Morning Mashup: The winner of the MLHS FA Contest…

For the second year running, the MLHS Free Agency contest has ended in a draw. Four MLHS’ers predicted the signing of Tim Connolly, Burke‘s lone major free agent addition of the summer. Three of you (kaz, HHT, and Richard Ralph) correctly predicted a contract term of two years. None were close enough to the salary range to receive more than two points, and only luisad even remotely foresaw the Philippe Dupuis signing with his predicted addition of Pascal Dupuis (half-point rewarded). Rather than having you three predict his number of games lost to injury this season, we will solve this right here and now, with a good old fashioned hat draw. After drawing a paper slip from the hat, the winner of the Half Clapper, Top Cheddar t-shirt is (drum roll, please):

HHT

I ask that HHT please forward shirt size and address information to brownscombealec[at]gmail.com.

Former Canuck Rick Rypien found dead

Our lone link today, and it’s fitting as this transcends the sport. Yesterday, Rypien died of an apparent suicide at age 27 after a long battle with mental illness. Rypien was set to suit up for his hometown Winnipeg Jets in the fall.

    Not for a year…gotta book shit early apparently. I’m not too involved in the wedding planning but I figured if I’m going to have a photographer following me around all day she better be hot…so I want to meet her. ;)

    the only thing i miss from the old comments if being able to read the whole convo in one post IE the post your replying to is in italics. I know you can just click the reply to and it pops up but then you have to jump all over the damn place to read the arguement back and forth.

    “The Hockey News isn’t sold on the wholesale changes that have swept
    through the Panthers organization, predicting them to finish 14th in the
    East. Most consider this a preposterous prediction, as this team is so
    markedly better from top to bottom (outside of goaltending) they cannot
    help but improve.    ”

    And Leaf fans are delusional LOL
