Hope for the Thrashers like I hope for my Ducks. Anaheim has to have the weakest remaining schedule in the league. They basically have to run the table, but they are playing some really bad teams. They should get 9-10 points in the next 5 games. I just need to them to make the playoffs, Giguere is playing well again and the team itself is stepping up. To bad it is with like 17 games left in the season. I will still watch the playoffs, but wont be as enthused. Plus I want to see the Kings get sweeped in the first round. As much as I hate them, I do give them credit for the job they are doing. It is amazing they still win with no goalie and no offense or defense. They prove heart goes a long way in hockey.

Gonchar sweepstakes.

Boston is rumoured to be offering Samsonov and Jillson + a pick

Toronto's package may now include Darcy Tucker + youth + a pick

Colorado's monster deal involing Olie the Goalie is likely not going to happen considering that Gonchar sat to prevent an injury while Kolzig played last night.

BOSTON (CP) - The Boston Bruins have won the Sergei Gonchar sweepstakes.

A source told The Canadian Press on Wednesday that the Washington Capitals have sent the star defenceman to Beantown in exchange for 21-year-old defenceman Shaone Morrisonn as well as a first- and second-round draft pick.

No one's going to trade for half of the great, but overpaid players they have. The next (and maybe only) player I can see going is Messier. The Red Wings had their eyes on him, in case you were wondering.

yeah, i heard that. i heard they also have interest in eric lindros, though i hope not to either of them. :x

we do need a center or two though. datsyuk and dandenault both went to the hospital last night. dandenault has a broken foot and i don't know what's wrong with datsyuk yet. draper going down too was another blow. :(

      On xiaomi hyperos there's also an option to disable google assistant. I've got everything disabled. Only thing I do have installed is a web wrapped for duck.ai which claims to let you use various AIs anonymously
    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      I need to understand the rationale of not shipping all of these K2 improvements in a single update/release. It's giving "we will fix Windows 11 but no commitments". It seems to me that they just announce these improvements just to appease the community.

      The term "RTM" is long gone starting with Windows 10. Every current release is a GA build. This is the result of MS making Windows as a Service (WaaS).
