- JoeRussomanno

ohh yeah and a baby also..... lol....not really anything to worry about...just got into a fight with my wife...

she doesnt want my mom staying with us for a week because she didnt get a flu shot even though she already had the flu....shes worried about the baby. But i told her actually having the flu and getting over it is a lot better than a flu shot...

Personally i find it disrespectful to have to tell my mom whom i havent seen in two years not to stay with us...

He's an offensive Superstar and a genrational talent. But not the best all around forward in the NHL.

Jagr was a nice player to have last year but hardly what I would call elite. I stand corrected on Forsberg's first season here. As for Pronger that one is kinda borderline and I loved Pronger. He provided a great boost which they are sorely missing but I don't think he was the player we saw in 2007 with Anaheim.
- JoeRussomanno

Yup, you're right Joe.
Since last night's game realizing that the Flyers are worse then the Leafs I've been all messed up today.
Trying to rationalize this by saying the Leafs are a really good team... but they aren't an elite good team like Chicago or Boston.

I saw a story on him recently, I forget where it was. He had no intentions of going out after the game that evening, and someone called him at home and asked him to meet them at the Bennigans. I wonder if the player who called him feels any sense of guilt. Bill would probably know this story if it's true.

at the risk of sounding biased, i have to say crosby. malkin is far and away the most purely talented, but he oftentimes lacks either the discipline or hockey sense to truly dominate as he should. im open to hear arguments to the contrary that are logically based, but for me a healthy crosby is the best

If you average everything out, he is, because his offense makes up for what he lacks defensively (but he's still very good in both ends of the ice).

So my kid just got his grades all up to passing (Cs and above). There are now two grown @$$ men standing at my desk at work asking if he can play Black Ops tonight because they've been getting their butts handed to them for the last couple weeks.

I give a ton of credit to Randy Carlyle and what he has done there. But I think if the Flyers ever get their act together and play the right way. They're better then the Leafs.

anyone realize Brayden Coburn has the most turnovers on this team? 10 more than L. Schenn too. He needs to start getting it going this year, i;ve been underwhelmed with him.

I think Crosby is more talented than Malkin, Malkin's just more flashy. Crosby doesn't try to many dekes and dangles because they're low percentage. I don't think anyone in the league has vision or hockey sense close to Sid's. He's also a tremendous skater.
