If im Washington or Detroit, im seriously considering signing Vanek in the offseason.


Vanek-Backstrom-Ovie



Vanek-Datsyuk-Zetterberg



Sick

Also. Where are those people who had a hard on for Ranger this season? Saying how he's looked decent and he just needs "time"?

He's been better than Fraser lately

Announcement re: Lundqvist extension coming soon.




This shall somehow trigger.... TRADEzzzzzzZ

Anyone have Komarovs' phone number ?

- Big_Lightnin

Doesnt take much. I'd still take Fraser over him.


At least Fraser clears the crease and beats the poop out of people. You can tell his knee is bothering him though

Better win the next 2 because the 5 after that could be all losses. Bruins, kings, blues, hawks and penguins

7 game win streak. Easy

Alright, I've got a few questions after last night, because this is getting ridiculous.

If Mclaren and Orr aren't going to be fighting night in and night out, what's the point of having them? Our fourth line gets dominated nightly and no changes have come to rectify it. That's on Randy and Nonis.

Why the (frank) would you pull the goalie so early against a team like San Jose. They quite literally started circling the boat as Carlyle tossed chum in the water. Goalie should leave the net around 1:15 mark, tops (when we have definite puck possession in their zone) That's either the second or third game in this season already where he's yanked the goalie too early and we get scored on. Totally on Carlyle.

If two months into the season, none of your systems are working, the PP and PK have trailed off, and the team generally looks out of it - shouldn't that be time to change things up to the way you instruct them? Why is it solely on the players heads when the CStaff have really been regressing consistently since opening night?

Sens game Sat the only hope for a win in that stretch...

He hasn't done either since he's back, so no he doesn't.

Vague details. Hearing 7 years and $8+ mil per for Lundqvist.






That means he'll be 38 when his contract expires.

Yes.. Yes he does.

You need to look for Monsieur Dozzer.

He turns over the puck a lot.... #analysis

Yikes.

Simply not true. They didn't lose by much to one of the hottest and best teams in the league last night. You can't simply write five games off.

If there is a single goalie in the league I'd do it for, it's him. but that's a bit scary.

pulling the goalie earlier yields better results overall

If they don't win at least one game before that stretch, they could easily lose them all... Confidence is a powerful thing, and that's a terrible stretch of games to go in on a long losing streak

I'd do it for Rask before Lundqvist.

I was being generous in giving them a chance at beating the Sens ..Thats far from a given..

They lost last night...close doesn't count...

Darren Dreger‏@DarrenDreger1m
7 years, $8.5 per is believed to Lundqvist's extension agreement.

8.5 AAV



He's going to be the reason they wont be able to trade/sign for a player they need to take the next step.

Theyre gonna run out of cash
