always the best time of 
conferences. Until video conferences are in full utilization to ensure everyone is on board and there 
that being said, many teleconferences I have participated in 60% of the people were not even needed.
Once I called qwest to get a rough estimate on some fiber and had 9 engineers on the line

The upside to working the AM shift is that day is nearly half over already.

Morning new box, live from the IAH B84 gate mess. The good news is our plane for BTR has landed. The bad news is it landed in AEX. Fun fun.

Good so far. They replaced Martin with two guys who eat minutes, block shots, and are capable of offense. Volchenkov is a beast not unlike Stevens, and Lou gave him a no-trade.
Tallinder is a good medium-career guy...31 years old and established.
Look for them to make a deal to keep Kovalchuk. Lou did say that they're not done, and he has overpaid forwards that could be bought out or traded to get the cap room for Kovy. If I were betting on it I would look for Langenbrunner and/or Zubrus to be ushered out. Langenbrunner was a leadership fail toward the end of last season, and someone that age and with that resume should never whine and cry no matter how much of a tool the head coach is. Zubrus has not lived up to the hype; another streaky Russian a la Viktor Kozlov and Alex Kovalev.
