TSN is reporting that Dave Tippett is next in line to coach the Hamilton/Phoenix/Saskatoon Coyotes. I was never a fan of Tippett and I think this is a pretty terrible hire and shows that the management really has NO interest in bettering the Coyotes. I sure hope the young guys who need lots of guidance [...]

TSN is reporting that Jose Theodore’s 2 month old son passed away recently. Just asking everyone to send their positive thoughts (and prayers if you roll that way) to the Theodore family during what is sure to be a very difficult time for them.

To be or not to be?

The playoff race in the Western Conference is in a scary place right now. Just last week, the Stars were in 5th all by themselves, and now we’re in a mess with 3 other teams for the 7-10th spots with the losses to Chicago and San Jose over the weekend.

Barry Melrose Fired

Barry Melrose has been fired from his job as head coach of the Tampa Bay Lightning.
I’m not sure this will really help the Lightning, but it’s certainly not going to do any harm. I thought Melrose was a laughable pick for coach over the offseason, but he’s not their only problem.
That team won’t get better [...]
Former Stars Update

I’m going to try to do one of these each week to keep everyone up to date on what’s going on with some of our former players.
First off, Smitty is playing wonderfully for Tampa. He only has one victory, but his GAA is 1.92 (4th in the league) and his save % is .943 (best in [...]

Ugh, that was a TERRIBLE game last night. I don’t even want to go into any kind of recap. I saw enough of it last night, and I’m sure everyone here doesn’t want to hear about it either. Marty needs to get his legs glued together because he’s letting more things between them than a [...]

Playoffs – Day 1
Posted in 2008 Playoffs, Non-Stars Hockey Stuff on April 9, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Welcome to the playoffs, guys! This is definitely my favorite time of the year for hockey, as I’m sure it is for all the other hockey fans here… unless your team didn’t make the playoffs, but the draft is coming up in June!
4 of the 8 series started tonight. I managed to catch most of [...]
Good Job Mats!

I’m glad Mats didn’t waive his no-trade clause. I’m angry that Toronto even asked him too in the first place. I don’t believe that a no-trade clause is something that should just be waived when the team feels it’s the best move. Toronto offered him the no-trade clause for a reason: He is too good [...]
