Yeah I remember thinking how stupid Tampa was when we were playin them in the cup finals and they yanked em. Drouin has some defensive lapses but he's a goal scorer not a two way player.

He would have been traded too, only reason Y didn't trade him is cause he didn't get the offer he wanted.
Not only scoring but playing physical and literally taking over shifts... In the second
round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs?!?!?! A rookie?

How bout them Penguins? They looked good last night. Can't wait to see how they hold up against the Sharks. Should be a good final.

Have a beerfest token bet going for this series. If the penguins win tonight, I won't have to bring my wallet with me this year :)

As a Vancouver fan I'm satisfied with Erickson. And happy Looch the caveman Gooch didn't sign here
It's funny, sports radio has been shitting on the possibility of bringing back Erickson
for the 6 years and approx. 6 million a year but they love the Backus signing for 5
years at 6 million. Erickson is a 30 goal scorer and is a great 2 way player, Backus is
a 20ish goal scorer and a physical presence on the ice. Seems like a wash. Bruins
have been trying to get smaller/speedier now they go in a different direction....

Lucic is just too slow and often times takes games off. Too much success and admiration
early in his career. He was a cult figure around here. The prototypical Bruin player everyone
falls in love with.

So anyone wanna guess who's the most improved team this year?
The leafs finished 30th so there jump will seem most drastic I think but a few other teams will be looking to surprise as well.
I say the jets, Devils and even the preds will be way better.
Edmonton will still suk

Yep Devils are definitely better... Usually Bruin killers every year no matter who's in the lineup.
