Feeling The Playoff Itch? I'll Fetch The Ointment.

Geez, I don't know...maybe we could put White in goal?

To hell with Zednik, TSM gives you your Masterson winner this year: Ian White. Also, it's not just Wilson that has to put up with stupid questions.
Featuring the only the one man I wanted above OLAS in the draft, T.O. Sports reports on the Marlies falling to Nikita Filatov.
General Borschevsky has a run down of the Leafs trying to get to 100 assists this season.
'Sup, ladies? Another round of Vintage Leafs.
Is the NHL more physical than the NFL?
McErlain at the Fanhouse and the cruel month of March.
Those of you believers in the doomed fallacy that Nash will one day be a Leaf should cover your eyes now - T.J. Oshie is on the prowl.

God I wish Capitals would get Filatov. Or Toronto in same package with Nash…
And if Bykov doesn’t pick him into the Worlds I’m gonna be pissed

Oh, boo hoo, I have a little cut on my neck.

Ian White had to fight his way out of Ron Wilson’s dog house!

Bergeron only had a terrible concussion that kept him out all year and then went and tried to check a guy with his head (FOOL!) and got another one. And game back and is kinda kickass.

Chances of getting him look like this – 0.

Anyone know who the Blues’ nominee for Masterton is? I think it should be Carlo – leads St. Louis defenceman in scoring and might help them into a playoff spot.

Very sad news coming shortly at DGB… fake Brian Burke is going to his final resting place.

Brian Burke called me last night and told me he was sending his goons after me. I just laughed when he mentioned Hollweg and Deveaux, but when he got to Oreskovic I figured I’d better do what he says.

Actually, the whole thing is just getting to be more trouble than it’s worth. I figure now is as good a time as any to go out gracefully.

No

We won’t let you. It’s not fair to the over 1,500 followers.

Actually, better to bow out now before Burke goes nuclear and sends Schenn over.

He may have already sent Schenn back in time to kill me before I was born.

Wait until this time next year, when DGB.com has been forgotten and I’m signing fake Brian Burke autographs at card shows.

I remember hearing

at the beginning of the year that T.J. Oshie was the lowest ranked player by EA Sports in NHL 09 and that he took it personally and decided that he’d show them how much higher his ranking should be….

That second hit is incredible.
