Congratulations to Anaheim and ...

Congratulations to the new Stanley cup Champions, the Anaheim Ducks, they deserved it. The brothers Niedermeyer now join a select group of brothers who have won the Stanley cup. The Richard brothers, the Hull's , the Mahovlich's and the Sutter's, i'm sure there is more, sorry to those not named.

The Ottawa Senators have nothing to be ashamed of, in an era where parity is at it's peak, it's hard to get thru an 82 game schedule, then play fifteen or sixteen games just to get to the final. Hats off to them, and next year you will be better and have the experience under your belt.

Next for the NHL, is the regular season awards and then preparing for the future, with the entry draft in Colombus on June 23rd and 24th.

July 1st is the annual UFA feeding frenzy, where some Gm's look like Einstein, but at mid-season, look like idiots, because they forgot to read the fine print in the CBA, some people just never learn.

Islanders to buy out Yashin

Islanders owner, Charles Wang finally admits that it was a mistake to have given Alexei Yashin that enourmous contract when ''Mad'' Mike Milbury made the trade with the Ottawa Senators back in 2001.
