You know, I was thinking tonight that roughly 10 years ago, hockey was a huge ass part of my life, with playing/hockey cards/etc.

I remember Roy, Forsberg and Sakic on the Avs, Hasek in Buffalo, Brodeur was kicking as in New Jersey, Kariya and Selanne in Anaheim, Cujo and Belfour. Man, things have changed.

The 90's were good shit but the NHL is pretty good right now. The post-lockout NHL has definitely been more exciting. There's also lots of good new stars and big name players all over the league and I think the competition has gone up. One thing I like about this "era" is that there seems to be more competition from every team and there's always new teams creeping into playoff spots whereas in the 90s/early 00s it was almost always Detroit, Dallas, Colorado, St Louis dominating the West with the same 4-5 teams round out the playoff eight and New Jersey, Philly, Ottawa etc in the East. I dunno... the 90's were awesome especially the whole Wings/Avs rivalry and the insanely good Flyers with Lindros but I am really enjoying the current era minus the Flames SUCKING ASS.

Yes, hooray for the lockout, without which Crosby would probably not be a Penguin.

He would have probably been either a Ranger, Blue Jacket or like a Blackhawk. Penguins still had a good chance at getting him. It would have been hilarious to see these teams purposely playing bad to get the #1 draft pick near the end of the season.

Huge trades by the Leafs today, they'll probably still suck for a year or two and then constantly finish 7-9th in the years to come. I think the other teams won they trades.

Some big moves. We'll see, this could go either way. A shakeup was definitely needed though.

For those unaware of the details: Phaneuf, Fredrik Sjostrom, and Keith Aulie to the Leafs for Matt Stajan, Ian White, Niklas Hagman and Jamal Mayers. And Giguere to the Leafs for Blake and Toskala.

Any Bruins fans? You guys just got a better chance at a top 5 pick this year thanks to those Leafs trades.

For the record btw, Ian White is he best d-man right now in that trade

They've been inconsistent this year (Bruins) compared to last year but once Tim Thomas stops making too many baffling mistakes and the team starts scoring, the team should be much better assuming they get a decent playoff spot number.

Ian White is fantastic. I'm surprised you're not familiar with his play since you have 30 favourite teams and thus must follow all of them?

The only one I am really upset about is Ian White. He has definitely been the Leaf defenseman this year.

But to get Dion Phaneuf on the Leafs? That's awesome.

Phaneuf holds all the potential in the deal. If he shakes himself back into being a better player, then the Leafs have a player to build around. Oherwise the Flames won that deal. The Giggy deal is a smart move by the Ducks and it does give the Leafs something better. Good deal all around.

Stajan and White are both free agents. White is going to ask for a large raise probably between 3-4 mill a season, and Stajan will be looking for between 2-3 mill. Hagman makes 4 mill and Mayers is a useless twit. Not sure how the Flames are planning on signing Stajan or White, cause they are right against the cap. I also heard they want Kovy from the Thrashers so I wouldn't be surprised to see Stajan moved.

The 90's were horrific. The Devils started a trend that made the NHL almost unwatchable. 90-94 I won't argue with you was awesome and fun to watch. 95-2000 was God awful.

Yeah you're right about quality declining from the mid 90s as soon as "the trap" hit the scene
The late 90's still had some exciting stuff mostly because of ridiculously good players being in their prime like Lemieux, Jagr, Lindros, Hasek

So the Flames moved Joke-in and Prust to the Rangers for Kotalik and ??? - What purpose is there in that for the Flames? Koalik is a healthy scratch every night and he's owed 6 million over the next 2 years. At least with Jokinen he was a UFA at the end of the year.

Didn't help that they played the Bruins who now own league worst scoring average so once Caps started scoring in 3rd, Bruins wouldn't respond back.

Capitals do have to worry about creating a "SJ Sharks" effect where they become dominate in the regular season but then come up short in the playoffs each year. Although unlike the Sharks, they do advance more times out of the 1st round.

I dunno the Caps have made it to the finals but that doesn't mean anything since the current team is completely different. I think they won't have the Sharks effect. Ovechkin is different than Thornton. Also last year I would say that if they had beat the Pens they would have made it to the Finals. This year I'm thinking Caps/Hawks final.

Ovechkin now only needs 1 pt for 500 in his career, just scored to give the Caps a 3-2 lead over the Rangers.

Thrashers captain Ilya Kovalchuk, who turned down a $101 million dollar contract off from Atlanta, has been traded to the Devils.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
Atlanta Thrashers left wing Ilya Kovalchuk is on his way to New Jersey.


The Devils will give up forward Niclas Bergfors, defenseman Johnny Oduya, junior star Patrice Cormier and a future first-round draft pick.

I now have the first line for the Devils in Fantasy (Langenbrunner, Zajac and Kovalchuk)...hmm
