Next Show - Dec 17th at 9PM

This will be the last show for 2008.  We will recap that year that was, and have our New Year’s Resolutions for 2009.  After last week’s debacle, it should make for an interesting show.  Tune us in, won’t ya?

FA Frenzy Day Two

It’s Day Two of the July FA Frenzy. Thankfully, it hasn’t been as chaotic as yesterday. But there have been several signings. So, let’s do a quick recap:
1.Nik Antropov leaves Broadway for the Thrashers agreeing to 4 yrs, $16 million. At least Borat came down from his five million demand. Best of luck. Dac Vee [...]

Chill out, fellow Devils fans!

Every year it seems like I hear the same ol’ complaints from fans in Devils Nation, people whine about how we don’t do enough - despite throwing out some questionable UFA contracts in recent years - and teams around us get so much better, and every year the Devils are fine though lately not so [...]

Heatley the new Yashin

Well, it’s official. Dany Heatley is the new Alexei Yashin. The Ottawa Senators have revisited history they’d sooner forget. Even if they did eventually ripoff Mike Milbury for the holdout center, stealing Zdeno Chara and a No.1 pick (Jason Spezza). Bet some forgot about Bill Muckalt also being thrown in.
Almost a decade later, how do [...]

Rangers sign Gaborik, Gionta goes to Montreal

And the moves just keep on coming!
Guess we now know why Glen Sather was anxious to get rid of Scott Gomez and his cap-killing deal.  So he could turn right around and offer another cap-killing deal to Marian Gaborik.  Oh, it’ll be a great acquisition for the 15 games a year he plays…unfortunately he’s getting [...]

Madness begins: Hawks sign Hossa 12 years, Gaborik to NYR, Gionta/Madden leave NJ (UPDATED)

We’re not anywhere near completion of Day 1 of what essentially is a hockey holiday. The July 1 free agent frenzy has begun with plenty of activity thus far.
The biggest story has been the Blackhawks getting the madness started by incredibly inking Marian Hossa to a 12-year, $62.8 million contract. Yes.  Really. 12 YEARS for [...]

Clemmensen lands in Florida

Well last season’s Cinderella story will have a new address this year with word that Scott Clemmensen has inked a 3 year, $3.6 million deal with the Panthers to be Tomas Vokoun’s backup.  That’s actually better than I thought he’d do moneywise, and seeing as Vokoun’s not quite the 77-game a year goalie Martin Brodeur is [...]

Four hours into UFA, and chaos abounds!

Well the first day of NHL free agency certainly hasn’t lacked for news.  Less than a half hour after free agency officially opened for business came the first big signing when Mattias Ohlund left Vancouver to go to Tampa Bay for a seven year, $25.5 million deal.  Yes, for you math majors that means Ohlund will [...]

Something’s Gotta Give

Something is really troubling me this morning. And no. It’s not the fact I liked trading Scott Gomez just for Chris Higgins because it cleared cap space and addressed a need.
But how is it possible that Glen Sather, who is as dumb as it gets when it comes to overpaying free agents could somehow get [...]

FA Frenzy Discussion

Last night, yours truly along with ever popular host Brian- dying for the Sabres to do something along with good Program buddy Chris Wassel talked puck as we threw our darts at the board for the July 1 FA frenzy.
The show went for roughly two hours ranging from Sabres, Devils, Rangers, Islanders to anything NHL [...]

Heatley Update

I just literally walked in and it’s past 1 AM here. Had a fun night covering a minor league ballgame that went 11 with the always exciting walkoff. Made up for the rain and lengthy stay.
As Hasan noted earlier, Dany Heatley rejected the Sens’ trade to Edmonton meaning that once again, an NHL star dissed [...]
