As a Canadian, I think your many laws would be a whole lot easier to accept and understand if they truly were applied equally and fairly to all. We all get to watch the many exceptions that are made for US celebrities on our TV sets as well, inlcuding crimes as extreme as murder. If you want to compare an 18 year old man who due to his culture and heritage has likely been drinking wine with his meals for several years now with sex offenders then you truly have my pity. Maybe someday soon I will be watching you in a Borat sequel.

Perhaps you should take up French Canadian Heritage with Toews, Lammy and the Parises the next time you get a chance.

Sorry to put a damper on this thread, but I suspect he has been invited as a form of insurance for Team Canada in case too many NHL players should happen to decline the invitation following the completion of the first round of the playoffs. Based on what happens tonight, the likes of Crosby, Staal, Roberts and Recchi could be added to Team Canada's lineup tomorrow.

Until today I didn't believe any of the previous posts regarding an early departure by Brian Lee, now I am not so sure. A local newspaper, the Ottawa Citizen, has reported that Ottawa may be looking to move Wade Redden's big salary following the 2007 playoffs. Apparently Edmonton is the likely destination which is the closest NHL franchise with respect to his hometown of Lloydminister. In support of this theory; Craig McTavish and Charlie Huddy have been taking in the games in the current Senators/Penguins series. Given that Ottawa's number one D pairing has become Volchenkov and Phillips, IMHO this story is believable.

I believe he has the same advisors as EJ and JJ, Dee Rizzo and Pat Brisson.

No big deal as Bayda had the same status for a good portion of the Cane's season.

Mike Commodore will play for Team Canada at the World Championship in Russia later this month. http://www.tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/news_sto...99&hubname=

That sounds more reasonable.

Who told you that. I would think that Lapointe is a much more likely addition to the team.

" ... whip it good! ... "

It truly is and right after I posted I recalled that Hamilton is in the mix so if no one leaves early the team would only add Trupp and Lapointe. Next season could be phenomenal!

A great news day for next season, I can't wait for October. The only question this raises is how may of the current recruits will be willing and able to wait another year to join the team. If Toews stays for 8, I would think that Trupp and Lapointe are the only two definite additions, and maybe Malone

There is still no agreement between the NHL and Russian Hockey so it all depends on how quickly they want to get their draft pick signed. I would bet on Kane being selected first overall too but don't count Turris out of the equation. Bucky will be sweating bullets if Turris gets selected by the LA Kings.

I have yet to see a plausible explanation of how anyone would replace Lee with someone better for next season. How many of you hockey intellects who want him gone can name teams that have won the national title with a D that is led primarily Sophomores and Freshmen. It doesn't happen because good D-men who can play mistake free hockey take longer to develop. While Lee didn't meet some of the lofty fan expectations, he is still a very good DI player and I look forward to bigger and better things from the whole Sioux D over the next two seasons.

I thought he was weighing his offers from Pepto-Bismol and Liquid Plumber

Oh right, with that little slice of lime.

If they did it would have been to spend the season in Binghampton and this coming year will likely be no different. Lee has talent but he needs to develop his physical play before attempting even the AHL.

I didn't see this posted elsewhere that Duncan and Toews are 1st Team All Americans and that Chorney made the 2nd Team. http://www.uscho.com/news/id,14227/HobeyWi...lAmericans.html

It has already made the Canadian sports news with a picture of Dunc at the podium. http://www.tsn.ca/ncaa/news_story/?ID=203049&hubname=

Fantastic news, way to go Ryan. I took alot of flak and ribbing from the trolls who frequent this site when last summer I predicted that Dunc would surpass 20 goals in a thread that discussed replacing the scoring from last seasons departures. Well Slappy, Bucky et al what do you think of the Sioux's mighty-mite now.

I'll bet this post sends all the Trolls running for their lives. For that migraine, put your bunny slippers on, pour yourself another one of your cool mint-juleps and flop back into your bean-bag chair.

Well as a consolation for his effort this season hopefully tomorrow places the Hobey firmly in Duncan's hands

Did Bertram tell everyone how to beat Schneider or did Schneider overdo it on the Tim Horton's Donuts.

My sincere condolences to fans of both Maine and MSU

You obviously didn't get to watch some of the Sioux lineup in WJC action. Cheers
