This should go in the market place, but I think it would get more attention here. Ken Gernander, game worn, Binghamton Rangers, signed, St. Patrick's Day jersey. https://binghamton.craigslist.org/clt/d/binghamton-binghamton-rangers-ken/7101119441.html.

Watching FSN's unscripted with Wheeler and Okposo. Really a great interview, and Okposo hinted that if he could do it all over again, that he would have not left the way he did. Said he took a lot of heat from that decision for a while. I will admit that it took me years to let that go as a fan, but I have moved on.

Here is a small clip from the show with Wheeler talking about the Final 5 goal .

I'll say it a million times. The nicest guy that deserved an epic career, derailed by a constant stream of bad injuries.

At least he's already earned $21MM playing hockey so he should be set for life in whatever career.

The new version of the odd couple--

Quote:
Back in Minnesota, like most in the business world, he is working from home, over the phone, helping with retirement planning and investments. Schierhorn lives with Casey Mittelstadt and Tyler Sheehy, two former Gophers who still play hockey professionally. He said that the surest sign that it was the right time to hang up the goalie pads is the feeling — or lack thereof — he gets when his roommates head to the rink

Would love to see simulated NHL games on the PS or XBOX with rosters made up entirely of players from the same college.

And with Robson a Gophers roster would actually have a goalie. Mr. Green

He’s a Gopher so I tend to watch him more closely, but Brady Skjei is not having a good series so far. A couple of penalties, a little slow, gets pick pocketed for chances, and doesn’t seem to be in the right spot all the time.

I thought he looked a little lost out there on a couple of shifts, but when he does things right it hardly gets noticed. He can make a difficult escape from trouble or a nifty tape-to-tape pass look pretty easy when it's not.

Vegas is close to signing Pietrangelo, so it needs cap space and Schmitty is the one that being sent to Panthers :puke:

Well Schmidt was traded, but to the Canucks than Florida. I would say Vancouver got a steal on this one as Vegas needed to dump salary.

For those of you who get the Athletic, there is a great story about Nate Schmidt. They interview Guentzel, Budish, Haula, and many former pro teammates. They discuss his struggles his freshman year, the return of Guentzel, rooming with Haula, Bjugstad and Budish, and many other Schmidtisms. Funny read with many "f" bombs

I would have never guessed that after his career at Minnesota that Justin .6 Holl would have a substantial NHL career. He has been a solid, stay at home defenseman for Toronto. You could argue that only Brady Skjei from that 2013-14 team has done better in the NHL. Reilly still has a chance to be ok. Boyd, Rau, Fasching, Kloos, Bischoff and Lettieri really have not done much.

Holl is like a utility infielder. I would not have predicted he'd stay up in the NHL, but it's good to see him make a career of it.

Reilly will be remembered as another dominant college player that didn't translate to the NHL. He's missing something.
