Rask would also be the toughest goalie we face within our division.

Honestly, if Geno gets back to form against them I'm not super worried.

Really miss Tanev on the PK. Always a threat to take the puck the other way.

It's nice having Kap back up to full speed now too. And we must have Tanev against the B's

And I know it's Buffalo but CGR line has more pep in their step compared to the last few games or more.

I feel weird saying this, but I think the Pens are missing MM more than a little.

He's their second or third best dman depending on how you value dumo

I definitely value Dumo more than MM, but I may tend to agree that MM has been their 3rd best over the last month or so. You can see the trickle down effect in the transition game from the d-pairs without him.

Devils up 2-1 on the Isles. Whoever finishes first is likely playing the Isles. I realllly hope the Caps drop at least one game.

Would you value dumo more than MM if Letang weren't there?

Yes. I actually Letang is a better player with Dumo there. Dumo may be one of the most underrated dmen in the league just because he's not a point producer or a bruiser.

The Isle can't score. I like our chances against them. I keep hearing the predictions saying they're the team to beat. Just don't see it. It's the Pens or Boston. I'm not a believer in the Caps.....at all. Too slow and plodding. They may physically beat a team for a series, but they won't go very far.

Lol just trying to make it easy when we talk about lines. I like the BAT line nickname though lol. MKZ is a good one too. Like Lincoln MKZ

I like Dumo, but I dont think he is underrated. He's a great complimentary dman, but without an impact dman I think he would be pretty average.

There's definitely logic to some teams being better playoff teams than regular season team, and that may ring true for the Isles, but I just don't think they have that "it" factor they had last year.

Let me be clear, they're not going to be a cakewalk for any team, but I just don't think they have it.

The Eric Staal or Jeff Carter debate is now firmly over I’d say!
I agree Pens definitely need MM back for a long run it’s definitely noticeable he’s gone. (Not a bad thing on Friedman)
I could be wrong cuz I haven’t looked lately but I don’t think Tanev can come back till playoffs for cap reasons.

Not sure if anyone watched the show Animal Kingdom, but Carter looks like one of the dudes from the show. I think he was only in first two seasons. Scott Speedman.
