Cornwall ON – The buzz is that the Ottawa Senators are going to be shipping out Alex “Big Dawg” Kovalev in the next day or two; certainly before the trade deadline which tells you something about the market today for goal scorers.
And there is one. There’s a shortage of people who can get a point a game; so much so that guys that get half a point a game and really annoy you are commodities.
Were there this many concussions in hockey before the boys wore helmets or were they just not diagnosed?
And yes, I’d rather see Montreal land Dustin Penner than Alex Kovalev. I think Penner is just the tonic that Scott Gomez needs. A line of Gionta, Gomez and Penner sounds mighty nice and complimentary.
Add in Cammy, Plekanec, and Pacioretty and I’m not that upset going into the play offs. Plenty of mix and match opportunities too.
If for some reason Pierre Gauthier does go for Big Dawg I hope he’s smart enough to grab Matt Carkner as well as Montreal needs some grit and as much as some on talk radio yap about Chris Neil; give me Carkner over Neil any day; especially dollar wise. Talk about your bang for the buck!
If Pierre Gauthier can’t pull of a top six winger then it’s time for Montreal to be sellers; cautious sellers, but sellers. IE; if you don’t want to resign certain UFA’s get some value for them.
In the NHL Wednesday night Ottawa bagged the Panthers 5-1. New goalie Craig Anderson nabbed another win and the team actually played pretty well in front of him. It’s amazing what a good goalie can do for a team….
Ray Emery was called up by the Anaheim Ducks, but they still lost to 3-2. Emery did not start in goal. Buffalo beat Atlanta 4-1. What is it with Atlanta? They have some great talent, but are not getting the wins they should out of this squad and they’re trading patterns and moves seem a bit odd too….
San Jose pecked the Penguins 3-2; the Phoenix didn’t rise in Tampa Bay losing 8-3; and Edmonton stomped the Avalanche 5-1. I’m still trying to get a handle on Colorado’s moves and their head space. You just don’t give up power forwards that easily and they seem to be reloading while rebuilding?
Tonight Toronto is in Montreal to get spanked. It should be fun to watch and listen to Leaf fans whine about what Leaf fans whine about best 🙂
What do you think Hockey fans? You can post your comments below.
You write horribly. It’s “their trading patterns” not “they’re trading patterns.” Is this what Leafs fans whine about best?
Where’s the Leaf’s fans? I have some cars to burn!! 😉
@ Jesus. Nice comment Jesus. Your grammar is no better. Look at your apostrophes.. Jesus u suck as bad as the real Jesus. You are just jealous of success. (Jesus wanna-be)
I think the real Jesus would place the period after the apostrophe. Maybe the preacher could clear this up. Oh sh!t no…bad idea.
Hey, it’s jesus again. Just so you know “Dude,” my use of “it’s,” as in “it is,” is correct. Also, Leafs got spanked tonight. You guys suck, Cornwall sucks, suck it.
oh man furtz……
Sorry Jamie, I’ll stifle myself. But the period that follows the second patterns should be after the apostrophe.
It seems that jesus is apostrophically challenged.
“.. Jesus u suck as bad as the real Jesus”. Do you know the real Lord Jesus?
One day you will have to give an account for such foolish words – Mat 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
Mat 12:37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Hey tnpreacher666, God judged that the people on this earth were bad and would be condemned. So Jesus died on the Cross to save us from this condemnation. Tell me why are we going to be judged again? Is this going to go on ad nauseum?
Just noticed that I too am apostrophically challenged. The “apostrophe” to which I was referring is actually a quotation mark. Please jesus, forgive me. But the period still should follow that quotation mark. 🙂
Antipasta: You are right to say that the Lord Jesus died on the cross to deliver sinners from present and future condemnation. But the only ones who receive the benefits of the Cross are those who repent of their sins (lawlessness, self will, and living without a personal relationship with God via the Lord Jesus), and trust the Lord Jesus by faith alone. To trust the Lord Jesus by faith is to take His death, His sacrifice, His payment, as your personally own sacrifice and payment to God for your sins. If you come to God with His Son’s payment, He will receive you, forgive you, and give you eternal life. But that is not all…
The work of Christ on the cross not only delivers the sinner from the penalty of their sins(just condemnation) but also the pleasure of sins, and the power of sins. The woman taken in adultery in John 8 (for example), the Lord Jesus forgave her – her sin earned her death = just condemnation, but He also said – “go and sin no more”. One who is forgiven, also so receives the gift of the Holy Spirit, Who enables the forgiven one to love God and keep His commandments, in newness of life. You can’t be forgiven and still be living in your sins! You can’t be still the boss! Jesus is Lord! Grace and mercy forgives, and grace and mercy sanctifies – makes us holy!
Hey Antipasta, I’ve got a much better deal for you than the preacher is offering. Rather than counting on some mythical character who may or may not have lived some two-thousand years ago to save you from eternal hell-fire, why not consider my offer? Here it is. I will put it in writing, with a 100% money-back guarantee, that you will NOT go to hell after you croak. All you have to do to take advantage of this offer, is pay my monthly hydro bill for one year. That’s all. You don’t even have to join a cult or be declared insane! The advantages to accepting my offer are obvious.
1: You get a guarantee in writing.
2: I am still alive, therefore able to back up that guarantee.
3: You don’t have to spend the rest of this life babbling like an idiot.
4: You will be doing something useful (paying my hydro bills) in exchange for eternal bliss.
5: Upon your final payment, you are free to fornicate, smoke dope, read horoscopes, become an environmentalist, and do pretty much everything that you want except harm others.
Let me know. I can have the contract drawn up within a few days.
Furtz: Sounds like the deal the Devil sold our first parents!
That’s funny. If that’s the case, the devil was clearly offering the best deal. And in which world was this BS supposed to be happening?
