It's been almost 2 weeks since Gillis' press conference, you'd think that some sort of announcement would be made by now. Maybe waiting to see what Tippet is going to do? It's getting a bit weird. If AV is here next year, any faith I had in GMMG will be gone.

So if you're looking for Tippet, you'll have to wait till then as well. Until then, he is Phoenix's property.

The Carolina Hurricanes announced on Saturday that their captain will not need surgery after suffering a third-degree sprain of his MCL at the world hockey championships on Thursday in Sweden.
Eric Staal needed to be helped off the ice after he was involved in a knee-on-knee collision with Sweden's Alex Edler.
In a release, the Hurricanes said Staal's rehabilitation is set to take about three months and he is expected to be ready for the start of the 2013-14 NHL season.
Edler, who was given a game misconduct for kneeing, was suspended for the remainder of the IIHF tournament on Friday.
Staal had three assists in eight games with Team Canada at the tournament. The team was eliminated by Sweden in the quarterfinals.
| Don't think an injury update been posted so here ya go..
Edler can sleep easy now...

Easy to hate Boston for what they did to the Canucks, but also easy to respect their game right now.

NBA screw job to hype up hockey in California?
Watching all these playoff games, i think the Canucks should keep David Booth and give him a chance... but sign another top six scoring winger.

Wow the Sharks are looking a lot better than they did against the Canucks. Thought the Kings would roll over them but I guess not

Based on what I saw from both of their performances in round 1, I called Kings in 7 before this series started.

Quote:
It will be interesting to see if the Sharks can pick up where they left off after getting a full week off.
It should be a close series and any edge could be the difference. I suspect this series will go to seven games and at that point, I think the Kings should edge the Sharks with the backing of the Staples Centers’ crowd.

Their strong play against Vancouver suggests that this could finally be the year

Kings to eliminate the Sharks in 7 games as Jonathan Quick gets hot.
| - ESPN America - FOX Sports Quote: |
If both teams maintain their level of play — and if both continue to get great goaltending from Antti Niemi and Jonathan Quick — we could be in for a long Golden State series. Sharks in 7.

soo......pretty sure YOU'd be one of the only people to say that....
