Despite the fact that Simon Gagne has been traveling with the team, there is zero chance that he will suit up for them, even if they were to go to the Final. The Leafs signed future power forward Dale Mitchell to an entry level contract. Mitchell was their first pick last summer. He has 65-point [...]

Part one in a seven-part review takes a look at the teams that failed to reach the postseason and what kind of impact each of them will have on your keeper-league squad. This week, we take a look at Atlanta and Buffalo.
Max Talbot is trying to get back into the lineup despite having a broken foot. He has been skating on his own and is a long shot to get into the lineup today, possibly at the expense of Gary Roberts. The Rangers scratched Christian Backman last contest and will likely keep him in the press box [...]
The major junior ranks are wayyyy ahead, with the CHL's leagues already playing their respective finals in preparation for the Memorial Cup. We start out west in the Dub, where two #3 seeds have gone all the way to the Ed Chynoweth Cup.

Do all fairy tales have happy endings? Can playoff dark horses turn into regular season thoroughbreds or do they turn into pumpkins at the stroke of midnight, like Cinderella’s carriage? Post-season legends are created by exceptional playoff performances from unexpected sources.
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that GM Ken Holland has all but said that the Wings are through with Igor Grigorenko. Of course this happens AFTER I do up his profile in the soon to be released Fantasy Prospects Report! Anyway, Holland says that Grigs is not committed to his conditioning so they are [...]
Looking for a freelance/ rookie graphics designer for some small projects. If interested, email me at dobber @ dobberhockey .com Larry Brooks asked Jaromir Jagr if this was the end, if he was going to Omsk or retiring. Jagr said "Larry, if I knew this was the end, why would I care so much?" Suddenly realizing [...]
