We asked on Twitter how much leeway President Obama should be given in selecting his Cabinet. Comment are edited for clarity and grammar:
This is Obama's administration after all. It's already a big step that he has chosen a Republican as secretary of Defense. This never happens.
— @IvetaCherneva
I want the vetting process to be open and honest on all sides, not just a badgering of the person up for position by war-hawk heretics.
— @KountyKobbler
Obama rushed his decision. There are more qualified personnel out there. Chuck Hagel, really ?
— @Sbbny1718
I don't think he should get appointed. My main objection is that he changed nearly all his views while being questioned.
— @BaatzJane
Obama should be given all reasonable leeway like other presidents. I admire Hagel. I deplore what he is being subjected to.
— @SandyTomich
Finally someone who can think, not a mainstream follower. Good for the USA.
— @pijaz
How can Hagel be so clueless and Democrats say he can have the job? My son and many others' lives depend on this.

James Robinson, Exhibition Curator
Next month, over 120 sacred relics (the physical remains or belongings of saints) will begin arriving at the British Museum from across Europe and the USA for the forthcoming exhibition Treasures of Heaven: saints, relics and devotion in medieval Europe. As curator of the exhibition, I will be one of the first to see these amazing objects coming out of their travelling cases – and I can't wait.
But why am I so excited about seeing a bunch of old bones? In the medieval period the relics of saints were enshrined in the most precious and valuable materials. These containers, known as reliquaries, were made by the finest craftsman of the age. Gleaming gemstones and luminous enamels were placed in sublime combinations with precious metals to speak to the viewer of the reliquaries sacred contents. It is these containers that will be showcased in the exhibition.
Medieval Christians believed that the physical remains of saints provided a tangible link to the divine. Saints sat beside God in heaven and could be petitioned to ask God for help. If I were suffering from plague in the Middle Ages I would want to pray to and venerate the relics of St Blaise, an expert in healing the plague. St Blaise might then ask God to help me and I might be miraculously healed. Some Christians hold similar beliefs today. In 2009 over 90,000 pilgrims came to Westminster Cathedral in London to venerate the travelling relics of French nun St Thérese of Lisieux.
In researching this exhibition we have discovered some extraordinary medieval legends. One is the story of the English princess Ursula who before her marriage went on pilgrimage to venerate relics in the Holy Land. She never got there and was captured and martyred along with her 11,000 virgin travelling companions by pagans in Cologne. This captivating reliquary made from delicately painted wood would once have contained the skull of one her companions.
We still have a lot of work to do before the exhibition opens but I couldn't resist giving a sneak peak at these unusual stories and astounding objects.
Treasures of Heaven: saints, relics and devotion in medieval Europe opens on 23 June 2011. Book tickets online or become a Member and gain free entry to all special exhibitions.
Treasures of Heaven: saints relics and devotion in medieval Europe is sponsored by John Studzinski.

Drafting the Troika - Flames and Three First Rounders
April 11 2013 02:08PM
Since 1995 only eight teams have had three or more 1st round picks in single year. I decided to take a look at those teams, the players chosen, the draft year in question, and then find the most appropriate historical fit for the Flames current situation.
By chronological order, those teams are the Avalanche in 1998 with 4 picks, the Islanders in 1999 with another 4, then the Capitals in 2002 with three, L.A. in 2003 with three, the Caps again in 2004 with three, the Oilers and Blues both in 2007 with three each, then the Panthers in 2010 with three and finally the Senators in 2011 with three.
Here is a breakdown of those teams and their picks:
The closest historical match to the Flames current situation is perhaps the Panthers in 2010 or the Capitals in 2004, where the teams drafted in the top three and then had two "depth picks" around the bottom ten. That being said, based on some recent reports on this draft class (something about which I will elaborate on later) it is difficult to believe that the Flames can realistically expect to find three bona fide NHL players with all three 1st round picks.
The history of teams picking more than twice in the 1st round suggests that the best case scenario is that the team finds a top six player with their first pick and then uncovers a potential bottom six forward and 2nd pairing defenseman with the latter two.
Pulling the Hat Trick is Hard
The best result from any of these teams was probably the 1998 Colorado Avalanche who managed to essentially "hit" on all four picks. The worst is perhaps the Islanders in 1999 who found a top six player in Connolly, then selected an eventual 4th line player in Pyatt 8th overall and essentially blew the final two picks. It should be noted, however, that 1999 was a relatively poor draft year with only 15% of selected prospects eventually becoming NHL players – the league average between 1995 and 2006 was 18.5%.
Even in the fabled 2003 draft, where the Kings had three picks at 13, 26 and 27, they found only one high-end NHL player in Dustin Brown. Of the remaining two, one is a decent defenseman while the other is plying his trade overseas in Zurich of the Swiss League.
The evidence would suggest that having a significant number of picks in any given round is not a guarantee of success, but that it is important to hit on the ones you have, rather than approach the draft board with a sense of luxury or recklessness brought on by a surplus of selections.
Hitting the Draft Table with Aces in the Sleeve
Teams have in the past seemed to believe that getting a number of 1st round selections will allow them to garner a windfall of talent that will shortcut a long rebuilding process. Historically this has proven to be a false belief. Rebuilds take time, patience and development. A team that feels they can do an end-run around the process through the draft probably doesn't have the wherewithal or infrastructure to do it well. Only one team has managed to draft well enough in this situation such that they were able to find success through it (the Avalanche) and it had as much to do with their existing roster talent at the time and the ability to bring along an influx of new talent in a supporting role. They also got incredibly lucky at the draft.
Of the teams listed, L.A. is the only other team to have won a Cup in recent years, and that roster had only one player from that draft windfall still on it in Brown.
Don't misunderstand this article to mean that I believe that multiple picks in any given round is a bad strategy. It isn't. But draft boards need to be run in such a way that every pick needs to be the concensus best projectible player available. Too often when teams have multiple picks in a round you can see the scouts or GMs making selections almost as though they were inviting failure, be it through reach or off-the-board picks. After picking a potential star, teams might start "picking for need" instead of looking for viable assets.
If the Flames take the best player they feel is available with their first pick, then wait and cross off the names of others selected to take the next best player still available with their second and third picks, each time reassessing the players available, and stay away from the temptation of drafting according to present need, then they may find some good players.
The danger lies in that Feaster and the Flames management seem intent on taking these three picks and using them to forestall any pending rebuild. The language and messages coming from the organization are that they will accept this one year, maximize their time at the draft (be it by selection or to trade) and expect to return to the NHL's inner circle the following season.
We will have to wait and see if this approach bears fruit.
You wouldn't swap top 10 picks with Philly if they included Couts? They're 25th in the league and losing to Ottawa as we speak.
Not 1 for 5 or later. The top 4 are considered potential superstars this year. I wouldn't swap a potential Toews or Tavares or Pronger for 2 O'Reilly level players. We need to take our chance at landing a star.
if we are to deal with Philly let's looknfor future. they are cap strapped and have some nice pieces to try and win now. offer up glencross Pitts or stl 1st and perhaps a prospect like Arnold for couturier, their 1st and mezeros. even eat some of glen x contract

