Any NHL fans in here?

Yeah I remember thinking how stupid Tampa was when we were playin them in the cup finals and they yanked em. Drouin has some defensive lapses but he's a goal scorer not a two way player.

He would have been traded too, only reason Y didn't trade him is cause he didn't get the offer he wanted.

Not only scoring but playing physical and literally taking over shifts... In the second
round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs?!?!?! A rookie?

Couple of real nice series going on

Nothin' worse than sitting down with a 6 pack of good beer and a couple of bowls
and have the home team's goalie shit his pants...... (Dallas/St. Louis)

Sharks game was no better. Hope for better in the conference finals. I think it's gonna be Sharks and Pitt in the finals.

How bout them Penguins? They looked good last night. Can't wait to see how they hold up against the Sharks. Should be a good final.

Go philllll

Have a beerfest token bet going for this series. If the penguins win tonight, I won't have to bring my wallet with me this year

Terrorized with Sharks..

Nice to see Phil win a cup.
Congrats to all the pen fans on here.

Couple days til free agency
Exciting times in leaf land lately

Good job Chirelli... Hall for Larssen, now you've traded a #1 and #2 picks for no
where near enough

Lucic is gonna have a hell of a time keeping up with the speedy Oilers. Especially
when he's not interested in hustling.

Some real interesting moves today

As a Vancouver fan I'm satisfied with Erickson. And happy Looch the caveman Gooch didn't sign here

It's funny, sports radio has been shitting on the possibility of bringing back Erickson
for the 6 years and approx. 6 million a year but they love the Backus signing for 5
years at 6 million. Erickson is a 30 goal scorer and is a great 2 way player, Backus is
a 20ish goal scorer and a physical presence on the ice. Seems like a wash. Bruins
have been trying to get smaller/speedier now they go in a different direction....

Lucic is just too slow and often times takes games off. Too much success and admiration
early in his career. He was a cult figure around here. The prototypical Bruin player everyone
falls in love with.

So anyone wanna guess who's the most improved team this year?
The leafs finished 30th so there jump will seem most drastic I think but a few other teams will be looking to surprise as well.
I say the jets, Devils and even the preds will be way better.
Edmonton will still suk

Preds defense is sick

What now? Let me tell you what now...

Yep Devils are definitely better... Usually Bruin killers every year no matter who's in the lineup.

I think the Devils stole hall and there prospects are coming of age the will make a huge step this year.

Sadly I think the Bruins got even less mobile and will be worse.
