As we note, he holds all the cards here.<BR/>2)As for Jagr. Not sure if its sather who would want JJ back, or the garden brass who always crave star-power. Will be interesting to see what transpires. It may all hindge on how JJ and his team fares this season. If they miss the playoffs, it'll be a much easier sell to rid themselves of JagrFAUX RUMORShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00403913043629362701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-83313793912174797562008-01-23T10:00:00.000-08:002008-01-23T10:00:00.000-08:00Haven't the Miami Heat lost about 12 in a row?

I think the best moves here are with regard to Sundin and Jagr... Mats NEEDS to get the heck out of that situation... I realize what he has meant to that organization and city, but the time has come - he wants desparately to win a Cup, and while he still has lots left in the tank, now is the time to move on...<BR/><BR/>Jagr SHOULD go, but I do not feel the egotistical GM will admit to total failure in Jagr's acquistion, and give up on his pouting superstar... This isn't JJ's team and never really has been... How the Rag$ could even contemplate re-signing him would be beyond me... For an 80 point, aging and pouting player, just what would you pay? Bottom line, the experiment has not worked, just as it had failed miserably in DC...Antzmarchinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14831888545205166172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-17231026503860389012008-01-23T07:45:00.000-08:002008-01-23T07:45:00.000-08:001) Thanks Dark: We had read those numbers as well,...1) Thanks Dark: We had read those numbers as well, but are not certain if thats been confirmed/official.<BR/>2) Yes, issues within the locker room are not new there.

Cliff Fletcher was hired as a temporary replacement. Probably the remainder of the season/post season. If anyone thinks this is a turning point for the Leafs we have a nice bridge in a NYC borough for sale!<BR/>2)Stevens: Well, like/believe it or not we have sources in many organizations and know several player agents personally. Anyway your opinions on Sundin and Tanguay are valid. As far as Tanguay is concerned what we hear is not what you believe. As they say, 'we'll see'<BR/>3) Pilot: Its very likely that the Kings will be the most active team this February. They have a few players that will be coveted(discussed in the post) The return should be helpful for the Kings to be a pretty good team IF they make the right moves. How about a goalie Dean?<BR/>4) Shmee:Thanks! We agree that unless he shows he's able to withstand the rigors of league play the addition of a Forsberg into a lineup can disrupt team chemistry for an unknown possible return. Regardless of what they pay him. We would take a pass on FOPA<BR/>5) Vlad: Yes, as expected the Coyotes extended Ilya for 3 years we believe. Good for them! As for your MVP argument it has some very valid points. We had been discussing possibly doing a post to discuss what a real MVP/Hart winner should be.FAUX RUMORShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00403913043629362701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-58364746874287607792008-01-22T11:17:00.000-08:002008-01-22T11:17:00.000-08:00Did you hear that Phoenix resigned Bryzgolov to an...Did you hear that Phoenix resigned Bryzgolov to an extension? Nice job by the Coyotes. He's been their MVP. <BR/>Speaking of MVP's. When you think of it how can the league MVP not be a goalie every year? I mean, its the most inportant position, and the best goalie helps his team the Most. Hence he's the MVP, right?VLAD THE IMPALERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13364902582872816443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-56385176589006318402008-01-22T11:10:00.000-08:002008-01-22T11:10:00.000-08:00Good breakdown.

I do agree with your analysis that Sundin would be a good fit in vancouver. I don't think the Flames have to trade Tanguay to make room for Phaneuf. They may trade him but only if it helps us not to get cap space relief.<BR/>I think the Kings will be the only team that is a big seller next month. They may be a pretty good team next season if they find themselves a goalie like Phoenix didstevens8204https://www.blogger.com/profile/18279395218320624701noreply@blogger.com
