I'm very excited that the Penguins have shown, over the last couple of days, full intention of trying to maximize the remaining window this franchise realistically has before a rebuild is needed. I'd guess Sid and Geno probably have 2 more seasons or so after this one still producing at an elite rate. The Pens now have Brassard through the end of next year, they are locking up Hornqvist as we speak, Kessel is under contract for a couple more years, they have two young quality goalies, our top d-men are locked up for the next couple years and we have good, young, affordable talent to compliment.

Good on them for trying to maximize the rest of this window before the stars start their career declines. Exciting times regardless of how this season ends for the Pens, the next couple years (barring horrible injury) should be full of potential.

I'm still in shock of how quickly the wheels came off of the Blues this season. I'm not saying they were top dogs by any means, but they 'were' certainly a playoff team that if the right things happen....puck luck....good roll....hot goalie....could have made a fun run of it.

But man, did they bust open at the seams and crap the bed. Just a tailspin of all tailspins and they look confused as all get out. I'll still watch, and root a bit and maybe they make a small run and squeak in the playoffs but there's not a snowballs chance in hell they'd make it out of the first round IF they were able to. And honestly, they aren't going to get in. They're one of only four teams that have made the playoffs six years straight...so I guess the ride is over.

The remainder of my hockey season will be spent Rooting for whoever plays the Predators. They simply cannot win the cup, for the sake of my sanity. I cannot bear to live the remainder of my days having to listen to my brother in law gloat about 'his' team winning the cup, despite him being a new fan of the team. Anyone who plays them will be my favorite team for a series.

I wouldn't close the books on at least a Blues playoff appearance. Keep in mind they traded Shattenkirk at the deadline last year and still made it.

Yeah, but in that case everyone knew it was coming. This has a whole different 'feel'. Per the comments from Rutherford in the ATHLETIC and the portion I quoted here....there is an obvious division in the locker room, meaning...something is going on with the players and no one can pinpoint it. The talent is there to make a run, but they have looked like a last place AHL team the past 6 games....all losses. There's zero confidence, it's brutal. In Jake Allen's last 14 starts the Blues have scored 1 goal or less!!! Imagine knowing if you give up a goal you're gonna lose!?

They could make a push and get in, I just don't see it happening. I think they'll have a little push back in Minnesota tonight because Statsny was beloved by his team mates but, I can't see it being sustained.

I just think this is exactly what a city gets for naming it's Hockey team the 'Blues'. I mean, WTF did you think would happen?   :lol

F-ing AMAZING comeback by the Kings against the Knights last night!  Of course, the Kings looked like crap getting down 2-0 right at the start of the third period.  Whatever they pumped into Marc-Andre Fleury in Vegas, I want some.  The Kings finally broke through with a fluke goal by Jeff Carter off a Vegas d-man's head a little past the halfway mark of the third, and Anze Kopitar tied the game with an absolute laser of a one-timer off a beautiful Dion Phaneuf pass with only 11 seconds left in regulation.  OT was tight until Vegas took a questionable penalty, and Dustin Brown made them pay with some really skillful stickwork in front of the net.  He took a crossing pass off his skate, onto his backhand, then to his forehand, and into the net.

The win moved the Kings into the second wild card spot (by virtue of the ROW tiebreaker).  The Pacific Division is still an absolute logjam, with two points separating second place from fifth place.  The Kings really need to pick things up at home if they want to make the playoffs.  Strap yourselves in for the next 18-20 games.  Should be fun!

I'd guess Sid and Geno probably have 2 more seasons or so after this one still producing at an elite rate. The Pens now have Brassard through the end of next year, they are locking up Hornqvist as we speak, Kessel is under contract for a couple more years, they have two young quality goalies, our top d-men are locked up for the next couple years and we have good, young, affordable talent to compliment.

Good on them for trying to maximize the rest of this window before the stars start their career declines. Exciting times regardless of how this season ends for the Pens, the next couple years (barring horrible injury) should be full of potential.

