Ovi, Gretzky, Points Totals, and Greatness

Rookie Sensation Emerges In Anaheim
Which sounds better: The Anaheim Ducks stood pat at the NHL Trading Deadline, or the Anaheim Ducks did nothing at the NHL Trading Deadline? Doing nothing, in fact, seems to be their GM’s modus operandi. And to look at him, you would have to say that he’s quite confident in his decisions.
Kuzmenko Joins the Kings
Coach Jim Hiller wasted no time in declaring his intentions for new acquisition Andrei Kuzmenko, added just before the bell sounded to indicate that all horse trading must cease in the run up to the end of the season and playoffs.

In most modern-day cases, players move into coaching, scouting or broadcasting. But back in the days of the Original Six, those opportunities were few and far between.
