From Fantasy Hockey Forums/DobberHockey: preempting a possible Frolov to KHL in 2010 rumor
Interesting tidbit on a Frolov interview in Russian, translated by the often hilarious but rarely nuanced Google Translator: So, the headline of this, which most people in North America will see, in the translated version, is “Frolov: I am ready to proposals from Russia.” This is bound to stir up rumors of a...

Undoubtedly BoC is already in your blog aggregator, but I’m clipping out this bit anyway, since it’s so true and so much fun to contemplate: Whatever trade options GM Doug Wilson may have had at the draft (and we can only speculate there) are now fairly diminished.

From Fear The Fin: Back, meet corner
From the Sharks’ blog Fear the Fin: You can argue against the signing of Scott Nichol based on his skill, age, injury history, whatever. Same for Huskins. You could even make the case that the Rob Blake deal was evidence of poor decision making by the Sharks, or that they overpaid for Clowe. But, like it or not,...
