all right. I respect you guys and your hockey knowledge. Just let it be said that I am skeptical until I see Dano start producing. If he does, I'll be the first to admit that you guys told me so, and I'll be happy to say it. Go Dano go.

there is no way that anyone can out-suck Toronto. I will laugh though if they end up picking 5th despite the deliberate tank. Just like I laughed at Buffalo last year.

Since I have seen little to make me think that Dano has any ceiling you are damning Crouse with faint praise here. I liked what I saw of Crouse at the World Juniors.

Take Staf out of the list above and you've got the right price. Drouin is damaged goods. Anyone interested in him has leverage and should use it.

Of course he could. And if I'm Yzerman, if Chevy gives that as an option, I phone Chipman first and make sure that Chevy isn't calling me from an insane asylum.

Eric Staal traded to the Rangers.

Enstrom and Burmi to Florida, throw in a minor-leaguer like Dano to get the deal done.

Air Force one is next I hope.

man so much Dano love. This guy is a minor-leaguer! Let's see him actually do something before we anoint him as some kind of skill player. I saw less out of him today than Burmi.

I am in the camp of seeing what Dano can actually do before I trade away one of the few remaining vets left on the team. Now if you were thinking of trading Enstrom...please proceed.

Lol. Dano, some guy playing in the minors who no one has heard of before yesterday, is suddenly ahead of Stafford? Am I on crazy pills here?

Spoken like someone who hasn't spent much time in Regina.

Time to pull this oldie but goodie out:

yeah that's not the kind of behavior you expect from a Swede. Expect next year to see Peluso (if he's still around) speed bag Strahlman the first time we play TB.

Better theme for this article then: "Even though we have an All-star Canadian running back, and Dressler, and hopefully a healthy QB running new offensive schemes created by a known commodity OC with a winning track record, we don't really think we'll go anywhere this year." Seriously, this is the type of article I would expect if Paul Friesen was suddenly named head of Media operations at the WFC.

I am waiting for the Towering Inferno. Titanic would be another one.

Homer voice: mmmmm...butt cheek...haaaa

isn't it a bit early to just anoint Harris as the starter before TC even starts? (/sarcasm)

Teach him to skate backwards and pair him with Myers. They could be the twin towers. Actually, they need to teach him how to skate both ways.

yeah well if I hadn't seen them floundering around the ice in Penticton I wouldn't know who they were either.

Sorry, I was mistaken. Fronk couldn't skate but he was only 6 foot 2. The really tall guy who couldn't skate was Axel Blomquist. I see they are both with Tulsa now.

hee hee, I know that's a fair comment, given my ignorance of Ville Pokka, but yes, of course I know who Kyle Connor is. If the Jets actually draft someone, especially first round, I take the time to have a look at them. Just as I also know who Jack Roslovic and Jansen Harkins are. I actually went to one of the Jets games here in Penticton at the "Young Stars" tournament in September, and was saddened to see how much they stunk, given they had Lemieux, Ehlers, Petan, Helle, and De Leo playing. They also had some guy named Fronk playing who was about 8 feet tall and could barely skate. It's too bad that the NCAA picks can't play in that tournament. It would have been nice to see Connor and some of the NCAA Yanks playing for the Jets in that game.

If they send Pavs down to the Moose (I know, they won't) would he clear waivers? I think he might.

imagine him playing with Marko Dano, Auston Mathews and Ville Pokka!
