Aw, awesome. I hope nobody came to see Despres.

Canada's post gold win party in locker room, good stuff!

England with his best Mario imitation. Yikes. Despres who?

Engo!

Yes French Canadian style with Moose meat, yum!

Engo has more goals this year (5) than Orpik, Martin, Scuderi, Bortuzzo, and Despres combined (3 - 2 from Martin, 1 from Orpik).

Well, he has played forward. You know, up front. So, not a fair comparison.

Engo...
- madmike71

He will be in the lineup from here on out as long as we rag on him and he scores.

Let's assume we hold onto Bennett and get Kesler by other means...

Kunitz-Crosby-Bennett
Maybe a cheap player-Malkin-Neal
Jokinen-Kesler-Megna
Glass-Vitale-Adams

Martin-Oprik
Niskanen-Maatta
Despres-Bortuzzo

some might say put Jokinen on with Malkin and look for another solution to play with Kesler and I think that's an alternative, but to me, split the goals over 3 lines. most NHL teams can deal with 2 above average scoring lines, very few can deal with 3 above average scoring lines.

if we can get the offense we had in 2012 and the defense and goaltending we had last year, this team will win.

Let's not assume anything. The chances of getting Kesler are slim to none. By the way, was that you on HFboards making an offer for Kesler?

Wasn't making a comparison or suggesting anything...point was simply that Engo has a mind-bending 5 goals on the season.

Well, considering Vancouver can't score, Engo would be an improvement. He is only eight goals behind the great Dan Sedin.

I was saying he has had more opportunities. He does have a nice wrist shot though.

Looks like lines 3 and 4 are back in form...sucking.

The legend of Maatta continues. Nice Finnish!

Fleury should have stopped that

With the average players we roll out on the PK it is amazing they are ranked as high as they are.

The loss of Dupuis is felt on the PK the most IMO.

Yeah, cause you know most teams have their super stars playing pk...

Well, if they are shopping Despres, it's kind of strange he'd be sitting with 10 scouts in the building.

Ehh some do. Kopitar, Giroux. Parise, Toews. To name a few

I can keep going if you like Hossa, Bergeron, Datsyuk.
