Wayne Gretzky stole the show last night for the opening of the 2010 Winter Olympic games in Vancouver British Columbia last night.

Hmm……Dominic Moore, as a rent a player, for a 2nd rounder? Pierre Gauthier’s first acquisition as Habs GM seems a bit pricey for the one season 7 team NHL’er. When you play for 7 teams in a short period of time it usually means that you’re most likely aContinue Reading
