Poor Zidane. What a way to go out. Normally I wouldn't cheer for anything French except for fries and kissing but against the Italians it wasn't much choice.

I'd say 1.2 for a guy who plays less than eight minutes a night is wayyyy too much. And Ruutu has been in the NHL for more than six years. HIs highest point total was last year with 17 points in 81 games.

I just got in from Dead Man's Chest. It was a solid show. Like Draken stated earlier it does get a bit confusing. But really good anyway. Just don't stay till the end of the credits for the extra bit. Trust me, it's not worth it. I'll give this one seven and a half yahtzees out of ten scrabbles.

And if Peca does sign with the Buds, it'll be at a reduced rate. I believe they are getting pretty close to the maximum cap space, aren't they? It's good that the market has slowed down a little after the blow out of the past week. I mean, the money that's been flying around for these defencemen is just plain retarded. Hell, I'll even go out on a limb and say two of the leagues biggest pests/enforcers in Ruutu and Laraque both hit the jackpot on their last contracts. 1.2 million per season for Laraque? That's just like burning cash. Do they expect him to be the 20-20 man he always thought he could be in Edmonton? Nobody mentions the year Laraque put up points was when he was playing with ultra smart veteran center Jim Dowd and skates-like-the-wind Boyd Devereux.

I'm heading out to see it in less than an hour. I expect to eat a big ass tub of popcorn.

I just placed 85th out of 1096 people in an online poker tournament. I could have held out a little bit longer, but sometime's you throw caution to the wind in that game. Too bad it didn't pay off.

So nobody is rushing out to see Pirates of The Caribean 2 yet?

Alex Chilton - Free Again well I had me a girl but she couldn't understand me and my ways, my need to be a man left her today put my life in my hands well I'm free again

I picked up Ultimate Spiderman on the cheap today. It's fun, but not quite as comlex as the movie games. Plus I don't really care for playing as Venom so far. Although it was a plus to bitchslap Wolverine around.

Down By The RIver - Neil Young

You're right Laozi, the big C caught up to him in the mid nineties. The Tragically Hip - New Orleans Is Sinking

My hands down favorite ER song is Driving MY Life Away. Back when I was just a pup Eddie was the king of the pop and country charts. Then he just dissapeared.

Eddie Rabbit - I love a rainy night

Currently enjoying some classic Eddie Murphy standup material. These ones are from Delirious goonie goo goo

Is Hades writing an essay?

Here you go, Silvershadow.

sweet jebus numbers, is that from the old Pro Wrestling game for the NES? Although I preferred the arcade version of Exciting Hour myself.

And au revoir to big number 27. Jumping Georges Laraque has decided to join the..ahem...Phoenix Coyotes. Edmontons' teenaged girls will be in trouble without having Georges radio show to call in to talk about their little boyfriend problems. Plus his charity work around the city will be sorely missed. Laraque would go to a kids birthday party if you asked him. I can remember a time when the Oil had three brothers on it. Now there is none.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

I'm having a bitch of a time trying to get the cell phone from Jizzy on GTA. I keep blowing up his car before I can get it.

Well moving Cloutier for essentially nothing should help the Canucks financial situation. They still have nearly half a team to sign still, don't they? And it looks like Spacek has ended up in Buffalo. <_< That's too bad because now Edmonton is even weaker on defence right now.

You're reminding me of this Brit right here, Checkpoint.

I wonder who will play with Naslund on their top line. Morrsion didn't do himself any favors last year at all, but having that new French coach might bring him back up to form. And it looks like Anson ( trade me for a bag of pucks and some doritos, please) looks to be on his way out as well. If I were him, I'd sign a one year deal at what the 'Nucks are offering and then try for a big payday. He's been too inconsistant in the last few years to really command any big bucks. Although Vancouver still has two upper level offensive d-men in Salo and Ohlund you have to wonder who else is going to play with Willie Mitchell. I didn't think the northwest division could get any tighter than last year. Looks like I was wrong. And Phoenix will still suck.

I don't want to agree with you DT, but I will. Thank jebus Ruutu has moved out east. Rumblings on other message boards have Jaro Spacek not wanting to resign with the Oilers either. If that's the case our thinned out blueline will be a little thinner. Who do you trade for? Sergei Gonchar, that's who. Are you catching this Kevin Lowe?

I'm on holidays working on my tan and beard. It's too bad I'm noticing a lot more grey in the whiskers this time around.
