Well well well! Lindros retires, I am shock that he would retire. But I have several good reasons why Lindros is not a hall of famer. He didn't win a stanley cup (1 attempt).  He didn't want to play in Quebec (how ironic), force a trade with Philadelphia. His Flyers tenture ended so badly, when Bobby Clarke was the GM. The injuries was a huge factor, especially with the Flyers, Rangers, Stars, and the Leafs. He was once a great player, with a lot of potential. I really think it would be hard for him to get any consideration for the hall of fame. So that is my reason why he won't get into the hall of fame, I however do not control the Hall of Fame process.

  Did i misread the headline or something? It said Roenick signs a 1-year deal with San Jose. I guess the last 2 seasons didn't really convince him to retire. Well I for one have to give him his props to comeback. He wants to get 500 goals (should have got it by now), and win a stanley cup (something that he probably won't get). I don't want to bash the guy, but I really think that he has played on some bad teams (Chicago, Phoneix, LA Kings, and Philadelphia). He had one chance in 1992, but Pittsburgh was better than his Chicago Blackhawks that season. He nearly did it with Philadelphia, but it was not meant to be. Roenick' is a media darling when it comes to issues with the NHL. He would make a great analyst some day. But bottom line, I don't see him winning a stanley cup with the Sharks. They have too many young players, and not enough veterans. One of the reasons they continue to be ousted during the playoffs the last 2 seasons. There is no doubt that Roenick will help the Sharks in any way. Besides he has something to prove to himself, and the league. As much as I want to see him win a championship in San Jose, I just don't see it! But if he proves wrong, than so be it

A response to Snider should be next to exit Philly

  Yes, It is time to go, old time hockey in Philadelphia is no more. Snider needs to resigned as soon as possible. But Bob Clarke did the right thing in handing in his resignation. But he should have done it sooner. As for coach Ken Hitchcock (who was fired after Clarke resigned), he did the same mistake as he did in Dallas. The players were tuning him out, and not playing well. The goaltending was suspect almost the entire time, the players were not even scoring that much. Only 15 goals in 8 games, your leading scorer: Simon Gagne. There Defense was just the same as they were in the playoffs, last season. So they never improve on that issue. Bottom line is, this team is going to have a difficult time making the playoffs. They really need a quick turnaround in order to save there season. But this could be the first of homesweeping changes Stay Tuned!!!

 Hey  flyers fan! How is that you can beat everyone, but the Sabres. Lets face the facts, the Sabres were better than you. What's worst, Robert Esche didn't stop the puck (well not that much). Peter Forsberg was no where to be found, to some degree. The Flyers coach Ken Hitchcock vows that his team will be better next season. Well this team has not won a stanley cup since 1976. They have had 5 attempts to win it. But were beat by better teams. The Flyers need some playmakers and some goaltending, that is the bottom line. By the way Philly fans don't bother to comment (as far as defending your sports teams), because they suck!!!
