Defending Michael Del Zotto…. Again
Ranger fans tend to be a very opinionated bunch and this Blue Shirts roster offers them plenty of targets to express their diverse set of opinions upon. But even on a roster that boasts expensive and underachieving forwards Brad Richards and Marian Gaborik, no player attracts a wider array of assessments than D Michael Del [...]
Northwest Division Preview
Now it’s time to look at the very interesting Northwest Division #1. Vancouver Canucks- Put aside the Roberto Luongo fiasco, this is still an elite squad. Led by the Sedin twins up front, there aren’t many better pairings in the NHL. Now there are injury problems. David Booth is out 4-6 weeks, and there is concern about Ryan Kesler, and [...]
Central Divison Preview
Now we move onto the Central Division #1. St. Louis Blues- The Blues won arguably the hardest division in the NHL last season, and I think they are poised to do it again. With a goalie tandem of Halak and Elliot, Jennings Trophy winners last season, there aren’t many pucks going into the net behind these goalies. David Backes, [...]
People’s Court: NHL Edition (If only this could really happen..)
The brief experiment involving mediation to resolve the labor impasse between the league and players’ union ended in utter and abject failure making it less likely than ever we will see an NHL season of any sort in 2012 – 2013. Every pundit in the media and seemingly every fan of the league has expressed [...]
Around The League: Flyers Offer Shea Weber HUGE Offer Sheet
The Philadelphia Flyers have signed Predators defensemen Shea Weber to a monstrous 14 year offer sheet worth around $100 million. The Nashville Predators have 7 days to match the offer put forward by Philadelphia. If they do, Weber will stay a Nashville Predators. If they don’t, Weber will be on his way to Philadelphia. Weber, [...]
Ironing Out Some CBA Issues
Will the owners ever learn? While most fans are consumed with the happenings in free agency and the trades that could, would or should happen (Nash, Ryan and Luongo), the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the league and the player’s union draws ever closer to its conclusion. If an agreement cannot be reached in time the [...]
Minnesota Wild Sign Defensemen Ryan Suter
The #MnWild agrees to terms with Suter, still working on Parise. strib.mn/Mx7VAF — Star Tribune(@StarTribune) July 4, 2012 … the domino’s are now falling. A great signing for the Minnesota Wild, who I still say will land Zach Parise. I am hearing the Wild signed Suter to a 13 year deal. Yes, you read correctly.
Rangers Stay Quiet On Day 1, Fans Confuse It With Armageddon
This year’s free agency class lacked the big names that it has in recent years. As there are only two marquee guys on the market this off-season, Zach Parise and Ryan Suter. The Rangers haven’t been linked to either one too much throughout the day which I wasn’t exactly surprised. The Rangers, however, have been linked to Rick Nash but he [...]
Panthers Sign Filip Kuba
The Panthers were a major player during last year’s free agency frenzy and they decided to get involved this year signing Filip Kuba. This means Jason Garrison will be finding a new team for next season, but this is a pretty good signing for the Panthers. Kuba had a solid year for the Senators last [...]
Two Minutes in the Penalty Box with Chelley: The Sun’ll Come Out, Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow, there’ll be a win…. The Preds are coming to MSG tomorrow. The Rangers have had a rough week. The Preds are coming in on a 5 game winning streak. The Rangers are coming in off of a dreadful loss in Montreal. Their numbers are eerily similar, with a slight [...]
