30-Sep-06 Montreal Canadiens traded Mike Ribeiro and a 6th round draft selection in 2008 to the Dallas Stars for Janne Niinimaa and a 5th round draft selection in 2007.

Thought it was a steal at the time and it is clear it was a steal now.

... so... dallas gets ribeiro & montreal basically got a 5th round pick? balls!!!

They have tons of what the Kings don't have, synergy. The team just plays so well together that even if they lose a couple players or they get a little older, they all have played together so long, they'll stay solid.

Dave Taylor karma?

They are playing well now, but my money is still on the Sharks and Ducks to finish above them in the Pacific Division.

The Stars will be battling for the 7th or 8th seed by the end of the season IMHO.

Good for them. Time to watch ANAL WHORES 5.

I actually was refering to the "experts" in the hockey media, but then again they did predict we were going to suck again and they nailed that right on the head.

They have a winning tradition. Just like Detroit. Any body they put in their line up ends up adapting to a winning style of play. Even their back up goalie plays better then our starters.
