Isles stoppen die Pens und gewinnen 6-5. Somit die erste Niederlage für die Pens nach regular time in den letzten 16 Spielen.

Die Oilers geben es wohl auf.

Oilers trade defenceman Bergeron

Marc-Andre Bergeron, 3rd-rounder in 2008 --> Islanders

Denis Grebeshkov --> Oilers

Grebeshkov war ein 1st-round-pick 2002, spielte aber dieses Jahr in Russland. Für die restliche Saison bedeutet es also ein reines Verlustgeschäft für die Oilers - da hat jemand wohl die Hoffnung auf die Playoffs aufgegeben.

Und sie müssen verdammt viel von Grebeshkov halten, denn für einen jungen Verteidiger, der in Russland spielt, war er ganz schön teuer...

Who the fuck is Grebeschkow? Aber der Trade hat auch Positives: Begeron ist weg.

Kleiner Verletzungsüberblick:

Cristobal Huet fällt mit einem Achillessehnenabriss für die restliche Saison aus, er wird heute operiert.

Ales Kotalik fällt mit einer Knieverletzung 5-6 Wochen aus.

Brendan Shanahan wurde gestern aus dem Krankenhaus entlassen, man hat keinen genauen Zeitplan für sein Comeback, da man erst eine weitere Untersuchung beim Neurologen abwarten will.

Mike Knuble fällt mit einem Augenhöhlenknochenbruch und Schnittwunden im Gesicht ebenfalls für unbestimmte Zeit aus.

Fernando Pisani wurde von den Oilers rückwirkend IR gesetzt, er fällt mit post-concussion-syndroms ebenfalls für eine unbestimmte Zeit aus.

Darcy Tucker wird nach seinem Fußbruch höchstwahrscheinlich am 27.2 gegen die Sabres sein Comeback geben.

Todd Marchant wird nach einer Unterleibsverletzung heute einer MRI unterzogen.

LECK MICH DOCH AM ARSCH!

Bissl nachgelesen .. anscheinend besteht doch noch Hoffnung:

It looks like it wasn't as bad as first thought for Huet and he might be able to play in the playoffs if we make it.

Eineinhalb quasi ... da hatte ich wohl wirklich unglaubliches Glück und Bam unglaubliches Pech ...

wieder ein Sieg von Tampa

im SO gegen Florida

[Bam_Margera]

So, die Play-Off sind mMn für die Oilers passé. Dass Kevin Lowe dies bereits früher dachte, war durch den Bergeron-Trade ersichtlich.

Aber jetzt... 7 Verlustpunkte hinter dem 8. Platz , aber ich lase mich natürlich gerne überraschen.

Zum Spiel gg. Ottawa: Zumindest einen Punkte geholt und am Ende gut zurückgekämpft, und schön, dass der recalledte Gilbert das Ausgleichstor 20 Sekunde vor Schluss schießt Shootout, ist halt meistens eine Glückssache.

Edith: Finde ich eigentlich sehr interessant, auch wenn sein weiterer Weg nicht die Statistiken eines Gretzky schlagen wird.

Sidney Crosby is tearing up the NHL scoring race with a healthy lead for the Art Ross Trophy. See how the phenom's torrid pace compares to that of another superstar who had similar numbers when he was 19.

Sidney Crosby (2006-07):

56 GP, 26 G, 69 A, 95 PTS

Sidney Crosby (On Pace):

79 GP, 37 G, 97 A, 134 PTS

Wayne Gretzky (1979-80):

79 GP, 51 G, 86 A, 137 PTS

NAPLES, Fla. (CP) - The NHL's 30 general managers took time away from trade discussions Tuesday to officially recommend changing the instigator suspension rule for next season.

Concerned that skilled players, notably Sidney Crosby, are not getting the protection they should, the league's GMs agreed that a player shouldn't receive a two-game suspension until he has accumulated five instigating penalties. Under the current rules, a player receives the suspension after three instigating infractions.

The NHL's competition committee, which comprises players and GMs, and the board of governors need to approve the change this spring.

NHL commissioner Gary Bettman says he isn't concerned about the optics of the rule change, which would essentially allowing tough guys to drop the gloves more often without fear of suspension.

"Among other things, it means a skilled player doesn't have to fight," Bettman said after Day 2 of the GM meetings wrapped up. "This wouldn't be the first time that we adjusted this. You fine-tune it, and if you need to adjust it again, you do."

