Does anyone else not see the video clips in Firefox? I'm in IE now. I should ceck it on some other browsers, I guess.


No trouble with Firefox. Videos play smoothly.

Back in FF. Was able to see the clips in Safari, Netscape and Opera. I like FF a lot, but version 3 seems iffy on my system.


Works ok for me on FF3 with Adobe Flash player 9.


It's good to hear Kovalev toeing the party line in all his interviews so far this season. Sounds like we'll be getting last season's Kovalev rather than the one from the season before who was happy to criticise and second guess the coaches.

Absolutely! I don't know about the party line thing, I want him to speak off the cuff and not sugar coat but, I am super glad to hear him sounding so team focused.

I am on record as being leery of Kovy's ability to repeat his performance of last year. We need last year's Kovy not the historical Kovy. And I don't just mean numbers, he could even trim a fair bit off those and still be very important, if he can bring the attitude and approach he showed last year.

What is really encouraging about his comments is that he is not jumping all over the suggestions of reuniting with Lang. He is not putting that selfish pressure on Carbo and the team. If he can stick to this 'whatever is best for the team I am willing to do' line of thought, then a Kovy with 70 points is still gold.

As long as he remembers there's no 'I' in team... or 'K' and its not spelled with numbers, we will be in good shape.

Kovalev's.... Beautiful... Hair.... Gone.......

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have officially lost all hope for this season. I'm the first victim to fall off the bandwagon.


The hair will grow as the season moves along. It's all part of the plan for reaching the playoffs. ;)
