News Update

Breaking News: Terry Murray has been relieved of his duty as LA Kings Head Coach. John Stevens will be replacing him on an interm basis. Sources tell us that it is unlikely he will stay as head coach. There has been speculation that he will be replaced. I have also been told that if he is to be replaced it will be for Daryl Sutter or Randy Carlyle.

Trade: The Anaheim Ducks have traded Kurtis Foster and Timo Pielmeier to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for Rod Pelley, Mark Fraser, and a 7th Round Pick.

Talent Analysis:
Timo Pielmeier: Projected as a back up goalie with unstable potential. Has some flaws. Could be a good back up goalie or a top goalie prospect. Example: Scott Clemmensen or Alex Auld

Mark Fraser: Projected 5,6,7 D-Man. Not many flaws. Could be a third line defenseman or top AHL defenseman.

Rod Pelley: ^ Read above.

Christmas Special: Buffalo Sabres

Team Wishlist: Milan Lucic and Jordin Tootoo's heads on a stick. This was pretty obvious to most of us here at TwoBoredTeens. We wonder what would happen if someone else decides to run Miller over... Do the benches clear? Does Ryan Miller go HULK SMASH! ? So many questions...

HULK SMASH!

Paul Gaustad's Wishlist: Get a time machine and go back in time to fight with Milan Lucic when he ran over Miller.

Christmas Special: St Louis Blues

Christmas Wishlist: St. Louis Blues
By: Andrew Allsman https://twitter.com/#!/TrueBlueBlogger



The Blues have already received an early christmas present with the return of David Perron who before returning, missed the last 97 games, but what other presents are the Blues looking for?

• Stay Healthy- I don't think I can emphasize how key this really is, especially for a team that has been plagued by injuries the past 2 seasons.  The Blues (as mentioned above) now have a healthy David Perron, and only 3 key players remain injured (McDonald, Huskins, and Crombeen).  If the Blues remain healthy, they are as dangerous as any team in the Western conference.

• Get the PP going- The Blues powerplay has been dreadful this season, and its the main reason why they are not at the top of the Western conference.  The Blues sit dead last in the entire league with a pathetic 10.4% conversion rating on the PP.  Under Hitchcock the Blues have remained inconsistent on the PP execution, but in recent games they appear to be getting more chances and eventually those chances will convert to goals.

• Finalize deal with a new owner- Whether that new owner will be Matthew Hulsizer or someone different, this is a huge step for the Blues organization moving forward.  The Blues are playing their best hockey in, well, a long time.  So its great to imagine the kind of record they could post with the funds to sign another "big name" player.  The deadline for Hulsizer to buy the club is December 31st, and its speculated that a deal will be done before than so this could truly be a "Christmas present" for the Notes.

• T.J. Oshie remains consistent- T.J. Oshie has arguably been the most consistent Blues player of late with 9 goals, 10 assists, and 19 pts. in this still young season.  If he keeps up his tenacious checking and his stellar puck handling then he will make the Blues that much better.

The Blues have a lot to be thankful for, and with the addition of these "gifts" they could be one of the most dominant teams in the league.  Hopefully the holiday season remains kind to the Blues as they embark on their journey to the Stanley Cup Playoffs and the ultimate prize, Lord Stanley's Cup.

Christmas Special: Boston Bruins

Team Wishlist: A bag of fairy dust to give them the luck they’ll need to repeat as Stanley Cup champions since the Detroit Red Wings did it in 1996 – 1997. Come on, who doesn't want to win another Stanley Cup? If you don't you're in the wrong freaking league... Also, for Tyler Seguin to wake up earlier and eat breakfast because it is the most important meal of the day right?

Author's thoughts: I wonder if players get in trouble for eating the wrong things at breakfast. I wonder if like Tim Thomas gets a stern talking to if he eats Frosted Flakes instead of Cheerios?

 ARE THE WAY TO GO!

Christmas Special: Anaheim Ducks

Wishlist from the team: Scott Niedermayer to come out of retirement and go play for them. He's only 38 right? Instead of Francois Beauchemin and Cam Fowler could you imagine Niedermayer and Beauchemin playing together? That's one great lineup...

Side Note from the writers- Niedermayer is only 38? He looks older than Chris Chelios...

Does the first one not look as bad? BRING BACK THE ORIGINALS!

Christmas Special Intro.

So as stated before we have a "Christmas special" for all our readers. If you're hoping it's the writers making an awkward video talking about the spirit of togetherness and giving gifts, you can keep dreaming. That has nothing to do with hockey (maybe next year if we hit 2500 views we'll make a video?). To continue we have a full set of hockey "Christmas lists" ready and we will be posting two of them a day until December 24th ! They are all written by the writers at TwoBoredTeens in collaboration with a new writer named Geoffrey aka Geodude Monsters.

I hope you guys will enjoy reading it as much as we had fun writing it.
