Julien BriseBois stated today that forward Ryan Callahan has been diagnosed with degenerative back disease and recommended that he no longer play professional hockey.

I knew that was going to happen, we didn't just lose the Stanley Cup to the Blues, we lost Bergie's Selke trophy to the O'Reilly. I call bullshit on it's just based on the regular season, the reporters that vote can't remember that far back. The worst part was Bergeron was behind Stone in the voting to finish 3rd. The only good thing was seeing Stone's signifigant <sp? other HOT!!!!!! :-) I hate his scoring face too!!!!

Yes that too was a double kick to the ole sac!!!!! :-( " src="//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/superangry.png"> Bergy is tied with Bob Gainey with 4 Selkies..The league dont want a Bruins breaking the record..If he finished behind Stone, my guess is he'll never get another chance to win his 5th no matter how good of a season he has.. Fucking joke he never won it this year you ask me..

I have degenerated disc disease from my lower back to neck which of course is every disc in my back..I pity him 20+ years time when he's my age if he's having serious trouble already.. But he's very young to have DDD or DBD..

Clears cap space for Tampa who are up against it ..
LTIR does not provide cap relief. It simply allows a club to exceed their upper limit. It is far from an ideal situation and can handcuff teams who use it
- it limits who the club can recall - accruing cap space becomes very difficult - exceeding the limit can result in Overages
Depends: If the player is injured, they will likely "retire" from playing, but still claim their salary, which therefore has the cap hit. (Dupuis) If the player truly announces and signs a formal retirement, the cap hit is removed (Lecavalier)

I am hearing that the NHL maybe looking into hiring their own Doctor independent of teams to do a completely separate evaluation of the players in this situation. I do call shenanigans on cases like these as there have been too many convenient ones were teams in cap trouble all of a sudden have an older player that can suddenly no longer play. Players identified as being in this situation get independently checked out and if the case is found to be valid then I truly hope that they get better. Teams found to be pulling shenanigans should be penalized and stripped of multiple draft picks.

I could be wrong but Callahan to me does not seem to be the type of guy that would want to be involved in something like that. There are guys that want to play and I'd say he fits in that category. I agree though if teams are pulling shit like that for sure they should be punished.

It could be completely above board. There just have been too many cases like this in the cap era for me to fully trust or believe people. The simplest thing to do is have the league send him to an independent doctor and if that person finds the same thing then rubber stamp the case.

The circumstances around Hossa's seemed very fishy and he had three years left on the deal.

Price would definitely have to be right. I like Kreider at his current cap hit around that 4.75 mil mark and not so much on a multi year deal in the 7 million range like I am sure he would demand if he has an even comparable year to last year.

The draft is Friday. Some of the names I have been hearing for the Bruins. No idea who any of these guys are. Brett Leason 6'4 200 RW John Beecher 6'3 215 C/LW Bobby Brink 5'10 165 C/RW Nolan foote 6'3 195 LW Beecher it is, let's hope our scouting department sees something there. He definitely looks like a beast but hopefully he can bring some skill and vision to the table.

30. Boston Bruins - John Beecher, C, USA U-18 (NTDP) NHL Central Scouting ranking: No. 49 (North American skaters)
Beecher (6-3, 212) was a bit overlooked because of the top talent ahead of him at USA Hockey National Team Development Program Under-18 team, but his superior speed, especially for his size, allowed him to get up and down the ice and protect the puck in tight. He had 39 points (12 goals, 27 assists) in 56 games despite not seeing first-unit power-play time. He'll continue to develop his game at the University of Michigan next season.
NHL.com analysis: The Bruins get a potential top-six forward with great speed, size and the ability to dominate the puck. He didn't get the attention he might have had he played somewhere other than the NTDP, but he'll have the chance to showcase all his skills next season at Michigan.

I was watching last night and they were saying Beecher wont be a center in the NHL rather he will be converted to a winger. A lot of the guys on the US Team he played on have said that Beecher is the one player they would want to go to war with. For a kid who got buried behind the "top" prospects he actually did very well and I did hear them saying physically he is a man amoung boys. I am hoping that putting him on the wing he will be our 2nd line winger answer. If he can be a Schenn or Schwartz type winger the Bruins will be in very good shape.
