What are Stromes playoff #s looking like this year... Every time i've watched him he underwhelms me

Horacek!

Carlye - 92 point pace
Horacek - 51 point pace


edit: buffalo had 54 points...Horacek will never be an NHL head coach again

the slide started under carlyle though. that's that got him fired

Best player on the ice in the few games i saw. their record is great with him in the lineup. not as offensive as rielly, but better in his own end.

filip forsberg is the only forward who has really established himself out of that draft.
- GardinerExpress

Has he really? Great rookie season.

I love how a 0.76 Ppg average signifies " established" but 0.64 signifies " bust".

I didn't play well enough for us to win the series. I think that's basically more or less what it comes down to. We lost a lot of tight games. I just needed to make that one more save in all the games that we lost and I didn't do that.

— Montreal goalie Carey Price after the Canadiens were eliminated by the Lightning in Game 6 of their second-round serie

So basically Carey has to allow 1 goal or less for the habs to win?

3 games they scored once. 2 games they scored twice.

6 goals in game 4, 7 total the rest of the series

Yakupov would probably be 6th overall in this draft, all the other top 5 would be top 10.
this draft is stacked, that draft was thin

Agreed.

it was a bad year to have the 1st pick. this year.. not so much

Yeah...I would say it all evens out for us....its Natures way of balancing things out in a fair manner.

who is .64?
- GardinerExpress

Yak in his rookie year......but that's Yak. No way Forseberg regresses, that 2nd half was an anomaly, next year he will carry his hot start all year because he is 'established'.

Price is being a team player and a leader.. No way should he shoulder the loss

- Jeropotato

Established in the sense that he is already better than Martin Erat

- Jeropotato

oh I thought you were talking about this year.

31 pts in 48 games = 63 pts in 80?

Yak started out great, but yeah pretty poopty the last couple years.


63 points, +15 on Nashville. 4 g, 2a in 6 playoff games.
I'd say he has arrived

still waiting for something good to happen to the leafs

I've stopped waiting. I expect idiotic decisions now. I'm jaded, completely. Shanaplan? Yeah, go ahead. Reinvent the wheel. Set up a front office unlike any other successful organization ever. Whatever.

go caps

Well he was crap with Dallas Eakins. Played great with Kruger, great with Nelson...hes never had a Center though. Yak is never gonna be that guy that creates, he'll always need a Center .

big season for him this year. make or break

Ok.
- Jeropotato

I know forsberg cooled off down the stretch, but he was one of the best, if not the best player against the hawks.

imagine if he played on a team that likes offense

(frank), you could go off central scouting a list....in review its pretty spot on, save a late round gem and a 1st round bust here and there.

Wow. THAT was a save from Hank.

big season for him this year. make or break
- GardinerExpress

Depends who his Center is, but I would say year 4 he needs start showing more than a little.
