In the grim darkness of the future there is only Oakley.

I dunno, the backup D-men have been pretty decent so far from what I've seen for Vancouver.

Sbisa still needs to go though.

I'll never understand why there's no penalty for loving around with players on ice after icing

"Oh, poo poo, I'm sorry. Yes, I'm a professional NHL player and I only make this error when it benefits my team, but I totally just had a concentration lapse. You mean I wasn't on the ice there? poo poo. Oh well, back to the bench. Glad my team got an extra 30 seconds of rest while you figure it out"

It is lovely and should be a delay of game in my opinion. Every team does it and it should stop.

Refs are letting some poo poo go. Was a weak slash but still a slash, looked like some trippyish poo poo going on in the Wild defensive zone. Didn't really seek the hook from Daniel when you only have one hand on the stick though to be honest but whatever, hooks a hook. Then he gets a leg lock put on him.

yeah, sorry, wasn't trying to call out any specific players or teams. Sedin just brought it back to mind. I'm aware it's widespread.

With any luck they'll treat it like diving where you get a warning or two, then a fine and more fines from there, coach as well.

I want to see that minor delay of game but not really garbage gone from the game.

That was Flyers/Penguins level nuts for like 20 seconds.


And cut to a shot of the linesman trying to pull Burrows off of a Minnesota player after a scrum.

I like Eddie. Let's keep him.

edit: he'll probably be traded for Dan Ellis

He'll play for us for another half decade, then we'll bring in a coach from the Rangers who will sleep with his wife then poo poo on his dog and he'll get traded.
