Penalty Problems

Those two words sum up Edmonton's night. They couldn't stay out of the box, they really didn't show any effort in this game. They play two more games like this, and they're done. They're not out yet, but the fat lady is getting her voice warmed up. Wasn't Jussi's fault, it was Edmonton's discipline.

If you haven't already heard, the New York Islanders have finally found two guys willing to take over the disaster known as a hockey franchise. Milbury has dug this team a deep hole, and now Mr. Wang hopes that Neil Smith and Ted Nolan will be the two guys to get them out of it. Nolan deserves the shot and this will be a good situation for him. Neil Smith, however, I don't think is a good fit. That being said, nobody else wanted this job, and Smith needs work. Maybe it is a good fit...

So with another coaching spot filled, Pat Quinn is still looking for work. All signs point to Boston at this point, with Vancouver still a very outside possibility.

If anyone has any ideas for a catchy slogan for hockeyleaks, let me know. We're looking for something, and apparently "Your Home For All Things Hockey", sucks. I liked it, but two certain individuals who may soon be fired if they don't stop complaining (and they know who there are :P), tell me it has to be changed. I don't usually listen to them, but I thought I'd throw it out there, and ask your guys opinions. Cjohnson202@hockeyleaks.com
