You probably haven't been watching, but he got moved to the Boston Bruins at the deadline. They are trying to win another stanley cup, and he seems to be playing well for them. The Avs need leadership and someone to play on the bottom pair and PK to replace O'Brien.
Yes, I know where he went, hence the "fell out of favor with the Minnesota Wylde" remark.
The Bruins won a Stanley Cup with Tomas freakin' Kaberle going through the motions on their roster last year. A team with Timmy Thomas and Zdeno Chara would make Chris McAllister look like a viable NHL defenseman. Greg Zanon is Scott Hannan-lite. I don't want guys who "seem" to be playing well for them. I want guys who actually do play well.
We have a plethora of bottom-pairing defensemen. In fact that was the problem with SOB--he was a bottom pairing defenseman playing top-pairing minutes for most of the time following Quincey's departure. We don't need more bottom pairing defensemen--we need legit top-4 guys.

Wrong thread for this, but we also need a bottom pairing defenseman. Zanon would be a better add than O'Brien for our bottom pairing with Wilson. We also need a top 4 puck mover.
I didn't think that was very bad, a 2-min charge is the max for that hit.
He didn't leave his feet (Blues announcers were completely off there) and he hit McDonald from the front. McDonald just had his head down.
And I would never had thought the Blues would embellish this much. Nichol and McDonald flopping on the ice.
Aww, Bogus call on Sharks, well surprise surprise.
Sharks should just get off the ice. Not only did they lose the game but they're also getting their ass kicked at the end of the game now. Blues just pounding them.
I'm guessing this win means that Stewart will sit next game as well.

Could end up being bad for the Blues. Most of the Sharks big heavies weren't out there. With both teams having so many big guys on their rosters things could get ugly quick.
Hahaha, Toews stops to make sure he doesn't hit Smith, Smith shoves him, Toews gets a penalty for goalie interference.
The reffing has been odd in many games. Tonnes of penalties in some games and few in others. Calling one thing and ignoring an identical thing a few minutes later. Calling penalties in the first period only to decide to let the teams 'decide the winner' in the third and call nothing.
