Now if they could just convince Ericsson to hang 'em up, the kids might get enough playing time to eventually fix our D.

Hey, don't you besmirch my favorite terrible defenseman like that.

There is one 1990 draftee still skating in the NHL.

Who is he?

God, how is that possible? Jagr? Chara?

I'll take the Czechs vs the field.

Nice way of phrasing that question so it includes Wes McCauley ('90).


Of active NHL players, the oldest draft class with players are 1996 (Cullen/Chara) and 1997 (Thornton/Marleau).

The writing was on the wall last year given the number of times he was assigned to the B team and West Coast games.

Please tell me this is pro forma to extort some money?

I swear if this falls through we just move back to the Coliseum, do no maintenance, and wait for nature to end the franchise and fanbase.

I only care about 2 pro sports. Why do I get the LOL team in both of them?

Let us know when they sign a competent defense and have a clear #1 goalie.

Andersen is the clear #1. The look out D is an issue.

In reaction to the Caps' Kuznetsov being suspended for 3 games for "inappropriate conduct", Slava Malamud tweeted:

In 1932, French Olympians were allowed to bring wine to Prohibition-era America by arguing it was an inextricable part of French culture and diet. Russian athletes could easily argue the same about cocaine. Specifically, cocaine snorted off the belly of an expensive prostitute.
