The BFG helps a player up who just slammed into his goalie. Intentional or not, this is the playoffs. You shove him repeatedly and don't let him get up.

God I'm so glad that wussy is gone.

Great save by Pavelec.

I'm done.........

We have the prospects, owner, new coach, picks etc.........

I'm done back peddling, watching playoff hockey without my hometown team the past years is just heartbreaking!

Time to Move Forward.........moveon.org

Murray is going to move this team forward next season and it makes no difference if people agree with it or not. I'm not saying playoffs but you won't see what you have seen the last years again, it's retool time and it starts next season.

No offense but you did say they weren't going to tank this year and that nolan wasn't going to be fired for quite a while. Things can change, I think the market is a little weaker this year.

Nolan didn't let them tank did he? the team was better after the trade deadline. you're not going to get a big time coach in here and try to sell it to him that they aren't done rebuilding. The rebuilding is done, this will be a different team after July.

I understand where you're coming from but Murray only can do so much The free-agent market is so bad this year he might make a trade for a top winger but that's still not going to get us out of the top 10

Don't get me wrong Going to be a fun team to watch but it's going to take one more year and then playoffs

Great effort from Parise


Hithcock's seat is most certainly hot.

That's very optimistic, IMO. I say this team is potentially at least 2 more years out of the playoffs. Very improved next year, bubble team the year after and playoffs after that. Especially if Eichel goes back to BU, Reinhardt doesn't develop and GMTM can't bring in a top line winger.

Personally, I say make a play for Simmonds. Then go from there.

Not going to get a big time coach to come here and tell him " we got 3 more years of a rebuild". It's about adding the correct pieces now.

Philly is deep on the wing and from what I've heard, has a lot of young D prospects that are still a couple years away. You send them a D like Psysk/McCabe and a C like Larsson/Grigs, throw in a couple other peices and I thin you have a starting point.

I just don't see ROR happening.

I think this is what it comes down to and we compete and are way more exciting as the team slowly builds up toward 5 or 6 years of competitive, rewarding playoff runs.
