The club got a fresh dose of just that on Thursday afternoon, when it learned that all-star defenseman Kimmo Timonen would be lost indefinitely and likely for the entire series with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Timonen’s skills and leadership have been evident throughout the Flyers’ impressive playoff [...] 2008-05-09 15:28:15 PDT http://technorati.com/search/dannypress.org/2008/05/09/kimmo-is-finished/ 5 16 http://icingonthepond.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/from-slap-shot-to-gretzky/ http://icingonthepond.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/from-slap-shot-to-gretzky/ Fri, 09 May 2008 15:23:09 -0700 One of the more interesting Californians involved in pro hockey is Worchester Sharks coach Roy Sommer. The Oakland native played for 13 teams and has coached eight more (though three were the same AHL franchise, it just moved twice). And Sommer might be the only man to have played with both Wayne Gretzky and a cast member from the cult classic movie “Slap Shot”. Sommer had a cup of coffee with the Edmonton Oilers in 1980, about the time Gretzky, Paul Coffey, Mark Messier, Kevin Lowe, Glenn 2008-05-09 15:23:09 PDT http://technorati.com/search/icingonthepond.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/from-slap-shot-to-gretzky/ 0 0 http://www.nhlvids.com/howard-berger-leafs-looking-both-desperate-and-naive http://www.nhlvids.com/howard-berger-leafs-looking-both-desperate-and-naive Fri, 09 May 2008 14:53:16 -0700 PITTSBURGH (May 9) -- The Toronto Maple Leafs must believe they have a business plan in effect that will ultimately lure the NHL's equivalent of Moses to their general manager's chair. As we are discovering this week, however, the Leafs' plan is virtually unprecedented in the annals of big-league hockey.

This does not strike me as too much of a surprise as I suspected that Olie was wrestling with this decision throughout the course of this season. Tarik El-Bashir and others have made contact with Olie and he has expressed, in what seems to be a certain manner, that he has reached... 2008-05-09 14:44:12 PDT http://technorati.com/search/www.nhlvids.com/steven-hindle-kolzig-parts-ways 0 0 http://myworldtoday.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/paul-maurice-firing/ http://myworldtoday.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/paul-maurice-firing/ Fri, 09 May 2008 14:41:44 -0700 2008-05-09 14:41:44 PDT http://technorati.com/search/myworldtoday.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/paul-maurice-firing/ 1 1 http://topsportblogs.com/2008/05/09/the-ice-sheet-hockey-returns/ http://topsportblogs.com/2008/05/09/the-ice-sheet-hockey-returns/ Fri, 09 May 2008 14:19:35 -0700 The Ice Sheet: Hockey Returns Filed under: Dallas, Detroit, New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, General NHL, Rangers, Flyers, Penguins, Wings, Stars, Stanley Cup Each day from Monday to Saturday, The Ice Sheet will take a look at the biggest stories in the league that happened on the ice and elsewhere the night before.

Quenneville was 131-92-23 in Denver, but just 2-2 in playoff series after inheriting a team that was on the slide after a decade of dominance in the NHL. The Avs were swept out of the playoffs by the Detroit Red Wings last week, and general manager Francois Giguere faces a huge task this offseason, facing decisions on 13 players who will become unrestricted free agents if they're not re-signed. 2008-05-09 14:18:18 PDT http://technorati.com/search/msn.foxsports.com/nhl/story/8121582/Avs,-Quenneville-go-their-separate-ways?CMP=OTC-K9B140813162&ATT=142 229 5056 FOX Sports on MSN: NHL Sports News, Standings, Stats and more http://www.nhlvids.com/eklund-get-ready-for-the-best-series-of-the-playoffs-preview-and-picks http://www.nhlvids.com/eklund-get-ready-for-the-best-series-of-the-playoffs-preview-and-picks Fri, 09 May 2008 14:16:52 -0700 Last year this time I was sitting in an Ottawa restaurant with EJ Russel, Kevin Lee, and Katie Villeneuve getting ready for the Sens and Ottawa to launch into what was being viewed as a pivotal series for each franchise.

But it all seems different for some reason. Perhaps it is because I spen 2008-05-09 13:43:31 PDT http://technorati.com/search/wdennisgriffith.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/face-off/ 10 16 http://www.hookscenter.com/index.php/2008/05/09/red-wings-crush-the-stars-in-game-1-on-western-finals/ http://www.hookscenter.com/index.php/2008/05/09/red-wings-crush-the-stars-in-game-1-on-western-finals/ Fri, 09 May 2008 13:36:30 -0700 The Detroit Red Wings looked as sharp as they have throughout the playoffs — and perhaps in any postseason — jumping out to a big lead and beating the Dallas Stars 4-1 Thursday night in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals. Detroit played for the first time since sweeping the Colorado Avalanche a week earlier. “They were scared, just like the coaches, that they wouldn’t be ready,” Red Wings coach Mike Babcock said. “A little fear never hurt anybody.” Dallas, meanwhile, looked tired.

It's somewhat puzzling: are my usual prolific tendencies of the off-season hitting me a little bit early this year, or am I just trying to procrastinate on writing this German analysis of stage design in any way possible? Um, for the sake of the sanity of the people who pay for my education and also happen to read this blog, I'd rather not say. (Just kidding, Mom and Dad!

Quenneville in his time in Denver went 131-92-23 but was only 2-2 in playoff series. Quenneville had taken over the team which was slipping on it’s way down to the bottom of the league after nearly a decade at or near the top that saw them win two Stanley Cup Championships.
