Naturally, a guy with his talent level would really be in demand, especially with the trade deadline just around the corner. The four teams rumored to be most interested are Montreal, Calgary, Columbus, and Minnesota. What do you think one of these teams would be willing to give up to get him, and do you think the Coyotes would take it?

I'm especially interested in the Flames perspective, as I'm a fan and know that they've been after Jokinen for awhile now.

What do you think? Are the Pens just desperately trying to find wingers that have some chemistry with the Kid?

Bonus question: Tortorella as the Rangers' new head coach? How many games before he throws Lundquist under the bus? (I kid, I kid...)

Crosby at Center, Ovechkin on Left, Iginla on Right.

What about you?

I'm a bit of a light sleeper, and my roommate's cat has an extremely annoying habit of pawing and pushing at the door and meowing loudly when she wants food or attention. This is especially annoying when she does it an hour or two before my alarm clock goes off.

Does anyone know of any good methods to prevent this kind of behavior? I know that cats are difficult to train in general (I've heard some say that they are untrainable animals), and this one never seems to get the hint; I pretty much ignore it, yet it still pesters me almost every morning.

I know I did, just as I was recruited by a friend to watch it in the first place. Best cop show ever...

1: What are your 3 favorite teams, and why?

2: Who is the best forward in the NHL right now? What about defenseman and goalie?

3: Which teams will win the six division crowns this year?

4: Which teams are a "write-off" this season?

5: Which teams and players will surprise this season? And will they be good surprises or bad ones?

6: Which NHL Captain out there is the best leader for his team?

7: Who will win the Art Ross, Hart, Rocket Richard, Vezina, and Norris trophies this year?

8: Which team(s) will pull a "Philadelphia Flyers" and go from the doghouse to the penthouse this season?

RW Milan Hejduk (16)

RW Adam Burrish (24)

D Sergei Zubov (8)

D Johnny Oduya (22)

G Evgeni Naokov (2)

G Chris Osgood (3)

G Tim Thomas (14)

I think I did fairly well. There are some guys I went too early on, and I'm a little concerned about my defensive depth and ability to get PIMs. How did everyone else's drafts turn out? What were the steals and reaches that you saw this year? What are your concerns regarding the team you put together?

Does this word have any use that cannot be served by using the word addictive in its place? Do you think it may just be an issue of connotation? Maybe "addicting" is a cutesy, less frightening version of "addictive".

Either way, I hate the word Addicting.
