If you plan to get your news online (as opposed to TV, the newspaper or radio) but you get your news from one of the above sources then click that source.

i.e. If you get your updates from the ESPN website (as opposed to watching the ESPN TV channel) then click ESPN. It's good for both.

You can also justify your decision here.

I personally plan to flip from SportsNet to TSN to see who has the better people but my preference will probably be SportsNET.

The Colorado Avalanche have traded defenceman Derek Morris to the Phoenix Coyotes in return for centre Chris Gratton and defenceman Ossi Vaananen

This doesn't make much sense for Phoenix unless they think they can reflip Derek Morris by 3pm.

and the isles

pick up Steve Webb from Pittsburgh!.. I sure missed that guy. :D

STEVE WEBB!!! :D

It's purely a depth aquisition. He's got no points in limited action in the NHL this season. He was effective against the Leafs during their last playoff tilt. Then again, it doesn't take much to get Darcy Tucker off his game.

The Colorado Avalanche acquired goaltender Tommy Salo and a sixth-round draft pick in 2004 from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for defenseman Tom Gilbert.

Did Colorado fail to land Olie The Goalie or is this the move they wanted to make? Olaf Kolzig would have made the starting goalie situation confusing while Salo (in spite of his past performance and playoff experience) is clearly a backup aquisition.

How come the NHL trade deadline is 70+ games into the season? Another reason why the regular NHL season is the absolute worst when it comes to fan involvement and excitement.

Now that Marco Sturm is out for the season...blaaahh. Does anyone know if the Sharks have any moves on the table?

90% of the teams have played less than 70 games but I get your point. Each team only has 11-15 games left. The trade deadline allows a team to bulk up for the playoffs or plan for next year. If you follow a team that is having a poor season then at least this allows you to only suffer the last dozen games in absolute misery. For teams that are doing well and plan to go deep into the playoffs, well then with 7 games series and up to four playoff levels to go, there is lots of hockey left. After all the last puck drops in June.

The most exciting thing happening in San Jose so far was Jason Marshall a few days ago. If you can call it that. Sharks are leading their division at the moment so I'd expect them aquire somebody to fill Sturm's skates..

Leafs sign Calle Johansson (D) out of retirement.

Now there's talk that Toronto may have to send a scout to Washington as compensation (Calle Johansson had been scouting for the Caps).

Toronto also signed Chad Kilger off waivers. Be's a big centreman that plays soft. It's a depth acquisition and he isn't expected to get much ice time.

I see Ron Francis ? signing with Toronto for about a 6th round pick going back to Carolina. He reportedly has waived his no trade clause.

The deal is confirmed. I don't know what is going back to Carolina yet.

Ron Francis was dealt for a 4th round pick in 2005.

TSN is reporting Curtis Brown to the Sharks for Jeff Jilson.

SportsNET says it's a 3 way deal that also involves Brad Boyes

Boston gets: F Brad Boyes

San Jose gets: C Curtis Brown

Buffalo gets: D Jeff Jillson

Curtis Brown is the replacement for Marco Sturm.

Colorado is going to be a powerhouse in the playoffs. Hopefully Forsberg is back and Salo/Aebischer can provide good goaltending

Good riddance to Chad Kilger... what a waste of space he was for Montreal

Except that it's Aebischer/Salo not the other way around.

I don't expect to see Chad Kilger to get much ice time at all. We have so many fragile veterans than we might need some warm bodies after a long run.

we'll see, Aebischer has minimal playoff experience, but as seen before in goalies like Theodore, Giguere and Fernandez they can come up big in these situations but either way, Juggling between Salo and Aebishcer isnt as bad as Aebischer/Sauve

If they wanted to bring in a a replacement for Aebischer then they would have traded for Kolzig. Acquiring Salo says to me that we have confidence in Aebischer and we intend to go with him as our #1. Salo is simply a replacement for Sauve.

Salo was about to lose his #1 status in Edmonton anyway now that Ty Conklin has pronounced himself healthy again.

    • Good, because the nonstop chattering from the voices in her head made me quit the second game.
    • This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case by Sayan Sen At Computex 2026 earlier this month, AMD announced a couple of new X3D processors for both sockets AM4 and AM5 as it confirmed the support extension of the latter till 2029. And although Intel didn't unveil any new desktop chips, the company's Core Ultra 200S Plus series is relatively new too. Let's say though that you want the best of both worlds simultaneously, and instead of running two different systems, you can have both running together side-by-side, or rather on top of one another. That's exactly what Thermaltake's CAPO X dual system is made for doing. While it's not exactly mandatory to run AMD with Intel, or vice versa, you get the idea. As you can see in the render above, it is essentially like a double-decker PC case that is capable of holding two microATX (mATX) motherboards. Even running just one discrete graphics card in a PC can get toasty, so you may be wondering how well the cooling is designed on the CAPO X, Thermaltake has confirmed, as is evident from the marketing promo image above, that the case supports up to two 360 mm AIO liquid coolers. 420mm is not supported. In total there is room for 13 120mm case fans. In terms of I/O (input/output) options for the two systems, there are naturally two places for those ports, one at the top and one at the very bottom of the chassis in the front panel. In terms of use cases, there are many possibilities. Thermaltake itself, for example, highlights how one system can be your main PC while the other could be the AI agent PC. Another example given is how it can be used to stream and game simultaneously with dedicated systems instead of hogging one with the entire load. Nothing regarding pricing or availability was said.

    • There might be some passive design improvements (cooling, etc), but I doubt they'd change the core performance spec of the hardware mid-generation when they've already got a new console in development.
    • State of Decay 3 is out in 2027, reveals Plague Nests with new co-op gameplay trailer by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A few months ago, Undead Labs broke its silence about the third entry in the State of Decay series since its announcement in 2020. Today, the studio had a brand-new trailer to reveal at the Xbox Games Showcase, finally giving players a look at the Unreal Engine 5-powered title. A broad 2027 release window is now attached to State of Decay 3 too. The studio confirmed that every scene seen in the gameplay trailer (except for the studio logo) released today is from the game with no cinematic footage. "The quality bar of the moment-to-moment experience is higher than anything we’ve achieved in Undead Labs’ history," says the studio. "State of Decay 3 is being built in Unreal Engine 5, and we’re creating better quality versions of what makes our game the survival sandbox it is, and the combat experience is really, really important to us, and I think you can see it coming through in this trailer." One new aspect of this upcoming entry is the Plague Nests. These are supposed to be dynamic, dungeon‑like enemy hubs with varied “personas” that change tactics each time one appears on a map. These areas will have the best loot in the game for players brave enough to tackle them. The combat system is being overhauled too, letting players do quick and power attacks depending on the situation. This isn't just on the player's side though, as zombies themselves now have multiple new types of behaviors depending on how fresh or decayed they are. "All of these play very differently, especially as you start getting outnumbered or when you’re making noise and running around and trying to save your rear end or the rear end of your friend next to you," adds the developer. Of course, settlement building and community management are massive parts of this third entry too. These are being further expanded with the cooperative focus, giving players much more freedom for playing together than in State of Decay 2. Players will even be able to split up and build settlements in different areas of the same map with different goals. Undead Labs confirmed that playtests are already ongoing for the title, and interested players can sign up to participate by heading over here once more slots open up ahead of the full release. State of Decay 3 is coming out on PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Game Pass sometime in 2027.
