Apparently there are rumors of a Staal for Yandle+ trade. The plus would be a second this year and a third next year. That would be very tempting. He and Letang would be godly together.
Edit: I guess the rumor came from Ekland. Nevermind.
Well, since we are all spreading rumours....I can not confirm or deny that the Leafs are interested in doing anything.
Oops wrong guy...
Truculence, 5 first round picks, exploring options, building blocks for the future and to be excited about going forward, blaah blahh we looked good in February, Sedin is not english for punch me or headlock me in scrum.

"Reports"
They played together for USA in world competitions, never on the same junior team or anything. I think Parise did play high school with Patrick Eaves, though, if Detroit press wants to run wild with that one. I don't doubt Detroit as a destination, but ZOMG Zack totes went to high school and ND with Drew Stafford! And his high school team was called Sabres! Mark it down!
I will never believe a Detroit-based report about anything.

When it originated weeks ago, a Detroit media outlet wasn't the source.
Thank god I don't have to go through the same anxiety I went through last year with signing Stamkos. We even got Hedman signed during the season too! Just need to find that goaltender of the future...
I just spent far too much time watching YouTube videos of the Red Wings' 1997 and 1998 playoff runs.
15 year anniversary of their first Cup in 42 years today.
I really wish I could get my hands on the DVDs (or more likely a VHS copy) of the entire playoff run. I was only 8 years old when they won. Plus, Gary Thorne doing play-by-play is ungodly awesome.
Can someone explain to me what happened here? Was the Norfolk player clearing the puck and it took a wacky bounce off the boards? I can't see the puck at all.

I can see the puck at the end on the last view they show. My guess is Norfolk sold their soul for amazing forms of success this year.
But seeing goals like that is always lame. You just hope the stanchions don't decide to play a huge role in, oh, the AHL finals overtime or in double overtime of the deciding game of the Western Conference Finals.
With the resurgence of the NHL discussion in the last couple months, I'm wondering who here would be interested in a fantasy off-season like we used to do a couple of years ago : Acting as GM of a team or two, draft, sign and trade players. If about 15 or more would be good to go, I could run this thing, starting in a week or two. You don't have to know that much about hockey, just do some research for the draft and every one here would be okay to play.
I take it no one is interested? (except you Jensen)
I'd do it if we get enough interest. Create another thread and see how many people sign up. Last time we had to double or triple up on some teams which is fine with me.
I wouldn't mind the Devils winning tonight so the Kings have a chance to win Game 6 on their home ice. Always cooler that way, especially for a team's first Cup in ages (or ever).
