A new King is made...

Jeremy Roenick was traded from the Flyers to the LA Kings. He claims he's "a Hollywood kind of guy." Surely a soft and cuddly* guy like JR won't get into any trouble hanging out in Los Angeles..

*read: arrogant and mouthy, but we love him just the same!

Mike Modano signed with the Stars after a roller-coaster two days of him saying he wanted to stay and his snakey agent saying there was no way he'd return to Dallas. He came back for much less money than he was offered elsewhere in order to play his whole career for the Stars organization. How often do you see that? There is a great article by Ralpg Strangis here.

Peter Forsberg has gone to the Flyers from Colorado...perhaps everyone's favorite blue-eyed Swede can lead them to victory. Not that I want that, my Stars will win, of course!
