Okay, I have a master plan.

The NHL makes Mike Milbury the GM of the Coyotes.

Wit, wait - just hear me out.

Mike Milbury distributes the Coyotes roster throughout the NHL in exchange for the rats on every other NHL roster.

The NHL Rat All Star team all spear each other in their very first contact drill, you know, to be an effective player.

Arizona folds and the NHLPA/NHL insurance covers the remaining value of the players' terminated contracts.

The Coyotes don't even have the talent required to trade for a team of rats.

Boedker is worth at least three rats. Domi straight up for a 9-goal rat. Vermette seems to be really high on a lot of GMs' list for some reason. Maybe they think if they get him from Tippet's system that he'll keep playing defense? That's worth a young rat.

OEL is a force. He is everything I wish Letang was. I would trade Letang and Rat Futures to AZ for OEL.

Are we done with cheap shot talk yet? Guess it could be worse, we could all be obsessing over Tom Brady's deflated balls.

as would i with oel and letang. and i still dont think hes hit his peak.

i think boedker is pretty good too. and i like vermette. not for some mega cost, but he is a fine enough third line center.

When a player flips like that, the hit was knees or lower. Big difference between that hit and the one Jake took.

And that glimmer of hope means that he may well be an effective NHLer.

Seriously, how is the NHL going to combat its rat problem? James Neal can't target the head of every other fellow rat, there's only one of him.

- Johnny Wrath

Find a way to get the goons back up. They occupied a bunch of rat roster spots and were could for occasionally chasing them around the ice in comedic fashion.

I would much rather have the 12th forward be a couple of guys like Laraque and Raitis Ivanans than a couple of guys like Rinaldo and Farnham. The role is different. The former are there to pretend there is some code they're enforcing while the latter are there in order to do something disgraceful. I think the NHL pushed out the wrong class of player.

So who makes up the new 'Yotes?

Rinaldo, Downie, Carcillo, Lapierre, Ott, Cooke, Marchand, Burrows, Kaleta...

Who else?

Does anyone else laugh when they see people in Rinaldo jerseys at games? I'm a reserved man but I do go out of my way to laugh and shake my head every time I see one.

Rioalto Socks are the most friggin' comfortable things you could slip your feet into. I think they're made from Alpaca, Bamboo and a drop of blood from one of your enemies. Worth every cent.

Farnham looked like he had some class. He could have gone early when Bellemare was down and he could have gone late when he was on top of him. Honestly... first time I saw him though.

i feel like you should have to order one via customization.

i cant understand how a grown individual would pay money for such a thing.

Yeah, but he was recalled from the minors, picked a fight with a guy trying to play hockey, got KOd, and is back in the minors today.
