Leafs only got 1 ball in the draft lottery :kader: if the Rangers get the #1 pick and get Crosby, I'll kill myself... was watching Sportsnet News, and they were interviewing people in NY and asking about Crosby... only one guy knew who he was :nape:

They are saying it would be good for the league.

But, look what Gretzky did for LA. Crosby can do that for Phoenix or Colombus.

Seriously, NHL press conference at 4PM today. For those of youse that plan on watching, it will be on ESPNEWS in the USA, and TSN in Canada. They're expected to announce the owner's approval of the new CBA and the draft order for July 30th's entry draft.

If you're referring to the "kiss my ass" comment, you're wrong. And you obviously didn't see the whole interview.

You can dislike him, but hes great for the game. He's the most fan friendly player in the league, and this city loves him.

No I'm referring to the "give the Rangers the #1 pick" comment, great way to make the game popular again :|(Y).

The thing with Roenick is that he has the right idea most of the time but he's been hit in the head too many times to interpret it right.

Roenick's a character, a great one at that (H) his interviews are gold



BTW, now the Penguins got Crosby AND Fleury :(

From a Flyers fan with inside information:

"Niedermayer WILL be a Flyer. As I first broke the story and have continued to say. It's done. It's over."

I think its pretty official that hockey in the 'Burg is saved. Looking at ebay this evening for a cheap, 90-95ish pens jersey, i noticed that Crosby jerseys with the number 87 were upwards of 150 dollars. The name/number kit alone was 50 :| This kid is probably gonna get the standard bs of being called overrated, but from the clips I have seen of him (I dont have coverage of the QMJHL) he looks damned impressive, and lets face it, in Mario he is learning from the best (in my twisted view :) )

I was a bit pissed when statistically, they should have had number one last year, and they lost it to the damn caps (which, for the record, was the first and last time the caps beat the pens at anything) but this more than makes up for it all. Fleury, Orpik, Malone, Morozov, Malkin, Welch, Whitney, Koltsov with the veteran presence of Recchi and Mario: all I can say is its about time

This draft is deep. You shouldn't worry too much.


oh yea i've done a bit of research the draft is a very good one from a fan viewpoint, but the hawks management are ******* assholes. they've done little to help the team. they don't wanna televise home games :| and they wonder why there is waning interest in the club from the hometown... if i can't catch a damn game how am i gonna follow the club...? :( im keeping my fingers crossed.

The greatest day in Chicago Blackhawks history won't be the day when you guys finally win the Stanley Cup; it will be the day Bill Wirtz finally drops dead. Sad but true.
