Re: Canes buying out Semin

You all better be careful what you say though. Alexander Semin will slap you silly! I can never get that video out of my mind! For that reason alone, I could never accept him in a Blues uniform. That's definitely a good reason... but I wouldn't say for that reason alone. There's also the fact that ...

Re: Mike Richards terminated

This isn't the NFL, you can't simply terminate a players contract, it must be bought out. Have you read Richards' contract with the Kings? If not, I don't know how you'd know what can & can't be done in this case. The Kings claim it was a termination pursuant to "a material breach of the r...

Re: Coaches' Challenge

@insideout: No matter where you place the sensor within the disc, it will have a fixed error band in its measurement. So adding 1.5 inches to an unknown value would yield an equivalently uncertain answer to the one from a sensor(s) at the edge. Your point re. a puck covered or obscured from view is...

Re: Coaches' Challenge

this is good, but i'm just baffled they still haven't adopted any kind of technical solution to the puck crossing the goal line. I've wondered about this for years. You can put a chip in the puck to make it look like a comet on TV, but you can't install a sensor that indicates when the puck crosses...

Re: Draft Day Thread

So the spin right now is that Army is doing the right thing by practicing patience. But does the salary cap perhaps dictate that the longer he waits the fewer the options? Did he miss an opportunity today to capitalize on other GMs' impatience? I could see both sides of the argument. Tough call. Th...

Re: Draft Day Thread

I'm feeling there is disappointment on the way. I just can't see a fix for their personnel issues. Seems like the best-case scenario is catching lightning in a bottle.

Re: NHL to begin expansion

Dumb idea. Talent is already too watered down as it is. I hear people say this a lot. What's the basis of this argument? Seems like a the talent pool is deeper now than ever. No way. In the 80s with fewer teams you had MANY more 100 point scorers and a more run and gun game. Not to mention more fig...

Re: Who would've thought......

We're only a year or two behind them in our rebuild :lol: I always remember that from the old board! We were always one year behind them when they won that first cup. I don't know how far we are behind them now but it feels like light years. Hey, we beat them to the golf course....there's that. :) ...

Re: Bergy - Would you...

The recipe for success is to bring in third-liners through your system (which they've done) and replace them from within the system (which doesn't appear likely). If you can't do it that way, then you're going to have a hard time finding a cheaper, comparable alternative to a guy like Berglund. Then...

Re: The Jackman Era is Officially Over

Sad to see Jax go but it was time. Now he can go get himself a cup. Wouldn't that be something? If he went somewhere and wins the cup next season. Just our luck. ha Anyways, I will miss him. This one is hard to let go. Unless he winds up in Chicago I'll be a big fan of whatever team he finds his wa...

Re: Hakanpaa back to Finland?

Ha, a 4th rounder who made it to the AHL is nowhere close to a bust. A player picked in round 4 and beyond who makes it to the NHL is a home run. I found the article about the situation, and the Finnish GM stated that he is interested in signing Hakanpaa if he chooses not to continue his career in ...