Re: best-case scenarios
Spite, resentment and vengeance. Welcome to the dark side my young paduan. Your hatred will give you strength.
Funny, now that Bouwmeester and Iginla are playing for other teams there are some Oiler fans I've spoken to who are hoping they meet in the Cup finals. Can't imagine why.
Seriously, though, I'd ballpark those two picks as being in the 19th and 26th range. Both teams have had goaltending issues and the additions from the Flames, while shiny and dramatic, haven't really dealt with some underlying problems (Pittsburgh needs defensive depth and better play from Fleury, while St. Louis needs one of their goalies to raise his level of play).
"St. Louis needs one of their goalies to raise his level of play"
You mean like maybe three shutouts in a row?
Elliot is on fire.
Avs get at least a point, heading to OT vs LA. Woo!
April 12 2013, 02:09AM
You are aware that Glencross makes 2.55 million right? Why would we need to eat some of that? With Cammalleri it makes sense if we moved him at the draft instead of the deadline, but not Glencross.
BTW, no way on earth Philly does that. They have their own Glencross in Simmonds.

It was the idea of the type of trade that I was trying to get across. I am very aware of what Glencross makes and was using him as an example. The point is that we don't trade a high draft choice for a low one to add parts. Rather, we target teams in cap trouble and try to give them cap flexibility while moving up in the draft and gaining a good prospect. With Philly, you never know what they may do. There owner wants to win now and that trade would make them not only stronger now, but allow them to maintain a 1st and gain some cap flexibility to add.
I can see moving picks if it stays within the top 4, but anything else I think is a mistake. The Flames absolutely, positively MUST nail that pick. Otherwise, if you move it and it doesn't work, people will be looking back on it 30 years from now, "remember when the Flames traded a top 3 pick..."
Just as an off-the-cuff example (I know these are from different draft years), but imagine passing on Taylor Hall and getting Sam Gagner? Now, I think Gagner is a great player, have defended him numerous times and just shake my head at Oilers fans who wanted him moved. But he's a #2 C. On the first line he'd get his head kicked in and, let's face it, he's no Hall. Or, as another example, picking a Backlund (who I also love) over a Huberdeau?
The Flames just can't take that chance. What if Kent is right and they do turn it around? Iginla was worthless, so all the Flames really lost was JBo. So imagine the Flames are successful at grabbing some players (either UFA or due to cap restrictions) and end up in 9th again. What a disaster.
In other words, the team may never pick this high again (or at least for a long time), in a draft this deep.
They need to keep their own pick and make it count. Even trading within the top 4 gives me a cold shiver. THEY HAVE TO GET THIS RIGHT.
@ cLyde
I totally see where you are coming from. If there is any team in the leaague that would make the kind of move you are suggesting, it would probably be Philly. I do see a big shake-up by them. If an A-grade young player becomes available, make something happen. Remember the old hunting slogan that 'a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush'.
This team, despite all that ails it, IS about to enter an off-season with a lot of flexibility. The three picks (assuming St. Lou....), the cap space, etc if managed properly could reap some impressive results. The 'managed properly' part is obviously a concern, but....
Regarding our own pick, there is no question that it is off-limits. Period. I assume it will be a top-four choice, and there appears to be at least 4 franchise players available. The only discussion I want our 'Hockey Operations Department' to be discussing regarding the top pick, is how to get another one and have two. I realize that may not be possible, but don't even think about getting rid of the one we have.
All I know is please for the love of hockey, do not draft a goalie with one of those picks.
The priority should always be (at its most basic and assuming they are equally skilled)
1. Strong center 2. Right handed defenceman 3. Scoring/creative left winger.
To be honest I would not be disappointed with any of the 4 top players. But I would prefer a Center only because I've never seen an elite center in a flames jersey before

The Flames' two best forward prospects are LWs. They need a right winger substantially more right now.
I had this terrible dream and in it Feaster and Wisebroad were talking about post apex hockey and did the following:
1. With our first pick in the entry draft we are going to take some college guy 2 rounds hire than he should be taken, so we can pretend we are the smartest cookie in the jar.
2. With our second pick in the first round, we are going to trade down and take another player from the Quebec high school league who is also planning on taking the college route.
3. With our 3rd pick we going to take a goalie, but not Fucale, from Europe and call him THE BEST PROSPECT in the draft. Yes even better than the big 4.
April 12 2013, 10:19AM
Because he did not let the hockey department determine which was the best deal for the hockey operations I would have to think that you are in the minority. Hope the Penguins lose out in 4 straight in the first round.
Iginla is the reason a lot of people became or remained Flames fans through the early 2000s. He's done one thing that had a (slight) negative impact on the organization, and that was all because ownership/Feaster left the final decision up to him.
If you're a hockey player, a legendary one I might add, who's given his entire life to a single organization and they say "do you want to play in Boston with Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci or in Pittsburgh with Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin", which team would you be more likely to pick? I doubt Iginla knew anything about any of the prospects involved, Koko included, and Feaster likely didn't push him one way or another.
From a purely objective "make the team better" standpoint, the handling of that trade was lacklustre (although, again, it didn't have the enormous negative impact that people seem to feel it did). From the perspective of treating your former franchise player with respect, it was a nice thing to do, and I honestly don't begrudge anyone involved for it.
April 12 2013, 10:27AM
Feaster's trades have been somewhat disconcerting from a "we feel like we're smarter than everyone else" perspective. Asking for Hanowski & Agostino as well as those two clowns from the Blues reeks of delusions of intellectual grandeur; however, from a drafting perspective he's been pretty on point when one compares his choices to various prospect rankings. Jankowski was the only real "reach", and that was only by a couple of spots, and entirely justifiable given the other talent available at that spot in the 2012 draft.
The Flames passed over Teravainen, Ceci, and Maatta as the "big names" they could've had. That's a small player who lacks strength and projects to be a mid-grade top 6 winger in the NHL at best, and a pair of defencemen who were both considered to have mid-level 2nd pairing potential. Ceci and Maatta would have been safer picks than Jankowski, but Teravainen would not. And the only thing going against Jankowski was that he was such an unknown; outside of that, he has the highest potential ceiling, and the most projectable frame/raw skillset of all four of those players.
I think you're underrating TT. Besides, strength is the one thing anyone can improve on. And Maatta could well develop into a #2 D. And there's certainly no guarantee on a guy with a 5 year projected development curve.

