Alex Burrows is playing tonight. No word on Daniel Sedin yet. For those of you with center ice, you won't want to miss tonight's game between Colorado and Calgary. The Flames trail the Avalanche by only two points for the final spot in the West. Someone gives you $100 bucks to bet [...]
For all of you who forgot what day it is today, Happy April Fools! I hate this day. You just can't trust anything you read or hear about and you are screwed if you wake up and don't recall right away what day it is.
While we are on the subject of deception, how about those Ottawa Senators? Talk about a split personality, they have got to be the streakiest team in the league. It all started very early in January, when they lost five games in a row and then followed that by winning 11 in a row and 14 of 16 games heading into the Olympic break. Ottawa stumbled after returning from the time off, going 1-7-1 and now they have won five straight games. Bizarre.

After trading for Chris Pronger last summer, the Flyers were forced to go digging in the bargain bin for a starting goaltender, as Pronger’s salary pushed them very close to the cap. They signed Ray Emery, hoping that a year in exile playing in the KHL would make him a better goalie on the ice and a more stable person off of it. Emery started the 2009-10 season very well, winning 10 of his first 14 starts. However, his level of play dipped in December and January, and his season (and potentially career) was abruptly ended early in February when he suffered a severe hip injury.
