The 37 players invited to the national jr. team camp should be released any minute, i guess teams can now have 3 goalies assigned to their roster now, still a 20 skater limit.

RNH playing for Canada might be a little unfair but we always lose because of our goalies the last 3 years. Gonna be awesome to see a lot of the prospects in action though. The defense-core looks as strong as it's ever been. I hope Morgan Rielly makes it, dudes on the local radio were raving about him when he played a junior game here in Calgary.
Team Canada has some good looking blue liners this year. Rielly, Reinhart, Dougie Hamilton and Mathew Dumba are probably the top 4 guys I would expect to make the roster for the World Junior tournament. With Nugent-Hopkins, Huberdeau, Jenner, Scheifele, Strome and MacKinnon up front, the forward lines looks pretty solid I think, those guys are going to be locks for sure barring any injuries.
Looking forward to seeing us defending the WJC.
NHL won't let Molson (MTL) , Dolan (NYR), Leiweke (LA) into today's meeting. Dolan wrote a letter to other owners demanding Bettman firing, so Bettman banned him.
If not, more, lol.
For anyone wondering:
Jonathan Toews, Jamal Mayers, Craig Adams, David Backes, Michael Cammalleri, Sidney Crosby, B.J. Crombeen, Mathieu Darche, Shane Doan, Ron Hainsey, Shawn Horcoff, Manny Malhotra, Andy McDonald, Ryan Miller, George Parros, Brad Richards, Martin St. Louis and Kevin Westgarth will be in the meeting.

I really hope that they do something that gets a season underway, but honestly I've given up on them. Both sides can fuck themselves as far as I'm concerned.
That being said, if they announce a deal I'll go to / watch every Pens game that I can. Bettman and Fehr both need fired and their asses kicked.
Illitch's folks met with the city today to pitch a new entertainment district which would house the Wings with a mix of private and public funding.

Nope! God dammit greedy ass NHLPA

Don't know if this was already posted but this is forbes valuation list of NHL teams. Pretty interesting and gives some insight into the financial state of some teams. Can click on the team name for a more detailed breakdown
1) Review the terms lockout and strike. Then see which one fits the situation
2) Review all of the recent information (like that in the post right below yours) showing that the NHL has record profits and everything is growing
3) Review the current state of negotiations where the NHLPA is actually the side wanting more revenue sharing which will help those dying franchises that are the cause of the lockout. Also take note that the players gave up literally billions last lockout and are being asked to give up literally billions again as the owners are making record profit.
4) Remember that it is the OWNERS that write the contracts given to the PLAYERS, not the other way around. Any financial shortcomings that any owner is facing is thanks to their own reckless spending and the reckless spending of owners around the league causing contract inflation.

Meetings are 5 hours deep now, but after their over my guess is the presser will say "constructive" "sides still far apart" and imply that fans can "go fuck themselves."
