I could see the Avs trying to get rid of players. Turgeon is the only one that comes to mind as a UFA next year, but other potentials include Marek Svatos and Milan Hejduk, if they can get something in return, and - in Hejduk's case - if they can get someone to take on his contract. Otherwise, I don...

Is this considered "feeding the trolls?" Ah well, I'll play along. You want to know how the Avs are doing? All you really need to do is look at the standings. They currently sit in 4th place in the Northwest, and currently are out of the playoffs and this could easily be where they end up ...

Hmmm, point taken, but was it Lincoln's lifelong ambition to be POTUS?

Seems like today politicians are cultivated into what they are, and are less about the good of the country than they are about getting and staying elected and about getting the $$$$ and power associated with an elected office.

They signed Quennville right before the strike, so it's not like he didn't know what kind of talent he was going to have when they started playing again. Yes, but they didn't have a cap system yet.

And how long does Quennville keep his job? At least 2 more seasons. He's got to have a shot at righting the ship. Next year Brisebois will be gone, so will Turgeon.

To call him washed up would imply that he was good to begin with. I guess he did get a Vezina, but God only knows how. That season is looking more and more like his career year; a fluke, if you will. In Theodore's defense, Quenneville is very impatient with his goaltenders. It's one of the things I ...
