I still don't. Weber is more of an enigma. I would love to have him, don't get me wrong. I still don't think it will happen. Still, there has been a lot more talk about the Avs getting a number 2 dman. Weber is still kind of like a number one guy but you get the idea. Jack Johnson's name is also getting tossed around.

I say we trade for the Schenn brothers. You know, if the "quest" for Weber doesn't happen. Weber to the Avs? Holy moly. And I like myself some moly.

Of seven defensemen who could make an impact at the trade deadline.

From the article:

"Teammate Shane O'Brien could get a good look at the deadline too, but Quincey ($3.13 million hit) is the more intriguing option as a puck-moving defenseman who, as Adrian Dater notes, would bring back the biggest return. Thing is, he's leading the Avalanche in ice time (22:25), he's a restricted free agent next summer ... and at one point out of the No. 8 seed, might the Avalanche just want to hang onto him for a playoff run?"

Per dater! Looks like they are as close as ever to coming back!

Owen Sound Attack general manager Dale DeGray said on Wednesday that the injured centre will not play for London this season despite the Knights claiming the Stratford native on overage waivers on Tuesday.

"From everything I've been told, it's not going to happen," DeGray said. "I've talked to Colorado and they said he's not ready to play. He hasn't passed clearance for full practice. I've talked to Joey several times. He's not ready to play."

And it's unclear if Hishon will suit up at all this season as he's still struggling with post-concussion symptoms after taking an elbow to the head during the 2011 MasterCard Memorial Cup tournament in May.

On twitter that is! Heyooo
This is more of a heads up so Dave or Cheryl can add him to the list.

What?

HA! I got you! You totally fell for it!!! I know you did!! I AM ALL THAT IS MAN!!?!?!?

Anyway, Anthony Stewart is on waivers. Any takers?

Deadspin, fantastic article. "I'm walking around with a bullet in my head and a scar on my neck." Do yourself a favor and click on the link. What a great interview.

Aaron Musick from Hockeybuzz has an interesting point. You can win every game against the other conference, but if you can't take care of business at home year after year, the only thing that will improve are your players handicaps.

Couple of NW division foes in there. I think it's a bad sign when I was slightly worried the Avs would be there too..
