He had that oily teardrop on his chest for a bit. They're all a little special....

Damn that's beautiful...

per Bob McKenzie

Nick Johnson (PHX), Rostislav Olesz (CHI) also on waivers today

Would Feaster pick up Johnson, UFA, 6'2", the odd fight, 27 years old, Calgary boy, potential 10 goal guy, 17gp 4g 2a

That "joke" hasn't run its course yet? It was mildly funny when the flames weren't dead last in the conference.

I still remember Gary Roberts saying hello to Eager. That was for sure special!!
