i'm just saying the Penguins did that in 2005 and still picked in the top 5

You have to understand we will have 3-4 rookies playing next year and sophomore rookies etc with Vets

this team will take some time Developing up's and downs but things will get better

I wouldn't say top 5, but I don't see Buffalo making the playoffs even after McEichel.

All depends on how active TM gets. He could go all isles and sign Niemi and like all these top FA's and boom playoffs lol.
McEichel-Reinhart-Zemgus is something to be excited about next year.

this team is not going to be magically good this team needs lots of work it's not going to take one summer sorry

It will be 2 summers just like he said before last years draft.

Why do we need Niemi ? he's a product of the Blackhawks, he hasn't done S$$T with the Sharks.

According to Murray if you listen to him last week, he thinks otherwise.

He's better than Enroth/Neuvirth/Hackett/Liewen/Makarov. And I'm not a fan of Niemi I think he's overrated but he's the best on the market. Better than Cam Ward too.

it's not going to be a quick fix he's trying to make us a contender every year

I bet Murray makes a push next year IMO.

Gotta love Garth and his nicknames.......... Kaniac

Agree. And the East is a little weak, too. It's possible to make it next year.

Coyotes and Oil Win!!! Good night!

Maybe, maybe not but I think we will see better hockey from this team next year. Can't keep saying " next year " how you going to attract players to come here.

Coyotes and Oil Win!!! Good night!

That puck crossed the line, the Hawks should have won that game but i'm glad they didn't.

money, good ownership and young talent will attract players. but mostly money, of which Pegs will have some to throw around.

That is about as close at it comes. Oh well. Good for us!

I agree with that however, winning helps as well. Certain players will go for winning first, Ray Whitney and Matt Cullen told the Sabres to go scratch not once but both players twice. you couldn't pay Ray Whitney enough to play here.

As long as the Oilers and Yotes won like you said.

Let's go Sens!

so we end up like florida panthers and pick back in the top 5 next year after we are out in the first round ?


you cant rush things the pens took how many years ?
