And then I'm going home.
David Franke on the GM/Coaches meetings: ``We just talked about officiating and about rule changes. I think
there's a good chance we're going to put the trapezoid in behind the nets for
the goalies similar to the NHL. There's also talk of possibly resurfacing the center of
the ice before a shootout. Dry shave it. I think it will pass. Other stuff was just housekeeping,
injured reserve and Immigration. Immigration is something different. Our players will no
longer get H2B they'll get P1 which is what NHL players are under. That's there
is no limit on.''
The immigration news is huge if not sexy. That will give teams much more flexibility with players throughout the season.

Huge and Sexy. Two words I never wanted Blake to use together. Thanks for the update!
Not only that....but he said "flexibility"....Wow, such shocking language! LOL!
This board is degenerating quickly LOL LOL!
Hey, Tony, don't call my reader degenerates!
.....sulks and hides in the corner
wow, as a first-timer this is quite an interesting place to start. Oh, the vulgarity! How will my womanly ears adjust?!
Immigration...you mean our government pays attention to that? Why couldn't we just sneak them over the border like the rest of the immigrants in this country. What is the big deal? We used to have an all Russian line, what about an all Mexican line? Rodriquez, Gonzales, Vasquez ....GGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh sorry, that would be soccer. Sounded like a good plan at first.
Sexy? Immigration news sexy? They're not talking mail order brides, Blake. They're talking 6'2", 210 lb. sweating hockey players. You need a vacation, my friend.
Works for me! Well maybe not the sweaty part...
There is an article in the Saratogian about the Frostbite--no real news, other than it looks like they are on their way out without another owner stepping in. What happens to those players if they fold, is there another draft? An afterdraft? I'm clueless.
I would bet at this piont they would just make all those players free agents.
I'm fascinated--can't wait to see how this all works out.
Still rooting for Carolina Greg?
I did pick Edmonton in 6 for the finals but I may have to adjust that now with Roloson out of the line up.
