			<description><![CDATA[I had this on my mind awhile ago, heard it on the radio again last night. Are we truly seeing the end of the Goon era in the NHL? Guys who don't produce anything other than bloody fists appear to be almost extinct. Just yesterday, the Leafs placed Orr on waivers. This is a guy who's never passed the 6 point mark in an NHL season but up until now, was considered an asset. Why all the sudden is he expendable? I think it's fair to say that if you can't do more than fight, you just don't fit anymore. I don't expect this means fighting will leave the game, that will never happen. To me it shows the importance of guys who can pot a goal now and again, make a play, make hits and play tough nose hockey. Guys like Neil, Lucic, Simmonds, Downie, Ott, Clarkson come to mind. I expect you'll see more of this as the year goes on, with head shots and concussions gaining more and more light. While fighting alone hasn't ended up with many real injuries, many have pointed the finger in that direction. Even a guy like Carkner, being limited to only 10 games is doing his best not to be a willing combatant this year and instead, play a more defensive game. My prediction, guys like McGrattan, McLeod, Staubitz will soon be out of a job as teams look to get faster and stronger. Anyone else have thoughts on this?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Umm...nothing against Greening, but... Till Pumps and Silfverberg are ready dont see anyone else in that role this year Michalek Spezza Perry Foligno Turris Spezza But this is all "what if..." talk anyways. I just wouldn't think that Greening would stay of the first "if" anything like that were to ever happen. I would say that we will never get perry, but I said that about turris, and I can only fit one shoe in my mouth at at time ;) To be honest I would have had folingo there too but Folingo I think is the type of player ducks would like in return in a package do too skill and age ..]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Ok, just waiting for the slew of comments saying that a trade of that size will never happen. Come on, nobody??? Wow, I brought up a comment about a month ago wondering what a Bobby Ryan trade would require (mere inquiry) and it took minutes before I shunned. I agree with the others, Ryan or Perry on our Wing would be a major step ahead. Who's to say any of the top 5 and above 1st round picks in this coming draft will be worth more than either of those guys? Ryan is 24, Perry is 26, not too old for a rebuild addition if you ask me. Ottawa also has the money to spend. Who knows, maybe BM has an interest. We are advancing (to this point) further ahead then most expected in our 1st year of the rebuild. Would it be worth risking a few potential stars for proven stars? It's risky, but it could work.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The only reason why there are 4 Sens is because it's.. in Ottawa. And it was promoted like mad. Let's not get delusional now, next year you can bet No.65 EK will be the only Senator there. As great as Milan is, very few consider him an "all star player" and with good reason too. GRATS BOYS!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ With the new asg format it can't really be for starters anymore. So yeah it only means they're guaranteed to be there. It should be interesting to see who the captains are... they should do Alfie vs Spezza or something like that. Why not Alfie vs Phaneuf? They were both voted in and are captains of their current teams. A bit of the Battle of Ontario flavour at the ASG!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[What a great day for our Senators! Great job to everyone who voted their asses off. I am totally shocked we managed to overtake Kessel, that is awesome! Phil deserves to be there and will be selected regardless of the fan voting, and Milan may not have made it in without our help but he totally deserves to be there as well. Four Sens in and every one of them totally deserving candidates! *mosh*]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[VIA NHL.COM Goalie Tim Thomas of the Boston Bruins was the only star able to crash the First Six parade of Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs. Ottawa defenseman Erik Karlsson led the voting with 939,951 votes, garnering 42,536 more votes than veteran teammate Daniel Alfredsson, the Ottawa captain. Center Jason Spezza is also among the First Six, joined by surprise addition Milan Michalek, who used a stunning last-day push to oust Toronto's Phil Kessel by 42,144 votes for the final forward spot. Kessel had been among the top-three in forward voting throughout the balloting process.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Once this formality passes at 10:30 I'm anxious to find out the captains. Obviously Alfie will be a captain thats a given. I would love to see Giroux as the other captain (born in Hearst played minor hockey in ottawa) Anyways what I'm most anxious to see is if Alfie drafts Elliott! haha we all know the body language shown by the Sens players after every weak Elliott goal haha Should be a fun weekend and as long as people don't think its the super bowl or Olympic games and is nothing more than a fan pleaser gimmick to create a fun environment than it should be a success]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ONLY a mild concussion! It remains damage to an already mildly (?) damaged brain. After all these injury free years it was enough to KO big Chris Phillips. 65% of hockey fans believe it's no big deal, a numeric anomaly. I have news for these hockey insiders the older you are the tougher and longer it takes to recover. Alfie; Gonchar; Winchester Phillips give me a break. I know for a fact they have done nothing for 45 years! It's no longer a joke!]]></description>

