I wonder if firefox has a LEAF block?
For now, we have to rely on the playoffs for that. :D

Probably when he was about to get a speeding ticket.

I've heard from many people who have been around him that he rarely would sign anything. Guess you must be one of the lucky ones.

I know he didn't want to sign anything to do with the Oilers after the whole Pockenting thing....

I went to a game here in Edmonton when they put Pocklintgton on the scoreboard for a second and it was instant boos from the whole crowd.

I'm amazed no one from Edmonton has murdered Pocklington.

Back on topic, Naslund had a couple good wrist shots tonight, no puck luck, but I think it's turning out to be the case that he hasn't lost his ability so much as his confidence, but when he's on (or close) to his game, you start to see the skills come back.

Naslund looked great last game, drives to the net, he looked like he was out to prove a point. Would love to see this spark him! as mentioned above, he just need to start getting some bounces

Why does every thread by this author end up in a Messier debate??
