    2015 SCF : Chicago Blackhawks vs. Tampa Bay Lightning

    Tampa would be a new team to win. Are you a GSW fan or a LeBron hater? I'm leaning towards the latter.

    Ovechkin Top 5 Goal Scorer all time?

    Sorry I messed up, I divided his assists instead of his goals. Scoring when Lindros and Bure played is almost the exact same as it is now, hovering just above 5 GPG average yet Ovi is still averaging higher GPG then either of them did. Durability is also a huge role in this and you cannot take that away from Ovi.

    WCF : (3) Chicago Blackhawks vs. (1) Anaheim Ducks

    I remember when Detroit beat one of these teams and really should have beat the other.

    At what point does the GM deserve credit/blame?

    People will always s*** on Holland and it's pretty sad. No one really knows what we have had the last 20 years until it's gone. He has an eye for talent and continues to pick the correct draft picks year after year. I mean Larkin could have probably been picked top 5 last year at the pace he's at right now. In my opinion he's a huge steal for us. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ovechkin Top 5 Goal Scorer all time?

    I get that but how does that change if Ovi finishes 2nd that he isn't the 2nd best goal scorer of all time because Bobby Hull decided to join the WHA? Ovi's 65 goals was scored in one of the lowest scoring eras in Hockey, at 2.78GA per game. If you prorate his numbers for the years Gretzky played that year it comes out close to 88 goals, 2nd best ever for a season.

    Ovechkin Top 5 Goal Scorer all time?

    Stamkos is at .45GPG, not even close to Ovechkin. Also we cannot compare Bure, Lindros or any of the other era's to this one. This is by far the hardest era to score in and Ovi continues to make it look easy. If Ovi finishes his career with 750-800 goals, he is easily 2nd best goal scorer to ever play.

    Ovechkin Top 5 Goal Scorer all time?

    If the kids were scoring 50 goals a year I wouldn't care what they do. If Ovi played for the Wings, he would have scored almost 25% of our goals this year during his 53 goals scored this year.

    That would have been the 3rd line. I don't know where Mantha slots in now unless it's 4th line. Bert - Miele - Pulks Hoggan - Nosek - Zengerlee AA - Larkin - Porter

    Read my earlier post. The resumes thus far are not even close. Blashill had put in his time and accomplished more right off that bat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    He was won at every level he coached at. 2008 Clark Cup Champion 2010 Blashill led WMU to a top-four finish in the CCHA; best year for WMU in 15 years. 2011 USCHO Coach of the year 2013 Calder Cup Champion 2014 AHL Coach of the year. But he can only coach kids fed to him.

    And what exactly did Dave Lewis accomplish again before becoming a coach? He retired after playing with the Wings. He went into an assistant coach behind Bowman and won 3 Stanley Cups behind Bowman. He took over the team and lost two years in the playoffs with great rosters. He then went onto Boston and got fired from them after one year due to inconsistent play. Blash had coached and gained experience for over 10 years. He's won 2008 Clark Cup with Indiana Ice, He coached Western Michigan for a year also and took them to a top-four finish in the CCHA; the best in 15 years. He also won the 2013 Calder Cup. Was the 2011 USCHO Coach of the Year, and was the 2014 AHL coach of the year. Please do not compare them.

    I noticed that as well. I knew we were probably going to hear some stuff from the media / locker room about players and Babcock but that quote says quite a lot.

    About the 3rd Rd. Pick compensation...

    Mike Babcock for Jeff Blashill and a 3rd is real gud.
