All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

I could handle it if they traded one of the goals...I don't think it will happen though. Reiger has it in his head that the only way to win and keep it cheap is to have solid goaltending and a bunch of other players. Hence, his relutance to move one of the three.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
Quebec Drafted very well over the years. Here are the notables

24 G Stephane Fiset ...........so so Goalie.. in the Minorrs now
66 C Darin Kimble ........OK career
129 L Valeri Kamensky .......NJ still playing
213 D Alexei Gusarov .......good career
234 C Claude Lapointe ........Boston

148 R Andrei Kovalenko ...............Traded for Roy
158 D Alexander Karpovtsev
1991
1 C Eric Lindros ....bum...see trade below
24 L Rene Corbet
68 D Dave Karpa
103 L Bill Lindsay
156 D Janne Laukkanen
1992
4 L Todd Warriner
52 G Manny Fernandez
196 G Steve Passmore
220 C Anson Carter
1993
10 G Jocelyn Thibault .............traded for Roy
14 R Adam Deadmarsh
1994
12 D Wade Belak
72 C Chris Drury
87 R Milan Hejduk
Lindros brought them Peter Forsberg, Mike Ricci, Ron Hextall, Chris Simon, Kerry Huffman, Steve Duchesne, two first-round picks (one used to select Jocelyn Thibault and the other traded twice, eventually used by the Capitals to draft Nolan Baumgartner) and $15 million.
The Rangers were shut out at the last second by an arbritrator, when Quebec tried to pull out of the Philly deal. the Rangers benefited from not landing Lindros. Their deal with the Nordiques for Lindros would have included a goaltender (Mike Richter or John Vanbiesbrouck) a forward (Tony Amonte or Adam Graves), Alexei Kovalev, James Patrick and $20 million .
The Avalanche then stole Patrick Roy and Canadien's gritty captain Mike Keane to Colorado for young goalie Jocelyn Thibault and wingers Andrei Kovalenko and Martin Rucinsky.
