Why should I refute the point when you are using it as a basis to attack the team? Who even cares? The Hawks got a lot of good players, but that isn't the only reason they are there. They have a complete team for the cup and they have the best chance at a cup. Their management has to be doing SOMETHING right.
-
I don't see how the Leafs can be optomistic. They have no picks, for starters. Secondly they are basically betting the farm on fringe top players in Kessel (young but never going to be a superstar), Giguere (past his prime), and Phaneuf (relatively solid on offense but weak defensively), among a few others. Burke is likely going to make some smoke and mirrors moves in the offseason to make Leafs fans super giddy, but the team will likely be in the bottom 6 in the East again.
-
My point is your team rarely gets top tier talent without sucking for a number of years. Detroit was just less lucky than Chicago was in the process. s*** happens, and with the salary cap it is easier for a team to rebound due to the abundance of players demanding raises from solid teams and having to be bumped to weaker ones. It has nothing to do with drafting. Drafting has been the same for quite some time.
-
You aren't seriously implying the Hawks tanked.
-
And you mean to tell me that getting the fourth pick doesn't make your team terribad?
-
How did the Wings nab Yzerman?
-
The most telling thing is that he has a third of the goals he had last year at this point.
-
It doesn't really matter if he "deserves" it or not because if Chicago wins he is getting a cup ring. He played the games and was part of the team. Ergo, cup ring.
-
Possibly. Never really thought about his psyche in regards to his performance. I am sure he will be jumping for joy if/when he gets to hoist that cup in a couple weeks. That pretty much the only reason I would be rooting for Chicago. Just to give Hossa that cup after all the heartbreak he has been through.
-
I'm also glad we took Franzen over Hossa. Injury or not I think he underacheived and this postseason is another example of that.
-
I made a simple comment to your "sarcastic" post. Boo hoo. If you can't handle that then maybe you should put me on ignore. Oh wait, I forgot I just love to "argue". I thought this was a discussion board. My mistake.
-
12 goals in 20 games with Crosby as his centerman.
-
Hawks in 6, likely. Maybe 5. I think simply because Q is their coach Detroit would have won at least one game.
-
Tell that to Crosby. GMR: Did Sandstrom not deserve his cup ring for his 0 goals on a line with Steve Yzerman in 1997?
-
More focus is on 20 cent cause 20 cent not only plays for the bitter O6 rival of the Red Wings but also because his happened relatively recently. Heatley still has been berated for his actions numerous times.
-
A 5 game series does not count as "barely". If that was the case, Detroit "barely" beat Chicago last playoff.
-
Indeed. As much as I wish he was here and hope he gets his name engraved on the cup, Holland made the right choice in picking Franzen.
-
What about in 02 when he tried to take out Stevie's bum right knee?
-
For clarification purposes you probably would want to keep it to how the league does it. Just sayin.
-
You said the semis. The semis were last round.
-
Montreal is my only hope.
-
? Chicago lost in the conference finals to us.
-
Bingo bango.
-
That isn't my point. Most of the people here WANT the Sharks to lose. Don't you WANT to lose to the team that eventually makes it out of the West?
-
I still can't believe you guys want the Sharks to lose. Wouldn't you rather the Wings lose to the best of the best?
