Mike Richards signed a 12 year, $69 million dollar contract yesterday that will keep him a Flyer for most of his career. It averages out to $5.75 million per year. Richards has been heralded as the future Flyers captain for a while now, and though he wears the ‘A’ he always seems to be the one talking to the refs during penalty calls. He was also known for his leadership during his minor league and junior hockey career.
Deals like this are always risky. Yeah you have the guy locked up at what the Flyers are hoping is a good price, but the sheer length of the deal means that you may never get it off your books. The Flyers can afford to send Richards to the minors so it wont count against the cap if need be, so they have that going for them at least. I don’t think I really need to go over the specifics of the risks deals like this include as that seems to be have been done to death when Rick DiPietro signed his 15 year deal.
Again, the amount is based on potential. Holmgren is hoping Richards continues to develop into the two way center and leader they hope he would be when they drafted him. But also, for the next seven years the Flyers will be spending $12.25 in cap space on Briere and Richards. It’s a risk, but one Holmgren obviously feels is worth it.

NHL Wishlist 2k7
As the Chanukah/ Christmas season approaches, we all get certain things in our minds such as gifts, snow, long lines at the mall, gifts, Santa, his elves and reign deer, the same twelve songs played 24-7, gifts, movies like Christmas Story, Miracle on 34th Street, Christmas Vacation, Die Hard, Bad Santa, BOOZE and finally gifts.
So in the spirit of the holiday we at 2 Man Advantage (or 1.5 Man Advantage if you’ve paid attention recently) have put together our Chanukah/ Christmas wish list for the holiday season.
1) The Reebok Edge Uniforms cast to the seventh level of hell
It’s probably debatable who hates them more between the fans and players, but I’m going to say the players because the fans can just not buy the crap, the players have to wear them. As of November Reebok already stated they would be going back to the old fabric because the new fabric made the players feel like they were in a sauna. It’s been gone over many times, but the truth is this: the new uniforms look ridiculous and most of the improvements that were touted have already been cast aside or negated by the players adjusting things (such as wearing a bigger jersey cause the normal streamlined size is too constricting). NHL and Reebok need to swallow their pride and money, and cast these jersey’s away and go with the old ones. You will have much happier players and fans (seeing as how a nameless replica is $115 US Dollar up from $85 US Dollar).
2) Chris Chelios to retire
I’ve never hidden my disdain for the spoiled, whiney brat that is Chris Chelios, and frankly I think the guys body is kept going out of spite for everyone. He’s nothing but a whiner and crybaby, and has created nothing but havoc in the players union (notice how he didn’t have a problem with Bob Goodenow reading players e-mails but he did with Ted Saskin?). The best thing he could do for the league is to retire and not show his face again. He’s the only person I know that’s 45 with a 5 year old mentality without suffering from any form of mental disabilities.
3) Wayne Gretzky steps down as coach
Listen Wayne, you were a great player but you can’t coach. The Coyotes have been anemic under your reign, and while they lack a lot of top end talent, they should be better than they are. I figure at the end of the season he will step down and say something to the affect of “my heart wasn’t in the right place” or some other BS excuse, but what it boils down to is this: he isn’t a good coach and the best thing he can do for his team is let someone else run the bench.
4) No more instigator rule
It was created to keep tough guys from going after star players, but in reality they still go after the star players but the star players team can’t do anything about it because if they retaliate they get a host of penalties. Still in my mind from last year is Sheldon Souray getting a host of penalties for starting a fight with Colby Armstrong after his hit on Saku Koivu. The rule has done the opposite of what it was supposed to, so getting rid of it would be nice.
5) The Fox Tracks puck to return
Yeah, I am joking, but you probably hadn’t thought about this in a long time until I just mentioned it, huh?
6) More Inventiveness for TV Broadcasts
The Rail cam last year was a start, but it also needed a lot of perfecting. Putting a commentator between the benches was also something else added. The NHL, Versus and NBC, TS, CBC and whomever I am leaving out need to continue to add more things like this to add appeal to tv broadcasts and hope to catch more casual viewers.
7) An end to the Scott Niedermayer/ Teemu Selanne/ Peter Forsberg stories
Really, this is just plain ridiculous. Every fricken week some jack ass member of the press has to bring up something about them. ENOUGH ALREADY! Every hockey fan is sick to death of hearing about these three and the ramifications of their decision. Even with Scott Niedermayer back they’ll still be talking about him and thus going to refer to the others in the same article. I’m about ready to break all their legs and make their retirement definitive just so this crap ends. My god.
8) Gary Bettman to step down
He’s done some good things, but more bad things. Of course seeing as how he just got a big raise at the beginning of the year, this isn’t going to happen. As long as the NHL keeps making money, he wont be let go.
9) An end to the ridiculous ideas of increasing scoring
Forget bigger nets, forget new uniforms and definitely ignore Darcy Regier’s idea of not allowing defensemen to block shots (what the hell is he thinking?) The refs seem to be making as many BS calls as regular calls now, and that doesn’t help. Plus instead of making the nets bigger, why not just reduce the size of goalie equipment again? And don’t just leave it at the leg pads. Reduce the size of the shoulder pads, blocker and glove pads also. Goalies are more talented now than before, and definitely more acrobatic, so they don’t need these ginormous pads to stop the puck
10) JR Hockey to take his show to the retirement home.
