axis Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 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.

Fred Derf Veteran Posted March 3, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 3, 2004 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.

Ayepecks Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 they still have a lot left to clear. ;) the firesale has only just begun. :) 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.

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. :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/120925-neowins-nhl-discussion-thread/page/19/#findComment-1793853 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kainashi Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 The flames are giving turke a nudge.... Burn don't know anyone will pick him up with that kind of contract. they might be able to trade him, if they pick up a bit of his salary. could be a good backup for aebischer.
