Ryan getting shopped to Columbus, Toronto, Minny and Philly....
I can see Jeff Carter landing in Anaheim.  Richards 'ol drinking buddy in SoCal?  

I hear Semin is being shopped as well.  Wouldn't mind having him here in L.A., but I know the Caps would want the world in return.

Big game tonight with Blueshirts and Pens.

KING HENRIK!!!!!!

Associated Press

NEW YORK -- Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty has been suspended three games by the NHL for a hit to the head of Pittsburgh defenseman Kris Letang.

Pacioretty

The league made the announcement Monday night, hours after Pacioretty had a hearing over the phone with NHL disciplinarian Brendan Shanahan.

Pacioretty struck Letang in the head with his shoulder with 3:14 left in the third period of Montreal's 4-3 overtime loss to Pittsburgh on Saturday. Letang was bloodied and sustained a broken nose, but he returned to the game and scored the winning goal.

Pacioretty, who wasn't penalized during the game for the hit, will sit out Wednesday at Anaheim, Thursday at San Jose, and Saturday at Los Angeles and will lose $26,351.34 in salary.

He is eligible to return Dec. 6 against Columbus.

So I guess the rangers won't get a call at home?

 

[DeadsetAce]

rangers working fluery tonight

 

[duba169]

Wow. The young ins going nuts and then Richards. Naaaasty

 

[youngin33]

Goal at the end of the 2nd for the Pens gave them momentum, only up 1.

This is going to be a nail biter.

 

[lvjordan238]

Murray was at the Sabres-Isles game.

And Aaron Ward says Carlyle sucked the fun out of the game in the two months he played for us, and he couldn't wait to get out.

 

[dmxfury]

My buddy who played 15 games for Anaheim in the 06-07 season said the exact same thing about Carlyle. He rarely speaks to the 3rd and 4th line guys and just has no emotion and rarely interacts with his players. It's a shame because Anaheim is a deep club IMO and should be one of the West powerhouses.

 

[addictedtofreshkicks]

awesome win for the Rangers

 

[hawkflight6]

Jets lose at home to the Senators

I've been to 5 games and they've lost 4 of them, this sucks

On the bright side Evander Kane scored 2 more goals and Blake Wheeler doubled his goal total this year with a 2 foot tap in

 

[cquan05]

So, Bobby Ryan is pretty much done as a Duck by the sounds of things.........I read that it's a salary dump? Burkey needs to pull some strings and get him in the Blue & White

 

[lvjordan238]

Not a salary dump by any means. The idea, albeit very stupid, behind it is to get more depth throughout the lineup. Something along the lines of a #2 Center + another scoring FWD.

Absolutely stupid idea to make a trade like this though. Bobby for Crosby and Malkin couldn't save this season. Bobby is signed to a great contract and Getz and Pears are both UFA after next season. They aren't going to want to stick around on a losing team.

 

[physicx]

who needs a high end scorer more than nashville?

ryan suter anyone

 

[doublejs07]

Rumor circulating....Alexander Semin to SJ for Marleau + 2nd round pick....

Someone's been reading too much Damien Cox.

BTW, Leafs get spanked again by the B's.

[DeadsetAce]

[physicx]

[scuse7]

Bobby Ryan would complete the hawks, get it done Bowman

Carlyle's out, Boudreau's in:

[h1]Ducks remove Carlyle and name Boudreau new head coach[/h1][h2]TSN.ca Staff[/h2][h3]12/1/2011 1:32:34 AM[/h3]
The Anaheim Ducks have removed head coach Randy Carlyle and replaced him with former Washington Capitals bench boss Bruce Boudreau.

The club has also relieved Assistant Coaches Dave Farrish and Mike Foligno of their duties.

Ducks general manager Bob Murray, in a press release said he felt it was time to make a change to get a new perspective into the dressing room.

"This was an extremely difficult decision," said Murray in a release. "Randy is a terrific head coach, and did a tremendous job for us for six-plus seasons. We thank him greatly for his hard work and dedication to our franchise, not the least of which was a Stanley Cup championship. At this time, we simply felt a new voice was needed. Bruce is a proven winner with a great track record, and we are optimistic we can turn this season around under his leadership."

Murray informed Carlyle 40 minutes after tonight's victory over the Montreal Canadiens.

The now former Ducks head coach  has two more years after this season on his current contract.

Boudreau won the 2007-08 NHL coach of the year award with the Capitals and also led them to the 2009-10 Presidents' Trophy as the top club in the regular season.

He was let go by the Capitals on Monday.

 

[addictedtofreshkicks]

this probably means Ryan is off the trade block for the time being.

 

[nestasprotege]

If only he were 3 years younger , that would be the type of player the Caps need.
