Posted Sunday October 04, 2009, About: Will Leafs bench Toskala for 'Monster'

Or from the other end of the rink, for that matter

Posted Friday August 21, 2009, About: Heatley won't hold out on Sens

I say make him play in the Central League. Make him take bus rides all the way the to games. Make him eat humble pie at how spoiled he is to be playing in the NHL.

Posted Wednesday August 19, 2009, About: Sharks strip Marleau, Thornton of captain's honors

I think it might be because they've been so dominant in the regular season that they don't have enough motivation left. Then when they get to the playoffs they actually have to get motivated, which apparently isn't much for them.

Posted Sunday August 16, 2009, About: Notre Dame's No. 1 QB is...

Yeah, I was gonna say, he's been the starting QB for a while...

Posted Sunday August 16, 2009, About: Is KHL getting serious?

I would like to point out how Esche was Team USA's starting goalie at the recent World Championships. And that it was a tandem of him and Al Montoya. Ouch.

Posted Sunday August 02, 2009, About: Louisville dumps RB after month

Hey, give the man credit. It takes serious skills to get kicked off the team this fast.

Posted Monday June 08, 2009, About: LJ playing nice in KC

I know, right? Bout time he got hit with reality. Though to be honest I really was getting annoyed with all his whining about playing time. But anyways, good luck to him next season.

Posted Sunday June 07, 2009, About: Pens keeping Crosby, Malkin apart

Give him credit, Fleury lived up to his name, a flower. And he subsequently wilted like one.

Posted Sunday June 07, 2009, About: Is Gaborik worth Rangers' risk?

Haven't the Rangers learned that buying players hasn't worked out for them, already?

Posted Sunday June 07, 2009, About: Tension between Lightning owners?

It probably doesn't help their on-ice team that they can't get along and make good decisions

Posted Monday June 01, 2009, About: Colorado pair to transfer

The band geek in me loved the part about the pursuing the music major program

Posted Monday June 01, 2009, About: Vols QB reports death threats

Come on people, it's just a bleeping game here. You're not exactly helping his confidence by saying "the next interception you throw, you're dead".

Posted Wednesday May 13, 2009, About: Fighting on rise in NHL

Yup, I agree. Personally, I love the occasional non-fighter fights, ala Stamkos and Zherdev, but that's just me. But yeah, fights are fights and there's no denying it. Although Bettman probably is in denial, but heck he always is.

Posted Wednesday May 13, 2009, About: Toronto denies Tampa trade rumors

That there are some really dumb people out there? That Tampa Bay management is really screwing the team over? Or for that matter, Lawton sucks as a GM?

Posted Wednesday May 13, 2009, About: Senators defenseman to Russia?

Does Bell and his agent count? If not, then probably no

Posted Wednesday May 13, 2009, About: Hurricanes chasing Utah QB

Is it just me that finds it funny that a Mormon kid is going to go to Miami where it's not exactly the clean and moral place that Utah is?

Posted Monday April 27, 2009, About: Rangers ask NHL to punish Caps

LOL, there's the power of proper sentence grammar for ya.

Posted Saturday April 18, 2009, About: Gilroy to sign with Rangers?

You're right, he was never drafted so he was a free agent. In fact, he turned down about 20 offers from teams to return to BU over last summer.

Posted Sunday March 15, 2009, About: Leafs coach: 'We're short on talent'

Saying 'we're short on talent' is the understatement of the year

Posted Sunday March 15, 2009, About: Lightning owners feuding?

Well it wouldn't suprise me given how bad they've been this season
