That's pretty funny considering Cammy didn't even get a sniff at the cup during his tenure in Montreal.

ECF's? Your hockey knowledge is astounding.

Tank it up and pick low, its the Pittsburgh way. How did you get Lemieux again, oh yeah by tanking.
- shinebox

The irony is that the Canadiens have had the most first round picks of any team.

Tanked it up for Guy Lefleur huh?

What exactly is your point in sticking around this board.

Nice non response to my Washington, Chicago, Edmonton counterpoint.

Are you gonna talk hockey or continue to troll??
- ryman1566

I enjoy the hockey talk you fine folks are known for.

Do they present the cup after the ECF's??? Your knowledge is much better.

No but to say he didnt even get close, was well wrong. They didnt make it all the way. Oh well.

sorry, I don't consider getting trounced by the Flyers 4-1 in the ECFs as getting a sniff of the cup.

But hey, if those are your expectations and are proud of it, then good on you!!

What do you expect from people who take to the streets after a FIRST round playoff win like it's Woodstock all over again

Or call the Mountie when Chara comes a callin

New Jersey Devils have acquired Alexei Ponikarovsky from the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for defenseman Joe Sova and a 4th in the 2012 entry draft

I have no clue who Sova is, but NJ gave up too much for Poni.

Like i said, not every team can tank, almost lose a team, and then have superstars hand picked for them so they can actual fill a brand new building that was gotten by most unscrupulous ways, i mean bettman should have just gotten on his knees and pleased mario even more.

Again, Washington, Edmonton, and Chicago.. Please respond. I'll wait

And add the Isles to that list if they ever get rid of Wang and Ricky Dp

maybe you guys should tank a season and actually build a team that's actually worth going to see rather than the poop you guys ice every night instead.

I forgot the superstars that were hand picked for them specifically as their team was going to fold or move, and how those citys magically got that building in place for them. How many indictments over that building again? I mean a ball park figure will do.

This is exactly what i would like to see, as i said a page or so ago.

Been a slice folks, you guys have been wonderful hosts, have a good night and enjoy the win.

Well considering the Crosby sweepstakes was selected from a ball lottery, yes, I would say that was 'hand-picked'

I believe Washington got a whole new fanbase and the Verizon Center, after OV and company introduced them to hockey. (MadCap and acouple of exceptions not withstanding) The Pens have had money troubles for a long time man, not just 5 years ago. Salary Cap was the thing that saved the team in a small market. Not every team got to play with the same chips, pre-lockout, anyways.

We had an owner that spent like he was gonna die the next day. And it almost killed the franchise

The Oilers are getting a new building and have had two #1 picks, possibly a third this season. Must collusion with Bettman.

No doubt, and they have indictments too!

Or i hope they tank like Pittsburgh did, and get some high draft picks and rebuild.
- shinebox

And we have an 09 Cup due to it. Ask the Hawks how they feel about tanking too. Both teams have a core to win around for 10 years, it's a new NHL now, gotta go down to win later.