I'm saying that TT and Jankowski aren't that dissimilar in terms of their boom/bust potential, but they have different things potentially holding them back. And I doubt either of the dmen ever makes it to a top pairing except out of necessity.
To be honest I would not be disappointed with any of the 4 top players. But I would prefer a Center only because I've never seen an elite center in a flames jersey before
Likely being older, I remember Joe Nieuwnedyk's back to back 51 goals, followed by two seasons with 45 goals. It was a different age, but Nieuw was a true powerhouse in his day.
I want Feaster to draft 2 centres with his first 2 picks. I don't care if Drouin doubles as Superman in his spare time, he's a LW and the most important position in hockey is Centre.
With MacKinnon, Barkov, Nichushkin, Lindholm, Monahan, Shinkaruk, Gauthier, Lazar, Horvat, etc looking like top 20 Centres, I'd even be ok with Feaster acquiring another 1st rounder somehow.

To get Jones and one of those centers would be my goal.
Yes, this wasn't specific to the Flames... more as general drafting priorities. Teams that put goalies, or right wingers ahead of this order (unless there team is stacked in those other three ways) are seriously missing the boat.
And even then, I think I'd still take in that order unless you're 90-100% certain of your prospects.
You can never have too many strong centers, or high quality right handed d-men even if it's just to stock the assets cupboard.
I could be wrong but something tells me this time around Flames brass won't go off the board and take a h.s. kid. I think they pick one of Jones, Drouin or MacKinnon. I would take MacKinnon, we need a #1 center. I feel like Feaster and Weisbrod have put all their eggs in one basket by being too heavy in U.S. college players. They need to take guys from the OHL and the QMJHL. Three picks is nice to have but if you screw it up by taking guys like Fata and Tkachuk you set yourself up for years of failure. The good thing is that a lot of players these days are a lot more NHL ready. I would take one high end player any day of the week than some middle of the road guys or non NHL regulars.
I was joking around with my dream. Just tired of hearing Wisebroad and Feaster say that so and so is the best this best that. Yes I know they are Americans and love to be brash, but eventually something they say has to be backed up no? Jankowski is a super reach, and I still believe they could have taken him in the 2nd round, but then again we not have got Seiloff.
I also understand you can't rip your guys, but maybe they should be tad more realistic with their bar. I hope Jankowski is the best player from this draft, but did they really have to say that 5mins after the fact?
The draft is such a crap shoot after the top 5, so I guess time will tell if that move pans out.
We REALLY need a center, but I can also see them taking Seth Jones. I keep hearing mixed things about Nate, but I guess let's wait until we see where our pick is then decide who is the best option. I'll lose it if the crappy Oilers somehow win it again, even if they finish 11th.
April 12 2013, 03:28PM
If we want Coutrier from Philly, Feaster and Co should be looking at taking Bryzgolof off their hands in the trade. All signs point to philly wanting to buy him out this summer which would cost them $35million! If we can save them the money of having to buy him out, the asking price on Coutrier should come down, and we do have all that magical cap space to make it happen.
A possible trade could be Coutrier/Bryz for Gio and one of our later 1st rounders. Is that enough to get it done??
@Purple Hazze
I don't see the benefit of trading for their 7 year headache of a goalie who turns 33 this summer and has a higher cap hit than Kipper.
I'm all for taking advantage of the cap space opportunity the Flames have this summer, but players like Luongo, Lecavalier, DiPietro and Bryzgalov have no value until after they're bought out.
Timmonen on the other hand, has an expensive cap hit at $6M for one more season. This is the kind of trade Feaster should be looking at making since Briere already said today that he expects to be bought out in the off-season.
Timmonen + Philly's 1st for Pittsburgh's 1st is a deal I'd be all over. I have no idea if it would work, but it would be smart. Timmonen could become a playoff rental at the next deadline too.
Someone always bucks the trend of what has happened in the past. I hope you guys score some great prospects with your picks. We got klefbom at 19 and eberle at 22. So you never know what's going to happen. I hope as your neighbor to the north that you guys draft 3 stars and set the bar for having 3 first round picks. Just remember to take best player available don't draft for need or you'll end up with an alex plante LOL

I'll be integrating this tomorrow. I've preferred to kill all the rest of stuff to have more time to "understand" this properly together with David's backup 19 one.
In the mean time 2 comments/questions:
1) Does the inclusion of this new version imply the deletion of the previous one.
2) IMO just this (the tinymce editor) requires one QA complete test (all buttons, plugins...) per se. Feel free to discuss/create it.
Hi Eloy
1) i supposed that the old version remained in case of regressions. (its also easy to test it with it around, just switching the versions used)
2) yup, adding it to release notes so that it gets into QA
Please note the upgrade does not seem to take lib/editor/tinymce/tiny_mce/18.104.22.168/plugins/ into account.
i'm not sure i understand.
Do you mean that the upgrade didn't upgrade the plugins?
The upgrade script had generated the plugins too, so i was under the impression that the plugins were upgraded.
is there a separate upgrade process to be done for each of the plugins?
Just wondering what should be checked when QA testing this issue? What are tinyMCE plugins? Apu, it would be really helpful if you could provide more detailed testing instructions.
Apu: Ah sorry. I did not notice that our additional plugins are part of your branch. OK then.
Helen: TinyMCE plugins are extensions that provide additional functionality. Typically our file picker, emoticons etc.
Helen: i'm writing up a list of tests for the tinyMCE plugins. will post here soon! (will probably get DS to review them too)
David: :-p
This has been integrated, thanks!
NOTE: I've deleted the old 18.104.22.168 version and upgraded version.php to get caches pruned.
TODO: Some things that we must review related to this:
1) Update the readme_moodle.txt to point to correct git repos (ping me once ready and I will cherry pick it).
2) Anything to push to the github repositories (moodle / custom-tinymce and moodle / custom-tinymce_spellchecker_php)?
3) Why are we using the 20_STABLE branch? There is something in the process that is not clear for me. Also there is one 34 branch there, not sure why.
4) I've performed basic testing with Safari and got images/emoticons/repos working ok, but one QA tests for this would be perfect, nice you're working on it.
5) Pass this as tested, tell me when the QA is available and I'll pass this.
6) It seems that there are some "18.104.22.168" occurrences in our plugins, surely they should be also updated or so. Ask David.
7) Done:
MDL-27896 - It was detected that the course->summary (course/edit.php) was not setting the correct context into editor options, so the emoticons button was missing and not observing the filter settings for the course context). Afte chatting with David, we have agreed about to add some debugging/exceptions to file_prepare_editor() to detect situations like that in the future. At the same time the course/edit.php needs fixing. This point must go to new issue.
Some suggested tests for QA:
- test the emoticons plugin at course/section/activity (summaries / intros), playing with the emoticons filter enabled / disabled and inherited.
re 2)
i've got https://github.com/nebgor/tinymce/compare/master...MDL-27500_MOODLE_21_STABLE -->
https://github.com/nebgor/tinymce_spellchecker_php/compare/master...MDL-27500_MOODLE_21_STABLE -->
re 6) yup just changing those version number - will create a fix along with the readme changes (1)..
Perfect, so we can reduce the pending points above to:
a) commit to fix the numbers and the readme
b) Done: push STABLE21 to moodle/xxx github's repos
c) Say when the QA is ready
gogogo! TIA!
a) https://github.com/nebgor/moodle/compare/integration-master...MDL-27500_plugin_version_and_readme_updates
b) thanks Eloy,
Tiny MCE QA:
- plugin : moodleemoticon
- test TinyMCE popup window to insert a Moodle emoticon
- test the emoticons plugin at course/section/activity (summaries / intros), playing with the emoticons filter enabled / disabled and inherited.
- plugin : moodlemedia
- test moodle media insertion / preview (playback) / test that the media is actually saved fine and retrieveable later.
- plugin : moodlenolink
- test moodle no link tags work
(i shd improve that qa test but thats for now)
All points closed, passing this and igniting very first on-demand master-only upstream process.

