Toronto is 0-6-1. Jackets 5-1. Think Rick Nash is regretting signing with the Jackets right about now?
Meant to comment about this a while ago... but anyone else notice that the NHL Network's "On The Fly" show has upgraded from their set that was straight out of Fast Times at Ridgemont High to a more professional looking one this season? This was long overdue.
Anthony has a new CBJ blog I wanted to point out. It's called Tea With Ms. McGill which is an obscure hockey movie reference. If you get a chance, give it a look here.
Have you see that ESPN.com will now have a Thusday night online "game of the week"? They are even using the CoverItLive software.
Gotta wonder how bad ESPN wants back in the NHL television picture. I may be in the minority but I'm perfectly happy with Versus and haven't forgotten the days when ESPN would use the NHL to wipe their feet with.
That said if Comcast can close the deal with NBC Universe Versus will become a major player overnight. That would be a tremendous boost to the NHL.
Ohio State Men's hockey scored a must have win on Friday night versus #3 ranked Denver with a 4-0 shutout. My boy Dalpe finally got on the scoreboard and sophmore goalie Cal Heeter stopped 39 shots to preserve the shutout.
This win could very well be looked back upon a season saver for this squad.
They hit the road next week with back to back games against Lake Superior State.
The Crunch went 1-0-1 this weekend.
They beat Norfolk on Friday by a final of 5-4. Mayorov, Aulin, Picard, Sestito & Legein with goals. Mayorov and Legein also had helpers. LaCosta with the win.
On Saturday they lost in a shootout 4-3. Sigalet, Sestito & MacKenzie with the goals. Clitsome with two helpers and LaCosta with the SO loss.
Through 6 games the Crunch are 2-3-1 for 5 points and 6th in the East division.
So much for my thoughts about the Jackets trading for Mike Van Ryn. It was reported last week that he is out for the season.
Now that Mike Van Ryn’s season is officially over, the hard-luck defenceman hopes to be able to salvage his NHL career.
Van Ryn said today that he will go under the knife next week at the Fowler Kennedy Sports Medicine Clinic in his home town of London, Ont. to have osteotomy surgery on his left knee.
In the final year of his contract with the Leafs, Van Ryn will have to have a lengthy rehab of at least six months before he even can consider a comeback.
“You are hoping that a team will give you a shot, but that’s the tough part of the decision, not knowing the future,” Van Ryn said this morning as his teammates practised behind him at the Mastercard Centre for Hockey Excellence.
“I realize the spot I’m in is tough. You want to play, but at the same time, it’s also about quality of life down the road. (Walking) up stairs are starting to get tough.”
Van Ryn's a good player when healthy. What a shame he can't manage to stay that way. Gotta think Howson knew about this thus scratched his name off the list of possibles. Nice to have a GM who does his homework.

Camcast needs to square with DirecTV so we can have Versus back before they'll be a major player. I don't see where ESPN has been pulled from any national TV lineups.
If that NBC deal would go through it'd be interesting to see if they'd pimp Versus the way ABC pimps ESPN.
Way back when the NHL moved to OLN, now Versus, I remember reading how Comcast wanted to build the network to challenge ESPN. Hence, the name change to Vs. It'd be nice to see that finally happen with NBC behind them using the NHL as the cornerstone. The Winter Classic has shown NBC NHL hockey is marketable to a wider audience.
