well everybody's dancin

  in a ring around the sun

Nobody's finished, we ain't even begun. (everyone share writing credits)



well.......i sure hope the Rangers and Chris Drury aren't finished......because with the exception of lulu and the islanders; everyone else has gotten better.......don't try to validate it, just trust me.

the Devils, Canes, Flyers, and even the Caps are making moves, addressing weakness, and bringing in new blood....Torts will get the flyers in the post season this year, i am sure of that.

my two watchdog teams had active offseasons.....the Utah Yeti are bringing in a few veterans to help season their stable of young, developing talent and will surely make the playoffs in their debut season by the Great Salt Lake.

and our other team that we love to stalk , the Detroit Redwings; are having a Broadway revival.....Stevie Y knows exactly what he is doing......he drafted well, his young guns are also developing , and now he brought in some fellas that can teach/show them how to win....it may just be coincidence but he now has 6 players that spent time in a Blueshirt recently....Kane, Tarasenko, Motte, Copp, Gustafson and my old favorite between the pipes....Cam Talbot .....the Yzerwings are another near miss from last year that should appear in the post season...

Barry Trotz made the biggest splash in Nashville....signing a trio of top tier free agents to go with a playoff team roster.....Stamkos, Marchessault and Brady Skjei ....along with maintaining their own key free agents.......watch out for the PREDS....

as for Drury....he's in a tough spot....they gave too much of their cap allocation to Shesterkin......you need a good goalie to win the cup.......not one with a behemoth salary that limits how you fill out the rest of the roster.....but every team is up against the same cap....despite some teams having the distinct advantage of being located in a state without income tax ....no surprise Tampa and The Panthers are enjoying so much success.......still there are rumors that Drury is working on a blockbuster to land Trevor Zegras away from the Mighty Ducks......we shall see.......

who says we don't talk hockey on the hockey blog.....

Take a vacation, fall out for a while,Summer's comin' in, and it's goin' outa style.
