This was just too ridiculous not to link to. Eklund 's rumors are sketchy at best but this just takes the cake. Does Eklund just close his eyes and pick 2 random teams and players?

Interesting, I thought Elias would take captaincy and then pass it off to Parise in the next couple of years. He has easily been the best player this year, has had the position before, and captained the Czech Olympic team.

I am also surprised Langenbrunner was asked to waive his NTC during training camp. Could Lou have seen his poor play coming and/or was there some hidden issue?

Scratch that, it was posted on the front page.

Islanders receive 2nd (compensation from not signing first round pick 20th overall Jason fisher), so I believe it is the 20th pick in the second round and 5th round picks from Montreal for the Defense-men.
A great deal for both parties involved. Montreal receives a solid defense men and the Islanders get a nice return on who the gave a third round pick to Ducks for during the off season.
This does put the Islanders under the salary floor. Pure speculation but they are nicely set up to pick Rolston off of reentry waivers.

The devils barely squeeze under the cap.This is a very temporary solution, but it does give Lou some time.

Looks like ZIP line caught on.

The person who wrote this has watched one or two hockey games in their life.

Well that helps them with their cap situation. Having 23 mill over the next 4 years sitting in the minors probably does not make management too happy but, the rangers are wealthy enough to afford such big blunders.

A few of the predictions are a little bold, but the ending looks good.

3 Devils on the top 10 list! You guys can guess who they are but I will give you a hint, there is a certain famous Russian, American, and Canadian.

Highlights Devils prospects. If you are waiting for 5 pm to hopefully see the Kovy deal be approved it is an interesting read in the meantime.
