what number does brad richards wear?
- 2Real

19 in Tampa Bay, 91 in Big D

I gotta say, that is the weirdest way to agree with a post
- Richards18

As long as he agrees.

I was listening to the NHL Prospects Show on XM. Talking about one particular defenseman that might be taken around #8, the three guys talking each had wildly different opinions about his strengths and weaknesses.

Meh, so much of hockey scouting seems dictated by personal bias and point of view.

Does every team now have a coach in place besides the Devils?

Lou Lamoriello is always waiting in the wings, to name himself.

i think it's the briefest way. i could have said, "IAWTP". but i like "this".

They certainly have their priorities straight.
- Richards18

You would think they would be doing everything in their power to get Stamkos under-contract before dealing with anyone else.

No one watched George and Weezy?
These youngsters today, sheesh.

BTW, your long post from earlier this am was great.
You are Bill Jr!

If Bill was Yoda, I am Jar Jar or Greedo at best

you sell yourself short, sir.

Well, hopefully their mistakes become our fortune.

Thats why I really think they wont be able to re-sign Stamkos. Stamkos in the Flyers crest would be a dream come true.

A possible roster that could work if the Flyers sign Brad Richards

I haven't been this stoked for a draft since JVR's @ #2.

It really is. The one issue that was the most divided was his skating, of course. One guy felt he was a little choppy, the other guy didn't like how he transitioned his body positioning in close quarters. Really different views, though

He'd also be happy to hear about new young guys coming to town.

Burke will get him before us in my opinion.

As i said on a TSN.ca vídeo hit...strong belief Wpg will name its team the Manitoba Jets. We'll find out tonight.

They are trying to stay away from the Winnipeg Jets arent they?

I didn't even realize the draft was tomorrow until the bomb exploded yesterday. I knew it was soon but knew we had no picks so wasn't too concerned. Now I'm nearly in mid-season form with excitement. It's amazing how a rainy day in June can do that.

Too bad he turned out to be a bust

The Winnipeg Jets moved to Phoenix and, thanks to Bettman, are still there.

Schenn sounded like he won a date with Jessica Alba with a guaranteed rogering session

never saw the show and i'm at work so no sound
