I think I'm cheering for Kessel at this point. I like that he's been doing well this playoffs after years of being dumped on by the Toronto media. Also, I've always liked Malkin, so go Pens, i guess.

We will as long as he can do other things besides that. And from what I'm seeing and hearing he can. Blashill is all about having players who can defend their teammates. Much moreso than Babcock was.

How could it be an accident? Why would he which is arm and stick back so hard and fast? I've never seen another hockey player do that on the bench. And the double take looks more like a sneering "what of it?" look but that's obviously a bit of imagination on my part. Doesn't look like an accident at all.

The problem is that in the "old days" if a team wasnt happy with their captain, they could just trade him and never have to worry about this even being an issue. There always seemed to be a team willing to bite on a player like Brown. Now in the cap era, teams just wont take that chance as he is not worth the cap hit. My first reaction was that this was a classless move by the Kings, but I have changed my mind as I think I was wrong. You have to do what is best for the team overall, and if you feel the guy is not the person to lead your team, you can't just leave things be for 6 more years.

Always difficult to pick the lesser of 2 evils (or teams I despise) . Think I gotta go with the Sharks on this one, should be some good hockey regardless!

That means we will probably never see him in a wings lineup

Radulov will teach the kids to snort lines of coke off strippers' asses. Or the other vets teach them the right way and they all think Radulov is a moron. But you know, they'll automatically follow the new guy instead of the guys who have been around forever.

As long as youre not paying him obscene money you don't need him to have a career year. 20+ goals and 50 points is reasonable and would make him the best winger on our team. I'd offer him 4.5 million for three years, if he doesn't take it then oh well. If he does, great.
