Bad fit. Can you see the Sedin Twins buying into that? I can't.

Malone is a pass for me. I might think otherwise if they get him dirt cheep.

I have to admit, I'm really disappointed that Bylsma is coming back. Was reading some stuff on TIOPS and It leads me to believe we'll see a repeat of our playoff failures next year regardless of what the roster looks like.

I agree so much with this.

Have said it before and will say it again. Shero said changes were coming. I'm hoping it was something different than not resigning Kennedy, Jeffrey, Murray, Morrow, Iggy; trading Niskanen or Engelland. We have the same coach back; we will probably have the same goalie back (Mr. Confidence problem in the play-offs). So, where is this change? The only way to change this roster is deal Letang. If he is back, I see the same old poop in the play-offs happening.

Well, I think Colorado is failing at taking the best player if they take MacKinnon.

Seabrook and Leddy are only 2 first round d men playing in the Final which includes two Norris winners. Easier to find defensemen.

So, they are fine with having 50-point seasons? That won't help them in their contract year.

MacKinnon types seem to come around every year. Last year we were talking Yakupov; next year McDavid. While we heard about Morgan Reilly, Reinhardt and Ryan Murray, they were held in the same breath as Jones. Not that close either.

Maybe they'll buy into his system...it's not like "their" way is working in Vancouver, right?....but it is a hard call here...they are past their 30s.

wow.... what a turnaround.

Sounds like they pulled a Toronto. Can we find a way to get Bickell in the offseason?

Bickell please if dupuis leaves. Always was a fan of stalberg too

Random question...who's the better player here IYO: Paul Stastny or Cody Hodgson?

would you take him over dupuis?

I think he'll cost as much as Brower or a little more.

I guess we won't be seeing that Boston troll around here anymore spouting off about Iggy making the wrong choice.

For what we lack (physical play/net front presence), probably yes. I must admit it's a tough call.

What a finish! Must be awesome crazy to be a Hawk fan right now.

Glad the Beantown team didn't win, grew a big dislike for them and their fans when the Penguins were getting trounced.

the noise that came from oduya was downright scary

i think he is going to get paid pretty well according to this postseason. i could see pushing 3 mil

Kane with the conn smythe. Almost as much as a joke as ovi winning hart

Hard to tell. I just purchased a Dupes jersey two months ago, so ...

With the way money is being thrown around - Gonchar, Streit ... he will get more than three million.

Tough to judge... Stastny is regressing in a way and Coho is only going up. I would take coho just cause his ceiling is higher

i respect him, and would take him on the pens, but for a guy who scored single digits this year, god thats a ton

Perhaps a bit more. Brower got paid. He'll want close to his money ($3,5M maybe)
