the brass were pretty underwhelmed when we had the draft here too weren't they?

CRACKERS

Folks, come to Thursday's game, give up 3 MEAGER DOLLAR BUCKS and get your picture taken with the 4 Olympic medals outside of Section 113

Proceeds go the Kids & Community Foundation!

3/2/2010 2:10:56 PM

sweet! I'll pony up the cash.

3/2/2010 2:29:34 PM

that's actually pretty sweet. i might have to drive down for that

3/2/2010 2:38:01 PM

oh hellz yeah

lol, the canes' site notes that the $3 donation is tax-deductible

3/2/2010 2:38:27 PM

So are we going to be able to trade Whitney?

3/2/2010 2:41:53 PM

I say not likely.

Bob McKenzie (TSN) says it's not gonna happen with Pittsburgh more than likely, so the LA thing is our best bet.

3/2/2010 2:45:05 PM

oh whitney will be traded


have no fear

3/2/2010 2:50:30 PM

I definitely have fear, and have for months now. This has Mats Sundin written all over it.

3/2/2010 2:53:13 PM

The prices for marginal garbage is already going through the roof the day before the deadline, I don't see a whole lot of teams offering much more for Whitney. And he's got veto power over any potential trade? Yeah, he's not going anywhere.

I will be PUMPED AS SHIT if he does leave and generate a nice return, but I'm pessimistic at this point.

3/2/2010 2:56:30 PM

just get rid of Aaron Ward for the love of god. If Kurt Warner can be a grocery boy, surely someone needs a GRITTY VETERAN to pump some gas.

3/2/2010 3:00:29 PM

Hopefully Boston wants him. Ottawa grabbed defenseman/pylon Andy Sutton.

3/2/2010 3:01:45 PM

whitney is the best available winger

someone is going to pay what it takes to get him

and this whole vetoing the trade and posturing for a new extension is just high drama

In honor of page 47, Avalanche sign John Grahame

Quote :

"The Colorado Avalanche have signed goaltender John Grahame today. Grahame will be assigned to the AHL's Lake Erie Monters, the team's AHL affiliate. Grahame was last playing for the Adirondack Phantoms of the AHL before signing a contract with the Avalanche. "

I'll always remember the moments like this:

3/2/2010 4:56:36 PM

3/2/2010 5:19:44 PM

3/2/2010 5:55:13 PM

Ward is scratched tonight, and has supposedly been dealt.

3/2/2010 6:08:19 PM

Yelle scratched as well, possibly dealt to an unnamed local A league team.

3/2/2010 6:12:18 PM

ahaha

3/2/2010 6:29:10 PM

Whitney - Staal - Jokinen
LaRose - Sutter - Ruutu
Samsonov - Dwyer - Cole
Kostopoulos - Brind'Amour - Walker

Pitkanen - Corvo
Picard - Gleason

Peters
Legace

3/2/2010 6:56:47 PM

Picard is in for the tank job.

3/2/2010 7:11:06 PM

Picard making a great first impression.

3/2/2010 7:11:16 PM

LaRose AM pissed.

3/2/2010 7:12:30 PM

Uh...Giggy?

1-0 from Chad.

3/2/2010 7:13:20 PM

That was hilariously stupid.

3/2/2010 7:13:34 PM

im lovin all these first-night-back goals from the Canes

3/2/2010 7:51:06 PM

Beautiful feed by teh wizard and it seems Jussi Jokinen is still PISSED about the Olympics. 10 game point streak.

3/2/2010 8:02:16 PM

sutter SCOOOOOAAARS

3/2/2010 8:17:40 PM

PLAYOFFS?!?!?!

3/2/2010 8:18:08 PM

THESE IS THE TIMES

3/2/2010 8:18:37 PM

3/2/2010 8:21:12 PM

RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTUUUUUUUUUUUU

3/2/2010 8:23:34 PM

Nice.

3/2/2010 8:24:16 PM

3/2/2010 8:24:24 PM

remember when Giguere won the Conn Smythe.... that was awesome

3/2/2010 8:25:18 PM

is this a high school team?

3/2/2010 8:31:04 PM

that was the most ridiculous even strength possession i've ever seen

3/2/2010 8:32:40 PM

That's embarrassing, especially for 5 on 5 hockey. Would've been even better had we converted.

3/2/2010 8:33:08 PM

^^agreed, even my wife who doesnt know much about hockey was amazed by that possession. She said something along the lines of, "why are they playing like that? why cant they get the puck?"

haha

3/2/2010 8:48:23 PM

Alexei Ponikarovski reportedly dealt to Pittsburgh, meaning one of two known destinations for Whitney (LA the other but he already refused to waive his NTC once for them) is now off the board.

3/2/2010 8:53:44 PM

Where the hell did that come from Samsonov?

3/2/2010 9:01:57 PM

This game is lollertastic.

3/2/2010 9:04:46 PM

Dammit he just can't get a shutout.

3/2/2010 9:18:40 PM

none of them can lol

3/2/2010 9:22:27 PM

BEAP BEAP
