Well the Sharks as usual arent going to do anything major.
Apparently cooler heads prevailed and they have decided not to make any major moves as of yet.

Heard an interview with the GM where he stated free agency is a bad area to get involved in. Stated trades are where they make their moves citing the Jumbo trade and some others. Sounds like some players could still be moved, but more like this season will be another tweak it and see what happens.

Looks like I will be selling my first round playoff seats again. :(

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

With players like Thorton, Marleau, Pavelski, Clowe, Setoguchi, Blake, Boyle, and Nabokov, you can never count them out...they just need to stay healthy and play to their potential, and they should be right in the mix.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

I have no doubt they will make the playoffs.
They just seem to lack the heart in the playoffs and now seem to have it in their head they cant go deep. In the end they may have to blow it up just to change the mindset of the team.
Shame cause I really like most of the players you listed. quality guys, good clean players.

You make the playoffs for the first time since 2002 and you're gonna bust MY balls? :r

We will see my friend, we will see. :D

Nope, I am busting your stones for that goofy website you made me look at. :r

Hey Tom, you think you can pull a few MOD strings and get a countdown clock added here?

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

Not sure how it would work in the thread, and I know it would be a no-go for the main page....cripes, everyone would want a countdown clock for something....They wouldn't realize that nothing is more important than hockey!! :D

Old news now...

But I found Aaron Ward coming to Carolina (joining Scott Walker) to be an interesting move.

Ward's toughness will be a real plus - hope it works out well.

I really appreciated Ward's take on the whole thing. They will be fine... but it did feel a little strange at first.

Oh! we have a funny guy.

Actually, if you think about it the Isles can't get much worse. Here is to rebuilding. After all we have been doing it for 15 years. Kind of reminds me of the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

I wish them luck against all but the mighty Blackhawks. ;)

Re: NHL '09 - '10 Thread
 

I don't know about the others but being a Bruins Fan (yes I am a Sucker) and Seeing Joe Thorton, he will never play to his potential.

I used to love that little drunk bastage.
He was smaller than me and made the show. He could play no doubt about it and had a fire in his gut. Would love to see him skate one more time if for nothing else just a feel good story.

Hell maybe the sharks will do it. They seem like the team for this. :)
