hmm, I'd lay it on lazy defending and stupid penalties, though Rinne does have a history of fizzling out in the playoffs

Pitt is 1/10 on the pp which was a 5 on 3 goal that Rinne should have stopped ....

Maybe I'll give you the momentum killer of the preds constantly going to the box but their pk has been great

One bad period and the preds D is terribly constructed

Good stuff

- Redmile247


So I don't like having a top 4 set up like this and you start by trying to say I call them terrible.
Okay.
How about I have an opinion that differs from others.

If that's been your opinion all playoffs than that's fine

There PK has been stellar.....but if you play with fire your going to get burned. Pitts PP has been great all year, if they adjust and Nash keeps taking moronic penalties, this series is over.

I liked him since January when I first started paying attention to him, hard to keep him out of the top 5 right now. His hockey sense is great, skating is meh, nice frame to grow into though and could even grow some more since he comes from a tall family. Not a really flashy/exciting player, but his playmaking and scoring ability is damn good. I still prefer Vilardi over him though.


Gonna try to watch this video bit by bit over the next week or so to get a better idea though. It's a lot easier than watching full games for sure.

Ya I agree. Watching about 20 minutes at a time and rewind etc. He appears to always be looking to get in the right areas in all 3 zones at both ends of ice.
Jokiharju appears to be a decent defenseman on that team also. Only got a chance to watch 2 Portland games this season. Like this setup. Thanks for the link.

Also agree with your earlier comment about holding on to CBJ 2nd. Build through the draft with as many bullets as we can get.

They have Magma being selected by Vegas in expansion draft.
Sheesh. Slim pickings.

Benning needs to not speak. The amount of stupid that comes out of his mouth is ridiculous.

I liked Miller but I am happy that Markstrom is taking the reigns.

I think he needs a couple more seasons to see true benefits of his picks and moves but I agree he is probably done after this season.

Is he? Why bring in a 4.5 mil goalie to back up then. Spend the money on a Dman or forward

Its a weird situation isn't it?

JB is saying..."Bring back Miller for a couple years, while we suck, but lets not try to suck too hard."

Its like - we know we're gonna blow, Miller gives us a slightly less chance of blowing too hard, but we don't care, but we kinda do care.

Or let Markstrom who we don't trust slowly take over the reigns and suck at an unknown amount....