Regin will have no choice but to accept a two way contract next year. Sucks for him but he's still young. I wouldn't mind keeping him at that rate. And if a teams want to pick him up, then it will cost them draft picks. Win-win.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ You are right about "no helmet", but I remember taking a slapshot from a 17 year old, when I was 12-13, and going behind the net to pick up my puck. As I am rounding the net, I look up and see the puck coming right at me. Got my bell rung, blood oozing from my forehead. Told the 17 year old, that I wanted to scrap with him right away. BTW this was in 1955 at outdoor rink next to church ! Got a few stitches, and was back on the ice ,the next day ! Those were the days .........]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ From what I understand the NHL controls the tickets. As a season ticket holder who has 1 ticket -- I got access to 1 ASG ticket. Season ticket holders get the first dibs and there is usually nothing left for other fans. Sponsors, etc get to sit in 100's.. season ticket holders sit 200 & 300 levels.. don't know about suite holders - I assume they get what is theirs. Also what really gets me is the 'Draft' on Thursday night at the Casino is for sponsor's only. We let our Sens reps know how disappointed we were that 'fans' can't attend that.. My friend also complained to Cyril Leeder when we saw at our last Sens game. That 'Draft' again is controlled by the NHL... bullshit I say. Hey Chirp, I just noticed the word limit is higher... don't know when it happened.. but I'm alright with that.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ @ madpajamma, Most of you remember the solid & direct hit by Scott Stevens on Eric Lindros, when he was a Flyers' star ! This was a hit that would carry a penalty today, but was legal in that era. Played from 1992 to 2007. Writing was on the wall, as Brett Lindros, got out of the NHL before getting concussed. Marc Savard of Boston is another example ! Before the Eric Lindros hit, it was never addressed ,and players never complained ,but wanted to play hurt somtimes. Hey Snoopy, have you worn out the ! on your keyboard yet? LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !]]></description>

This was a hit that would carry a penalty today, but was legal in that era. Played from 1992 to 2007. Writing was on the wall, as Brett Lindros, got out of the NHL before getting concussed. Marc Savard of Boston is another example ! Before the Eric Lindros hit, it was never addressed ,and players never complained ,but wanted to play hurt somtimes.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ OMG, I've said this over and over. Growing up and playing/watchin g the older stars, we never heard of this to the extent we do today, it's almost too much. Like any player who takes a hit, of any type, is automatically sidelined. It really makes me wonder.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Does anybody know how many of the ASG tickets go to fans and how many go to corporate sponsorship and NHL guests? Edit: just spoken to a friend who works for the sens - apparently very very very few (she likes the word very) go to regular fans. Suite holders and season ticket holders have first dibs but a lot go to sponsors, corporate and NHL people.]]></description>

I mean, If you're paying money to see the ASG, then you deserve to see who you think is a star. I say with each ticket bought, you get 10 votes or whatever haha. I know that system would never get put in, but it makes sense to me :)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I agree completely that Karlsson deserves to be there. If it wasn't being held in Ottawa the case for Spezza and Alfie is lessened but they are deserving of consideration for sure. But they should be put there by the league not by the joke that is fan based balloting. As long as you have fan based balloting players who do not deserve to be there will get in because they play for teams with bigger fanbases than others. It would also eliminate people being able to vote in Toronto players to piss off Ottawa fans or Philadelphia players to piss off Penguin fans if the ASG was being held in Pittsburgh. Even though that is actually quite funny. The only virtue that fan balloting has is that it creates an atmosphere of inclusion for the fans which is important, especially for younger fans who have many temptations and destractions.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I really don't see Murray doing much at the trade deadline. Our UFA's have little value on the market and probably have more value to us due to injuries as opposed to being forced to call up guys from Binghampton if we are still in the post season hunt. He might consider player for player trades if it is a player under contract coming back but why trade a guy like Kuba for a fourth or fifth round pick when we are in playoff position and he's contributing to our success.]]></description>

Scared about Philly - hopefully Jagr's groin stays injured. Wonder what we'd pick up/move out at the deadline if we're still in the hunt (like, btw 6th-10th). I'm sure Murray will start working the other GMs during the All-Star break if we're still in contention. Which pending UFA's would we move out, and what type of player should we bring in?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Always liked Phillips, and it's too bad that he'll be out for the foreseeable future; wishing him a speedy recovery and, more importantly, that he comes back to a team that's still in playoff contention. Watched a little bit of the Leaf's game last night (2nd period) and it looked pretty run-and-gun. While Phillips was never the most mobile, he (was/is?) a great shutdown D-man. I've got to admit, I'm a lot more confident in our D this year compared to last. I think they can pull off a win against a Tampa team that seems lost at the moment; PLEASE let it be a regulation win, whether or not its a come-from-behin d thriller. Losing Phillips sucks considering the tough strech ahead.]]></description>
