I was going to go to bed but then I felt like being a Richard to my own fans. Glad I decided to be a Richard, it was fun watching all the goals go in.

Yeah that essay he wrote on why he hates Russell, along with the preceding 300 or so blogs he has written about the topic before that, pretty much has me convinced that Russell has crossed Hendo at some point in his life. Maybe got the girl Hendo wanted, or he is good on the trampoline and Hendo despises him for that.

Mclellan's comments to the media about sums up the description of those who live and die by fantasy stats. They have never played a minute of organized team sports in their lives.

- leonkennedy

I agree with all of this! I think Russell was showing off his sweet trampoline skills one day. Hendo's girl liked what she saw and sucked him harder than Jero at a lady boy love party. Hendo sure holds onto a grudge and knows squat about hockey.

Facts are facts. You two don't show up when the team is winning.

Oh? Am I not here? Did I not cheer for them to win? I was out at the bar watching sorry if I didn't post during the game

You're an idiot. Facts are facts.

What a treat for the staff and patrons of the establishment you attended last night. I hope you got your seniors discount and a few drinks on the house for being the oldest (frank)ing person in the place.

You kinda cheer for them to win but when they do you pick out all the negative things about said win and chirp about how they didn't deserve it.

Still feel bad for LB. Had a great 1st and 2nd. That weird fluke goal in the 3rd really knocked down his confidence and it showed. Still, don't know how that puck got into the net!

That's simple. He played that angle poorly and got beat. The secrets out now and I bet every team the Oil play going forward with LB in net, he will get lots of shots from down on the goal line to that same side.

Not gonna be THAT easy to get rid of Russell Hit up Detroit while Holland is still employed.

Claim Davidson

Russell (125k retained) for Helm

3rd, 6th and Pasquale for Pickard

See about getting Duclair out of Arizona

- MaximumBone


Those two I'm open to.

All depends on whether a big deal or a small deal is done.

As for that 3 way trade between EDM/CAR/DET... after thinking about how I would approach this...

It would have been centered around Rask, Edmonton 1st to Detroit, RNH, Kronwall, and Detroit 1st to Carolina, Faulk and (Tatar OR Nyquist) to Edmonton.

Carolina would probably ask for a slightly more (a prospect, possibly from EDM), but the value is there for each team.

Each team addresses a need (EDM=defense and RW top 6 depth; Detroit=cap space, 2C center; Carolina=solid 1Cb (upgrade over Rask*) and a solid 1st round draft pick for deepening/improving forward prospect options).

One key thing here is to look at what each team loses and how it can be manageable. Detroit can lose one of Tatar or Nyquist with Mantha developing into a stellar top 6 option. EDM might lose depth down the middle, but the team will be more well balanced. Carolina can cover up the depth on the right side with how stellar their depth is when it comes to defense. Kronwall would definitely help mentor the young defensive core of Carolina for two years. Then he is gone.

But with how RNH is playing........ Idk.

You and oildumb only show up after a win.

And your lame attempts at bashing my age are hilarious given that you're older than me

Same when they lose or win. Pick out the good the bad and the ugly.
And lately there has been more bad and ugly than good.

Clearly wasn't that lame seeing as how you were compelled to respond. Plus the fact littlericky loved it and littlericky knows comedy.

I totally agree and I think lack of confidence is huge which is why I don't mind these ugly wins.

Change it to a Detroit second and you guys win the draft lottery with your native first and it’s a deal.

Yeah it was messed up. MaximumBone did a breakdown of what happened though and it made perfect sense to most. Something about Jew Corsi.

Wow! What a terrible blog. Henderson you are a whiny little female dog. I hope you're a good archeologist, because you're a horrible blogger.

Didn't see the game last night. Apparently, we suck... Just not as bad as Calgary.

Meh. So someone else gets waived. Inconsequential move.

I’d rather Davidson than Gryba, even if he did have a good game against the Flames.
