I think what I fear most of is next year knowing how Hakstol and Hextall have been working the team and line ups is not a lot will change. I can entirely see most the same players back outside of Read and Filp. If Gudas/Manning/Amac are all under contract next year I foresee them being on this team next year and playing regularly. I see Lehtera being a regular next year. This organization likes to remain consistent with veteran players over rookies.

I don’t think you’ll see lehtera back next year. They got their two first round picks for that salary dump. They will buy him out. You won’t see manning back either. Goaltending is the question. You won’t see hart till after next year I think.

This team just depresses the hell out of me. From 72-89 they were on of the model franchises in the NHL. Since 1989? 27 seasons, 16, soon to be 17 either one in done or failed to qualify.

That’s some grade A mediocrity right there.

they had the 90-94 window. aside from that they've been mediocre/bubble since 2012. the post cap era has largely been lame. i've had it.

My prediction for the rest of the series is Penguins blow 3-1 series lead, Gudas ends Crosby’s career in game 7.

Nevermind that was the Flyers 2000 playbook.

I dont know where they go, but they have to figure out the PK. Filp and Lehtera are just too slow at center. I think they have to decide let s go young and fast knowing there will be growing pains as opposed to slow and safe. No reason NAK shouldn't be in the bottom 6 after his season with the Phantoms.

I hear you, brother

You can't be small and slow and not skilled, or big and slow and soft

The bottom six has a few too many of those

Like who?

Couts is a Selke finalist off a career year, Giroux second in scoring and possible Hart finalist off a career year, Ghost and Provorov looked like Norris possibilities in the future

What, is Dale Weise gonna say he was misused?

You’re right. Hakstol should be nominated for the jack Adams
