I would do that deal in a heartbeat with the way Tampa is playing. I doubt the Jets do it though. Buff is a legit top 4 physical presence and produces offensively.

Sometimes for the opposition...but that's correctable. If Trotz can get Ovechkin to keep his feet moving, there is a coach out there who can get DB to stay in the play.

First, Sami Kapanen got crushed by a devastating bodycheck


Hero.

Sami Kapanen should never have to buy a drink in this town just by virtue of sucking it up and playing on the blueline for that team. One of the most selfless things I've ever seen an athlete do.

My friend and his wife had just had their first kid, so he invited me over to watch this game. They spend a few hours trying to get her down to sleep. JR scores literally 10 minutes after she's finally out. Needless to say, my friend and I had to watch the rest of the games at another location.

Flyers and the Canes have something in common. They both have 2 players they want to get rid off with 3 years left. Would anyone else mind a Lecavalier Semin swap?

If they equalize the cap hit, I'd drive VL to the airport myself.

Semin's due $21M. Vinny $8.5M after July 1. Canes could fully eat 50% of Semin's contract and still come out spending less in the end.

While that clip was from the Canadian feed, Jim Jackson's play by play during that OT was phenomenal. The cadence in his voice really made it all that much more intense.

OT hockey, especially playoff OT hockey is second to none.

Edit: And May 4th, 2004.... I can't believe it's been 11 years.

I'm out of stuff now that Goulbourne is out. I can't get home in time to watch the Q or the O. I hate watching games when I already know the score and there's no way around it on Hockeystreams.

No thanks, Semins cap hit makes VLC contract look like a bargain.

Giroux and Couturier just took a shift together with Seguin. Pretty good offensive zone pressure too.

can't you disable the score display on HS? It's right next to the league filter dropdown menu

True but the extra cap hit could be enough to move up in the draft or they could eat some of the salary.

Czech Republic actually. Giroux and Voracek's lines are going head to head.

I use it on my Roku and there's not a way to eliminate see the score.

Agree with Tomahawk, the money would have to be evened out somehow. Semin's got a world of talent, but he's getting to be a lot like Zherdev.

The tournament is in Czech this year too.

Voracek's hockey career has been awesome last few years. He's captain of the team this year I believe.

At least the guy can still break games when he puts his mind to it -- and is a winger.

Vinny's 100% toast.

Yeah, I'm at the point where I try to trade Vinny right up until the end of the buyout window, and then pay him to go the (frank) away

I'd do that in a heartbeat. Semin on the left side with G and V - dude would be jumping through hoops to stay in the lineup and on that line.

Im sure G and V could make Semin very valuable. He has lots of skill. He's just a strange bird
