    Every player and draft pick we have is up for the right trade... We shall see if he even stays on the team...

    I think the Hawks still have what it takes to make it to the finals.

    The wild are assembling a quite a team. I don't think they are there yet, but next year have quite a bit of cap space while keeping their core. They just keep plucking Tony's Sabres :)

    I would say in the west you have Anaheim, st.louis, Chicago, and then maybe Colorado, with st.louis and Chicago being interchangeable going to the western finals. The east is a little easier, think that Pittsburg will be there, then maybe Boston, Toronto if they stay hot, and I would have said Tampa bay but don't how losing st.louis is gonna hurt them.

    What's even crazier is I have been a hockey fan since I was a kid, only no
    One else in my family is a hockey fan, and I was born down south, in a state that doesn't have a hockey team....

    It's actually gaining in popularity. According to a harris poll taken in December asking adults to rank their favorite sports Hockey is only 1% behind the NBA and 2% behind auto racing. Of course football and baseball go 1 & 2.

    Big bad bruins!! I'm a Little disappointed in the lackluster trade deadline moves. Still strong this year though, can't wait to sweep Crosby in the playoffs again! Not sure if we got it to take the cup though, St. Louis is strong this year

    I have to say hockey is my favorite sport to watch in person. I still follow baseball more closely, mainly because I played it my whole life and I understand the strategy behind it all, but sit on the glass at an NHL game and it's a blast.

    When I was little I wanted to grow up to be Brett Hull, once my parents couldn't afford to put me in hockey I switched that to Ozzie Smith lol.

    Anytime STL plays the Wings the local sports talk radio considers it "Punch a Red Wing Fan in the Face Day"

    We hate the Wings for all the beatings we received.

    It is gonna be tough, they just can not finish a game. Can lead for 2 periods and then just fall apart in the 3rd. It has not been a good year of being a wings fan.
