Selanne is a major impact player... him being on the ice should improve others around him immediately.<BR/><BR/>And going 29-14-6 this year won't happen - too much parity... and yes the playoff bar is lower and that's because of the parity.Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17812504893295150272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-83804139211919370662007-12-14T18:36:00.000-08:002007-12-14T18:36:00.000-08:00Hey Sleek, I didn't see any mention of typing wit...Hey Sleek, I didn't see any mention of typing with his elbows in your comments on Pronger's blog.

If Scott doesn't play this weekend he may have to fake his own death to get out of his trip. I tried to be helpful and offered to go to the game while he's gone and tell him how awesome it was when Scott came back, but he didn't seem too enthused about that.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and can we start a petition to get Rob's name changed to "Career Disappointment Rob Niedermayer?"

But he better play tonight because I have to go to a wedding Sunday and can't make it to the game. And to make matters worse, its one of my girlfriends friends not mine. And I don't even really like her or her fiance that much. And they won't even have open bar. So if Niedermayer doesn't play tonight, I'm gonna be pissed. <BR/><BR/>An apparent rumor I heard around was McDonald for Weight. Salaries are about the same, but Weight's expires at the end of this year. <BR/><BR/>And I totally agree with your analsys that having great dmen improve all your offensive lines. I think Selanne happens to be one of the best goal scorers I've gotten to see since I started hockey, which limits me to post 1989. But as far as the rest of the guys, very mediocre as far as Stanley Cup forwards go. Btw, who scored both goals against Vancouver on Wednesday?Bryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17896285658845291441noreply@blogger.com
