Not to mention last summer was a chance to buy out people without it affecting your cap. Lombardi decided not to thinking Richards would bounce back.

Dean Lombardi made the long trek from California to quiet Kenora, Ont., last summer to see if his eyes could confirm what his heart and gut felt.
He wanted to give Mike Richards a second chance. He asked Richards, who worked with an off-ice trainer for the first time since junior, for a serious commitment.
Lombardi had one last golden chance to initiate a compliance buyout - free and clear of cap penalty. But he decided to take Richards at his word.
"I met with him. He promised that he'd do it. And when a guy looks you in the eye and promises, to me, that goes beyond loyalty," Lombardi told the Los Angeles Times before last season. "A guy's giving you his word. That's more important than a contract or anything else."

[Calamari41]

The Kings represent everything wrong with hockey.

since when is Wil Wheaton a reference on hockey?

He's an example of a die hard Kings fan, thus further demonstrating why the Kings represent everything wrong with hockey.

lol Cherry is going off as expected

I feel like at this point any kid's dreams of playing for the Maple Leafs took a backseat as they became more focused on their junior careers than anything else. How many of them have even had the time for anything more than loosely following the Leafs over the last few years?

 

[Fata1moose]

Seems pretty genuine to me.

He's not, I just find it funny for someone who watches the Kings regularly he's so oblivious to his own team's identity.

hilarious, lol

Wesley.

Shut up, Wesley.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Minnesota B-

Could you please post the write up Pronman had for the Wild?

Really debating whether or not to spring and just get the insider access thing.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Wesley.

Shut up, Wesley.

I hated his Character in Star Trek:TNG

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

Lucic goes after your crotch while Dustin Brown goes for your knees. Same time.

Lucic will fit right in.

My Kings friends will be like 'I like how hard he plays'

I hate Big Bang Theory but I did get a crack out of the bowling team "The Wesley Crushers"

Doesn't seem so bad to me, except the locker room comment. Just reads to me like he hates the trade because Lucic sucks now, which isn't a bad reason to hate a trade.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

The Kings suck too, so Lucic sucking is a perfect match

I have a Kings friend who went on a tirade about Lucic last year calling him a POS and all of that, and now of course this year he's taunting me about landing him.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

That Lucic photoshop. I feel seething hatred and loathing rise up.

Or it's gas. I dunno.

Guys I am going to pet a Stingray today.

Watch yourself mate.

The Ducks getting a C+ is fair. No front page level positive moves, but no mind boggling fleecings either. We're more set up to make those big moves over the summer if The Murray deems it necessary.

I was expecting us to nab one of them there Good Canadian Boys that fell in the rankings.

The joke here is I was anticipating that I knew who BM would draft. I'm like 1/100 so far.

Totally. And a few Finns as well. Our 2nd round pick is from Vatmans city!

[Samyy]

Huh apparently Nylander and Timashov (5th rounder this year) are actually good friends, and Lindgren played with him for a few games in the SHL.

Now the Leafs just have to draft Alex Nylander next year and the Leafs will hereby by referred to as Nylander and friends!

Giordano is a good ol Tronna boy who still comes back here in the summers to play baseball.

Plus, I still hate the shity of Crapmondump after growing up in that racist redneck tire fire and the Flames are their rivals so there is that.

And I laughed my ass off when the Flames eliminated the Canucks. And I laughed my ass off when Torts had a song made about the way Hartley plays his lines.

Plus they fleeced the shit outta Boston.

Edit: and we got Phaneuf for spare parts and we also got Gilmour off of them too.

Therefore, Calgary is ok in my books.

Calgary is a team to watch for. They are alright in my books.

 

[Calamari41]

Calgary is only three hours away from Glacier National Park, and they have the best damn cable reception this side of the Mississip.

Calgary is alright in my book.

Bennett, Monahan, Gudreau, Hamilton....so jealous of the Flames.

Marner, Nylander, Brown, Dermott, Reilly looks pretty good though.
