2 years ago if we had played pens or caps we would have lost most likely. If we play say ottawa and pens or nj i think we are in the ECF. It's all about match ups and who's hot. We just don't want home ice advantage.

i agree and hope it works out that way would rather face ny or boston not both of them.

Who says you have to overpay Carle to resign him? I have been saying IF you have to overpay he is replaceable.

What extra Cap room? The cap room you would save by not signing Carle to any deal over 5.25 million.\

Who are you using to trade for that young defenseman you speak of? Draft picks, Depth youth... You cant trade almost anyone...

And yes, I'm going to let a player in his prime go so I can resign 40 year old Jagr. Good plan Like I said... I would rather resign Voracek and Jagr IF Carle is going to be overpaid. So yes I would rather have CAP room and trade for someone, and resign players then to OVERPAY for Carle.

Tool.

I understand alcoholic confidence. It takes 10 drinks to take to the hot girl, or one drink to talk to the ugly one, just another 14 to up the anty

For shy people it could be the opposite. They need to drink more to talk to a hotter girl. I get what your saying though.

Are you calling me a tool here?

Anyway, it's clear that there are just general statements being made here without thinking it through. Such as when you trade for a young defenseman that would be capable of replacing Carle, you'll liekly have to give up top assets off your roster to do so. Those players would have to be replaced, which would cost Cap space to do so. So all of this is just fantasy Hockey. Because the options to replace a player like Carle with a similar player for less money, is extremly limited.
