Answer 1

1) Sundin an overpaid Swede on the Leafs without a team. (I am a Canadiens fan who often roots for Finland, and as much as I despise the Leafs + Sweden, the ppl of T.O. deserve to have players who care in their performance.)

2) Not sure if these are rematches but they would be good fights: Begin can beat the daylights out of Downie and in the main event, Laraque knock out Derian Hatcher

3) Among the current ones? Iginla, Sakic, Koivu, Modano, Lidstrom

5) Tallahasee Florida "It will make for a good rivalry with the Lightning and Panthers." As said by Gary Bettman in the 2008-2009 Season Preview of the Hockey News

7) Tuomo .. you weren't too far off on the spelling. I used to chat online with his sister who is hotter than a sauna. :)

8) Saku Koivu

9) Coyotes

10) CentralHockeyLeague through connections should be able to go to about 20 or so NHL have yet to see the schedule + am 10 - 12 hrs from Dallas the closest NHL team (that's one-way, by the way)

3.Leafs, Stars, Wings, Penns, Ducks.

4.Tampa Bay

5.Some where in Canada

6.Devils Rangers or Bruins Habs

7.Jarkko

8. # 2 for alex O

9.Phoenix

10. about 25 like last year.

Answer 3

1 uh i guess players taking lower salaries and staying with teams that they give their word to (ahm Hossa)

2 any really

3 Sidney Crosby, and western conference captains

4 Washington

5 new orleans

6 dont know

7 Jarkko

8 Sidney Crosby

9 Tampa Bay

10 i live in Atlanta, but my favorite team is the Pens so im stuck. hopefully i can go to the Pen game but i go to the Gladiators (ECHL) games all the time

Answer 4

1.  Todd getting a chance to coach in San Jose

2.  None that I can think of

3.  Iginla, Lidstrom, Sakic, Pronger, Koivu

4.  Minnesota Wild

5.  Las Vegas

6.  I really think bad blood is a thing of the past,  at least on the ice.  There is too much camaraderie among today's players and with free agency, you never know when you are going to have a new teammate that was a former enemy.

7.  Jarko,  never much of a Tuomo fan myself

8.  Crosby

9.  Minnesota............and it will be a negative surprise

10.  Have yet to decide.  I'll be going to at least one game in Chicago, Ottawa, Toronto, Buffalo, and Montreal.

Answer 5

1. The fact that Mark Recchi is still playing....rumor is Pens tried to trade him for equipment and no team would even take that deal.

2. Kennedy vs Upshall, what an awesome fight that was.

3. Lindstrom, Sakic, Sundin, Alfredson, Lecavilier...(if Sakic and Sundin play next year).

4. Flames arent suppose to do that well but i think them and the Wild miss next year.

5. Vegas

6. Wings vs Avs....great rivalry...wish it woulda lived up to it this past year....Theo and Osgood shoulda had a fight like Roy vs Vernon.

7. Tuomo Ruutu

8. Iginla

9. Coyotes

10. 2-3, dont have season tickets and the Pens sell out quickly nowadays so its hard to get to a game.

Answer 6

1. None

2. IDK

3.Iidk

4. Red wings

5.None

6.Hawks and Wings

7. Jarkomo

8.Sum1 from the hawks coyotes or pens

9. Coyotes

10. 1

Answer 7

1.) Rolston came home!

2.) Laraque and Brashear would be a pretty nice one to see again.

3.) Current Captains:

- Lidstrom

- Sakic

- Iginla

- Sundin

- Koivu

4.) I have a feeling it's the Lightning.  They still have no defense, and Kolzig's getting old.  He's not gonna hold the fort.

5.) Winnipeg!

6.) Red Wings and Avs

7.) Tuomo's the better player for sure.  He had like double the points Jarkko did last season.  Plus Jarkko stinks.  He's a thug.

8.) Ovechkin

9.) Coyotes

10.) At least 10 like last year.

Answer 8

can answer only #4  PIT PENS

Answer 9

I think that it is Vinny signing the lifetime deal. It's nice to see some loyalty in professional sports these days.

I am always a fan of a good Brashear v. Laraque match, hopefully they man up.

1.) Sakic

2.) Lidstrom

3.) Iginla

4.) Morrow

5.) Brind'Amour

The Devils. Every year I bet on Brodeur finally aging, God has to hook me up sometime.

Seattle, now that they lost the Sonics.

Canadians and Leafs

Tuuomo

Alexander Ovechkin

Chicago Blackhawks

5-8

Answer 10

1. Tampa signing that kid, can't think of the name, the one who can't play because of heart problems.

2. Ruutu/Lucic

3. Lidstrom, Sakiv, Iginla, Koivu, Thornton

4. Tampa might..I don't expect them to miss it, but they better get some D-men.

5. Vegas XD

6. Habs/B's

7. Jarkko

8. Bergeron ;D lol.

9. Bruins ;D lol.

10. 3-4

Answer 11

1) I feel good that I don't have to watch Jagr cry anymore.

2) Tyler Kennedy vs. Scottie Upshall. Not a heavyweight fight...but a good bout between two feisty rivals.

3) Lidstrom, Crosby, Sakic (if he plays), Lecavalier, Thornton

4) I don't really know...possibly Minnesota?

5) Kansas City

6) Pittsburgh-Philly

7) Jarkko. I love watching his feisty play...and he's money on breakaways

8) Crosby if he stays healthy

9) Tampa Bay...but I don't know if they will be THAT much a surprise. I expect them to be a 6-8 seed in the playoffs

10) Got a 20 game plan...plus maybe a few road games

PS - I laughed really hard at the kid that said the pens will miss the playoffs. I haven't heard anything that brainless in a while
