Poo says Kings and Oil big deal going down (E4) 
Big?
Unless the Kings are going to unload some serious salary contract players on the Oil....doubtful......not to mention Kings will want that Oil youth.....doubt the oil is going to give up the current/future talent for some big money half-ass talent.

Oh and that young goalie going to the Oil too. Probably for Scrivens.

What's hilarious is if Poo reports it, it means it's not happening. Vaportrade, folks.
Expect something from left field between Kings and some other team. The Sabres, Cats, and Flames are for-sure sellers...

like that! He's proven time and time and time and time and time again that he's the biggest fan.I sure didn't know where the Cup was during the off-season. He followed it EVERYWHERE!
None of y'all can add that into your resume.

You'd have to go back a few pages and read up but no, Finland is no joke. Your sentiments pretty much echo Dom's right up until Finland zambonied the ice the with team Canada in the world juniors and took home the gold.
Your top 4 doesn't represent international rankings, based on actual results over the past 4 years here is how the IIHF ranks the top teams.
Sweden
Finland
Russia
Czech Republic
Canada
United States
Switzerland
Slovakia

Last year's MVP, goalie John Gibson, has played 0 NHL games. The only Olympic teams who will have players from this tournament are the crappier teams that most likely won't win the tournament.
Like I said, I won't count Finland out completely, but they're definitely the lowest of the teams that actually have a shot at winning. I just don't think their superior goaltending can make up for their lack of offense.

Yea I agree with Dom, what does this have to do with the Olympics? The Junior championships are for players who are developing prospects. The Olympics will be full of NHL studs. You're comparing apples and oranges. Just to give you an example: this year's MVP of the World Juniors, Filip Forsberg, has 1 NHL goal.

Unpossible.
If you followed a real team you would realize the Stanley Cup Finals this year will be the Leafs V Finlandia
Both teams will play to a game seven draw.
Stanley Cup will be cut in half and given to each team.
Tim Lie-Weekly will have two parades for each half of The Cup.
Half of the Stanley Cup will be permanently on display in Finlandia......the half that has all the Leafs wins prior from '67 back.
