Lindros, Flyers, Fans Begin Reconciliation Process
2000 Eastern Conference Finals, Game 7. The very mention of the game creates an uneasy feeling in the minds of Flyers’ fans.
Oilers’ Power Play Keeping Team Afloat
While the Oilers have fallen on hard times, 'The Kid Line' has been integral in helping the club's poor PP of last year improve immensely. Right now, it is the only successful aspect in Edmonton's game.
Senators’ identity dictates they take high-reward risks
Those risks made this organization make the playoffs for 11 consecutive seasons and 12 out of their last 13 before missing last year's postseason.
Personally I like the trade, and I am looking forward to seeing Versteeg in a Leafs uni this coming season.
The Leafs are definitely moving towards not only respectability, but also a playoff spot. Since hiring Brian Burke to take over as GM and re-build the franchise, Toronto has made several key acquisitions. As you said, Versteeg is just another step in the right direction.
Hockey has changed very quickly. Dynasties will be rare. The Chicago champions have been dispersed. Getting Versteeg is like having a piece of memorabilia without the guarantee it’s value will increase. Hope is the only truth in this sport. I hope my team wins.
