Marchenko had another solid game. Really impressed by him so far.

Callahan or Ferraro deserve to be here over him.

Ericsson once again almost f***s us over. Get him off the top pairing...

Nyquist was absolutely terrible tonight. Way too many cute plays and turnovers. He needs to play simple and take shots and go to the net.

******* terrible...

Howards like "Please don't let this go to a shootout"

Your right. Wow how did I f***ed that up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I knew he shouldn't have fought Roy.

Crosby Stamkos Toews You say? More like Crosby Malkin / Ovi Ovi / Malkin Nothing has changed, and in no way is Toews better then Zetterberg let alone Malkin and Ovi, besides him being younger.

OEL

Heard they have nice tickets.

Why don't you post it instead of making us look? I cannot translate anything on the website....

Marchenko being up here has nothing to do with Jensen. Marchenko played a couple games in the NHL last year, and was stated last year as just behind XO in depth in the AHL, some even thought he had a chance at the team this year but then he got injured and took him awhile to get it back to where it was. My argument is there is no way you can put him with Frk, and Ehn who have shown nothing while Jensen has and got praise by Babcock and Holland.

Yea not exactly sure how you group Jensen with Ehn, Frk and Turgeon. Jensen played pre-season and looked like our best young dman besides XO. Last time I checked, he didn't regress either. I have watched a lot of GR games and he is not bad or terrible so not sure how you group him with those guys.

The question is are we willing to give Franson over 5 million / year? That is what the Leafs offered him and he turned it down.

What a talent, and I'm glad I got to watch him play in my lifetime. I am 28, and I remember him coming into the league, along with Cindy and watching him dominate for 10 years is incredible. He is absolutely still elite, despite what the critics say. He has totally changed his game this year behind Trotz, and is starting to refine a defensive game. The craziest thing to me is when he was in his prime, he was the most dominate goal scorer. He has regressed as he's getting older yet he still year after year dominates the league in scoring. Even in the short lockout season, he scored 32 goals in 48 games to get his 30 goals streak to continue. If he wins the Richard this year, he will have 5 putting him only behind Esposito (6) and Hull (7) for leading the league in goals. (I know the Richard was only introduced in 1999).

Why thank you. You still said it tho.

That was sincere. Nice try, can't go back on it now.

You said he was terrible. I just agreed.

You are right. He is a terrible winger.

That lazy Ovechkin is sure lazy scoring 30 goals for 10 years in a row, and the most since the lockout.

Do you even watch Ovechkin? He is one of the most exciting players game in and out. I watched the Washington vs Montreal game the other day, and he was everywhere and hit the post 3 times, dekeing past 4 defenders and flying up the ice trying different things to get through. The media might show you a couple clips of him standing around, that doesn't summarize him. He is also a great passer but doesn't have any finishers (Backstrom is like Datsyuk, wide open net and he will pass to someone else). Couple of quotes from Montreal players after the game: "I've lined up beside him a few times," Canadiens right wing Brendan Gallagher said. "I actually tried to hit him a couple of times. That didn't go well." Next up, Canadiens center Lars Eller "Yeah, I've tried," he said. "He's hard as a rock. It's like hitting a wall." How about you, Max Pacioretty? "I tried to hit him once and you just can't," he said. "He's a monster, with elite skill in all facets of the game." Red Wings would open their arms right up if Ovi wanted to play for them, let's not pretend they wouldn't because all he does "he stands at the dot".
