I bet there’s lots of lame hand rubbing and snickering in Sens land this morning after shellacking the Habs 6-1 last night; even getting a goal from Alex “Big Dawg” Kovalev. It was frikkin PRE SEASON, give it a rest you whiny cranky Ottawa Freaks! 🙂 That being said myContinue Reading
Either Brian Burke is Goofy or Nostradamus. Only time will tell. The trade was pulled and the Leaf Nation will have much to talk about whether it’s the 2 First round Picks and a 2nd or the $5.4 contract that the 22 year old will cash in on. He’s notContinue Reading

Well it’s all settling in for the fans of San Jose, Ottawa, and the NHL in general. Some interesting coverage has been written with some interesting comments and suggestions. And the more I read about Michalek, the more I like. I can see him doing quite well with “Big Dawg”Continue Reading
L I N K Two big play-off stiffs together finally. Now SJ can have Heatley and Thornton rack up those regular season points only to disappear in the play-offs. The Sens finally dumped Dany Heatley and his monster contract to the SJ Sharks. Ottawa includes a 5th round pick andContinue Reading
I think no matter what decision judge Redfield T Baum makes this week regarding Jim Balsillie’s attempt to move the Phoenix Coyotes to Hamilton I have a hunch legal appeals and silliness will be launched. Yes, the lawyers are getting richer from this case and the fans suffer. To me,Continue Reading

I love hockey. I’ve had the opportunity to work with some of the greatest players ever to lace up skates. It just bugs me to read about Dany Heatley and Mats Sundin. If I were a GM I wouldn’t want either of these duds on my team. Heatley held upContinue Reading
