I wasn't around waaaaaaaaaaaaaay back when in 2010 (RHYMING RIGHT THERE GUYS) but I'd assume most people were echoing this statement after the shootout against the Rags....

I remember just being happy that the Flyers had stoinked the Rangers. I wasn't even thinking about who they were gonna play.

There are still good players that can be picked. I dont expect all of Nurse, Zadorov, Ristolainen, Pulock and Morrissey to be gone really early.

I didnt see too many teams being interested, but thought Montreal might give him a shot.

Dont think Phoenix would be really selling right now, but would you be comfortable getting a head jump on Boyd Gordon if the price is cheap? Wouldn't mind a move like that.

- flyer_nutter


I like Boyd Gordon. But I wouldn't trade for an impending UFA unless the cost is really cheap.

Did they ever even say how he got concussed?

He's actually been concussed for a couple years

I would rather they win as much as they can, and go as deep as they can. Even if just for the experience.

Under no situation would I like to see the team end off the year in a complete tailspin. It will be good for the kids to work through this a bit and be part of a bit of a turn-around, before the season ends.

- flyer_nutter


Exactly. I like that they are sticking with this group.

Even if they don't get in (which is highly likely), I want to see how the team responds. I want to see how Gus responds to bigger minutes. Can Oliver Lauridsen play in this league? I want to see Brayden Schenn start fulfilling some of his promise. I want to see Sean Couturier play with more skilled people.

For the Seth Jones fans he had 2 goals in the round 1 series clinching game for Portland.

I think Schenn needs to be center full time. I don't think the wing is doing him much good.

2nd & 3rd rounders for a guy with less goals than Martin Brodeur? Yeah, i'd say they did OK

That would explain the no contact jersey he's been wearing all season.

The Bruins have 46 shots on goal and there is still 10 minutes left in the game.

What a stud Lehner is. I think Ottawa is going to move Bishop tomorrow. Would be criminal to send Lehner down.

Any news of worthy discussion?

I mean I saw the report saying we've kicked the tires on Ryan, Vanek, and Yandle but who the hell hasn't?

Supposedly in on Jamie McBain, but Pitkanen hurt his leg on an icing touch up and went off on a stretcher, s that's probably dead now
