Just wait. I think going back to the divisions (conferences my ass) will be great for playoffs. Maybe not the first year but you'll find rilvalries created that will last a long time. I miss the old Norris days of the Leafs playing the Blues and the Wings. This will bring that back.

That Jack Edwards fellow seems to be a bit of a Bruins fan as well...he hides it pretty well in his commentary though... :rolleyes:

Happy Birthday, Here's hoping your Bruins move up out of the basement.

Crescent Street has most of the bar scene if you're looking for that.

Gretzky was your hero so you were a Kings fan? How does that work? I liked Michael Jordan but it doesn't mean I was a die hard Wizards fan... ;)

That's what your clutch hand is for or a throttle lock.

Depends how many fingers you have in your nose.

Tell them you've secretly been in love with the dog and plan to go to Mexico to live and get married. Also mention you've sold the mining rights to their property to a strip mining operation to fund your trip/love affair. Then mention you've taken up cigars. After a couple of weeks come back...

Careful with the GPS you don't end up in Bronson, Missouri. "This ain't over."

That's something that I find boring as well. Every driver and team is so worried about offending a sponsor or France they won't say anything. It's like a chicken and egg thing. If you are boring and people tune out sponsors won't tolerate much. However if you have personality, get more...

I got bored with all the commercials. It seemed that if it was green that meant commercial time. I get they pay the bills but there has to be a balance with how many pay the bills once people stop watching.

Apparently Brule was a throw in to the Smyth trade with the plan being for the Kings to buy him out however Brule has to be cleared as healthy by the Drs before he can be bought out and right now there are disagreements (I imagine from Brule's agent) that Brule is not healthy and isn't ready to...

Lots of rumours about Richards and Carter liking to party and what not. And Richards was getting moodier and more withdrawn with the media. It seemed a done deal that one, likely Carter, would be traded but I was surprised to see both. I think it's one (or two) of those trades that really...

An old ref right? ;) I think it would be good to re name a few. The Pearson has become the Ted Lindsay which makes sense as it's voted on by the players. However I think it would be a shame to lose the history that some of those trophies carry. I'd recommend renaming the Lady Byng though...

That idea gets a lot of press and talk up here around award time. A couple of years ago it seemed like it was almost a done deal for that award to be in. There was also talk about renaming a few other trophies and that seemed to derail most of the process. There's an award for a defensive...
