NHL.

I think Manning would also be claimed which would leave them without a suitable #7 unless they wanted to seat a younger player in the press box. I do agree with Bill that it would really improve how the D is slotted to their capabilities.

Hextall has some work to do with his excess forwards. If he see's opportunities to move some, he should explore Markov .

The odds are low because of what I feel has to happen to make the room. I don't want the Flyers to lessen the amount they stay under the cap for next season due to the high probability of a significant amount of bonus money being paid out.

Also for the first time, I heard Estimated Prophet by the Grateful Dead. It sounds completely different than every other Grateful Dead song I've ever heard, almost a funk sort of sound to it. I still am undecided on if that's a good or bad thing.

I can tolerate their Reckoning album.
I like the song Touch of Grey

Off to Google that one. brb

Edit: meh - has a reggae feel which I'm generally okay with - but one listen is enough for me on this one. Didn't make me a GD fan.

1. Lafontaine.
2. No idea.

- FlyerFan16


I'm in the same boat, Lafontaine was the only one that popped right in my head.

EDIT: Some reason that POS Rich Pilon keeps popping in my head, don't think he played for Buffalo though.

EDIT2: Figured out another one...goalie. Marty McFly.

EDIT3: Did Thomas Vanek sign with the Rangers? I wouldn't be surprised.

I agree which is why I feel Hextall needs to work on the excess forwards anyway. I do think he likes the luxury of keeping the forwards he has in case any of the young forwards struggle in camp. Signing Markov would be a much more necessary luxury to have in my opinion because of the option of sending Macdonald down to the minors if the young D earn their spots.

Bill,

Any chance you can give a little rundown on some of the camp invites? Do any have a legit chance of earning a contract like Myers did?

- J35Bacher


Ivan Kosorenkov has a shot. Blogged about him the other day. The other invitees are all college-bound players with no realistic shot right now.

Good tune, there are a few other songs from their late 70s period that have a funky groove to them.

By that point in the movie weed was no longer enough for her. She had become a full blown cheesing addict.
