This could somewhat of a farewell tour for the wings since they are moving east. Start by playing Anaheim who have played a 3 classic/interesting series against each other in the last 10 years. Move on to play one last series(as conference rivals) against Chicago. And finish up against recent rivals San Jose before showing the east what they will have to deal with.

Hmmmmmm, Sharks in the conf final. That's a bold prediction. I like the farewell tour theme, some good PS material right there.

I believe it has all to do with potential.

 

For the older players (Cleary, Sammy, Bertuzzi, Abby, Miller, Eaves) it is the POTENTIAL to perform at a high level that keeps them IN the lineup.

 

For the young studs it is the POTENTIAL to screw up that keeps them OUT of the lineup.

Yandle and Jagr and then we're done.  Make it happen, Holland!

Flip!!!

 

1 for 38 PP on the road!!!

Can't even skate the puck out of the zone without getting caught up.  Jeez....

Luke's kick.

 

It's obviously a force kick.

Will he clear waivers?

hes on a one way contract. and why would we put one of our best role players and pkers on waivers?

Well, mark it down. I really don't I've ever seen a uglier game than this. I've seen ugly games, but they were so obviously fluky. You knew it was a good team having an awful night. This is not a good team, at all.

Couple years ago late in season lost 10-2 to blues at the Joe! A week later lost 8-0 to CBJ.

Edit: didn't blow up 

Hey, if these rumor starters are a bunch of liars, at least we get the benefit of having something to discuss... however frivolous.

They took my job....

THEY TOOK MEH JERB!

South park reference... I think.

I'm not in any kind of panic or concern about this team going forward, maybe it's because I have very high hopes for Smith or maybe it's because Flip proved last season that he can be that scoring player we were hoping he would be. This team wins, and I don't think this upcoming season is going to be any different. It may not be the top seed we are used to but I don't think we are doomed to fail either.

I think its pretty obvious now that the main FA left that Holland is targeting is Doan, especially considering all his "we need veteran leadership comments".

While he's a great player, can someone please explain to me why we need him of all people? I just don't get it. Veteran leadership? Most of our core team are seasoned veterans!

Datsyuk - 33
Zetterberg - 31
Franzen - 32
Kronwall - 31
Bertuzzi - 37
Sammy - 36
Clearly - 33


Given this, it seems we have plenty of veteran leadership and I just fail to see what Doan could possibly provide except some toughness and some more goals. We should be trying to get younger, trying to get a sniper to play wing with Pav. Another 35+ player on a team of aging veterans? I just don't get it.....

Very interesting read! Good Post!
