I hope he keeps developing well and dominates at the pro level for us just so I can call him the Iron Curtain.

Yeah, Eli, I'm a fan of the sport not the business side. Could you do an article or respond to this comment about what dumping Theodore would mean to the team financially. He is a really sorry sack and I would love to see him go. We got rid of swiss cheese (Kolzig) for more swiss cheese while Huet got away. I think BJ, and I never thought I'd say this the past couple of years, should be the number 1.

I'm sure Varlamov will be honored to learn he has such a fan. I'm not sure, however, that dumping Theodore is a desirable move, let alone a contractual possibility within the NHL/NHLPA Collective Bargaining Agreement. Still, hip injuries can be tricky. We should get a good look at Varlamov now, and hopefully a great taste of things to come.