"Pretty true to size, if you're in-between sizes I would go up. I usually wear a 6.5 or 7 and the 7 was a good fit but did not leave much room. Unfolded, the boot comes to the knee. It looks good with the top part folded-over too. Wearing it that way makes it look a bit more like a "trapper" style boot. (Sometimes folded over boots look like "pirate" boots, not this one.)"

Not for short ladies
"I so wanted to love these boots. I'm 5 feet 2 and the area of the boot (if you look closely you can see a line about 1/2 way up) wants to sit right at my calf (I think it's supposed to go more at the bottom of the claf) I don't have large calfs and even can wear boots most people complain are too tight in the calfs but I can't pull these boots up. So sad because they look super cute and I think they would be very comfy. So just a warning if you are on the petite side these may not work for you."

Style at a Great Price
"These boots are great...knee high, comfortable and easy to walk in. I have high arches so the inside ankle zipper was a real bonus. They fit great! Definitely worth the price."

I'm now thinking of using these for flyback diodes: http://www.sanrex.com/images/PDFs/BKR400AB10.pdf , but I can't make out if they are fast enough. Would it be a good choice? Or can anyone suggest an appropriate diode?
I'm planning of using the mower chassis for common ground (like most cars). Is that a bad idea?
What kind of capacitors should I use for motor noise suppression?

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – Mark Sanchez had three interceptions in organized team activities Wednesday.
OK, so it's OTAs and Sanchez is learning a new offense. But for a guy who has turned the ball over 52 times in the past two seasons, combined, taking care of the football is going to a priority from May through September and beyond – if he's the one throwing the ball on game day.
In short, Wednesday's performance was disappointing.
IT'S JAY-Z: Geno Smith picks his man
DAY IN COURT: Goodson pleads not guilty
"Yeah, it is. Absolutely," coach Rex Ryan said. "It's a good thing defense makes the plays, but no, I'd rather him not turn the ball over once. It's funny because you look at the practice and he did a lot of great things, and then those negative things. At the end of the day, that's what gets you beat. And so we've got to do a better job of eliminating those turnovers."
One of Sanchez's three interceptions was to defensive lineman Damon Harrison, known around these parts as "Snacks" because of his once-unhealthy diet.
"Of all people, freakin' Snacks," Sanchez said. "That's like your worst nightmare."
That, and losing his job to rookie Geno Smith. If the turnovers continue, Sanchez will be in deep trouble. The interception by Harrison certainly didn't help.
"But you look at who it was. It was Snacks. I don't think that was anything to be ashamed of," Ryan said. "We actually have the D-tackle spying the back. Sure enough, he saw the blitz, launched it over there and (Harrison) was right there for us. (Center Nick) Mangold was blocking him and was like, 'You gotta be kidding me.'
"But yeah, that was disappointing. That's one you've just got to throw it away. I prefer he gets rid of it and throws it away or runs with it."
Sanchez said new offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg has told him he's doing a lot of things correctly. But Sanchez has said before Mornhinweg told him, "Don't lay the ball on the carpet and don't throw it to anybody else."
Rule No. 2 was violated multiple times Wednesday.
"That's going to be the pressure that we're putting on him," Ryan said. "He did a lot of great things. It's not that you try to cover up the fact you had some bad plays. No, no, no, you flat tell him. We can't have these and all that type of stuff. He knows."

