• Comment on Canadiens sign two Swedish draft picks; Emelin has surgery
  I believe Geoffrion retired, so he probably shouldn't be on the list. I like Dumont, Tokarski and Blunden on that list(and obviously White). No one else on that list is particularly worth keeping. Weber has some value but not on this team, I feel.
• Comment on Silver for Diaz, bronze for Galchenyuk at world championship
  I always wondered, if the host team of the Memorial Cup is also one of the champions, which team is the 4th?
• Comment on Silver for Diaz, bronze for Galchenyuk at world championship
  If I'm Calgary I don't go there. They'd probably have to forfeit picks and prospects in return and they're bare enough as it is. Though I could see them doing it, too :)
• Comment on Silver for Diaz, bronze for Galchenyuk at world championship
  Okay, got a nice little scenario for you guys, here. The Minnesota Wild are badly up against the cap(They have a leeway of under 80,000$). They have some young d-men like Faulk and Spurgeon to potentially re-up and they're going to demand raises greater than 80,000 between the two. They're surely gonna need to use their compliance buyout to make some room. Their most expensive player, after Suter and Parise, and also their most likely to be bought out due to a bit of a drop in performance is Dany Heatley. Granted, he's not the 50 goal scorer he used to be, but if he hit free agency, would you sign him for 3.5 mill or less? He's still a mid-20 goal scorer at worst and he's 6'4"
• Comment on Habs' Therrien not among Jack Adams Award finalists
  I feel like he jumped the gun a little bit, kind of assuming he'd have a 60 point season again(or, whatever amount it is to make 60 over a full season). That or he was trying to get him going by showing he has confidence in him, but that would be pretty bad if it were the case

  I have to agree on that, myself. Never know, though, maybe DD can step it up this year? Hopefully.
