Check your phone. When I said "Thrash have a center", I suspect that you heard: "Katie Bar The Door! Here comes Marty Reasoner". I'm sorry, what I really meant was "Oh. Fucking great. Now I have two pivotless pivots, and one with nary a hair on his sac." You've clearly been fantasizing about a world where the Pest says nicey-nice things about Donnie the Wad. Please. Ron Hainsey for 22.5 mil? Reasoner? Dropping the ball and passing up Ray Emery, Zhitnick for Coburn? Savard? Hossa? Sutton? Metropolit? No goalie worth a half-inch of limp dog's dick for 5 years (with apologies to Pasi Nurminen)—and now we got a pricey puck-stop with noodles for nads—And, lest we forget... the Patrick Stefan debacle... I can only pray that Kozlov will wake up without Hossa crushing his nuts at every turn and that Jason Williams, Eric Perrin, Colby Armstrong and Eric Christensen don't die of shame before they convince the remaining Thrash to Frag the fucking GM. That fat, worthless, blundering motherfucker can do nothing but cheat and hump us while the Wolves win Calder after Calder. What the fuck is that?! But enough whining about that shit. I'm happy to rain on your blog any day. BTW...How did 'Nucky the Open Source Freak get suckered into paying for this site anyway? He's generally pretty shrewd for a Hippie... (Yeah, I can see how that might change the context of a post—you can pretty much assume that I'm shooting low, which would pretty much eliminate Nathanael West from my repertoire) Pest Oh, please, dick.

Anyways, Jeff tells me he's not stoked on paying money to keep the site going, so I'll prolly start a new one over at someplace free...where I would of course urge you to post whatever you might wish, even if it is some deranged piece of fanfic about how Marty Reasoner is worth acquiring in some insane alternate universe. Info to follow. -C (Funny side note: I read "Herbert West" as Nathanial West, which gave yr piece a rather different spin.) A.

So they're going to go <i>back over the cap</i>? Who are they going to sign? A shotblocking rebounder who doesn't seem to need too many offensive touches? Or one of those awesome top-tier free-agent point guards who seem to be everyplace you look these days? Best case scenarios: (1) they don't use the exemption, and are just under the cap with a deeply flawed roster (2) they use the exemption, and very likely discover that 10 mil doesn't fix the problems they have (no size, nobody manning the point) Note that in best-case scenario 2, they're back over the cap. Either way, they still handed an excellent player to a team competing with them for a playoff spot. I don’t get it. So they’re going to go back over the cap? Who are they going to sign?

"Look, I know you've been hurt, and we obviously don't expect you to score from the trainer's room. But that's over now. Maybe you can give us a little wake the fuck up, now?" Something to that effect. For what it's worth, cheers to Wirtz on the fuckin' Hale-Bopp comet. The mag has an article on how televised hockey gets crap viewing & they don't mention his name, but the specter of Wirtz is there the whole time, whispering "You will not build up any fan momentum. Either come to the game or watch the 'Everyone Loves Raymond' that you deserve." Yeah, that's why I hate Wirtz. He wanted us to watch "Everyone Loves Raymond". Anyone with such an agenda is clearly an emissary of the devil (or the New Jersey hockey team that plays for him).

I hope to heck we dont look like a Winterhawks only blog. I thought we had enough bitching and moaning about the NHL up front-and-center to make it clear that we're suckers for just about ANY Hockey. But I just gotta say that any Hockey- chick in a town with a team that has an overtly scatological name is a-ok with me. Keep your head up. Pest Yike!
