Fuck Price.

The Price Is Wrong!!!

No but seriously, until he gets out of Montreal, he is screwed.

Cammalleri only got 1 game. Colin Campbell is a joke.

4 days away from Opening Night - so I guess now is about as good of a time as any to throw my predictions out there.

Not that anyone actually cares or anything.

The Islanders are going to be absolutley awful this year.

With Streit out, I wouldnt doubt it one bit.

Vital cog that kept a clunker, clunking.

hey what do you Canadian people think the Avalanche will do this year?

I'm too biased to tell.

May take a small step back, as I think Phoenix will do. They'll be fighting for a playoff spot. Anderson is going to have to be great as the Avs defence doesn't excite me.

They really need to cut down on their shots against. The hockey fight fan in me hopes David Koci makes a speedy recovery.

Vancouver Canucks Trade Shane O'Brien To Nashville Predators

Lol poor Ryan Parent

How do teams get different numbers of preseason games? Most have 6, but Toronto had 9 while Islanders, Boston, and Carolina only got 5.

Honestly, I think Avs will do even better this year, virtually nothing has changed.

Duchene should put up a monster season, kid is amazing and if Shattenkirk and Elliot end up on the blueline and do as well as I think they will look out.

It all depends on Anderson, who I think is more then capable.

You take into account travel distances and the such, Toronto played against mostly teams that were located near (Detroit, Ottawa)

Also it takes into account their season start and the such, for example Vancouver has 9 days off before their first game.

All balances out in the ned.

Shattenkirk and Elliot were both sent down.

Their defence looks like this:
Liles-Quincey
Hannan-Foote
Cumiskey-Wilson
Holos

Wilson sucked during the pre-season, Foote is old as dirt, and Liles is awful in his own zone. They give up far too many shots and their special teams isn't very good. I'm prediciting the Avs to finish 9th-10th, but not surprised if they sneak in.

Yeah I know they were sent down, they may be brought up for the exact reasons you typed in the message I am quoting.

Wilson is meh, Foote should retire and Liles is horrible like you said.

Get some new blood in the backend.

I'm not crazy about Elliot. The Avs have enough of this type. Cameron Gaunce intrigues me a lot and I'm a Shattenkirk fan as well.

They do have an excellent team for being so young.

Christ, get rid of Liles and Foote (hell I almost forgot he played for the Av's)

Liles's contract is a bitch, as is Hannan's

Hey Gert, care to make an avatar wager on Montreal/Toronto?

Cant wait till tomorrow night. Dads going to see the Avs/Hawks game tomorrow, he's hoping the Cup is there since the Avs have a reunion thing for the 95-96 cup win, but I doubt it.

Also, "Toughest Man in the NHL" Ian Laperriere is told to retire by doctors http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=539761

The cup will be in Chicago until Saturday night - and then it goes back to Toronto.

For the first time in 43 years.

I'll take that bet

Our choce of avatar for the other person for base of one month + goal differental?

Chicago is back. Still have there core. Toews is amazing. Lets do it!

Love this commercial. Love all of them.

Wahey, hockey is back. :) Also a match on later tonight straight after an MLS game...looks like an all nighter for me!

Deal

Gping to the pub with Satchmo to watch the openers, goddamn excited.

The only way Leafs fans see the Cup - is when it's on display at the HOF
