Like that Evander Kane goal in the Thrashers game Friday night, for example. Yeah, that wasn’t one of Murph’s finer NHL moments.
So what’s this mean? It means that Cory’s got himself a ticket to Lowell in 24 hours, unless some team in desperate need of a defenseman picks him up. If he survives the waiver wire and hits Lowell, his contract is such that he wouldn’t have to pass through re-entry waivers to be called back up to the big club, so there’s hope for Murph yet.
The move does come as little shock, though, as Andy Greene has been playing redonkulous (yes, I went there) in the games that he’s been in. And, of course, Andy G...

Shanahan Should Be A Leaf
from Damien Cox of the Toronto Star,
If the Maple Leafs are smart, they might want to get to Brendan Shanahan before the NHL Players’ Association does.

Thanks to Lou, who had two extra tickets, me and my friend moved up to Section 94 - the purple seats in the lower bowl, 10 rows from the ice. Lou deftly knocked off a 22 ounce Heineken, a footlong hot dog with kraut, and a pretzel with mustard...
