no Stamkos
and if you think that Lou is heading into training camp without adding at least veteran on d-side... I think you might be wrong.

besides, no Carrick.. who should be above Corrado

Yeah but...but, that's not the point...

potential additions for leafs this off-season (apart from stamkos):

goal: vasilevskiy, john gibson, mrazek (howard bad contract and nmc).

d: dekeyser, barrie

fw: kreider (offersheet?), forsberg (offersheet?), kucherov (offersheet?)

e.g.: datsyuk ('s caphit) + dekeyser + mrazek
for
bozak + lupul + pitts 1st + sj 2nd 2017

- MaximusAurelius


What is Lou now holding people at gunpoint when making trades, why would Detroit do this?

BTW thank goodness we won the lotto so we didn't draft chychrun at 4th overall.

This assumes Pittsburgh makes it to the final?

After seeing the Letang hit just now, the league has a chance to show some consistency for the first time... ever. Two hits that are pretty much exactly the same (Orpik/Letang).

If Letang ends up with 3, I think there is no way Pittsburgh survives the series. You can't expect a rookie goalie to turn away 45+ shots for 4 games in a row.

I know nothing at all either, but I'll break it down based on my lack of knowledge, because it's fun.

55% Tampa (change is scary, they get to talk to him until July 1st, they are in the 2nd round, they are more legit to win the cup now than the Leafs may be for a very long time depending on how prospects pan out)

30% Toronto (Mom's home cooked meals, he makes lower net salary but never pays for a thing for the rest of his life, petition to induct him to legend's row starts circulating immediately)

10% New York (Party with Derek Jeter and Broadway Joe, good hockey market, gets to play with some alright players)

5% Everybody else

- TheMussel


yup... agree with everything...

on the humorous side... wouldn't it be great to have some local TO fan make a paper mache (sp) Stamkos, spray it bronze and put it up in legends row?

no way do Detroit do that trade.. if anything they try and move Howard - not Mrazek.

Agreed it was a bad hit. My guess is they give him two since the guy came back and took a run at him later.

Also I wonder if they will suspend Backstroke for kneeing Letang in the head from behind.

I meant moving forward. That D group without Letang is in rough shape.

A lot of shiit went down in that game last night. A lot of real cheap shots. OV with several blatant charging offences, that were not even called..

It's a bad rumour, the guy who will probably be made available is Fleury.
If Murray keeps playing at this level, he will be the de facto number 1

I could see two as well. Backstrom I think walks because it's pretty hard to "prove intent" which the NHL DPS seems to love doing.

Penguins fans are saying the Orpik hit was about a second after the puck was released and the Letang hit .6 of a second therefore not as bad.

My point is it's a fast game and not a lot of time in either case.

The Ovie charge on the other hand was deliberate and in my opinion he had intent to injure the guy

Could be but.... BUT... Letang out = Justin Schultz in. That hurts.



They are finally getting scoring outside of their top line which they haven't had in years. It will be an interesting finish to the series.
.HOHO.

For me it's not so much about the lateness but how he clearly jumps straight up into the hit.
