First Big Trade

Ottawa traded Patrick Eaves and Joseph Corvo to Carolina for Mike Commodore and Cory Stillman.

I think Ottawa got the better of that deal. Stillman's good but Commodore is capable of huge things during playoffs.

Last night a freaky thing happened during the Panthers game. Richard Zednik got his throat slashed by Olli Jokinen's skate and they sent him to the hospital for emergency surgery. I guess it was horrific and they were evning considering canceling the rest of the game.

Montreal Canadiens defenceman Ryan O'Byrne and forward Tom Kostopoulos were arrested outside of a Tampa nightclub early Monday morning. They were arrested for stealing a ladies purse at the night club... Weird. Who knows more could come out of it.

Right now Ovechkin is leading in goals and points. Alfredsson was catching up to AO in points but AO had a big night and pulled away again.

Flames thumped Oilers in return last Saturday 4-1. Nolan had 2 goals. Calgary was relentless and were all over Edmonton. Calgary slowed toward the end and Gagner fed Nilsson a wicked pass to wreck Kippers shutout hopes. Iginla's been okay but quiet at the same time.

Phaneuf had his third goal. 3 goals the past 2 games. He's been playing with a lot of fire of late.

As for Stamp's news they have been quiet of late but the rest of the CFL have been trading players (I have no idea if any of them are worthwhile noting).

Take care Adam! Your desk is still vacant.
