NHL Trade Deadline – A Hockey Fan’s Internet Keg Party

It’s March 3rd and it’s NHL Trade Deadline Day.  Come 3pm Eastern time, everyone in the NHL will have decided whether they’re going all in or selling off and cashing in until next year or figuring they’ve got the horses to keep going through the playoffs… Or they just don’t want to bone over their own future.

So many possibilities.  So many opportunities.  So many futures with the potential to be vastly improved or irreparably destroyed.  If anything else, I’d say it’s like sitting around watching and waiting to see if a tsunami was going to hit a major metropolitan area and wipe it off the face of the map.

Too soon?

Who is in and who is out? Those are the questions today and all morning and afternoon it’s going to be talked about over at Hockey Independent starting at 9 AM, bright and early with a live chat show.  XM Home Ice personalities are jumping in, assorted sports writers are jumping in, blogger psychos like Face Off Hockey Show’s Scotty Wazz are jumping in… It’s just enough to bring a tear to my eye if I wasn’t a cold-hearted son of a bitch.

Come for the trade breakdowns and information, stay for the warm fuzzies your host B.D. Gallof will give you as he plays the part of ringmaster to this hockey circus.

As for what’s going on here, as deals come down, I’ll post them and give my instant snap judgment on who wins and loses.  Yeah, I’ll be flying by the seat of my pants… If I opt to even wear pants that is.  See, things just got way more sexy.
