FTB - The Monday After A Long Weekend

by Chemmy on Jul 7, 2008 8:18 AM EDT

The summer is always really fun, until you end up on the wrong side of Canada Day/July 4th and realize your next holiday isn't for months and that it's going to be 30C and 105% humid out until October.

What better way to cool yourself down than by thinking about ice hockey? Oh right, free agency is dying down to a trickle. What's left to do other than twiddle our thumbs and read these great links:

Puck Daddy reports a rumor that the NHL will host another outdoor NHL game at Wrigley Field. Hawks-Wings? That could be pretty awesome.
just your usual general borschevsky, whose name is approximately four words too long, opines on the acquisition of Frogren and what that means for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
loser domi is correct that I once referred to her blog as Maple Leafs slasher fanfic.
The Leafs have resigned Matt Stajan, 2 years @ 1.75m per.
Time Magazine's Blog of the Year responds to some crummy blog in this exciting blog post!

Comment like mad, and feel free to leave links in the comments if you want them added to today's FTB.

'morning, Chemmy!

Sorry ‘bout the length of the blog name. What’s done is done. By the way, the Wolfman’s gonna get a little Wild: Minnesota Wild sign UFA forward Owen Nolan to a two-year, $5.5 million contract.
Cheers!

The contract seems high to me. Should be fun seeing Nolan and Darcy go head to head in the west.

long names

well, I used to do little cartoons (perhaps with the summer, I’ll do some more), so I also took a dig at “The wonderful world of Disney”. Perhaps I should change the name…

socks beware

MAAAAATT STAAJAAAN!! has been getting a little bit tougher each season I’ve seen him. He might even throw a sweater this year.

How thick of a sweater though? Woman’s cardigan or one of those irish woolen jobbies?

by LeafFanInVan on Jul 7, 2008 6:17 PM EDT up reply actions

sweater

I’m thinking he’ll start with a practice sweater and then work his way up through the season to a full on game jersey

sweater

See, being from the States, the first thing I think of when I hear “sweater” is something knit, or a cardigan. I’m thinking Stajan will throw something that like what Mr. ROgers would wear

by loser domi on Jul 7, 2008 6:43 PM EDT up reply actions

Mr Rogers’ sweater aint got nothin on one like that..

Warning – Look out for that guy, kids

Loser Domi, was that you?
