Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

10-11 NHL Nikolai Kulemin: 82 GP, 30 G, 27 A, 57 PTS, 26 PIM, +7
10-11 EHEC Ryane Clowe: 82 GP, 30 G, 37 A, 67 PTS, 84 PIM, +4

11-12 NHL Nikolai Kulemin: 70 GP, 7 G, 21 A, 28 PTS, 6 PIM, +2, season-ending surgery
11-12 EHEC Ryane Clowe: 53 GP, 7 G, 17 A, 24 PTS, 62 PIM, +4, two major injuries, including a regular-season ending one, although he came back during the playoffs to be a ghostly presence with the remarkable distinction of being the only player to fail to put up a single point in a 5-game rout of the Blues.

Coincidence??? I think not.

Better trade him to me before his value plummets even further...

Right... well, I could use another injury-prone float Russian and that Kartayev kid's not doing much for you, eh?

Alternately, I could transfer the curse to another 30 goal scorer. Crosby got 31, that's close enough. At least one must have been an empty netter.
