Speculating on Whether Regehr Should be Traded by the Flames
Based on a few comments on the Illegal Curve radio show, I put up a post on Matchsticks & Gasoline yesterday about the Flames potential to trade Regehr and why it’s time to do so.
The article is posted here.
Below is an excerpt from the article.
“Now before everyone gets their guard up and says Regehr is [...]

Here is a study that I did for Hockey Prospectus on NHL Team Architecture. Obviously since I posted it on HP, I believe they have a great site, so definitely take a look at some of the material from their other great writers too.

Jay Bouwmeester: Disappointment or Not Used Properly?
This is a story I posted on Matchsticks & Gasoline as part of our player preview series. Come take a look at some of the other articles if you’re interested.
Sometimes things just don’t work out like we thought. Items bought on eBay looked better in the picture than when they arrive in the mail, your [...]

Fireman Ed Should Pour a Stiff Drink
Rex Ryan may be the king of the F-bombs, but he better use as many as he can during the regular season. The Jets won’t be making the playoffs.
The Jets used up all their luck last year. There are no playoff-bound cakewalk games at the end of this season’s schedule. Opposing kickers are all out [...]

What is Darrelle Revis Worth to the Jets?
Revis Island can be a lonely place for receivers. At the moment it’s also a lonely place for a Darrelle Revis. The man who was hands-down the best defensive player in the league last year is not practicing or spending time with his teammates, and it HAS to be a frustrating way to follow up [...]

It’s taken two weeks of hype, ignoring a Pro Bowl that no one cares about, and way too much worrying about Dwight Freeney’s ankle. It’s finally here, the Dignity Bowl finale. Oh yeah, it’s also the Superbowl.
Every angle has been dissected, every fan is having a nervous breakdown (myself included) and the party food has [...]

Forget Leno vs Conan, we’ve got bloggers vs their moms! Take that NBC!
Sure, both Tonight Show hosts have infinitely more hair than chrome-domers like Marty and I, but Sports Opinionated has the football predictive skills of Kim, Maria, and Norma. We’ve been trying to sign Triumph, but he’s holding out for more things to [...]

There is always something intriguing about pitting professionals vs. amateurs in any field.
In photography, amateurs often enter professional competitions. In boxing, there’s professional vs. amateur tournaments. Golf has its Pro-Am tournaments that are very popular. In the realm of television, there are reality shows vs. non-reality shows. The ever crazy Fox television network had a [...]

Hey Jim,
It’s been a long time since we talked. I know we don’t actually talk, but sometimes I yell at you through my TV. I apologize for using such foul language, but sometimes I can’t control myself.
You sure took a lot of heat from the media and fans like me this week. It seems odd [...]

The Colts defense is one of the most under-rated stories in the league this year. New defensive coordinator, Larry Coyer, has brought a more aggressive edge to a team that already was quite solid. The element of pressure he’s added with a few blitz packages has really seemed to help on 3rd down defense.
They’ve [...]

Vince Young’s Back and Dangerous
I know what LL Cool J would say, but I think last night’s game counts as Vince Young’s comeback. Maybe it’s a breakout or a statement game instead of [...]

With Bob Sanders being placed on the IR again this year, it seems that Bill Polian and Jim Caldwell will have a major decision to make in the off-season.
While Sanders may be the former NFL Defensive Player of the Year, he misses almost as many games as he plays, and there’s no indication that he [...]
