Dr Dubya 32 Report post Posted June 2, 2015 Both Tampa and Chicago are stacked teams with above average goalies and they beat a few teams like Montreal and Nashville that are very average teams with elite goalies. This seems to happen a lot in the post-cap era of the NHL. Got it. Just seemed like you were suggesting one of these two teams was average with an elite goalie.

BottleOfSmoke 5,965 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 It's official. Toews is better than Yzerman. Straight from the horse's mouth. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/jonathan-toews-better-player-than-steve-yzerman--says-steve-yzerman-175536179.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter Which just proves Stevie's better, as he is humble and self-effacing. And Toews has dead eyes. I'm pretty sure he loves nothing and no one. 1 kipwinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Completely agree, Stevie will never publicly say he is better then someone.Way to humble. I don't ever remember Stevie having a temper tantrum in a big game after taking 3 penalties in a row needing to have one of his teammates come over and calm him down. You don't think of that being a trait of the "best" leader in hockey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Word on the street is Yzerman claims Toews is a better player than he ever was. Apparently Yzerman's been on crack. http://www.freep.com/story/sports/nhl/red-wings/2015/06/03/detroit-red-wings-steve-yzerman-jonathan-toews/28396695/ Edited June 3, 2015 by kickazz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadgerBob 297 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 I always thought of Tampa as my East team before Detroit made the move. Not sure how this will go but man I really hope Tampa stomps all over these pukes. Can't stand teams that sit on high draft picks to get their core players and can't stand Chicago. Hopefully they come through! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ram 240 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 Can the Bolts please somehow pull this off? I want nothing to do with the Hawks winning three of five. That's a dynasty. I'm not feeling to good about it. Chicago is just too good. I despise them. I guess I have to respect them. But maybe Bishop can stand on his head and steal the series. Would be great.

HadThomasVokounOnFortSt 878 Report post Posted June 4, 2015 Just think couple years ago we took the Hawks to 7 and they went on to win the cup. Now here we are, took Tampa to 7 and there in the finals.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
