One Wild Line

The fans of Minnesota are gifted with one of the top lines of the FNHL, make that "THE" top line of the FNHL. Patrick Elias, Marian Gaborik and Ales Hemsky make up the PAM line and boy do they make opposition teams slid off the frying pan!

With a combined point total of 113 and the top two league scorers in Gaborik and Elias the deadly trio make Minnesota one of the hardest teams to play against. It is one thing to shut down one player on an opposing team but to shut down an entire line of superstars hell bent on lighting the lamp, well you better bring your "A" game.

To put things into perspective each player is on pace to score 42 goals each this season. Has any other top line in the history of the FNHL ever score 40 or more goals each? I'll bet you can't think of it every happening before and it is because it hasn't. The Chicago Blackhawks in 2003 came close with Eric Daze (46), Theo Fleury (42) and Steve Sullivan (38) and again the Hawks in 2009 had Daze with 46 goals, Marian Hossa with 41 and Oli Jokinen with 30.

With a killer game deciding line like this in the FNHL it is no wonder why the Wild are considered strong favorites for the FNHL championship. As long as their three pistons keep firing, their engine will race pretty fast to the finish line with ease.

Bruins GM Multiplies

Boston (AP) - On Monday morning March 3rd, Bruins GM Jeff Nagle got his very own little prospect as he and his wife had a bouncing baby boy. Chase Nagle was welcomed into the world at 9am and weighed an impressive 9lbs 2oz. Both baby and mother are doing great.

"It was an awesome experience, definitely something I have never experienced before. He is a great kid so far and both me and my wife are thrilled with having him." said the GM.

Sleepless nights are going to be had for the rookie parent but don't expect that to hinder the GM's professional side of things. "I will be on alot of caffeine over the next few weeks. I expect I will resume my full duties as GM of the club next week. We have alot of adjustments to make but once we get in a routine, everything will be fine." added the GM.

"I was very touched by all the well wishes from the other GMs. Alot of them have experienced this and wanted to pass on their delight."
