Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

Grats on 10-6! Looking good.

Hows the GM feel about his roster? anyone on the trade block? any line up shifts in the works?

Happy thanksgiving to you as well!

[HeroWorship]

Silly goose, Thanksgiving isn't until November..

Oh, wait, you're Canadian?

The U.S. should just get over it and make Puerto Rico and Canada the 51st and 52nd state, so we can move Thanksgiving in your land to the proper date in November.

Nice job getting beaten to a bloody pulp by Florida, but responding to win against Vancouver and Nashville. At first, I was shocked to see a 4-1 win against the Predators, but one look at the goaltending, and it explained everything.

Nice Franchise you have going here, I am just curious to know beacuse I am also in the Process of moving Komisarek,, have you gotten any nibbles for komi yet? or offered a trade involving him.

Thanks BLB.

To be honest I like my roster, even after losing 2 of my players too injury I still love it. Now currently Komi and Finger are on the block and I'm looking for either draft picks or prospects with atleast B potential - towards the trade deadline I'm most likely going to put Giguere on the block but we will see.

I have decided to drop Kulemin to the 2nd line and bring up Versteeg - trying to create 2 scoring lines instead of just one, hopefully this works. I also think that after the Devils game I'm going to drop Rosehill back to the Marlies and keep Orr my tough guy, Marlies are getting pushed around to much and hopefully this helps.

Versteeg-Bozak-Kessel
McArthur-Grabovski-Kulemin
Sjostrom-Hanson-Armstrong
Rosehill-Mitchell-Brown

Schenn-Phaneuf
Gunnarsson-Kaberle
Komisarerk-X
X= Jones or Lashoff

HAHAHA funny man. But see with most of your troops in Afgan and Iraq our few Native Indians and couple boy scouts with swis army knives could invade your country and make the US the newest territory. haha

Yeah I was pretty bummed getting hammered like that but the Canuck and Preds game gave me hope.

Thanks Drovchas.

Unfortunately no bites yet, I might have to go shopping myself - I really like a D-man prospect on the Rangers, wish me luck.
