I'm very curious to hear what the Canucks have offered Ronning, where did you
get your info. I'd bet McPhee didn't say that and if the agent said that, I wouldn't
believe him. Remember, Quinn is going to have a say in matters also.

These players probaly will make more than Ronning after arbitration;

McLean(~1mil can $)	 Courtnall(750 thou amer $)    Linden(800 thou $ can)	  

so that'll make him around fourth, dropping down a few more places, to eight isn't all
that bad (consider there is Lumme, Diduck, Adams, Lidster, Bure who ain't half bad either
and have been around as long or longer than Ronning).
I don't think Ronning making 500-800 thou is that bad, cripes he only had 71 points.

True and Ronning did well in the playoffs the last two years, but where did
that get the Canucks? And the Canucks don't have exactly a tradition
deep in playoff glory, so which previous Canuck do you compare him 
with? 

I think paying someone their *worth* is a tricky thing to do. I could
argue (and I wouldn't) that Ronning is the Canucks #1 center and
should therefore get paid as much as the Rangers #1 center, Mark Messier.
That, I hope'll you agree is a little(lot?) absurd. 

So where do you peg Ronning on the Canucks, that is a tough one, because there
is a good chance that he'll make more than Bure after this as well. Where
does it stop?
|>How they could have offered him such an embarrassing salary 
|> is beyond me.

Which you don't know or don't state. So how can it be embarrasing????

The arbitrator is going to give Ronning what he's worth, probably in
the range of 600-800 thou a year.  What do you think he's worth?
Are you happy that tickets range in 25-41 bucks a pop. Averaging only
14000 and change tells me most fans think it is a little expensive. Yet you
want to throw more money at Ronning?

Finally, this is what arbitration is for, so the two sides don't throw mud
at each other, while trying to sign a deal. Do you think it is a coincidence
that all three (and only three) Canucks going to arbitration have the same
agent??

Sorry, I still have to stand by Andy Mogg and what about Tom Barraso.

I understand that the game of the night is picked BEFORE it's played.  I
didn't see your post until the following day but even if I had seen it
beforehand, I would have disagreed.

You were at the Pens/Isles game, right?  It was not a very good defensive
game.  There were some beautiful defensive plays but it doesn't rank up
there as a stellar defensive performance.  The #s (2-0 score; 19 shots on
goal per team) are misleading.  They weren't standing each other up at
the blue line.  Each team lost the puck a lot; hence, the other
team would come up with it.  I don't call that good defense.  The Pens
were taking softer shots than the little kids at intermission. It was
pretty much a sloppily played game except for a few great individual
performances (e.g., Jimmy Paek).

You're not looking for criticism after a game?  Am I *NOT ALLOWED* to disagree
with your choices?  My point was that a game starring Brett Hull, who is off
to a surprising start, and Chris Kontos, who is off to a different kind of
surprising start, would be a darned good game to watch.

If you post in this group anything you say is fair game.  I'm not trying to
stir up a pot of trouble or insult you by any means, I'm simply expressing
an opinion.  We all have that right.

FINAL SCORE:  Clinton-1; Bush-ZERO.

Boy, it's sweet when the Leafs lose...it's even sweeter when I win
money betting against the Leafs.

The BlackHawks and the Leafs played a fairly intense game last night
in Chicago.  The only goal came on a 2-on-1 against Potvin where he had
no chance on a beautiful pass from Matteau to Ruuttu.

The Leafs had a goal waived off with about 7-8 minutes left when
they were called on a two-line pass.  It was very close, but the
radio announcers (the FAN, 1430) made a good point.  The puck isn't
out of the zone until it *crosses* the blue line, and it looked like
the pass was made when the puck was *on* the blue line.

Other news: Centre Peter Zezel injured his right knee last night.
            Rumors have the Leafs talking trade with Hartford for
            John Cullen.  If the injury is bad enough that he can't
            play Saturday night either Dave Tomlinson or Yanic
            Perrault could be called up since the Leafs are very
            short on centres.

Upcoming: Look for a 2 or 3 goal win for the Penguins over the Leafs
          at Maple Leaf Gardens on Saturday.

Standings: Leafs now stand tied for 2nd in the Norris.
Points:    Minn 15, Det 14, Tor 14, Chi 13, StL 11, TB 11.

Well it looks like it could be all over for Mr. Gretzky, at least for a
long while. The Star Tribune (Twin Cities paper) quotes Gretzky as saying
"I hope to come back, But reality is telling me maybe that is not possible.
I don't know what the future holds. I'm optimistic...the physical side of
the game and what it takes to play...I don't know."
later in the article it says "Gretzky has not ruled out surgery, but taking
this route could keep him out for as long as two years."

I hope he does not have to have surgery.  It would be a loss for hockey in
all aspects of the game.

If you are such an authority on Rangers "enforcers" why
haven't you mentioned Joey Kocur. He is the toughest Ranger
and definately the best puncher in the league. He would hammer
on Domi. Domi is just a typical cement head. Kind of like Rob
Ray except Domi can actually fight. I can't wait for Dec. 2nd.
Domi will go night-night!!! 

P.S. If Joey Kocur and Bob Probert weren't best friends that
would be a great fight.

  Actually they do!  I wrote this with Wayne Getzky on a U.F.O. somehere near
the planet Hockeyville.  It was the year 3035!  It was scary seeing the future!
I told Wayne, "We gotta post this to rec.sport.football" and he said no, he
insisted to post this to rec.sport.hockey.  And, since he was one of the best
players to play the game, I couldn't disobey his wishes!
  I asked Wayne why his tombstone read, "Missing since October, 1992" and he
said something about he couldn't take it with Bruce McNall anymore and he had
to get away.  He faked the back injury and left.
  I then asked him why he was flying in a U.F.O. with me.  I thought he was
uncomfortbale with flying in airplanes.  He told me that U.F.O.'s are easy to
fly and that it's extremely safe.  He says he has no fear of U.F.O.'s but
airplanes make him a nervous wreck.  Needless to say, this was an out of this
world experience for me!
  Oh yeah, I also asked Wayne why we had to put this under Joe Theisman's
predicitions and he told me we needed a code name.  He didn't want anyone to
see him.  But, you rec.hockey fans squeezed it out of me.  Just don't tell
Wayne I told you.  He'll be very upeset!
