As the NHL ad campaign says, "Could this be the year?" For the Predators there are three possible answers. First on a positive note, will this be [...] Mon, 06 Oct 2008 20:10:51 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/345912 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/345912 This series of Forechecker's Forecasts heads into truly uncharted waters today as we consider the prospects for Patric Hornqvist, the Swedish winger who appears to be the organization's next-best option for goal-scoring depth after the departure of Alexander Radulov. Since he's labored over in the Swedish Thu, 18 Sep 2008 20:28:31 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/334969 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/334969 So far this piece of news hasn't made it to the mainstream media yet, but it's HOT! (ok, our lame-ass Eklund impression ends there… what a turd). You can't be f-ing serious?! Ok, seriously, on Wednesday Paul Kelly, the NHLPA director, said that self-exiled-former-Nashville-Predator star Alexander R Fri, 12 Sep 2008 13:01:07 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/332021 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/332021 The Nashville Predators officially suspended Alexander Radulov a couple of days ago.  The suspension is indefinite and is unpaid. Duh. For those unfamiliar with the story, Radulov bolted from Nashville with a year left on his contract and joined the new KHL league in Russia. He wanted to be home, and t Thu, 04 Sep 2008 11:37:33 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/318426 http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article/318426 Is this the future of the NHL ? Well many things lead me to believe this might be the direction the NHL is heading . Is there an international Cup in our future of hockey ? Why are we promoting our league in Europe ? If the brain trust wants to broaden the horizons of our league lets play these games in our Country U.S.A., Today the N.Y. RANGERS announced that they will be playing there last two pre- season games in Switzerland , First game against SC BERN , the final pre-season game against Magnitogorsk of the KHL . Then to top it off The N.Y. RANGERS open up their season in Prague . The NHL is making a big mistake . I know that they don't feel that this sport can compete with Football or Basketball but , They shouldn't sell our sport overseas I mean if the games were being played in the U.S. this idea would be border line brilliant , but guess what ? there NOT, Although the NHL employs many European players the NHL is still OUR game (U.S./ Canada) It needs to be promoted better in the U.S. The Decision makers of the NHL in my view are committing HOCKEY HOMICIDE ! Killing this sport which has a lot to offer it's FANS . One day we may all see the NHL playing for the " International Cup " . Hopefully when that day comes we will still have enough talent remaining in the NHL to compete for it . Would the Hockey Gods Approve ? I sure DONT ! The only Cup I aprove of is LORD STANLEY'S .

Is This new Russian league trying to lure away our stars ? Is this new regime of Russian hockey headed by their biggest star JAROMIR JAGR gonna mean quality hockey in the U.S.A. is coming to an end ? Well I know we've reached an agreement with the KHL not to tamper with each others players who are contracted , BUT whats stopping them from grabbing up our players when their contracts have ended ? Nothing that's what and if you ask me i feel more and more players will defect as the Euro dollar becomes stronger and if the NHL has another lockout ,well that could mean the END ! This article is not meant to be bleak I would really like to know if anyone is feeling the same way ? Alex Radulov could be a sure sign of the Russians sticking it to us !
