I'm sorry, but that Ottawa lineup is not as bad as their record. That's a good team. Don't know why they suck this year, it doesn't make any sense. As a Flyers fan those were two of the most frustrating games of the year because we severely outplayed them, but maybe that's why they're bad this year... not motivated.

You CANNOT trade Karlsson. No way on Earth. He's the best D-man in hockey.

glasses of sugar? unfermented? wtf is that

Yeah, that was a bit of hyperbole, but even if you look a G's numbers going into last year, they were on a bit of a decline. After last year, it was fair to ask if he was on the decline.

The idea (though kind of far fetched) of trading Claude Giroux was openly discussed less than a year ago. This would have been unthinkable, previously:

So, while I did engage in a bit of hyperbole, people were asking serious questions about Giroux out loud.
- johndewar

Absolutely. Last season Giroux scored 26 ES points in 82 games played. This after 62 games played he has scored 42 ES points.

His return to form has also elevated others around him...and to me makes this team dangerous in the playoffs.

If you don't know the difference between the real account and a fake one you deserve what you get.

FFS, sitting in a cafe waiting to meet someone for business watching 3 millennial douchebags taking pictures of their glasses of sugar. I’m sure they’ll end up posted on some social media site with the requisite emojis and YOLOS!

Sun, feel free to go nova at any time.

it would need to be the max allowed. I mean, maybe going to a new team would get him back to playing like Cherry Hill's own Bobby Ryan but it would need to be a lot retained

Maybe he doesn't want to re-sign. If it's that you have to get what you can and move on.

Haha that is terrible! Not even Homer would have made that one

It never dawned on me to think of Giroux as a Hart candidate until Boruk brought it up in the pregame.

nvm

Was there seriously a conversation earlier about Pens not being serious cup contenders? What kind of Kool-aid is everyone drinking because I want some.

As MJL said, they were serious cup contenders BEFORE this move.

Brassard is a sneaky good player. He will excel on the third line on that team. Crosby and company could very easily win their fourth Stanley cup.

And so sorry, but no asterisks for tanking or any of that garbage. They’ve won cups fair and square. Do whatever you have to do to win, no moral victories. Deal with it.
