NHL Hot Stove Thread

Gaborik is great when he plays. The question is how many games will he actually play in a blue shirt and how many will he spend nursing an injury?

Having to face him 6 times a year isn't a very enticing possibility.

Gaborik is typical of many eastern European players. They don't skate every shift. As great as he is , Ovechkin does it. Of course with his talent and ability , he could take a whole period off and still be a factor.
Gaborik shows a tremendous propensity
The Rangers just lost Antropov to free agency. Now there is a lazy sack of sh*t.
I have a friend who is a diehard Leafs fan. He was ecstatic when Antropov was dealt away.
NJ's Danius Zubrus is another waste of a pair of skates.
NJ lost Clemmensen( their number one goalie of the future) A still very capable John Madden and pain in the ass, pocket rocket , Brian Gionta. Gionta will reunite with Scott Gomez in Montreal.

The Pens lost Gill. They will probably lose Fedatenko (SP?) and Scuderi.

"lost"?
NO, for the Pens, losing Gill is a gain.
The guy is 6ft 6 and can go into the corners with eggs in his pockets and when he comes out the eggs are unbroken.

We know how Sandra feels about Swedish goalies. You think she'll be intrigued by "The Monster?"

Bruins trade D Aaron Ward to Carolina for forward Pat Eaves and 4th rd draft pick next year. then Bruins waive eaves for the purpose of buying out contract. Seems like they're making cap space to sign Phil Kessell. Paul

Ward going back to Carolina, probably a good move for him.

Hossa will miss part of the season due to shoulder surgery. Too bad.

Center Ice renewal

I just got my NHL Center Ice renewal notice the new price $163.80 early bird price $40.95 in four installments.
Where do they come up with these amounts? $163.80 what a strange amount you would think that they would round up.
