the 3 best goalies this season (hank, rinne, and quick) are still plying
the hottest goalie is still playing, holtby
the best tandem of goalies (blues) are still playing
one of the best goalies ever is still playing, brodeur

brad richards is consistently a top 10 player
kopitar is one of the best 6 centers in the game
briere is one of the best post season players in game


but the preds, yotes, kings, blues, devils do play as a team for the most part

it's not a fluke that a hard working player like ward gets the series winner, based on how he grinds it out in the past playoffs. Not a sexy acquisition but one that pays off when it counts the most

Giroux probably deserves mention in there as well.

Still.. Philly and the Rangers have great depth..... Every team has impact players, or stars like Richards and Breire, and like I said earlier great goaltending is a must, but guys like Ward, Boyle, Boedker, are the depth guys who have been a huge reason for there teams advances, It's not the top line that's winning games for these teams, look at the players who have game winners this playoffs

the pens, panthers, nucks, sharks, red wings etc also have depth

the difference is the depth players on these teams stepped up

and the teams did not go 0-23 on the pp with drop passes

- sbroads24

a couple of o lineman would be starters, I am ok going after one of them if they are still there
the te from stanford if he is still there
upshaw if he is still there
jenkins is the best talent out there, head case, if you want to improve the secondary and make it great grab him but it's feast or famine

otherwise one of the few wr's out there randle, the kid from rutgers or georgia tech

out of those 8 players one of them has to still be around when we pick, right?

Pens were beat by a team with better depth, so were the Sharks, and Red Wings, thats my point, teams with better depth are advancing, you could argue NJD has a better roster than FLA, the only series that did not work that way was the Boston series and the PHO, the 2 teams getting the best Goaltending.

I dont really want the kid from Rutgers (Sanu) he's like a Marcus Colston type reciever and we need someone to stretch the field, Fleener I would be ok with, I would love Stephen Hill but i think he might be the first pick in round 2. I wouldnt mind Jenkins if we would have taken another position in round 1.

The Rags will win each game in OT. The Craps shot their wad and they're done.
