Indeed.

Chevy's inaction has "tank" written all over it for next season. Bet a lot of young guys get their fair share of ice this year.

kane was a better option

Don't imagine Kane or Buff will be playing with the Jets past the trade deadline... Ladd too.

malkin for bogo, clitsome and wheeler

Done. Hell, we'd even take Fleury off their hands too.

Well...I guess we'll kick the tires with the Jets. Kane would be perfect for the Pens. Ladd could be cheaper and he's a gamer.

Been hearing more and more about Malkin going... and not on here... makes me wonder if there is something to it?
- RFawkes

No truth whatsoever. Malkin and Crosby are Penguins for life. On the other hand, we have a few D-men ready to jump to the big club. Valuable ones.

For life or until some Donk offers up a #1 D-Man, top 6 forward, utility forward, prospect and 2 firsts anyway.

Couple predictors from fans of Eastern teams predict the Oilers sneak in. Curious. Can't see it myself.

Putting stock in Tanners opinion is like investing in Blackberry, IMO.

Feel like Yak will bounce back, and while the defense is still a mess, you SHOULD have the benefit of being underestimated by some of your opponents. Probably split the series with VAN at least, and will probably be good enough to beat up on NASH, ARZ, etc.

I THINK your days in the basement are probably over for at least a couple seasons.

He also said RNH will win the Art Ross this year and Yak will score 30-40 goals...

If Yak hits 25 and nobody on the team regresses too much, you're probably on the bubble.

no. just no. losing 4 games in a row and falling flat on your face in game 7 at home is probably the most embarrassing defeat in NHL history. just dont even try to compare it to losing to Montreal in a hard fought series...just dont.

Your comments are puzzling....do you really think our defense is still a mess? Not sure it's solid but looks on paper alot better than last year.

Also....you suggest we are out of the basement for at least a couple of seasons...do you see a massive regression a couple/few years?

Your defense is a mess because there's a bunch of lines all in between them and stuff.