I'm just glad you took Riley Sheahan from the Wings.  I was tired of the Wings wasting a roster space on him.

And I'm glad we took him too. He's been pretty good this year. 8 goals, 16 assists, 24 points. Not bad at all. Plays a good 200 foot game. With the addition of Brassard, he'll slot down to the 4th center, in that position he'll be excellent.

I think the change of scenery did him some good.  He was starting to regress pretty badly in Detroit, but I don't think Blashill knew how to best deploy him.  I don't like how the Red Wings have two very different standards for their young guys and their vets.  I think it screwed up the development of the young guys.  Then again, I think the Red Wings should have committed to the rebuild after Lidstrom retired.  They wouldn't be in the shape they're in now if Holland had the sense to move up and let Yzerman take over as GM.

Damn... Florida looks like they're gonna be tough to go against from here on out.  Two games in a row that Luongo has been stellar, and they're playing solidly up and down the lineup.  5 points out with 3 games in hand.  Glad the Leafs only have to face them once more.  And given the environment in Parkland, they are playing inspired hockey.

On the Vegas issue.... maybe the bubble is bursting?  Or did LA just play *that* good.

Really, this isn't all that bad. B's will have no trouble making the playoffs anyway, and all that matters is getting in and then going from there. He'll have plenty of time back prior to the playoffs.

dude....I can't recall the last time they looked THIS horrid!? It's just baffling. Had all the chemistry in the world at the beginning of the season, then Berglund and Boumeester come back from injury....a few games later they lose Schwartz and BOOM.....they are a completely different team.

That piece I clipped into here from Jeremy Rutherford speaks to the issue....and the issue is there seems to be a locker room problem going on. There are simply players on that team that could care less about winning and losing a hockey game, they are in it for the $$ and the lifestyle. He didn't name names in the article but I know who he was speaking towards (Berglund, Sbotka) and it's cancerous.

I'll be interested to see tonight's game because Yeo was livid after that loss last night.....a reporter asked him if he was going to bench veteran players and he said yes and they said well you can't bench (6) of them...to which he said, well....we will start with who we can and go from there.

As I said earlier....my favorite team from this point on in the season is whoever is playing the Predators. They CANNOT win the cup!!!

Damn straight!  And this one was far more convincing.

And Ryan Reeves...what a prick!


On the Vegas issue.... maybe the bubble is bursting?  Or did LA just play *that* good.

The Kings played like crap for the first 2+ periods on Monday to get down 2-0.  They got a fluke goal about halfway through the third (it bounced off one of their d-man's heads into the net).  The tying goal was just a thing of beauty with Quick pulled.  That seemed to give the Kings life in OT.  Yesterday's game was much better for the Kings.  Four unanswered goals after going down 1-0 early, but a solid game throughout (and Ryan Reeves running around taking stupid penalties in the last 5 minutes or so helped the Kings ice the game).

Vegas went 8-5-1 in February and still has a 10 point cushion in the Pacific Division, so I wouldn't say the bubble is bursting.  The Kings won the first game through puck luck and a bit of grit, but Vegas probably "deserved" to win.  The Kings were just better in the second game, but Vegas continues to impress me.

Bergeron out for the B's for 2 weeks with a broken foot from a blocked shot Saturday night.  Not got at all.

Really, this isn't all that bad. B's will have no trouble making the playoffs anyway, and all that matters is getting in and then going from there. He'll have plenty of time back prior to the playoffs.

Take a look at our schedule the rest of the year and you'll think differently.

Fair enough, I mean you do play the Flyers soon. :p

 :lol

Shaking in my boots Nick!

Nick... please do your part in ensuring the Leafs have home-ice advantage in round 1.

No, I was hinting at Philly taking out some of the Bruins at the knees.   :biggrin:

8-3 B's 39 minutes into the game against the Pens? Never expected that!
