Hockey rules. The NHL presents a video on the New Standard of Rule Enforcement for the 2005-06 season.

Yep, these rules are going to make the game even faster and more exciting, with many 2-man down power plays. It should have my heart pumping thoughout the game with all the scoring opportunities. I don't think the players that have been around for a long time will grasp these rules because they, according to the league, they've been getting away with murder. And, yes, Pronger will suck with about 500 PIM because he's so thick that he will cross-check on every play and be called for it. So he's even (if it's possible) more worthless than ever.

Gonchar goes to the Pens Oilers acquire Pronger. Amonte to the Flames. Foote in Columbus. After a slow start, the free agent market heats up for, seemingly, everyone but the Leafs. As usual, there are many (improbable) rumours but little truth - Naslund is staying put.

Yes!!! The Blues are finally rid of Pronger. We can now have a Stanley Cup season while watching the Oliers not win a game. This news brightened up my entire day.

A few words from a class act Darren McCarty says his Detroit goodbyes in public through the Free Press after the Red Wings bought out his contract. Too bad everyone can't be this gracious.

It's nice to see a player who's not bitter over being moved out of a team after such a long time with it. It's extremely refreshing.

To buy out or not buy out The St. Louis Blues and Ottawa Senators say they aren't going the buy out route in the NHL's new fiscal landscape. The Red Wings have already said goodbye to Ray Whitney, Derian Hatcher and Darren McCarty. What's the right way to go about this, who needs to get the axe and who are you hoping your team lands?

Who ever wants Pronger, take him and build your team around him. See where it gets you. Nowhere. Maybe then the Blues will have a winning season. We need to keep Doug and Keith because they are the best two players on the team and we wouldn't be anywhere without them.
