> He won’t be here for ice time. Just the presence of him on the bench might help Malkin and Crosby from getting the shit beat out of them game after game. If you notice, both of them are so beat up now their game is way off. I think he is a good catch as long as they use him. If any of you guys remember when Caufield hit the ice, he wasn’t there for his hockey skills.

This isn’t the old NHL though. It’s a far different game now.

Laraque is no bum. He is talented. He’s not Rick Tocchet talented, but he’s no Tie Domi or Cory Cross either. I like that pickup. It really really looks like they are building for a playoff run the next two years.

There has to be at least one more trade in the works though. Armstrong, Ekman, or Malone are my 3 guesses. They have to offload another forward here before the end of the day.
