La troisième partie d’une série de quatre des joueurs qui ont possiblement joué leur dernier match pour leurs équipes respectives et ce qu’un déménagement pourrait signifier d’un point de vue de pooler.
If you're a father, and you are reading this on Mother's Day - I admire your dedication! Both Alex Goligoski and Philippe Boucher got into the lineup in place of Gonchar, while Dupuis was a healthy scratch to make room. Goli played 9:32 and 3:14 on the PP. Boucher played 13:03 Satan has points in each of [...]

Part 3 in a four-part look at those players who may have played their last game for their respective team and what a move will mean from a fantasy hockey standpoint.
(Michael St. Croix, the potential top pick in 2011)
Just as it's folly to try to hype a Bantam scoring star as the next Sidney Crosby or Wayne Gretzky, it's simply far too early to damn an entire class of players- half of whom won't even be on anyone's radar until next year. However, an article in the THN Draft Preview did just that. That said, the prairies are still producing some of the top talent in the country - and 2011 will be no different.
The Pens have recalled Alex Goligoski from the AHL. Gee - what does that mean? So how many of you are calling the person who ran your playoff pool draft and saying "Hey, I just noticed a mistake. When I called out 'Jokinen' at the draft, you must have thought I meant 'Olli'. No no, [...]
Justin Goldman tells me that Patrick Roy is in a meeting at the Pepsi Center with Avs brass. GM? Kevin Bieksa went into the boards awkwardly during OT last night. He favored his left leg limping to the dressing room and speculation is that he is done for the series. This could be the start of [...]
The subject of supplementary discipline and just what constitutes a penalty in the playoffs are hot topics right now. Before I get started here, I have to say that I have the utmost respect for the NHL and the great job the officiating crews do consistently applying the rules game in and game out (no really, I HAVE to say that or Gary Bettman will fine me $20). I truly believe the NHL’s Commissar of Crime, Colin Campbell is in a no win situation and is trying his best to be consistent and fair.
The Sens have signed top d-man prospect Erik Karlsson to an entry-level deal. There is little doubt that he is NHL ready and he is precisely the puck-moving rearguard that they need. To start, I can see a 40-point season right off the hop. Karlsson is ranked 87th on my Prospects List. Thanks to letnry [...]
Undrafted Swedish goaltender Jonas "The Monster" Gustavsson intends to play in the NHL next season. The 24-year-old was the top goaltender in the SEL and reportedly has several suitors, including Toronto. He has the potential to be the next Niklas Backstrom so stay tuned. Info on the Fantasy Prospects Report, as advertised on page 34 [...]
Sami Salo will not play in Game 3 through due to a lower body injury. Ossi Vaananen will take his spot. Pavol Demitra is questionable (and I actually think doubtful) for Game 3. Taylor Pyatt was back in practice and will probably take Demitra's spot in the lineup. Brian Rafalski and Kris Draper are out for tonight. Markus [...]
