Never underestimate the scoring force of the almighty one named Scott Stevens, who is destined to become the greatest Power on Earth.

As long as it doesn't involve tequila shots.

You know what they say.
Beer before liquor, never sicker.
Liquor before beer, never fear.
In other words, the HOS is HOSED tonight!

The HOS must be preparing for St. Patty's Day. The Kovy appreciates your allegiance with current Avatar and images.

HOS you going to the Saint Patty's day parade tommorow morning? I figure I would let my 50% Irish side drag me on down to Denver downtown.

Damn alcoholics! I will be missing all the St. Pat's festivities this year as I will be at the PAC, taking my Mom to see The Chieftains. I am going to miss the end of the game! Tip back a few and it should be fun.
Thanks Lurker

And the simple truth is this -- before and after Joe Nieuwendyk, this franchise has not been as good. Yes the same could be said for others, but Nieuwendyk's effect on his team, on his team's best players, on the fans and in the community can only be compared to, well, what Jarome Iginla is doing now in Calgary.

That Isles/Rags game on Monday is going to be great, they're gonna finish 'em off for good just like that Turgeon game in 93, history repeating itself 
if NYI & Montreal win tonight, you could probably make a strong case for it being over already.

Backs to the walls, for sure.
Wonder if Carter is pining for Edmonton; he sure didn't seem happy to be traded in that one interview clip I saw of him.

It never seems to change with this team. No matter who wears the jersey and no matter how much $$$ they spend, it's the same old story.
It's difficult to put into words how I feel.
I always wonder why they can't just start from scratch and rebuild. Cut away some of the dead weight like Lindros, etc.
The Islander game will probably mean little Monday (especially if they beat Ottawa tonight). I am already resolved to the fact it will be another postseason miss.
When you overturn your roster as much as they do, it shouldn't be shocking that they don't have the chemistry to have Team Success.
Throwing cash around doesn't work unless you have a solid foundation meaning players who are in the organization for the long haul and know what's expected.
Just look around the league. Detroit does it wisely. They have 10-11 players who were drafted and they add the guys to that longevity they already have there.
It all starts with Yzerman, Fedorov and Lidstrom. They also draft well as evidenced by the promise that Datsyuk and Zetterberg have. Two guys who have the potential to be stars.
Detroit's also made wise deals for grinders like Draper and Maltby and they have become mainstays.
In order for a team to have success, there has to be that consistency in keeping some of your own players. When you look at the team that is the biggest culprit for today's NHL problems, they don't have that. Only Leetch, Richter (who is probably finished), Purinton and Lundmark are draft picks.
Leetch and Richter are the only guys who stayed since '94. Messier left and then cameback. Kovalev was a Pen and has stopped being the player he was in Pittsburgh. Lost in the shuffle just like most guys.
I hope one day Glen Sather gets fired and Cablevision sells the team. I just don't see them ever having any kind of success until they get an ownership that knows how to win championships.
