I was a huge Sprong fan but ever since coming back to PEI, I've seen him play a few times. I have heard a ton of bad rumors but had to see it for myself. he's had a huge ego, no work ethic and bad attitude ever since coming back

Where'd Pouliot rank on that list?

Murray better be the highest goalie ranked.

Same here. Cliffbomb (sp) is another great name. Could you imagine having both of those guys on the same team?!?!. Add douglas "crankshaft" murray to that line and it would be the ultimate bad @ss name line

And Fehr. We couldn't sign him if we kept Sutter's salary.

I don't know how you can turn every single thing into a negative.

Because he's a donkey's a-hole why feed him?

Three D Status for the Le-tang under the sky,
Seven for the rest with their feet of stone,
Nine in the standings for Mortal Fans doomed to die,
One last run for the Dark Ruth on his dark throne
In the Land of Consul where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them,
In the Land of Consul where the Shadows lie.

You are a dork. Get your dungeons and dragons BS out of here and go to Starbucks and awkwardly stare at women until they call the police and you realize your hand was slipped down the front of your pants and not behaving in a way society deems acceptable

Both. Wing with the Sedins . Centre on the second line.
- VANTEL

Yeah till Beau Horvat completely out played him and Vrbata so they dumped him to 3c for 2 games and then he got hurt. Your recollection of Sutters career so far in Vancouver is very flawed. He was sinking like a stone down the lineup.

I'm not trying to stir the pot or anything but since being back, I've seen 3 games an in all three he got freaked at for not back checking. Ever since coming back he just floats around until he gets the puck. As well I've heard from quite a few people that he's been saying that he'll be on the Pens top line in no time and how he's a walk on for the Pens.

A bunch of stuff like that has been going around ever since he came back.

He was not like that before, i thought he easily could have gone high in the first round and the Pens got a game changer with him. But now I'm not so sure

Just to chime in on Sutter here since I'm quite behind. Getting 2 players that both replace him as a player for his old cap hit was a coup in itself. Getting a pick upgrade and q replacement for Harrington on the depth chart is a win by a landslide. Fehr alone has been irreplaceable on the defensive side and leadership side of the team. And not having to pay Sutter 5 mill to be a mediocre is icing on the cake. This is the stupidest argument ever.

That's all on me. I inadvertently invited him last night. He doesn't seem the high and mighty type so if everyone maintains the status quo around here, there's nothing to worry about.

Who is going to fall out of the playoffs because the Penguins outperform them? Boston? Tampa? I don't think the Penguins' 10-7-4 home record is going to get any better over the course of this season. The final WC spot is probably going to need 89 or 90 points; consider also that Pittsburgh has not played Philadelphia.

Pittsburgh has these games remaining:

3 with the Lightning.
4 with the Flyers.
3 with the Capitals.
3 with the Islanders.
3 with the Devils.

How many of those 32 points do you think Pittsburgh can earn? 11? Pittsburgh is crap in their division, especially at home. Hell, they play the Hurricanes 3 more times and I don't think Pittsburgh is going to take more than 3 points from those contests.

- Johnny Wrath


Already beat the Caps and the Oslanders. The Lightning are not at all unbeatable. Devils suck. F the Flyers and their whole limp wristed team and fan base. I still want to play them first to see if we have finally gotten over th BS they like to pull. We could get all those points if we play our game. 3 years ago this same team rolled through March unbeaten until Orpik dropped Crosby. We could easily win 75% of the next 40 games if we stop playing Porter and Lovejoy. Get some young get up and go in there. Rust and Scotty both need to be in the lineup. Either would skate right through a wall if they w ere asked to.

The in game attitude and laziness I saw for myself. All the talk has just kind of around town ever since he came back. But I know a few girls who date guys on the team and they've all said it's true as well.

Carolina (and Toronto) are improving. But they aren't competing at all this season. Similarly, teams can decline and not be rebuilding.

Youthful stupidity and above average egos. If what you're saying is true, someone will put him in his place. Happens in every sport, just not that often in ours.

Sucks about Alan Rickman. Hans Gruber is one of the best villains of all time.

We talked. That's the impression I had afterwards.

We get along fine on here and generally don't need our hands held. If he's around often, that's just another guy to talk hockey with.
