NHL Goal of 07-08 - Rick Nash...again?

OK Pete, here it is. If most of us tried these moves with no defense we would likely end up injured. And yes, he does beat former Avalanche organization members - Derek Morris and Keith Ballard.

When you get to the NHL.com page there is another link that says "Watch Nash's Goal" right below the picture. Start here to find eternal happiness.

Trivia question # 5

What is wrong with this picture? Choose the Best answer.A) The sight of two white helmets?
B) The look of yellow gloves?
C) The presence of two wooden sticks?
While all the answers are correct, the best answer is C!

Star Wars fan?

While we may make occasional Star Wars references, it should be pointed out that they relate to the affinity for new composite sticks shared by E5 and yours truly.
I do not know anyone who has waited in line for the premiere showing of a Star Wars movie. I think "Triumph the Insult Comic Dog" does a good job in this clip with certain Star Wars "fans."

Punks of the NHL....part 2










You may love this guy if he is on your team. Otherwise you do not.
When Sean Avery got to Detroit as a rookie he came into the locker room and said "Don't worry boys the big dog is here." They then gave him the nickname "Pup."




Last year he said that French Canadians all wore visors because they were soft. When Ian Laperierre tried to fight him he backed down every time.
He is also the only player Peter Forsberg has ever started a fight with. You can also hate him because he is now a Ranger or because he dates / dated Elisha Cuthbert. Yes, she's "your type!"

Pre-game intensity?

Is the NHL salary cap working?

Well, Al Strachan thinks it is as he states in this article. I thought it was an interesting read and also found the reader's comments somewhat intriguing.

For Scott and others....

Specially re-added for this week - for the benefit of Scott and fantasy hockey enthusiasts. The "Coach Jules Winfield video" is always worth a chuckle. And remember, Chelios sucks!
