NHL Transactions, Injuries & Rumours

[The BBKL Insider]

Jml has Actually been fairly good...

yup

he hasn't been anything too special, but he's been consistant and safe...i'll take that over loose puck Ranger everyday of the week, or "i cant skate or carry the puck" fraser

ouch, Dupuis out for year.

[kimmer]

It's fine if it's Dupuis, ouch if it was Kunitz

[Tony]

he looks like a muppet anyway ...

Interesting move by the Bruins. Calling up goalie Svedberg with no injuries. Speculation that it is a showcase for a potential deal with St. Louis. Lots of extra d-men in Beantown. Something may happen soon. Rask is starting tonight but Svedberg is expected to start tomorrow against Ottawa.

[Tony]

Why would St.Louis be interested in a goalie?

[CAM]

I have no idea...just rumours floating around about a 3way with Edmonton, who needs a goalie. Who knows...

[Robin Hood]

Why would St.Louis be interested in a goalie?

Ryan miller has been linked to STL lot actually. Maybe trading halak back to buf in the deal

@SWhyno: Torn ACL/MCL. Huge blow to #Bruins to lose D-man. RT @AmalieBenjamin: Estimated recovery for Seidenberg is 6-8 months.

Talk of a NMC or a limited NTC

Ugh. I like dion, hate that term

Don't love the term..but i'ts reasonable in this market. 7 years will take Dion to age 35..which isn't bad at all. Lots of D maintain their productivity and value up towards their late 30's. eg. Boyle, Pronger, Niedermayer, Chara, Lidstrom

Not saying Phaneuf is similar to any of these players but I'm way more comfortable going long term to their mid 30's with a D then I am with a forward.

Dion will be 36 when this contract ends, doesn't start until he is 29.

I wouldn't be worried about term. it isn't like they have any other bad 7 year contracts on the books

Stupid clarkson.

With the cap rising I'm not worried about these long term deals

Anderson Silva's leg Jesus Christ

[Robin Hood]

Anderson Silva's leg Jesus Christ

That was horrifying..Really a shame. I had huge hopes for that fight. To end like that sucks. Also, Anderson may never fight again after that. That's at least a 10-12 month recovery time injury to get to normal, let alone get into a position to train.
