Hockey Talk And Whispers
from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,
- Dale Tallon’s status as executive of the year has taken a hit after a disastrous season in Florida. The catchy phrase “Red Rising” should be changed to “Seeing Red” after an embarrassing year. Signing winger Alexei Kovalev was the first mistake and veteran defenceman Ed Jovanovski didn’t work, either. Then, there was the whole...
What is Wrong With the Florida Panthers?
The Florida Panthers opened their 2012-13 season by celebrating raising their new Southeast Division championship banner and beating the Carolina Hurricanes 5-1.

The exact opposite has occurred as the Panthers have been outscored by 18 goals on a 5...

Dan Spiegel: Mikael Samuelsson: Should He Stay Or Should He Go?
Ask Marcel Goc and Sean Bergenheim that question, and their answer would be a resounding "stay!"
After the top line of Versteeg-Weiss-Fleischmann cooled down after their torrid start, it was the Bergenheim-Goc-Samuelsson line that held the fort for much of the second half of the season.
Samuelsson, 35, is a UFA and both sides have shown mutual interest in him...

Last spring it was Sean Bergenheim and Joel Ward who stepped up, and they were paid nicely for their breakout postseason. This year it is two oft-criticized forwards and two veterans who are seeing their summer price tag rise.Dustin Penner, LAPenner will always be best known for his...

Unfortunately, not every game can be played in the Prudential Center so the Panthers looked for a strong...
The message is a mess
“This has spiraled from out of control to total chaos. Do we really need a player to die on the ice for this insanity to stop?”
—NHL player agent Allan Walsh’s Tweet after Raffi Torres’ hit on Marian Hossa
Forget for a moment that there is no way the NHL is going to win the public relations battle stemming from what we have seen thus far in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Hockey’s...

Dee Karl: Isles in Sunrise 1-0 end of 1st
If it is to be the curse of the ex-NYIslanders, it will be Sean Bergenheim that will win it for the Panthers.
The Isles gave up the first goal after only about six minutes of the first due to a poor play by P.A.Parenteau. I hope his agent remembers that when he's tryint to negotiate a big deal.
The Isles have been called for a few penalties so far, the most annoying of...
