there's some nice restaurants in the scottsdale area

worse quality and more expensive than restaurants in downtown phoenix you say?

Edit: I love MAF the person and he put out some spectacular performances during the playoffs but with Murray waiting in the wings and all but guaranteed the starting spot (being Sully's golden child and all) he's better off leaving on a high note and granting the Pens all that sweet, sweet cap space (although I'm an expansion draft dunce so correct me if this assumption is wrong.)

How do you manage to make an egg white omelette that still comes out to 580 calories is what I want to know JFC.

It's not just the omelet, so it's probably counting the toast (and butter) on that. Also cheese is high in fat, even if it is sheep or goats (assuming 100g serving, feta has ~21 grams of fat).

All I saw about the new ones was that the replicas were actually going to be Fanatics branded and only the authentics would be Adidas. And yeah, the "retail authentic" Reebok jerseys were garbage. River City and I think Ice Jerseys specifically carried Canadian-made "on-ice authentic" in the more popular styles and teams for an extra charge. I seem to recall the Penguins team store mixing these styles at the same price point and no indication that either was any different. They're weird like that, their replica jerseys are a mix of screen-printed and fully-sewn numbers with no difference in price or stock, I went through a couple racks of Crosby jerseys to find a sewn one.

Yep. I'm reeeeeeeealy interested to see how the Fanatics replicas turn out. I'm guessing hot garbage you would expect from the sports section at Target or Walmart.

And I hear you on the mix and match in the team store. I found a canadian Authentic Malkin on the rack mixed in with the junk one time I was in there.

Esposito actually has his name on the cup once. He dressed as back-up for the 4 games of the finals in '69.


Whether you count that as 'winning a cup' is up to you.

Two straight Stanley Cups AND getting to shed an albatross contract (albeit one which contributed heavily to the second Cup win) is like a slam dunk followed by an and one.

what's with the big outcry over Doan being told "yeah dude sorry not bringing you back, you can have a front office job I guess" and that it was done at a restaurant.

Brian Leetch did far more for the Rangers than Doan ever did for his franchise and Sather traded his rear end without even telling him he was on the trading block.

Doan got paid his money for his services and he got let go in a pretty easy way. The franchise doesn't really owe him anything and they were still better about it than most places would be

hockey fans are stupid and believe that their management should be both detached and ruthless enough to make tough decisions, but they also need to be sentimental and do right by the guys who have been on the team for years or whatever.

i think it's mostly split between thinking the coyotes should have let him play on the 4th line forever until he decided to retire, and some sort of weird dislike of letting him know over a 10 minute meeting at a breakfast place.

i personally think it was fine, and it's not like they screwed him over by waiting until free agency was going on, and looking back he was basically on a show-me deal and he looked every part the 4th liner (at 4-5MM).

If they offered him a million for this year and he turned it down then his agent can just as easily say they were cheaping out on captain coyote, so it was probably going to look bad no matter what. and, are they really going to do all the pomp and circumstance and set up the date to retire his jersey when the way things went down it sounds like he's going to keep playing? Apparently they offered him a front office job but we don't know right now if they had to scramble after the fact when the coyotes beat reporters mentioned that on twitter or not.

His agent is saying what he's saying, but the worst complaint doan seems to have now is they let him got "corporately", which isn't much of doing him dirty like r lam or whoever wants to poo poo on the coyotes seems to think.

edit: ok, "r lam" says to run him over with a truck if he ever cares about what doan feels so replace that with tyler dellow

Pete Mrazek is 25 years old and not married, so he is obviously not mature enough to be a starting NHL goalie
