Hey Marc. Yeah I saw that. I've got a couple of Ticketmaster gift cards burning a hole through my desk drawer but that game comes at the end of their 8 game road trip. I know it's broken up by Christmas a bit, but still. Do you think they have anything left for that last game or will it be another clusterfudge like the last time they were here?

Hmm, not sure. It did suck last time.
But either way, I'll go and suffer through a loss or be elated with a win.

I knew it was a conspiracy all along. Someone deep inside the Flyers Organization is trying to sabotage JVR's Season next year. I wonder what he did?
- MJL




Maybe the person innocently disclosed it and then was told he shouldn't be releasing in depth information like that.

Subban was expected to be the go to guy on D the last couple of seasons with Markov always out.

He has had troubles, but in that crazy market, he has still been able to do some great things. Montreal also really needs offense and size up front.

I would do JVR for PK. Kimmo could do wonders for the kid.

I pray to god that the flyers don't acquire Pk Subban. I would have to switch teams after 38 years.

I honestly have no idea what JVR's injury is. Whether he needs or doesn't need surgery. All I know is what were told. And that's what I go by.

I could have used your services a month or so ago. After power raking the moss and crap out, I had bare patches the size of face off dots. Lots of overseeding, but it's coming along nicely now.
- rockychocbill


Hah those companies are such a scam. Overcharge so much.

I'm almost starting my own gig with them. People ask me to do things under the table lots. Starting rate is 50$ a lawn.

There will be a few cheap back-ups come available for sure. Bryz just needs to be shown he's loved and needed.
- rockychocbill


I see that we want to make bryz the guy but what if he goes down to injury.. Just like to see some better org depth at the position.

There's a bunch of veteren guys on that list that I'd be comfortable with if Bryz was out for a month or whatever. As long as the team is playing to their capabilities, they'd get through it.

Think Biron will want too much $.

That's what the Draft is for. And those 4th round picks.

Neither do I. But when I saw that term being floated I certainly took notice. It's just not something you hear mentioned in everyday injury reporting.

Yes, that's one of the hallmarks of your posts as VanSciver on Hfboards...that and the blind love for Matt Carle, the constant fragments posted as sentences and of course the arrogant, often insulting tone of many of your responses.

Biron is 34. He played the last two Seasons at 950K and 800K. Why would he want more then that to play here?

I'll look you up in 3 years when both my boys have moved out. Right now I get the lawn edged and mowed for 10 bucks.

I have a Korean crew do the work. $260 for the power raking, rolling and also topping a dozen cedars in the front. I thought it was fair.

Halak/Elliot and look how that turned out. You're riding your No. 1 guy all the way. I only want a guy who can spell off Bryz for 20 games.
