No argument from me, but I have no way to change it. I definitely prefer the alternate black jerseys they've had over the orange or white though.

Parise and Suter signing in Minny for 13 years each! Apparently they have a pro franchise there too - to go along with the high school and NCAA hockey the folks there like so much.

It's impossible to get a Wild ticket, they've sold out ever since the franchise opened shop. It's crazy that they got both guys, I thought for sure Detroit would sign Suter.

Nooooooooooo...no one in Philly wants them to keep Carle.

Updated to add: I'd like to congratulate the Tampa Bay Lightning on acquiring their new $33 million turnover machine.

Da End.
Isn't his wife Steve Nash's sister? I'm pretty sure that's the case.

They'd better seal the deal on this one. We need it.

This is a dilemma for Nashville. If the compensation is 4 1st round draft picks, they may want to take that and rebuild. However, will the fan base allow them to rebuild? Who is there left to go see? Not to mention Philly's picks are probably low first round picks.

And if they match, wouldn't that basically decimate Nashville?

Pretty much. The franchise was valued at $163 million, in 2011, per Forbes.
