Jonas Gustavsson will be an unrestricted free agent at year’s end, and all signs are pointing to the Leafs giving the Monster the rest of the season to prove himself. James Reimer has yet to see the ice under new head coach Randy Carlyle, and with Gustavsson starting today in Washington, he will have twice . . . → Read More: The Monster Audition There’s 1:00 left in the Leafs game against the Penguins. Their season is effectively over, as they would have to go on a very un-Toronto-like run to qualify for postseason play. Naturally, a promising looking rush goes offside at the Penguins blue-line. Game over, Leafs lose. Again. This will mark the 7th consecutive year that . . . → Read More: The Retchedness Word is breaking that Ron Wilson is out as the head coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs. It’s about damn time. Wilson was the least likeable coach that I can remember. He was horrible with the media, and it’s obvious from where I’m sitting that his personality was at odds with that of his team. . . . → Read More: Wilson on the Outs The Oilers continued the league-wide initiative to ensure I won’t miss any interesting hockey happenings while at work on Monday by agreeing on a new contract with forward Ales Hemsky.

If you’re keeping score, that’s a $4.75M cap hit for 4 years starting next season. The Hurricanes seem to like Ruutu, but frankly he . . . → Read More: Tuomo Ruutu, $19M Dollar Man I haven’t heard it yet, but apparently Damien Cox made some rather interesting comments (surely a first) on Prime Time Sports at some point last week. His claim boils down to the Vancouver Canucks being so far above the rest of the Canadian NHL clubs that you couldn’t assemble a team from the other 6 . . . → Read More: Thought Experiment I haven’t heard it yet, but apparently Damien Cox made some rather interesting comments (surely a first) on Prime Time Sports at some point last week.
