Franzen cleared to play after being out since January with a concussion. I'm scared for him. I really hope nothing happens cause that could be bad.

Crazy how some of these names can't get a 1 year deal somewhere.

Yeah, seems like more than usual. Indication of the youth movement in the NHL?

I'm happy the Flyers are finally not one of those teams trying to see what an old timer (relatively speaking) has left in the tank. Just go youth movement.

Guy played in too many men's leagues in the offseason.

I had a league that kept buckets of beers on ice on the benches during games.

Yep. We have a whiteboard (n/r) here at work that I've had the count down going to the start of the NHL season. Think I started it at 65-ish days. Says 22 now...

[bradshaw06]

Havent been around much, have we discussed the fantasy league? I believe last year we talked about making a keeper. I think Ben needs to renew?

[TMoore4075]

Does anyone personally know our GM of the yahoo league? Getting closer here.

[salrx95]

That awful leaked black jersey that was rumored to be the new Islander 3rd jersey for Brooklyn is the jersey. It is really the worst looking thing ever. I'm so disappointed. I won't provide a link to that shit and I won't be buying a jersey.

As for fantasy, why don't we start up a new one then with a keeper, etc from the start. I'd join. I'm sure we could get 10 of us. No?

[TMoore4075]

I think the idea was to start last year knowing that this year would be a keeper year, but if we have to start over we have to start over.

[barbogast]

Yikes, Sal. That jersey is just awful. I'm so sorry you have to see your team represented in it. Tavares looks so displeased in the photos on the Isle twitter page

They going Brooklyn to look like the Nets, I guess...you know, the Black.

When it was leaked weeks, I was all over saying, nah, it has to be some sort of practice jersey.

I guess they will be coming out to "Gangsta's Paradise" when they wear those jerseys.

[lockman21]

Tavares even looks disappointed to be unveiling those hideous monsters.

[TMoore4075]

Speaking of jerseys, no ads on them for now. Bettman (if we are to believe him) said it would take A LOT of money to make it happen. Let's hope no one gets to that number.

[fonzz41]

If anyone was wondering, Kane is on the Hawks training camp roster.

[dmbetc]

Those jersey are awful. Yikes!

[kev87lads]

Get to a preseason game near you if you want to see some 3 on 3.
