That's NE Pennsyvlania, where I'll be is more central. Knowing my luck, it will just barely be out of the broadcasting zone.

Unfortunately it wont be up to Nashville. I'm pretty confident both guys want a change in scenery.

I think the statement that they want to see Nashville is a real competitor is a sincere sentiment. I think Nashville has a solid shot at playoffs success this year, and I think if they do they've got their defensemen back.

I cant believe how bad our injury bug has been all year... Karma says we are due to have a completely healthy playoffs, minus Pronger...

This sounds like a kind of crappy but still funny 80s movie, where your neighbor is the last house to get it before the cutoff. I can see it now, the scene where you've climbed up a tree to sit on a branch to watch through his window. Creeeeeaak, uh oh.

I can only pray that Weber would like to leave Nashville.

Actually it kind of is up to Nashville, as Weber is RFA. If he refuses to sign, they can trade his Arse anywhere they want... Weber is not going to be a UFA after next season. No matter what.

Not to mention that both do want to stay, and just wanted to see a comitment to spend money to win from the team, which they have done this season...

Then he falls into the street and gets hit by a car. Wakes up to someone, who is really his mother, calling him Calvin Klein...

Wait, that movie was already written...

To me it just seems they've been trying to do that since thy entered the league. Theyve made strides but I have imagine patience is wearing thin.

Perhaps, but winning always helps. If that team sees the third round (or more, of course), the task of retaining those two becomes much easier.

First, what player is you to say, hey, I don't want to be here? Of course they are saying the right things now so try don't burn their bridges. If both really wanted to be there, I think they would have signed. Clearly Suter wants to test the market.

Even if they trade weber, he could easily still become a UFA if he doesnt resign with that team.

Absolutely true, just don't see them going that deep.

Hopefully nothing serious with Kubina, he's been a force.

Post game WIP caller of the night (paraphrased)

Read in a poopty half drunk Philadelphia accent:

"Do you think its no coincidence that since Timo and Mezsaros have been out the defense has really stepped up its game? Maybe its time to send them down to the Phantoms like the Rangers did with Redden?"

IL-YA, IL-YA... it sounds more like a taunt then a cheer, and much easier for a foreign fan base to mock.

I know the Fan's are really good at the Boo, which makes Boooosch much easier... But Breeez would be awesome...

- RooNosHockey


When it's a fast-paced two-syllable, it never sounds like taunting. It's the slow, drawn out one that's the taunt.

Maybe they can get rid of Giroux too while they're at it. They could also move Hartsey at the draft since his value will never be higher after this career year.

Hartsey for Crosby. Crosby will be a free agent after next year. Pittsburgh is probably dying to trade him.

That contingent of people amaze me sometimes.

Yeah, taking your best defenseman and last year's Barry Ashbee Trophy winner out of the lineup and replacing them with your #7 and a rookie makes the club better. Has nothing at all to do with Bryzgalov playing his best hockey of the season, the forwards focusing on helping out more and the remaining defensemen elevating their own play as well. Just addition by subtraction
