I doubt any change is made unless they have a major slump occurs during the year. Even then, doubtful

Tortorella has a pass this season. Next year they don't get it done, all bets are off

I like the style of this blog Jan, very cool

Let's hope Biron is good today. Caps have been playing real well with the exception of yesterday.

Rangers had won 4 in a row until Friday night, jeez.

you know what's funny.

If Torts was fired and Lindy Ruff was still coaching Buffalo, the question in Buffalo would be, "with John Tortorella out there, how long can Lindy hang on?"

I've seen worse comments, like Nash should be the captain now.

Let's hope he doesn't slip into oblivion like Sauer

I don't mind that move. While Boyle hasn't been good, Bickel isn't an NHL player IMO. They need to move on from him

Boyle can take faceoffs and win them, it's a no brainer to play him over Bickel if that's the choice.

That's another silly choice Torts made Friday night

Especially as a forward. He is bad enough on the blueline. Boyle can kill penalties too. I never understood why bickel was used as a forward

I like Haley's game and he can bring the physical edge that Torts seemed to always need Bickel for. Really no need for Bickel anymore.