I’m sorry I hate this guy. Sure he is a decent sound bite at times but come on this is 2007. We need to start marketing the newer guys not this old has been! I don’t care if he played well for a month or so. He still gets as much hype now as he did in 1997 and it’s unwarranted.
11) NBC to market the NHL
This is sort of a pipe dream but it needs to happen for the game to become relevant again. I like what Versus has done overall but still no one watches the games anymore. We need to have NBC push the shit of the games they have and have the fanbase tune into it. I’m digging how they are already doing that with the Pens and Sabres game but they need to do it for every game. I want people to say man I’m looking forward to that Rangers vs. Canadians game on NBC next week like we do now with football, basketball, etc.
12) Referee Consistency
Yet another pipe dream but a guy can wish can’t we. How many times have we seen something called in favor of one team and than not returned when the other team does the same? NHL needs to spell out these rules and to actually be willing to fine these POS refs that think they are bigger than the game itself and thus need to be the focal point of it.
13) Good announcers
My god does hockey have some of the WORST announcers in the business. We either get the homers, the misspronouncers, annoying voicers or even the no nothings. I would kill for some announcers to rise up from the level of mediocrity and to finally bring some umph to the game. Don’t get me wrong we have some out there now but there is also a whale of a lot of filth around.
14) Less Cotton Eye Joe
If I hear this piece of shit song one more time during a game I'm going to yell. Actually, I do already. Seriously, COTTON EYE JOE has no place in our game of hockey. More organs would be music to our ears. Seriously, nothing like a good tune on the organ to get me in the mood for some hockey.
So in the spirit of the holiday we at 2 Man Advantage (or 1.5 Man Advantage if you’ve paid attention recently) have put together our Chanukah/ Christmas wish list for the holiday season.
1) The Reebok Edge Uniforms cast to the seventh level of hell
It’s probably debatable who hates them more between the fans and players, but I’m going to say the players because the fans can just not buy the crap, the players have to wear them.

All Star Shenanigans
It’s that time of year again where us fans can vote for our favorite All Stars into a game meant to display the best skills and entertain the fans but usually doesn’t do the trick. As always, there are questionable players on the ballot, and while we know you cant make everyone happy, let’s take a look at the ones we feel really aren’t deserving of being there (official names on the ballot at the end of the article).
But first let me say this. I know a lot of people see the All Star game as a joke, and I won’t try and prove otherwise. You like it or you don’t. But really, did they have to make the jerseys a joke too? At least give us a decent set of jerseys for the damn thing. (jerseys can be seen here: http://nhllogos.blogspot.com/2007/11/atlanta-all-star-jerseys.html)
Should not be on the ballot:
Eastern Conference
Ray Emery, Ottawa Senators
What exactly has he done for this? No, honestly, tell me, what has Emery done for a nomination?
Bryan McCabe, Toronto Maple Leafs
Maybe two years ago, but not now. McCabe is pretty good, but not all star worthy.
Ryan Whitney, Pittsburgh Penguins
Horrible in his own end, afraid to shoot the puck and even more afraid to be hit. Sergei Gonchar should be put here ahead of him no ifs ands or buts.
Slava Kozlov, Atlanta Thrashers
Kozlov is good, but not elite, and that’s who should be on the ballot.
Justin Williams, Carolina Hurricanes
This must be some kind of sick joke. Not that Williams is bad, but to suggest he is at the level of the best in the game is absurd.
Western Conference
Nikolai Khabibulan, Chicago Blackhawks
Khabibulan has yet to be anything close to All Star caliber, or even the goalie that won the cup in Tampa since he came to Chicago.
Rob Blake, LA Kings
He may still be better than a lot of defenders in the league, but Blake isn’t the same player he was. Not a huge stretch, but still.
Ed Jovanovski, Phoenix Coyotes
Another guy that hasn’t been the same since he switched teams, Jovo has yet to provide the Yotes with the defensive stalwart they needed, and that tells me you shouldn’t be here. He’s doing better this year, yes, but not his old alls tar caliber play.
Mike Modano, Dallas Stars
Talk about living off name, Christ. Ok you’re the highest scoring American born player, but you’re not still the player that got you to that status.
Keith Tkachuk, St. Louis Blues
Not that he’s taken a nose dive in recent years, but it’s enough that there are better options than him.
On the bubble:
Tomas Vokoun, Florida Panthers
Has been shaky in net at times, but the potential is there.
Bill Guerin, NY Islanders
Not too bad, but his main strengths have been things other than scoring this year.
Sheldon Souray, Edmonton Oilers
I’ve always felt he was a bit over rated, and the fact he took so long to sign in the off season tells you he wasn’t as impressive as some make him out to be. Plus he’s been injured much of the year.
Jonathan Cheechoo, San Jose Sharks
Still living off that Richard Trophy I see…
David Legwand, Nashville Predators
I’ve always been a fan of Legwand, but not this much.
