Not that I've heard. Maybe Atlanta can get Lecavalier :D

I'm sure you all think I'm crazy, but it is just wrong that Pitt. can have such a good team going in to the start of the season. Plus, the Thrashers have lost their Captain AGAIN, for those of you not follwing my team, we have had a different Captain every year.

The Leafs are going to have an overaged goalie, Sundin, Jeff O'Neil and a bunch of AHLers.

Atlanta doesn't have enough solid veterans to have a true captain, if you ask me. Almost all their veterans are either mediocre or aging fast. They just need to pick a young captain for once.

Also theres a lot of talk here in Mtl of Lecavalier comming in through trade and/or Kariya being signed

Jeremy Roenick + draft pick to LA for future considerations to Philly

Malakhov, McGillis and Rafalski sign with NJ Devils

Wow, Philly was really desperate to make some cap room, eh? AND a draft pick?

Give the Leafs some time. It seems like a lot of teams are waiting to see what good deals they can make after some of these teams are done giving away silly amounts of money. Leafs will have to do a little restructuring, though.

I would dump everybody for Forsberg! :o

Even though Dallas got Modano kinda cheap.. I still wanted him to move on, after his last season, he is just not as good as people think he is. He can come up will some spectacular plays once in a blue moon, but simply doesn't have enough production and gets hurt easy. He seems to try some crazy move all the time and gets smoked by someone, and then takes forever to get back in the lineup. Now the Stars are locked in for 5 years :(

Detroit signs Chelios and Frazen (a draft pick from last year... their scouts are really high on him -- he's getting the rookie max and is actually going to play 3rd or 4th line center).

Holland is trying to get Zatta, Dats and Williams back, but he said it's hard. He expects all to be signed, but there's no deadline. Holland wants Williams to be a regular player now, too.

Holland is trying to add some size and a new goalie. Osgood is extremely likely to come back, but Holland said he's got 3 or 4 guys he's talking to (no big-name free agents... he said he's not doing that).

Chelios will be a 3rd team defensive pair, playing around 16 to 18 min per game (good choice, IMO). He signed for under a million... Chelios = class act.

Also: Detroit is negotiating with with Per Ledin, a Sweedish player, who was one of the best offensive players in his league. He's supposed to be an amazing offensive talent, but not too hot on defense.

    • What browser do you prefer to use, and why?

      By +Edouard · Posted

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
