Yzerman talked to Nabokov's agent

Ummm....kay.

Let us know if that should change.

If i was Yzerman, i would try to sign Nabakov to the same kind of deal we gave Zherdev. He can't be any worse than what they've got already, but there's still imo a significant enough risk to warrant a 1 year small money deal. For what it's worth, i don't think Nabby would get discombobulated from a spin-o-rama 90 feet out. Just sayin...

"I'm not today prepared to make a change in goal," Yzerman said Wednesday.

However, tomorrow.........

Steve proves once again that he is smart-and should be steering the good ship Flames.

Why not change it, it's not like the ning goaltending could get any worse. Give it a shot.

HC I don't think it's environmentally correct to "burn leaves" anymore but we'll make a special exemption for you today.

Go Flames Go

Your avatar is my screen saver year round-you should incorporate it. Massively pumped to see the first check Regher lays on Primadionne tonight !!!!!!!

Tomorrow of course, is a completely different story! :)

I wonder if it will have as big an impact as his "fireside" chat with Mike Greene did when he didn't make the Limpic roster?

The thought of it just about makes Seabird squirt.

Stevie is just trying to show he doesn't have to prove himself. But with almost 4 goals a game against, he won't sit still for sure.

"Yzerman talked to Nabokov's agent"

More than likely it was: "Nabokov's agent tried to talk Yzerman into giving Nabokov a chance"

Are they desparate enough to take a KHL castoff?

Obviously. As W2 said in #26, they probably had higher expectations for Mike Smith. For all their improvements this year, the Bolts' weak point remains goaltending. I have no problems with Stevie Y signing Nabokov for the rest of the year and see what it does to his team.

Once again it just shows how difficult it is to find a legit Number 1 goaltender.

I'm sensing a trade soon.... Dwayne Roloson anyone?

Don't worry. The Flyers are writing the book on that subject.
