IMO, it's not the GM's fault that they are smarter than the attorneys who wrote the CBA. Every team looks for ways to gain a competitive advantage. It's the teams job to do this; be the best within the rules.

I agree that this is not what I consider cheating, it is certainly within the grey area because of the poorly written rules. If you want to call it cheating you wont get too much arguement from me on that side though either.

Saw this a few days ago and I was sure it was a photoshop, I was shocked to learn it was real. How could they make such a bad mistake?!

Are these similar to the Trion or Phateon bracelets/necklaces?? I got some Trion ones for free and wear them but I don't think they help me in anyway..

I am no hippie just want to state that. That said the power balance is differnet. they allegedly use magnets ,the titanium stuff is supposed to promote cal m.
found one on amazon cheap I bought it.
:-) I will report back.
teemu is apparently pimping these, that said having played for a while I know how superstitious I was and how bad others are. Likely all in the head. I think i will have the boy wear it and see what happens.

I saw this yesterday too!! I need a stick!

Yeah Looks like Santa is doing some early Christmas Shopping. Seeing some gloves and a stick for Micah.
Registering him to play roller hockey along with his ice hockey this year. Some fantastic deals on youth roller hockey gear also. Being a gear whore is defintely an issue.

Hawks still have to pay him even if he plays there, but at least it's not a cap hit.

Probert was well past his prime at that point. Severyn couldn't have lasted 10 seconds with him a couple years earlier.

No doubt he looked very winded. You could tell that skill was still there though.
Ahbroody 03:58 PM 09-01-2010
Well there you have it boys.
Niemi will be a shark this year.
Only a one year deal, hoping it goes long term as I see him as a possible great goalie in a few years.

Penguins have completed the puzzle. 29 other teams should just stay home this year...
Mike Comrie
And I don't say this because Mike is so great, I say this because Mike is married to this:

So seriously, stay home. She is mine! (And Mike's)
