No more talking about the lockout. No more mentioning Gary and Bob, or Ted and Bill, or any lawyers, lets just talk about how great the season is going to be.
Jeff Friesen can't be too thrilled about where he's going. Am I the only one who thought Washington was the last place Friesen would go? Don't look now, but Washington looks dangerous, and don't think for a second that thats a joke. Ovechkin, Witt (still...), Kolzig, Zubrus, Friesen...they could do good, they won't, but they could, especially with their division probably the weakest in hockey. Jersey is now under the cap for now, but when Elias comes back they may need to make another move depending on how long he is out.
JR head is hurtin again! Philly got rid of him just in time, though he is not expected to miss a significant amount of time. The King's have had the worst of luck over the last three seasons, and so far it doesn't look like thats going to change for awhile.
Datsyuk officially resigned with Detroit, which we reported a solid week ago. Someone asked me by email today if the Jersey/Washington trade is the only trade we will see before Oct.5...it won't be, don't worry. Speaking of email, i have my email fixed on this computer so I will be able to reply faster.