Rangers Complete The Comeback, Advance With 2-1 Game Seven Win
Jim Cerny
What seemed so improbable--perhaps impossible to some--less than a week ago became a reality Tuesday night in Pittsburgh as the Rangers completed their comeback from a three-games-to-one series deficit to defeat the Penguins 2-1 in a thrilling Game Seven at the CONSOL Energy Center. With the series win, the Rangers advance to their second Eastern Conference Final in three years, where they will face the winner of the Boston Bruins-Montreal Canadiens series, which is currently tied three games apiece.
The series win was the first in franchise history for the Rangers in which they lost three of the first four games. They had been 0-16 when falling behind in a playoff series 3-1. The Game Seven win was the Rangers fifth straight such victory dating to the 2012 post-season; and they also improved their record to 10-2 in the last 12 playoff elimination games they have played, which includes a 4-0 mark in these 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
"I can't tell you how much I've been amazed by this group in the last little while," said alternate captain Brad Richards, who scored the game-winning goal and improved his personal record to 7-0 in career Game Sevens.
Henrik Lundqvist established an NHL record for goaltenders by winning his fifth consecutive Game Seven. He is now 5-1 in six career Game Sevens. He was simply the best player on the ice Tuesday, making 35 saves. Lundqvist closed out the series allowing just three goals in total over the final three must-win games for the Rangers.
"Our goaltender took his game to another level," stated Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault. "He was the difference in the game."
Added defenseman Anton Stralman, who himself had a huge game while logging 22 minutes 24 seconds of ice-time, : "It's not just tonight, it's been all series and the series before. He's been on top of his game; and he's the best in the world."
The Rangers star goaltender was at his absolute best in the final minutes of the contest with the desperate Penguins crashing his crease with abandon and the Rangers struggling to keep the puck out of their end of the ice. During one wild scramble, with bodies flying all over and the shots coming from all angles, Lundqvist made three or four game-saving stops, including one on Penguins defenseman Paul Martin after he had lost his stick.
"Those saves with five minutes to go, three or four in a row, those are the biggest saves I've seen him make I think since I've been here," offered alternate captain Marc Staal, who played a rock-solid 22 minutes 40 seconds on Tuesday. "Up one goal, five minutes left, and we needed a big save there, and he made a bunch. It's a good feeling knowing he's back there for you, competing like he does."
The Rangers top four defensemen did another outstanding job in helping to shut down the Penguins biggest guns--Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Chris Kunitz, and James Neal. Malkin and Neal picked up assists in Game Seven, while Crosby and Kunitz were held off the scoresheet. Crosby finished the series scoreless in the last three games and with just one goal and two assists in the series. Neal and Kunitz had one goal apiece in the series, while Malkin stood out as Pittsburgh's best player, finishing with three goals and four assists.
Lundqvist was brilliant in goal, and the Rangers were opportunistic with their scoring chances, in taking a 2-1 lead into the second intermission. Goals by Brian Boyle and Brad Richards sandwiched one by Pittsburgh's Jussi Jokinen while Lundqvist was a brick wall between the pipes for the visitors, stopping 22 of 23 Penguin shots.
"Henrik had it going, and when he's got it going it's got to be frustrating to play against him," said McDonagh. "That's what he does, makes big saves, takes away confidence from the other team. He was just competing so hard, wanting to win, and that's what he's done all along."
Boyle opened the scoring just 5:25 into Game Seven, beating Fleury between the pads off a 3-on-2 rush. Boyle's takeaway in the neutral zone started the odd-man rush, and he finished it off after passes from Derek Dorsett and Dominic Moore left him free in front of the Pittsburgh net.
"Our line was jumping," explained Boyle, whose goal was his second of the playoffs. "We love contributing, and as we go further along here we'll see that the teams that have great depth will be the teams still standing. We want to make sure we give that to our team."
Instead of wilting, the Penguins came back with a venegence, controlling much of the remaining 14-plus minutes in the period, though the Rangers did limit Pittsburgh's scoring chances by blocking shots and passes and largely keeping the Penguins to the outside. Still, the Penguins owned the puck for much of the period, with Lundqvist making his best save on a Crosby snap show from between the circles--using his blocker to bat the puck away--midway through the period.
New York was outshot 10-7 in the first, and then 13-6 in the second period, but the visitors overcame Jokinen's game-tying score off a rebound 4:15 into the middle period with its struggling power play coming through just three minutes after Pittsburgh had tied the score.
Pittsburgh defenseman Matt Niskanen was watching from the penalty box after being whistled for tripping at 6:45 when Richards beat Fleury off a scramble at 7:56, restoring New York's one-goal lead. Richards' fourth goal of the playoffs--assisted by Martin St. Louis and Derek Stepan--was only the Rangers third on the power play in this series, but it held up to the second intermission as Lundqvist upped his game to more than match the Penguins, who had a string of quality scoring chances as the period wore on.
"As much heat as our power play has gotten during these playoffs, when we needed a goal (tonight) we got one," offered Staal. "It's a huge momentum swing, it stifles the crowd, takes them out of it, and gets (the Penguins) thinking again--we've got to get another one by Hank, and then another one. That was a huge goal."
The Rangers scored three power play goals in the series, and excelled on the penalty kill, stopping 19 of Pittsburgh's 20 power plays from scoring. Pittsburgh had only one power play on Tuesday night, while the Rangers had two.
Lundqvist stoned Chris Kunitz on a three-on-two down low 14 minutes into the second period, and then made a huge one-on-one pad save on James Neal, who was left all alone outside the goaltender's crease at 17:57 to make sure the 2-1 lead held up before turning in a perfect 13-save third period.
Fleury had his moments, as well, denying Richards cutting to the net and redirecting St. Louis' pretty chip pass midway through the opening period when a goal would have lifted the Rangers to a 2-0 lead, and then flat out robbing a wide-open Dan Girardi 6:18 into the second period. Fleury also was lucky when Benoit Pouliot's shot from ten feet out hit the crossbar less than a minute from the start of the second period.
In the third period Fleury was fortunate twice more. The first time was when there was a misplay after a miscommunication playing the puck in his own crease, but the Rangers could not chip it by him, then shortly thereafter at 8:17 St. Louis missed the net during a 2-on-1 odd-man rush with Carl Hagelin.
In the end the Rangers more than proved their mettle, winning three straight when facing playoff elimination against a team which finished 13 points ahead of them in the standings. After a day off Wednesday, it will be back to work Thursday with the Eastern Conference Finals set to begin at some point this weekend.
"We needed a lot of guys to stand up in order to come back against this team, and in the end we had a lot of bus drivers (not passengers)," summed up Vigneault.

Automakers issue recalls
Three automakers have issued recalls that affect more than two million vehicles on the road.
Hyundai has recalled 2007 through 2011 model year Hyundai Accent, Elantra, Genesis Coupe, Santa Fe, Sonata, Tucson and Veracruz.
KIA is recalling its Optima, Rondo, Sorento, Soul and Sportage.
U.S. safety regulators say the vehicles' cruise control may not turn off when the brake is pressed, and a faulty switch can prevent the vehicles' brake lights from illuminating.
More than 200,000 Subaru Legacy and Outback all wheel drive vehicles are being recalled due to problems with brake lines.
The recall affects models from 2005 through 2009 sold in cold weather states where salt is used to clear roads.
Documents released by officials at Subaru say salt may cause the brake lines to rust and leak.
There is no word on whether the problem has caused any crashes.
Those three automakers have said they will contact customers about free repairs.

but you did say this
emphasis added to Jasons earlier post wrote:i was trying to get to the heart of the importance of the strict monastic rules, in particular the no eating after noon and seeing if in todays society it would still be deemed necessary or if it is more or less followed as a tradition.
this is by its very nature bringing the relevance of the mendicants precepts into question! and as such the 227 rules of a bhikkhu or 311(?) rules of a Bhikkhuni, are not relevant in regard to lay life as they are not lay precepts. their relevance is purely that of the mendicants, the origin stories and evolution (in some cases) of the rules are not informative to how a lay person need practice sila. That is, however, not saying the rules for mendicants can not inform the lay precepts, or that a rule can not be employed by a lay person, just that the rules & origins are not directly pertinent.
As an example, I am not a sports person, and have little interest in sports, but that doesn't mean that certain aspects of a sports persons routine can not be used, but the reason I would use these are not going to be exactly the same.
Take the rules on sex, these may inform the third precepts, but they are certainly not relevant to understand in there fine detain for a lay practice.
neither does the catagory of rule a Mendicants rule is in necessarily tell us anything about a lay persons rule, or its importance.
remember cittasanto there are many silent people lurking on this website who are to shy to take part, and our communication although beneficial to our own personal practice may be their only window into these teachings. if you wish to explain your answers in more detail it would be appreciated by me and by other members i'm sure. if not this is good too.
only what is posted can be responded to, or should I respond to every possible question and further question in one post?
but that is not relevant to the topic at hand.

