I was completely shock with the Oilers actions. I can only imagine what Crosby, Malkin, Stall, and Fleury will get.

i'm in chicago so our hockey hasn't been great in awhile, especially since our owner doesn't televize home games, but we got some good young talent this year that did well in first preseason practice so i hope the blackhawks ccan win 20 games next season If Havlet (sp) can stay healthy I believe the Blackhawks could make a push to be in the playoffs. *sigh* I remember reading an article on how the Sharks almost landed Havlet last year... instead of Mark Bell . DW was talking with the now fire GM of Ottawa and they had the deal set. The Sharks would have sent a 1st, Tom Preissing, Josh Hennessy (power foward prospect), and Vesa Toskala for Havlet who had to be sign for a two year extension. It was all set and at the last second the Ottawa GM decided to try to weasel more out of DW. So DW withdrew from the deal. Sense your a blackhawk fan I have to ask, what happen to Mark Bell? His first game with the Shark was great. Joe, Cheechoo, and him got on a three on zip break and he made a goal. Sense then he was just terrible. More Oilers infoIt's rumor that Lowe has a list of RFA he's after and Vanek was number 1. Number 2 is rumor to be Zach Parise while 3 is Dustin Penner. Man I can only imagine how mad Brian Burke will be . He was so angry that the Oilers didn't trade Smyth to him.

Oilers made an offer to the Ducks Dustin Penner five years 21.25 million. - SourceRumors state that Burke plans to match, though he only has two million in cap space left .

That's a great deal for Derek Roy, especially if you look at what Dustin Penner set to make. Florida's new jerseys - Link* I found out some horrible news about the whole Dustin Penner drama. The Oilers have to give their own picks to the Ducks. I'm sorry, but I don't see the Oilers improving at all. They're pretty much giving the Ducks a top 10 if not top 5 draft pick in a really good draft. As a Shark fan, I'm not thrill.

Dustin Penner is an Oiler, the Oilers fork over thier 1st, 2nd, 3rd in 2008. - LinkI think this is such a dumb move by the Oilers. The next draft is suppose to be a great one especially for d-men. Now instead they give up all their draft picks to the Ducks. As a Shark fan I'm just mad... the ducks were going to stink like doggy poo after Pronger retires, but nooooo. Now they're going to reload their stables with great players. Or even worse trade bryzgolov(sp?) with those picks to fill in their holes. This move could seriously end up giving another cup to the Ducks.

lol, as a Sabres fan, I would hate to face the Ducks in the Cup Finals this year if they have all these young guys, but if another team I dislike faces them, I would love to see them win it ^___^ Though I'm sure that's how a lot of people feel.

The Ducks aren't a young team, Getzlaf and Perry are the only young ones. Everyone else is old. I remember this hilarious "Young Gun" segment where they were matching young players from different teams. They had a Shark/Duck segment which look like this. Ducks Perry 21 Getzlaf 21 Penner 24 Beauchemin 26 Sharks Carle 22 Bernier 21 Michalek 21 Vlasic 19 The sad thing is Bell and Cheechoo are 26 too, but they didn't even mention them.

Season starts on Oct. 3rd! My beloved team starts on the road against Edmonton. I hope they win, but they always seem to lose to them . Other news Sharks resign Patzold, he'll most likely be the backup goalie this year.
