I really don't have a problem with many of the teams in the NHL. Well, maybe Columbus, Nashville, and Atlanta. How did these places get teams?

I can't stand the Avs either. I used to be a big fan of Joe Sakic, back when it was Quebec, but now I can't stand him. A rivalry does that, though.

I'll say some nice things about the other teams mentioned (that way when I rip into them, I can point back at this). Vancouver: Naslund is a pure sniper, and they gave the Wings a tough run in the playoffs last year. I hate Bertuzzi, though. Dallas: Mike Modano has been a great player for a long time. I respect his play. I also like Billy Guerin, but I don't think he's the scorer he's seemed to be the past few years. Edmonton: Hey, they have Mike Comrie, a former U of Mich. player. They can't be that bad, then. Oh wait, yes they can!

Calgary: Jerome Iginla is awesome. And they got Chris Drury out of Colorado, thank goodness. St. Louis: Al MacInnis is a sweet defenseman. I also like Pavol Demitra.

One last note: Thank goodness for Mario Lemieux. He's carrying my fantasy hockey team.