Many committees of the European Parliament organise meetings with national Parliaments on concrete issues or specific draft EU legislation, for instance on the reform of the EU's agricultural policy or the gender pay gap. Meetings which are organised under the sole responsibility of the European Parliament and its committees are referred to as Interparliamentary Committee Meetings.
Interparliamentary Committee Meetings are the standard type of meeting organised by the European Parliament at committee level. However, every committee has the possibility to decide on the degree of cooperation with, and involvement of, national parliaments in the preparation of these meetings.
In addition, the EP committees may invite their counterparts from national Parliaments to workshops, hearings or debates during one of their regular committee meetings.
All of these meetings are organised by the secretariat of the competent EP committee with the support of the Directorate for Relations with National Parliaments.

The Memorial Day event at Fort Logan National Cemetery followed a traditional agenda, but many at the cemetery that day observed their private ceremony honoring those military members who gave their lives in service to our country.
"The speeches and things are fine, but I usually do get over by there for the 21-gun salute and playing of 'Taps' because they have meaning for me," Sean Savage said on May 27. "I rode my motorcycle up from Raton, N.M., to pay tribute to two guys from my unit in Desert Storm. That is important, so I don't care about the speeches and ceremonies, but I feel they are firing the salute and playing 'Taps' again for my friends."
Not far away, Sharon Mecham and her son Adam Chartier placed flowers near a headstone.
"This is the grave of Adam's grandfather who is a World War II veteran," Sharon said. "We come out to Fort Logan when we can but we always come on Memorial Day because we want to remember all those people who fought and died for our country."
Adam agreed.
"This is a very special day for us," he said. "We want to pay tribute to my grandfather and, at the same time, pay tribute to all those people who lost their lives fighting for our country."
The traditional Memorial Day ceremonies drew a crowd of about 2,500 that included retired Air Force Master Sgt. Christian Poeppel and his dad Al, a Korean War veteran.
"I think each of us has attended a Memorial Day ceremony but this is the first time we have come together," Christian said. "We came to honor those who sacrificed their lives in service of our country and being here together makes a special day even more special for us."
Mother Nature provided a very warm, almost cloudless day for the ceremonies. There were the speeches, members of the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars auxiliaries placed flowers at the symbolic headstone, and a group of dignitaries and a group of Gold Star Wives each placed a wreath there.
There was the firing of the 21-gun salute by an All Veterans Honor Guard, made up of members of Verle Huffman VFW Post 9644 in Sheridan, and the playing of "Taps."
There were quite a few families with their children at the ceremonies. Also, there was a group of about 20 boys and girls in the uniform of the Mountain View Young Marines who volunteered to hand out programs.
Young Marine Lance Cpl. Xander Tamblyn, 9, said he liked being part of the organization.
"We are like a family and I like to take part in team activities to help people because I go home with the feeling I have done something good to help others," the boy said. "We are here today to help and also to honor those who died for our country. That makes it a special day for everyone and a special day for me."