Still, the talk comes a week or so after The Globe and Mail ran an editorial asking the NHL to ban fighting.

Ben Eager of the Philadelphia Flyers is the only player to have earned the two-game suspension so far this season for earning three instigators.

While trade talk continued to heat up as GMs spent more time together at a posh resort, other recommendations were also made Tuesday. They also need rubber-stamping from the competition committee and board of governors, who are scheduled to meet in June.

- Video replay: Starting next season referees could have a direct phone line to the war room at the league's head office in Toronto, as well as have TV monitors in the penalty box to watch replays. Currently referees only have direct communication with the video goal review official in the arena;

- Going to a one-minute penalty in overtime instead of traditional two minutes: The GMs agreed it's too soon to try this in the NHL next season but perhaps can be tried out in rookie tournaments next fall and/or possibly in the AHL.

One of the more interesting topics of discussion - going to three points for a regulation-time victory - was pushed back to Wednesday, the final day of meetings.

In the meantime, GMs used the rest of their downtime to continue trade talks. Detroit Red Wings GM Ken Holland was seen having a quiet moment with St. Louis Blues GM Larry Pleau. The speculation is that Blues wingers Keith Tkachuk and Bill Guerin - both unrestricted free agents July 1 - are available.

Without naming names, Holland said he wasn't close on any front.

"The prices are a bit high right now," Holland said. "I've done a lot of talking, but nothing yet."

Toronto Maple Leafs GM John Ferguson, who is also looking to add a forward, agreed.

"I would say the prices are very high," he said.

The Wings have been linked to Guerin, as have Anaheim, San Jose and Toronto. Right now the price is believed to be at least a first-round draft pick.

Like the Blues, the Florida Panthers will also be sellers. Head coach and GM Jacques Martin sounded like he would prefer to wait until the 11th hour before possibly dealing free-agents-to-be Gary Roberts, Martin Gelinas, Jozef Stumpel, Ed Belfour, Ville Peltonen and Todd Bertuzzi.

The trade deadline is next Tuesday at 3 p.m. ET.

"Our priority is to get into the playoffs," said Martin, still hopeful despite being nine points back before Tuesday's games. "I think probably depending on how we do this week is probably crucial. But in the meantime there is interest in certain of our people and we're investigating.

"If we can get something that's going to help our organization we will. If not we like the people that we have."

Roberts has a no-trade clause and has indicated that if the Panthers want to deal him, he'd like to go to Toronto or Ottawa. But don't count out Buffalo if neither Ontario team makes a pitch.

"Knowing Gary for a long time I think we have a good relationship and a certain understanding of where we're going," said Martin.

First-round picks were sacrificed in the Peter Forsberg and Ladislav Nagy deals this month but Martin would prefer prospects.

"I feel it's not draft picks it's somebody else, maybe a younger player that will be able to help our organization for many years," he said.

The Eastern Conference-leading Buffalo Sabres are riddled with injuries. Forwards Maxim Afinogenov, Tim Connolly, Ales Kotalik and Jiri Novotny and defenceman Jaroslav Spacek are among the wounded, so GM Darcy Regier may have to reconsider his preference not to move backup goalie Martin Biron. He's an unrestricted free agent as of July 1.

The Sabres wanted to keep Biron as insurance to starter Ryan Miller but the US$2.1 million Biron would open up in cap space if he were to be traded might be too valuable to Regier if he needs to bolster his forward group due to the injuries. The Sabres' payroll is right at the $44-million cap limit right now.

"The stance on Marty is more about choice," said Regier. "Our flexibility is so limited that it's really depth choices. It's where do you want to buy your insurance? Do you want to have it in your goalies? Do you want to have an extra defenceman? Do you want to have an extra forward? You can't have all three. Under the old system, you could have all three."

na wenigsten, da eine kleine verbesserung.

bei den OT-Strafen müsste man auch noch aushandeln, was mit strafen aus dem dritten drittel, die in die OT mitgenommen werden passiert.

Da wächst ja anscheinend die nächste "Diva" heran was man so immer über ihn lesen kann

lt. einiger Poster in den HFBoards wurde Grabner wohl gedraftet um über kurz oder lang auf einer Linie mit den Sedins zu spielen...
