    I grew up watching and admiring Guy, too. There was nothing like seeing him fly down the right-wing, long hair blowing back (yes, before helmets were mandatory). There was always something special about Guy - everyone knew it. Boy or boy could Guy skate and shoot! I need to go back and watch that goal he scored against Boston's Gilbert that turned the series around. 

     

    RIP, Guy

    I'm the Poster Kid for making bad decisions. A quick scan of the spreadsheet shows this jewel I'd like a re-do on:

     

    I sure could have used Leon D's production the last few years.

    I later traded Domi, and am waiting on Anthony B to bloom.

  9. Linesman Brad Kovachik retires after 1500 games

    I think it's easy to take the officials for granted, but they are what make our game great too. There was a short story in the Globe and Mail on NHL Linesman Brad Kovachik's career. 1500 games is no small feat and he's seen a lot during that time.

     

    Hopefully, you can access the article here: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/article-after-1500-games-veteran-nhl-linesman-brad-kovachik-has-seen-it-all/

  18. Rinne

    So he loses an important game 7 to the Jets (not good, I agree). But what if the Preds won that game? The discussion would be different (as would Rinne's value, ha).

     

    I'd play Rinne 50 or so games next year and Saros 30 or so games. See what you have with Saros. But Poile is not afraid to trade away top talent, so I expect him to be dealt.

     

     

  20. Playoff Players You Value: Who's on your list?

    I was listening to the Wings game last night on the radio. The Wings were on their way to losing to the Black Hawks. Paul Woods, former Wing and now radio broadcaster, was commenting on the value of Jonathan Toews. He recognized that Toews numbers are down and that he's getting paid a lot of money. But Woods stated, "If I was building a playoff team and got to pick a player, I'd be hard-pressed not to pick Toews." He then went on to list the players he'd pick if a gun was put to his head:

     

    Patrice Bergeron

    Sid Crosby

    Ryan Getzlaf

    Anze Kopitar

    Jonathan Toews

     

    Mr. Woods is showing some bias for older players and guys who are responsible at both ends of the ice. I'm OLD, so I understand his mindset.  :-) 

     

    Which 3 to 5 players would be on your list?
