HOCKEY MATTERS 167 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 If Babs line up changes spark a 5 game run of 4-2, 4-1, 5-2, 4-3, 3-0, do any of you change your mind? The question isn't can this team win in the playoffs playing this kind of uninspired hockey, it is (as I perceived it) do be about the roster and the need for change. This team will have the drive in the post season, you don't think they will want to win it for Hossa the way they did Drake? Hell you don't think Lids wants 5 as bad as he did 4. Did Bill Russell stop after 10, no he won one for the toe, just kidding but he does have 11. This team will be fine, the record they have puts them in the spot where they don't have to press as hard once Babs gets them playing hard. The OP had a good question, do you want this roster in the postseason so I say YES. I agree. And he will get them playing hard. Like Mickey says.... no place for a nervous person.

Z and D for the C 712 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 I would rather see the Wings then the Blue jackets. That's just me though. If we get the same effort in the playoffs that we get now, we just might as well be them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FunkedUp 29 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 No, here's the team that I want to see going into the playoffs: Getzlaf-Crosby-Malkin Ovechkin-Spezza-Alfredsson Kovalchuk-Thornton-Iginla Gagne-Savard-Hossa Bouwmeester-Regher Phaneuf-Chara Niedermayer-Lidstrom Brodeur Luongo You couldn't make the playoffs with that squad, you need an enforcer.
