If the Bruins got penalized every time Marchand punches someone in the face after the whistle they would spend the whole game playing 4 vs. 5

if a guy like vanek wants to sign here you sign him no questions asked

Can't disagree. He's frustrating to watch 90% of the time but he's big and scores goals.

agreed. can't believe the heat this guy is taking. 3 goals in 6 playoff games (4 of which have been on the road). did anyone think he was Jonathan Toews or Anze Kopitar?

Well... that's exactly why you don't give that guy 7+ million per for 7 years... no?

He's a goal scorer. An offensive catalyst. That's what he is. No reason to expect more.

what do you think Toews or Kopitar would get on the open market? more than $7 million, i promise you. Vanek is a first-line winger. that's what these guys cost.

No. You take his 30-35 goals and 60 points, and you let Plekanec do the Toews and Kopitar job.

maybe they can get Vanek/Pacioretty away from Chara for a few shifts here and there in Montreal.
