Lu is a part of the team like anybody else is, give credit where it's due.

Alex Tanguay won't be going anywhere. TSN.ca is reporting that Sutter won't ask him to waive his NTC. Also, Peter Forsberg is coming back to the NHL after all, as he's signed a 1 year contract with the Colorado Avalanche.

Great news! :D

Huet hasn't been playing well, but it is a bit early to have traded him I think.

[mikebiacsi]

Lol Huet for a 2nd round pick??? bad move by the habs, and they just lost Hossa to the pens. :laugh:

[rajputwarrior]

i hate gainey...

[mikebiacsi]

The avs are gonna party like its 2001 now, forsberg and foote have been added now.

[Matrix XII]

I think Dallas has a great chance after making some key deals.

Richards has such a huge contract though :blink:

[bayrider]

If they can afford it, it's not so bad. Richards is a great player especially come playoffs

[Matrix XII]

I can't believe the Habs have so much faith in Price. I mean, he is good, but he's so young. This playoff run could give him tons of confidence though.

[rajputwarrior]

price always come through under pressure though, but this is a whole different kind of pressure...

[rajputwarrior]

FINALLY passed ottawa!

[Boffa Jones Veteran]

First in the east! First time since 93... and we all know what happened last time.

For those who didn't know NHL Center ice went on sale in the US and Canada yesterday. Its currently priced at 59.99 USD and 49.99 CAD. You get the rest of the regular season(10 games or so) and the play off push to the stanley cup which will appear on NBC(I think). I've already have watched my money's worth in a days time...

GO GET EM!

that anaheim vs montreal game was so poorly reffed...

that anaheim vs montreal game was so poorly reffed...

thats been the story for many games this year, not including hockey. Take a look at some of the bad decisions made in the world of US football this past season. Don't even get me started on College Football.

The back and fourth of the top of the east is definitely getting pretty intense I wonder who will manage it at the end. Hopefully the Habs of course, but at this point it is way to close to tell.

[Napalm Frog]

My hope right now is that Vancouver can keep their playoff spot. If they lose it, I will be very ticked off. Though, to be honest, I wouldn't mind it if the Leafs make it into the playoffs... Just so I can laugh at all of my friends here when they are taken out in 4 straight.

[mikebiacsi]

I really hope the caps make it into the playoff's, it'll be hard, but they are only 3 points off the 8th place team. Im also hoping the avs can keep their good play going, it's would be good if they could take the northwest and grab home ice.

[rajputwarrior]

ottawa = kryptonite

only way the habs i think will get out of the east is if someone else takes out ottawa

[mikebiacsi]

Anyone see Khabibulin's save on Semin last night? Wow.

The playoffs have 'unofficially' started for the northwest teams now, the avs' last 8 games are all against division rivals. It's do or die time now.

[Boffa Jones Veteran]

If Bostin wins and Montreal gets at least 1 point they clinch their division.

[rajputwarrior]

if the habs lose koivu long term we are fracked... so fracked
