Hamblin, 23, had 35 points in 64 games last season with the Bakersfield Condors, Edmonton's AHL affiliate. " Hope this isn't any kind of set back for Hamblin. He's a bit of a late bloomer but I've been pleasantly surprised by the way he plays so far. I think Hamblin played after. Matt Cooke gave that blindside headshot 2 thumbs up! That's so awesome.. the one downside of the Tkchuk trade is the probability of getting a similar photo with Kane's fist knocking Tkchuk's face sideways is a lot lower..

lol. I was looking for a smiling Cooke picture and that beauty came up. Had to post it. He's kinda showing a toothy grin there, no? :)

Hopefully Kane can find someone else to pound on the Lames.
