  1. After a Summer of rest, #Tim Thomas should be ready for another NHL team. How about #Detroit and a return to his home state.
  2. The #Tim Thomas decision to bolt the #Bruins signifies that the Bs are on a continuing decline. #Rask can't wear Timmy's pads.
  3. @drwrinkles 502 straight games at highest level WITHOUT a mask with Chi team that never played defense.
  4. @oldpappy59 Red Kelly was the first-best two-way defenseman of post-World War II NHL with Detroit.
  5. @Drtywater Bourque never should have walked out on the Bruins for the Avs. A wrong move then and now.
  6. @vicvenasky Love 'em both. Different eras; different styles. Nobody can top Potvin's captaining four straight Cups, 19 straight playoff wins
  7. Nice to see Gary Bettman and Don Fehr in the same room and smiling. Independently. Means nothing though when it comes to the CBA deal.
  8. Check MSG.com for my preview of Game 2 at Newark. What #Devils need to win.
  9. Henrik Talliner, Adam Larsson or both on Saturday? Tough call -- and who does Peter DeBoer rest? A #Devils quandary.
  10. @MikeRappaport92 Glenn Hall.
  11. @CalebRapoport Very, very good idea.
  12. @StuDolgon Ching Johnson was the #Rangers answer to Eddie Shore. Ching won a pair of Cups -- in 1928 and 1933.
  13. #Zach Parise and #Ilya Kovalchuk MUST score if #Devils are going to be a threat. May be time for #Henrik Tallinder's return to lineup.
  14. All-time Dmen start with Eddie Shore, then next generation, Doug Harvey, to Bobby Orr, Brad Park, Denis Potvin, Larry Robinson, to some.
  15. Nik Lidstrom goes down as the best defenseman of our generation; and that's saying a lot. Since styles keep changing, can't pick all-timer.
  16. I'm amazed -- and very pleased -- with the variety of responses to my query as to whether "fatigue" torpedoed Rangers. Or run out of gas?
  17. @TomCrincs I'm getting many, MANY different views on this subject and your reply is as fair and honest as any. Kudos to you!
  18. @escape28 Good point.
  19. @BJaffe @MSGNetworks Hey, The Maven ALWAYS is honored working with Billy Jaffe, who actually discovered me one morning in Atlanta. Remember?
  20. @bigmannyr Have you forgotten Gaborik and Richards and Callahan; or am I sadly mistaken?
