The team is back to .500 at 15-15 and are five points back of the division leading Mustangs in the EAST. This week is a good opportunity as the Thieves will play a three game series against the Red Ravens, followed by a tough tilt on Saturday against the powerful Big M's.

Daniel good to see Eric B getting some time. I know I'm such a Homer. On the other hand he does really well against Montreal. Think he's scored the last 2 times he's played the Canadiens.

[DanielNegreanu]

It's uncanny, I've used Belanger 4 times and he has 3 goals and 3 assists!

I guess you think AMogs'll be playing well coming back from that injury?tough decision.

[DanielNegreanu]

Are you kidding? In Mogilny's first game back he scored, and then in the next game had two goals and an assist.. I call that "ok" lol.

I suck at internet sarcasm. I guess I should be putting SW on the posts, but it seems to ruin the point of sarcasm telling people you're being sarcastic.In actuallatiy I love AMogs, I hate that Toronto let him go.

Actually, I think I'm going to put Mogilny on the block. Rumors have him going to Florida when Elias gets back because they won't be able to afford him. That would put me in a tough spot in Florida with Olli Jokinen, Weiss, and then Mogilny... I am going to put him on the block.

Yeah, it's been awhile since you made a deal.

[DanielNegreanu]

It's funny because I have NEVER been the type that makes big deals and I have NEVER been the type of guy to call players up from the farm until they have proven themselves. Totally new territory for me, but I'm liking my team a lot more today than I did at the regular season for sure.
