end of march sports update: from down under
Hello folks,
in the last month i have heard the flames arent doing amazing, but they are playing good enough to be playing into april....barely. they are now 40-27-10, which is good enough to be tied with dallas for 5th with 90 points, one point behind minny for the division lead. they are 6 points clear of 9th place nashville with 5 games left, so they should end up in the playoffs. 6th place would be a good place to finish if they cant win the division.
in the east, montreal is leading the way?! thats cool, they are having a great season. calgary vs montreal for the cup! thats just my uneducated guess from australia.
also in the cfl, the argonauts managed to pry kerry Joseph from the riders with a few draft picks and prospects. bad deal for the riders, first they lose the coach, now the allstar qb. also ottawa has been granted a franchise again, but this time it will work out, the right owners are involved and they wont operate until they can get a new stadium. cool stuff.
the roughnecks are 4-8, so not doing great.
thats all for now.
Adam

trade deadline update
ok so the other poster on here sent me an update...here it is
Hey Adam!
I would've posted this on the blog but apparently my gmail account expired and I can't do a blog anymore.I just came back from Cuba so here is the latest.
LA traded Jarolslav Modry to Phillie for draft pick.P
hillie traded Jim Vandermeer to calgary for a draft pick (this was Calgary's only trade) and happened a couple days before the deadline. I like this trade by the way. Kind of wishing bigger named players like Jokinen but what ever. Sutter said the day before that he has no intentions of trading Tanguay.
Simon gagne has a season ending concussion.
Ethan Moreau is out for the season.
Selanne is doing fine had a hat trick while I was gone.
Kipper had his first shutout against the Red Wings (first game Vandermeer played). Calgary is currently on top of the north west division.
Forsberg signed a year reto active contract with Colorado.
McCarty signed with Detroit.
Dan Boyle signed a huge contract with TB similiar to Phaneuf's contract.
Edmonton put Patrick Thoresen on waivers and Philadelphia picked him up.
Philadelphia traded Alexandre Picard to TB for Prospal (good trade for Phil).
