		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll let Cassie over at Bolts Blog summarize this one up to a T:
Oh, look. Another trade. I was thinking that it was about time for that again. And they&#8217;re trading away another defenseman for yet another forward. Yep, that&#8217;s pretty much par for the course with this team so far this season.

The Bolts have been one of several teams courtin&#8217; and chasing Mats Sundin.  The following blockquote characterizes why, in most part, it&#8217;s a joke that the team is one of ten [...]]]></description>

I grew up a Mets fan, living in a small village on Long Island in New York.  I can remember, as a young kid, how everyone was going nutso for the Amazin&#8217;s of 1986.  I didn&#8217;t truly grasp it, but in the following years I grew to love and cherish [...]]]></description>
