So the Kubina trade goes through even though the Flyers now have 1 over the 50 contract max.

Why even bother having rules?

Dude, making fun of dead children is definitely offside.

What a low life piece of 5hit

Well despite another ass whipping tonight, somehow, miraculously, the Leafs are hanging onto that 8th spot by a thin thread.

The superior teams are above the rules...

I love watching Boston - they can score and play the physical game to a tee. Thornton is a beast, what more can you ask from the guy. When he blindsided Gill the other night in the Habs game, was just awesome.

Dreger just said he believes there is an ECHL player involved in deal. The only ECHL player with an NHL contract is Tyler Hostetter who currently is playing with the Phantoms in the AHL.

I'll give Holmgren credit. He's pretty good. I hear there is a couple of guys from a Philly bantam team involved in the Nash proposal

I will ask then, if superior teams are above the rules, then how can Philly have one over the max limit?
