    They said nobody can touch it Sunday in Rochester. I am hoping and praying that they'll let folks touch it Saturday night. Either way I'll get a picture with it, which will be sweet.

    I was 13 when I got my picture with the cup. I got as close as I could without touching it..you know, at that point I still believe someday I could win it.

      Kensington? Why is it going to Kensington? There may be 3000 people that live in that town. I should know, I used to live there... Def. a shock to me to see that towns name anywhere regarding the Cup.

To put it another way, if MNS ever gets any, he'll appreciate the experience on a far deeper level than the rest of us did when it was our first time, simply because he's gone far longer and failed far more than we ever did.

        Rangers get Sauer signed at 2 years 1.25M per. Good signing, he'll probably be due for a raise at the end of those 2 years.

            We have a trade.

            Washington trades Eric Fehr to the Winnipeg Jets. In exchange the Capitals receive Danick Paquette and a 4th round pick in the 2012 amateur draft.

              Unfortunate for WMU, he did one hell of a job.

                I saw fromer Lightning GM Brian Lawton at a kids' lacrosse game in Edina last night. I wonder if he's back working for Octagon as an agent, or what. I know they owned a ginromous, expensive home in Edina.

                    Re: 2011 NHL Off-Season: The Puck Boat edition

                    Went to the Preds' "Skate of the Union" (groan) today/tonight. One interesting item that was discussed was realignment. In short, the team President explained that all teams are being asked to provide feedback and that nothing is set in stone at all. He also intimated that Nashville would like to move East.

                    The Preds' new home jersey was also officially unveiled, in a rather cool way. They had a banner on the "Batman" building, Nashville's most iconic skyscraper (stop snickering), which dropped to reveal a banner featuring the new jersey and the slogan "behold the gold".

                    All in all not a bad night; plenty to do for fans - locker room tours, used equipment sales, autograph sessions, interactive games for the kids, etc. Was impressed with the crowd given that it was 97.

                      Naturally, it'll be Detroit, Columbus or Nashville.

                      I like Nashville in terms of doing a straight swap between the central and southeast divisions.

                      I like Columbus for the geography and the ability to finally put the Ohio team against the Pennsylvania teams.

                      I like Detroit for sheer tradition... although that would stink to break them away from Chicago.

                      At the end of the day... I guess I'm pulling for Nashville to the SE, Winnipeg to the Central. It rocks the fewest boats.

                        Oh, one other tidbit - they did mention that regardless of what occurs with realignment, they expect that each team will play every team in the league a minimum of twice a year. If you're fan of an Eastern Conference team stuck in a Western Conference city (or vice versa), that's tremendous news.

                          There's this moron on a Rangers board I read who thinks the Rangers could land Stamkos with a package built around Gaborik. Anyone want to help me explain how absurd that is?

                            Have you read the proposals on offer sheets for Stamkos before as well? Crazy, crazy people.

                              Rangers resign Brian Boyle to a 3-year, $5.1 million deal to avoid arbitration.

                              1.7 cap hit.

                              Rangers now have $11.9 left for Callahan, Dubinksy, and one or two defenseman.
