I personally would love to see what E.Kane could do on an offensively gifted team. with centers like Sid & Geno, I could easily see Kane scoring 35.... Yes he is an A$$ Hat but the guy can dominate a game physically (when he wants too) skate, score, and fight... A lot of upside...

No to all of them. The only one I would consider is Brassard and I’m not giving up Sprong or this years first round pick. I would sell high on Hornqvist because there is no way I’m re-signing him this offseason. Hornqvist and Hunwick to Vegas for Haula or Lindberg and Merril.

You said that Cullen was dead, and then referred to Cullen as an "it."

Flyers #1, with allowances to like the Penguins if they're not playing the Flyers.

I've already taught my daughter to say "BOO RANGERS!" whenever she sees their logo/hears their name.

The Pens don’t need wingers.

If they upgrade at center with Hunwick being the only roster player leaving, the Pens are completely stacked through four lines and I’d dare say unrivaled in that department.

I'd hold onto Hornqvist. Yes, he's walking at the end of the year, but having him in your lineup for this postseason gives you the best chance on winning unless you can flip him for a clear positional upgrade.

Quick little story there:

She has 2 stuffed puppies that she likes more than any other ones. She told me that one of them, Toby, was a Rangers fan. I told Toby that if he didn't change his tune, he was going to get a Hulk Hogan-style leg drop. Well, Toby didn't, so daddy had to give Toby a leg drop. Now, whenever she sees the Rangers, she says to him, "Toby, don't like the Rangers or you're getting a leg drop."

It's just good parenting.

They can also trade his rights for at least a little something.

Oh. It was a line from BvS I was quoting. Cullen could pass for a creepy clown as well.

I'm in favor of keeping Horny for the playoff run. Yes to dumping Hunwick whenever possible.

I remember when Freddy Sr. was Father of the Year for giving his son a small loan.

So much. The Dark Knight trilogy and the most recent Superman movie, Man of Steel I think it was called, were very good. Everything else is just so terrible.

Justice League sucked. SS sucked. But I tremendously enjoyed BvS. I watched the ultimate/extended edition. Its one of the few superhero movies I can watch again and again and notice new things or gain new perspective on some of the characters. Until Black Panther, I was getting sick of Marvel reusing the same campy/corny plots in every movie.

Congrats on the bub Matchettman. Nice to hear about the Rangers love!

I think you'll be surprised when the newbie comes out & starts cheering for the Blackhawks!

pens fans currently act like sprong is an untouchable god. last time i looked simon, ZAR, kuhnhackl and reeves are all playing on the big club and he isn't....
- Pukeboy768

This is dumb because Sprong is not a PK/ defensive player and he’s not beating even Amanda Kessel in a fight. Simon and ZAR are both older and more experienced players. If Kessel were to, god forbid, get injured then Sprong would be coming right up.

I think he's going to land on a bubble team after Botts holds out too long then just grabs what he can - probably just a player & a 2nd round pick or just a 1st round pick. I can't see anyone letting go 2 players & a pick for him unless there's an injury (which Garth prays to his hockey gods for every hour of every day!).

Yeah, DC has an opportunity to do cool things, but somehow they always (frank) it up aside from Nolan's movies. The extended BvS was pretty good, but JL and SS sucked. I don't really care about WW, Aquaman, or anyone else to be honest. I just wanna see the Batman villains. They're the best.
