2009-10 NHL Thread

Not too shocking...

Wayne Gretzky just resigned in Phoenix.

 

Two minutes in the box for instigating for you.

Well played, though. At least you didn't refer to longtime minor league coach John Brophy.

 

I approve of Slap-Shot-based threadjacks, but you knew that already.

TSN now reporting The Great One's resignation. Might this deserve its own (OWN! OWNNNN!) thread?

Ulf Samuelsson as interim coach? It's hard for me to separate his playing from anything else, but the Coyotes might be the most-penalized team in the league if he stays on.

Good News!

 

well, I guess the Coyotes will learn how to turtle.

 

Guy who is buying the Nets is one of KHL's big money man (CSKA).

 

For you Brampton fans, Cody Hodgson is really struggling at Canucks training camp. Looks very slow, you may get to see him for another year.

He's just back from a back injury, isn't he?

 

Injury?

 

yes he is, which puts him well behind the other players. I think they will keep him to start but he does not look ready to play in the NHL at this point. I have no doubt this kid will be a very good pro but it just might have to wait a year.

 

That's a great hire for Phoenix. Hamilton. Kansas City. Des Moines.
