Hate the cap dropping... Reduces the amount of players you would like to add...
But it will be nice to see our rooks playing next year

- RF_4eva

That's why they allow the 2 amnesties ... You can get out of bad contracts that have put you up against the cap

I think Kes will get a ton of minutes against the other team's top line. I'm not gonna # the C's, but i'm sure there are times when we'll see 2 on the ice together. Kes and Hank will eat up approximately 40 minutes so that doesn't leave much for Roy, Lappy.
- golfingsince


A handfull of Kes' minutes are on the ice the same time as Hank on the PP most nights so that leaves a little more for Roy than at first glance. The second PP unit is all Roy's as well as time on PK providing he improves on his faceoffs which are looking no better than Schroeder's his last 5 games. That should improve... he knew he was probably getting moved so he should tighten that up now.

I spanked DK, it's 7-3 right now and I can still win the assists category if Koivu/Ryan can get more than 2 tonight

They are a good team , maybe not the deepest on the blueline but they have suter logging over 30 a night , and their forwards are quite offensive minded while playing a defensive system , pomminville helps , at the start of the season I was skeptical of them but now I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Canucks have to go to minny for game 1

30 minutes for Suter?

Dump the puck into Suters corner, hit him hard, rinse repeat.

Also don't think playing suter will be the same as Nashville series ... He has players to pass to with skill now

Since kipper didn't see TO as a viable option he is just going to retire instead

How pumped is everybody for that battle for 5th place in the pool between PKer and Scooby? Should be a war.

Bets? Predictions?

Slow day, indeed. Probably fitting, since the Canucks are playing PHX tonight

I'd have to go with Scooby, as well. PKer will need a big week offensively, and from his goalies—hits and blocked shots are almost gimme's for Scooby.