Live blog... NHL Draft Day 2 - Tambellini on Brodziak trade!
Jason Gregor
June 27 2009 08:10AM
8:05 a.m. MST
Day two doesn't have the same build up as day one, so I wouldn't be surprised to see more trades today.
And just like that the Day starts with a bang. And it is a piss in your cornflakes day for Oiler fans.
The Flames have acquired the rights to Jay Bouwmeester for Jordan Leopold and a 3rd pick. When the Flames sign him, they will have to trade some big contract away, and that would seem to be either Regehr or Phaneuf. We will watch with interest.
8:12 a.m MST
Six minutes in and we already have seven picks, it's amazing how much faster it goes. Landon Ferraro goes 32nd to the Detroit Red Wings, a big relief after sitting here for four hours yesterday without hearing his name called.
With the 40th pick the Oilers take another Swede, Anton Lander a 6'0" 194 pounder. Here is the scouting report on him.
"Great two-way player, plays as both a center and left wing, has decent faceoff skills as a center. A gifted playmaker, but also with some ability to score, will be known more for his passing skills however. Good gritty and physical player in the J20 in Sweden, battles well in the corners. Plays with great emotion and comes to play day in and day out, however this competitiveness has led to him taking unnecessary penalties at times. Hasn't adjusted to playing with men in the Elitserien yet, but they may happen over the course of the 08-09 season."
There is lots of talk on the floor about what this Flames deal means. Early speculation is that Dion Phaneuf could be dealt. The Flames don't have the cap space to keep Bouwmeester, Phaneuf and Regehr so one of them will move.
8:24 a.m. MST
The St. Louis Blues take Beaumont boy Brett Ponich, a 6'7" 210 pound giant. He is tough and physical D-man playing for the Portland Winterhawks. His stock kept rising all year and he is projected to be a solid D-man in a few years, as long as he improves his foot speed.
Darryl Sutter is now working the phones. You wonder how long he will wait to make a deal, because everyone knows he can't keep all three D-men. If the Human Rake can get you two players, and two first rounders, what do you think Phaneuf will attract?
8:38 a.m. MST
Round two is already over. This will be over quickly.
More on Lander. He played with MPS in Timra, and was his centreman. He's been the captain of the under 18 national team, and is very competitive. He admits he needs to improve his skating to play in the NHL, but like MPS, he will play in Timra again this coming season before heading over to North America.
Not a lot on the Heatley front right now. but the fact that Calgary took J-Bo has everyone talking. This muddies the waters, because it mean another big name, either Phaneuf or Regehr, is now on the block.
With the speed of the picks today, you don't see managment leaving their tables as often as yesterday.
I just had a brief talk with an eastern conference asst. GM and he said the interest level in one of the Flames D-men will be intense. He said Phaneuf might fetch more than the Human Rake. We will see.
8:50 a.m MST
With their third pick, 71st overall the Oilers took high schooler Troy Hesketh. He wasn't ranked anywhere by Central Scouting, in fact, he didn't even have a name card to slide in right away. They had two other name bars in below him, before they finally got a name plate for him on the big draft board.
He is going to Wisconsin next season. He is 6'2" and 185 pounds and is an offensive d-man. He had seven goals and 21 points in 25 games for the Minnetonka Skippers and was an impressive +23.
9:02 a.m. MST
A quick recap of yesterday's trades in case you missed them.
Ducks traded the Human Rake and prospect Ryan Dingle to the Flyers for Lupul, Sbisa, the 21st pick yesterday, a 1st rounder in 2010 and a conditional pick in 2010 or 2011.
Columbus traded picks #16 and #77 to the Islanders for #26, #37, #62 and #92
Minnesota traded #12 pick to Islanders for #16, #77 and #182.
Calgary traded pick #20 to New Jersey for #23 adn #84.
Anaheim traded #21 to Columbus for #26 and #37.
Detroit traded #29 to to Tampa for #32 and #75.
9:04 a.m. MST
The Oilers take from Everett in the WHL Cameron Abney. He is a tough as nails but the scouting report is he needs to improve a lot as a player.
9:13 a.m MST
Round three is over, and both Oiler picks weren't rated in Central scouting.
Abney is 6'4" 195 pounds who is tough as nails, but won't bring much offence. He had 1 goals and 4 points in 48 games with Everett this past year. He is a great fighter, but hasn't shown an ability to do much else.
This is a pick to toughen up the minor system down the road.
9:20 a.m MST
Now we start to see the GM's interacting. Most GM's don't know any of the players past the 3rd round and can now move a bit more freely to discuss possible moves. I don't see Sutter on the floor right now. He has been receiving a lot of calls, and now some are speculating that he will try to keep his big three for one run, before the cap goes down. But Even if they get Jay Bo signed to a $6 million cap hit that puts them around $53.4 million with six D-men, two goalies and nine forwards signed. They would need to sign four more players just to get to 21. It will be interesting to see if he can balance the books to keep the big three on the backend.
9:28 a.m MST
9:34 a.m MST
Computer crashes...WTF...
9:55 a.m MST
The Oilers dealt Brodziak for the 99th pick and swamped late picks with Minnesota. The Oilers then took Kyle Bigos a 6'5" 230 pound, 20 year-old D-man who played in the BCHL for Vernon.
Brodziak's departure opens the door for Gilbert Brule to slide into his 4th line centre spot. The Oilers wanted Brodziak to be grittier and got tired of waiting it seems.
Then with the 101st pick the Oilers took talented finnish forward Toni Rajala. He was ranked 11th amongst European players. He broke Ovechkin's record at the under 18 championships, when he scored ten goals, and had 19 points in six games. He is small at 5'10" 165 pounds but he loads of skill. He was ranked the 2nd best play maker behind Duchene and third best puck handler behind Duchene and Glennie according to Central Scouting.
10:03 a.m MST
Oil Kings prospect Tomas Vincour goes 129th to the Dallas Stars. They butchered his name, but he could be a sleeper for them. He was rated way higher to start the year, but slipped due to injury. If he can stay healthy he might turn out to be a decent mid round pick.
10:07 a.m MST
The Oilers pick Olivier Roy. The netminder was ranked 2nd amongst north american goalies by central scouting. ISS had him ranked second amongst every goalie in the draft. The crowd gave the pick a huge ovation, since he played in the QMJHL.
10:43 a.m. MST
Just spoke with Ken Holland. He and Rich Winter, Hossa's agent, are talking to see if they can find a cap number that fits into Detroit's plans. Hossa isn't completely out of their plans but he'll have to take a pay cut to stay there. I'd bet he needs something around $5.5 cap hit to fit in.
It's been almost three hours since the Bouwmeester deal to Calgary and the rumours are wide ranging. Some think Phaneuf is gone for sure, while others think Sutter wants to make one great run, and then when the cap goes down next year he will move one or two big tickets. Early speculation is that Jay Bo will sign a long term deal to get a lower cap hit, some where around $6.3 to $6.7.
10:51 a.m MST
The Flames just traded Jim Vandermeer to the Coyotes for Brandon Prust. That opens a spot on the backend and brings in another NHL forward. That just saved them 1.75 in cap space. Vandermeer was making $2.3 while Prust is a .525 cap hit.
10:58 a.m MST
The seventh round is under way. There are 25 picks left and it is painful to watch the handful of kids that are still sitting in the stands waiting for their name to be called. I have no idea what parents are thinking when they agree to let their son come here, unless he is rated in the top 60. Those guys do drop, but normally not all the way out of the draft. If you son is rated in the 4th or 5th round, don't bring him.
You can see the frustration, sadness and humiliation in their body with ever pick that passes them by.
There is no need for them to be here and I think it is on the shoulder of the parents and agents to convince them not to come. Some might be motivated by it, but many never recover from not getting the call.
11:15 a.m MST
The Oilers just traded their 7th pick for a pick next year.
Many have asked how many contracts the Oilers have now that Brodziak has been traded.
Starting July 1st they will have 33 contracts, but I'd expect Hrabel to go back to Europe, or they buy him out and they will be down to 32. Three of those include Eberle, Plante and Kytnar, so if they go back to junior they don't count. I'd guess Plante might go to the minors so lets say they are at 30.
The Oilers will add Smid, Grebeshkov and Brule for sure so that puts them at 33. They have room to move, but moving Brodziak was for a few reasons. They had too many forwards under contract, and they like Brule's grit better.
11:20 a.m. MST
The Nashville Predators use the first time out of the day...ohhh...and after the break they choose Cameron Reid from Westside in the BCHL....we"ll see if that time out pans out in a few years. Remember the name Cameron Reid, that timeout might have been the best 30 seconds the Predators took...or maybe not.
11:45 a.m. MST
Tambellini talks about Brodziak trade
"We do need to change our line up a bit. We have too many bodies at forward. We are willing to give some people a chance that haven't had a chance before."
Is Brule that guy?
"He'll get a very good look this year, there is no question about it. But I'm not sure if that's exactly what's going to happen with that position."
How aggressive do you expect to be on July 1st and what areas do you need to upgrade?
"I think most teams, regardless of what they are looking for will be aggressive. A lot of the times it is first what you have to MOVE in order to bring something in. And that's very difficult right now and that's why there is a lot of hesitation in the market. There are great players out there, but it is difficult at times to move contracts. I think that aggressiveness will depend on what happens prior to July 1st."
Do you feel pressure to keep pace with the Flames after they added Bouwmeester?
"Every day you try to make your own team better, you can't control what other teams do. They're in a different situation than we are with our roster. We are a little bit younger than they are, but they have a good hockey club and we know that, but I have to do what is best for our team."
Tambellini made it clear that some people will get a bigger chance this season. Brule and Pouliot will be the two that battle for Brodziak's opening, they also want to give Jacques a legit shot on the wing. He also hinted that he'll make another move before July 1st to free up some space and a body. They still have too many forwards, so don't be surprised to see another one moved soon.
12:04 p.m. MST
That wraps up the 2009 Draft and the first OILERSNATION live blog from the draft. It was a great experience and I'm looking forward to hitting the town this afternoon. Thanks again to all of your donations and for following the blog from Montreal. Next year's location hasn't been announced yet, but we'll be there and we will find a way to make it even better.
Now we can turn our focus towards free agency.
This is a pick to toughen up the minor system down the road.
This is a pick that could have been made 2-4 rounds later.
Terrible pick.

