There's also news on Twitter saying that the girl that flashed us with her lovely boobs last night is banned from Roger's Arena.
Perhaps Gh0strider aka TuRD604 can confirm since he works security there Posted via RS Mobile |

By the way, those worried that Kesler hasn't been as beastly in the first two games of this series as the last...I have what is probably the simple explanation. Not saying it's correct but it would make sense.
Round 1: Kesler doesn't score but keeps most of the Hawks off the scoreboard, mostly Toews until he got that goal in the last minute of game 7. I think he had a great series even if it didn't show in the score. He was physical and shooting a lot but just didn't get pucks in.
Round 2: Nashville doesn't have much of an offense to shut down so Kes could focus more on shooting and scoring. When he doesn't have to play serious defense (LOL Mike Fisher), he can beast it up on offense and he won that entire series for us.
Round 3: Not only does San Jose have a serious offense for Kesler to play against, the Sharks also know that Kesler is a gamebreaker after seeing his performance in round 2 so they've probably focused more of their defensive effort on him. This has allowed the Sedins and pretty much everyone else more room on the ice so you see the Sedins breaking out in this series.

I can't believe Eager is calling out Bieksa for not fighting him and fighting Marleau.
It's because Bieksa knows not to be a fucking idiot. If he fights Eager, what does he get? Even if he wins the fight, he's in the box for 5 minutes along with some douche that usually barely plays 5 minutes a game. He's no threat to the Canucks. This is a bad trade-off.
If he fights Marleau? He puts one of the Sharks best players in the box for 5 minutes and he gets to KEVIN SMASH his face. Even if he loses the fight, Marleau is a big guy and still, Bieksa and Marleau in the box is a pretty even tradeoff.
He's not being a coward. He's using his brain and doing what's best for the Canucks.

Winnipeg should have something with gold in it and the colors should be blue and gold. They have the baseball team called the Goldeye's a fish in the lakes there and the main attraction downtown is the golden boy and of course the bomber's color's are blue and gold.

Bettman denies the Thrashers to Winnipeg deal is done. Highlighted part is a little shady...like they're leaking info for a strategic reason. Quote:
ATLANTA (AP)—The Thrashers still belong to Atlanta—for now.
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly and True North Sports and Entertainment denied a deal has been reached to sell the team to True North, which would relocate it to Winnipeg, Manitoba.
The Globe and Mail in Toronto reported Thursday that the Thrashers’ agreement with True North was done and will be announced in Winnipeg on Tuesday. True North is led by Winnipeg businessman Mark Chipman and billionaire David Thomson, whose family owns The Globe and Mail.
On his weekly radio show Thursday, Bettman said no deal has been made to move the Thrashers to Winnipeg.
“We get reports, speculation, that the team’s gone,” Bettman said. “And there’s no deal. I can tell you that with certainty that there is no deal for this team to move. Am I predicting that there will never be or that there won’t be at some point in time? No, I’m not saying there is or there isn’t.”
True North spokesman Scott Brown told The Canadian Press the report is “not true.”
While no deal is final, the reprieve for Atlanta could be short-lived. One of the Thrashers’ lead owners, Bruce Levenson, has said his top priority has been to find a buyer who would keep the team in Atlanta.
The two-year search for a buyer to keep the team in Atlanta hasn’t been successful.
Winnipeg lost the Jets in 1996 when the team moved to Phoenix because of financial problems. Atlanta lost a team to a Canadian city in 1980 when the Flames moved to Calgary, Alberta.
Bettman, who fielded calls from Thrashers fans on his show, said the league will consider moving a team only when there is no owner willing to keep the team in its current city.
“The key to this may be, in the final analysis, whether or not somebody wants to own the team in Atlanta,” Bettman said. “In the absence of either the current ownership group continuing to own and operate or somebody stepping forward who wants to buy the club, that becomes the situation that concerns us or any sports league.
“We’ll only leave a market—in this case Atlanta, picking up on the caller’s statements—if we have to. And hopefully the current ownership group will figure a way out of this that makes sense for everybody.”
The Thrashers are still planning a select-a-seat event for season-ticket holders at Philips Arena on Saturday. Fans are planning a rally before the event.
Levenson would not say on Thursday if Atlanta fans can still make an impact with a strong turnout at the rally on Saturday.
“I understand their frustration but as I have said we are not allowed to comment on discussions with potential buyers and we must operate the business as usual until we find a solution,” Levenson told The Associated Press.
Bettman will follow the turnout by Thrashers fans at Saturday’s rally.
“It will be interesting to see how many people show up at the rally on Saturday,” Bettman said.
Levenson would not comment on the Toronto report or the status of talks with any potential buyer.
True North owns Winnipeg’s MTS Centre, which would be home to the Thrashers if the deal is finalized, and the American Hockey League’s Manitoba Moose.
Bettman said “time is getting short” if a deal can be reached in time for the Thrashers to move for the 2011-12 season.
The Thrashers’ average attendance this season was 13,469, 28th out of 30 teams. Attendance has declined as the Thrashers, who made their debut as an expansion franchise in 1999, have made only one playoff appearance and some fans became impatient with team management.
The ownership group led by Levenson and Michael Gearon Jr. also owns the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks and operating rights to Philips Arena.
| But then again, nothing Bettman ever says is true so the deal is probably already done but he wants to try to leverage something with a prospective buyer that would keep the team in Atlanta.
