    How about to at least make it constantly to the second round and not having to make the playoffs on the second last or last day of the regular season even that would be an improvement. This sadly speaks volumes to the fact on how far this former EXCELLENT team has fallen since the glory days

    I think you'd be well advised to save that money for something more useful

    There is nothing, nada undesirable about Tampa being in the finals and if they win it finally put that stupid point of Stevie Y not having one anything to bed. I mean 2 gold medals, one 1 ECF appearance and now a SCF in 4 years ! only if that's not impressive enough for some. Are YOU kidding me Ducks ?

    There is enough time left but the Ducks need to get it going and at least outmuscle them, go to the dirty areas and do whatever it takes to get back into the game.

    If I'm Bodreaus and this continues I'd tell my big boys to hit everything that moves and run Crawford, make them pay for running up the score.

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

    Well some of their fans want Quenville fired who is a pretty good coach and would be hard to replace. Man Toews only asking for 10,5 the guy would have gotten the max if he asked for it so he left 2 million if not more annually on the table wow.

    Good god Toews is captain clutch, the bigger the game the better this guy plays...hate so say it but he IS the hawks version of Stevie

    They are going to lose Bickell, Sharp and Versteeg at least. Chicago will still be a strong team but their depth will take a blow that's for sure

    2016 NHL All-Star Weekend Logo Revealed

    I think so yes nowadays everyone has a pc, notebook, smartphone, tablet and maybe even some of those "computer" watches. So tons of ways to install some clickers

    2016 NHL All-Star Weekend Logo Revealed

    I hope so I mean who wouldn't want to see Weber, Rinne, Josi, Jones/Forsberg playing with a bunch of all stars infront of their fans ? So if you use the system - which I think is flawed but whatever - to your advantage it will for sure be possible. A bunch of endless clicking programs should do the trick

    Sabres hire Dan Bylsma as head coach

    Zadarov, Bogosian, Eichel, Reinhart and probably even more talented young guns I've forgotten. Toronto is already over the moon for that cocky Nylander kid (what has he done at the NHL level ?) the only peice they really have is Morgan Rielly. So for sure Buffalo will be better in the not so distant future their rebuild is ahead at least 2 years

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

    I think fans in general can only do 2 things: support and vote with their wallet No matter how educated, wealthy or "informed" a fan believes to be in the end it's the coaches, owners and GMs running the teams and making decisions. Sure as fans we can disagree or agree with them but in the end nothing we say matters btw. the same thing goes for the media. Would I hope that Holland becomes the GM he used to be again? For sure but I'm also realistic enough to know that for whatever reason it won't happen...so I'll complain but in the end I'm pretty sure nobody in the whole NHL is giving a rats ass about what fans, the media or that social media believes is right. sorry for OT back to topic: I want the Ducks to win, I like their style and yes I do like Perry, Getzlaf they are superstars and man would I give a lot to have Fowler on this team. The Hawks yes, they are talented and Toews is easily a top 3 player in the league but they are the Blackhawks we are the Wings so f*** them and let's see how they are dealing with the capacalypse next year. so one last Quark for them go Ducks go

    To honest I thought it looked like the Buffalo logo in terms of colorschemes. That being said happy for Nashville having this game, although the ASG has sadly turned into a joke but seeing Weber and Chara upping the hardest shot speed again, will be something I'll watch

    Sabres hire Dan Bylsma as head coach

    #TSN thought he was making around 2,5 mill annually so I'm sure he will be somewhere in the 3 mill + range.

    At what point does the GM deserve credit/blame?

    Godström typing without real buttons sometimes just sucks

    At what point does the GM deserve credit/blame?

    A GM is the builder of the team and probably the most important piece to hire because they are basically overseeing everything. So if they are able to make their team a contender in only 4 years they'll deserve a ton of credit, like the captain obviously does. If a team fails to deliver or a GM is watching it getting worse without doing something, then the blame is deserved too. I mean Chiarelli had it all and he managed to trade it away so the blame is deserved and he topped it if by trading Boychuk away for basically nothing. In terms of Holland he used to deliver the goods , but somehow and somewhere he has lost his fire and he was never prepared for the post Godstrra plus failed to extend the teams cup window when Pasha and Z still where somewhat in their primes.
