They have to improve their shots on goal, and their offensive game.

On a different note, I'm probably the only one, but I'm glad that Eberle wasn't able to be emergency recalled from the WHL, because if he would have had success, they may have tried to keep him and he should spend this year tearing the WHL a new ***hole.

Quoted for Truth.

Jimmi, this thing we've been doing since the beginning of the season, this "agreeing", how long is it supposed to last?

Of course I did... I've had a couple of days of polls with no mistakes, its about time I make a boo boo like that. Oh well, guess we have to live with it. I wonder what I was trying to put in there before I messed that up.

Eberle: Well, I can't remember what the guy said to me first, but I just told him,'You're an awful hockey player.' And he said, 'I'm not the worst player in the league. There are definitely players that are worse than me.' I just had nothing to say back to that.
NHL-level puck skills, Germany-2 level trash talking ability.

Canwest: That's pretty cool. Who's your celebrity dream girl?

Eberle: Kristen Bell.

Canwest: And how would you show her a good time in your hometown of Regina?

Eberle: We could go quadding.

Eberle: On an off-day (during the world junior tournament) he told us that we needed to get some sleep and stay off our Sega Genesis.

Canwest: Does Pat know that Xbox exists?

Eberle: I'm not sure. He only calls it Sega Genesis, so . . .

that Sega Genesis line was hilarious. At least he didn't tell them to quit playing with their Wiis...

I selected healthy players because a lot of the others are taken care of by that.

Canwest: You've become quite familiar with Pat Quinn, considering that he coached the Canadian junior team and also guides the Edmonton Oilers (who drafted Eberle). Describe a memorable Quinn line.

Eberle: On an off-day (during the world junior tournament) he told us that we needed to get some sleep and stay off our Sega Genesis.

Canwest: Does Pat know that Xbox exists?

Eberle: I'm not sure. He only calls it Sega Genesis, so . . .


Awesome

Haha, sweet picture of Cogliano in the 'special delivery' article. That was a great goal for him, getting greasy right at the net

So Nylander clears waivers. It doesn't mean anything since they never officially assigned him to the A, but it shows no one would take him for free.

He's apparently reticent about going back to Europe on loan. I still think he could help us. Pisani + Nilsson ($4.5M) is a fair trade. If he bombs the rest of the year you just let him work out a loan in training camp when he has more time to move to Sweden/Russia.
