"If he signs, he signs."

Hey, there's only one 6'4 Swedish stud.

Cannot wait for this series to start. Hopefully Washington can finally get over the hump.

From some Twitter guy: "It's Be Careful Who You Fire Day. Mike Yeo eliminates Minnesota. Alain Vigneault eliminates Montreal. Todd McLellan eliminates San Jose."

Some 21 yo, 6'4" 215 lb stud from a Swedish 2nd tier league who had a breakout year (50gp, 57pts). Nashville and Chicago are the other teams he's considering. http://kuklaskorner.com/tmr/comments/report-from-red-wings-prospects-wings-in-the-running-for-a-swedish-free-age http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=29343 http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=176329

Nerve, is that you?

The rangers also had more points than ottawa but don't get home ice lol

Caps in 7. This is gunna be a good one.. probably with a lot of OT again.

Go caps go!

Yeah I remember Kenny quoting stats all the time during Wings game and then they get broken, Caps in 7.

Toews sucks

I agree, it was fine the way it was with 6 divisions.

I was tempted to make this thread earlier today.

Yea the switching over to the other bracket is BS. They should reseed after each round. Washington shouldn't have to play Pitt in the 2nd round after winning the Presidents Trophy.

Washington is my desired team to win the Cup this year. Ovechkin needs to have his name on that thing.

Bye bye Toronto. We don't have to hear about your annoying fans anymore this season.

5 OT games in this series. One of the best series I've ever seen in any sport.

Go Leafs Go!

Happy for the King

Howard has two more years left on his deal. Kronwall has two more years left on his deal. Nielsen is $5.25M against the cap for the next five years. Abdelkader is $4.25M against the cap for the next six years. Nielsen's cap hit + Abdelkader's cap hit = $9.5M. Kane is $10.5M against the cap for the next six years. Toews is $10.5M against the cap for the next six years. Kane's cap hit + Toews' cap hit = $21M. For the next few years, the Wings should be focusing on drafting and developing a new Cup-worthy core and freeing up cap space when possible. The Wings should not be looking to add veteran players with $10.5M cap hits. I'm not saying Kane and Toews aren't great players. I'm saying the Wings should want no part of their contracts. Maybe if Chicago eats some salary I'm slightly more into the idea. ........But even then, no.

You think anyone is taking that pile of steaming hodor? Hodor that. BTW I'm now substituting every cuss word with hodor. Hodor you, profanity filter. Sent from my LGLS676 using Tapatalk

I'd rather have a kid who is out of waivers as the 2 spare forwards than some old vet like Ott. If you decide the kids are crap and they play their way off the team later, either promote someone else from GR or claim someone else off waivers. If they sign a guy under 30 years old who can play on a scoring line and hit and agitate and be hard to play against, fantastic. Otherwise just go with what they have.