He has stated that he actually had another deal lined up at the trade deadline that put them to the cap, but it fell thru. If they didn't suffer so many big-name, high-priced injuries with less than 10 games to go, they wouldn't have had the cap problems. With less than 10 games left, you can't put guys on injured reserve. Therefore, their money stays on the books. If the guys got hurt with 11 games left, noone would've said a thing because it wouldn't have been an issue. Bad luck, thats all. Could've happened to anyone.
Could have's and should have's don't get results. Bringing in all that money (Jokinen) at the deadline and not shipping enough out is not wise. He may have had something worked out that fell through, but it didn't go, so the team suffered greatly because of it. The blame for that can only fall on Darryl Sutter. He did get screwed a bit with the 10 game rule, but I still think it was mainly poor management on his part that cost them the division.
No Vincour yet? Or local kid Burke Gallimore.
Hey Gregor,
Just wanted to say thank you for all the up to date coverage on the website, yesterday and today.
Here's to hoping the Oil land a big fish July 1st!
Waking up to see Jay Bo rights are to the flamers hurts.

that's still poor cap management. You need to always have a plan worst case, and, did it cost them in RND 1?
June 27 2009, 09:31AM
Nice to see that Sutter has learned his lesson from last season about cap management. hahaha
Brodz traded to Minny.
Brodz 2 Minni for?

99 haha
This radio broadcast on 1260 is so bush league I can hardly stand listening to it....
Kyle Bigos, apparently.
Brodziak gone? to create room to get Heatley? haha
Too many centres. It needed to happen. Brodziak never played big enough. But I didn't mind him. Not much cahs shedded, the Wild will like him.
Brodziak is extremely underrated, and hes a local boy. He took a lot of defensive face offs this year and carried around the worst quality of teammates in the league (almost), and he proved last year that when with decent linemates he can score at will. This is disappointing, I assume its for Harding.
Brodziak clears about a buck and a half from the cap...
For who Harding?
Brodz to Min for Gabby!?
We can dream can't we.
@ Clarkenstein:
Tune into the TEAM 1250. That's where Jason is at.
At least we know we are getting a good faceoff man somehow now.
Rajala... 5'10" 163 lbs... just the size we needed
Why would they trade brodz, for a prospect?
Doesn't really make sense.
Toni Rajala.Hemmertime wrote:

Yeah, Ryan Stone.
Minnesota Twitter site says Brodziak and the 161 pick for 99 and 133
Why Brodziak? Are we going to give up on faceoffs all together this year and throw all three guys on the wings?
@ heavyd:
They traded him for the 99th overall pick, Kyle Bigos.

True, but I'm guessing they feel better about Brule or Stone to ice on the 4th. I hope we can sign Malhotra.
@ OpenAir: Would still only leave us with 2 competent faceoff men and we all saw how that worked out, forgot about malhotra, wouldnt mind him either.
@ Jason Gregor: So the atlanta talks are completely defunct now?
Have to believe trading Brodziak is a precursor to something bigger.....PLEASE let this just be the beginning!!!
Brodz trade alleviates the Oil of a contract and opens the door for gritty Brule...
On Bigos:
Tournament MVP Kyle Bigos Talks RBC Cup Win It's fair to say that few British Columbia Hockey League players have boosted their resumes to the extent that Vernon Vipers assistant captain Kyle Bigos has this season.
On Sunday, the six-foot-five defenceman capped a tremendous year with a highlight reel goal in Vernon's RBC Cup-clinching win over the Humboldt Broncos. One night earlier, he was recognized as the tournament's Most Valuable Player and Best Defensive Player, and he finished the event ranked second in points with nine in six games.
After Sunday's Championship, BCHL Insider Garrett James had a chance to catch up with Bigos.
On the satisfaction of a job well done:
"It's just a great feeling. It hasn't really sunk in yet, but right now just overwhelmed with joy and the sense that we did everything we could and we came out with the win."
"We worked (really hard) and we've been trying for this all year. From the beginning of the year, everyone came into camp talking that we wanted to win the RBC this year. We owed it to ourselves, our fans, our owner Duncan Wray and our coaches Mark Ferner and Jason Williamson, and this is something that no one is ever going to take away from us."
On the sofy hands he displayed on Vernon's second goal:
"Had it all along, it was just a well-kept secret."
On Vernon's game-plan entering Sunday's contest:
"We just had to play a simple game; Pucks out at our blueline, pucks in at theirs and just try to outwork them from the dots to the boards. We just kept our heads down, our blinders on and kept working for that goal."
nice to see the oilers clearing space in the bottom 6 ??
With Bigos you mean they draft somebody that has actually won something??? I think this could upset the chemistry in the dressing room!!
to bad we couldn't have packaged him with someone for harding
could the oilers not of made that trade and got j bo's rights ??
What did the Oilers get in return for Brodziak?
I see, salary dump.
Ya, I don't understand this trade???? I would sure hope it is the begining....of something
I think it was just to get 1 more contract off the books. nobody wants our crap (MAP, JFJ) so at least Brodz got us something. Addition by subtraction I guess. He plays like a teddy bear, and they probably think Brule can be better in that role. Hopefully his faceoffs are good because we are in deep doodoo if not.
Blair Betts is coming. 4th line C. Penalty killer. Played for Tom Renney

He has sick skills...check out my post about what he did at under 18 championships...he is very skilled.
@ patty: cant find brules faceoff stats, mostly cuz I just woke up and am too lazy, but by all accounts he is a competent faceoff man. Brodziak leaving is a salary dump as well as getting rid of a player under contract.
Well I guess maybe brodziak wanted too much. Either way we have to make a move for someone that can win draws.

I realize but that doesn't haelp us this year.
@ Jason Gregor: funny that rajala went so late. would've thought all the teams that were taking guys so early in the first round would've taken a flyer on him late in the second or early in the third.
They need some energy on the 4th line. Not passive Brodziak's and Pouliot's
