Tho you never got back to me on a bet, I'm still ready to man up.

If the Red Wings that played Dallas in Game 6 show up, Pitt is in trouble.

Detroit might just be the best team I've ever seen, tho my hockey enjoyment only goes back a decade.

Colorado Avalanche - News: Granato Named Head Coach - 05/22/2008

Colorado Avalanche Executive Vice President & General Manager Francois Giguere announced today the appointment of Tony Granato as the franchise’s head coach. Granato previously served as the team’s head coach from 2002-2004.

With Granato as head coach, the Avalanche compiled a record of 72-33-17-11, giving him the top coaching mark in franchise history based on points percentage (.647). Granato owns a .605 career winning percentage as an NHL head coach (72-44-17), the second highest in franchise history. Among active NHL coaches, Granato ranks fifth in career winning percentage behind Bruce Boudreau (.664), Dave Tippett (.632), Randy Carlyle (.630) and Mike Babcock (.621).


Didnt realize TG's #'s were so good with the avies.
I guess considering the other options out there, I'm not entirely dissappointed.

Until you've experienced the Dave Lewis factor for one year (as head coach), don't complain.

This guy was so bad we're paying him to not coach.
