Is it me or are we actually looking better without Hansen and Burrows in the lineup?

He's been posting in this thread for years, he's not here to troll.

Perhaps not. It was a strange post so it appeared he was trolling

Yes. We do look better. We trade a couple old guys for solid prospects and have won two straight.

When your team sucks it may appear other fan bases are trolling. He's seen first hand how horrible it is for a team to go through an extensive rebuild, just giving his opinion.

yes thats been going around for months now. Mine turned to pneumonia and got nasty. Drags on this one.....I actually needed antibiotics to get over it. I'd recommend getting checked sooner than later
- SMBDragon

We have, we're on some strong antibiotics, still is beating us up. I understand parents not wanting to have their kids miss school but keep them home when they're coughing and sneezing so that they don't infect the rest of the class and therefore everyone else that interacts with them.

I'm slightly better than my SO though, she gets really bad headaches and fevers when she's sick and with her asthma it doubly sucks for her.

(frank) off

I feel like all 3 Cali teams(especially SJ and ANA) kinda thought they could coast to wins kinda like how the Canucks would put up a random stinker against a team like Phoenix or Minnesota during the President's trophy days.

Canucks got 2 ridiculous goals against LA so that helped

Other than SJ i don't give Ana or LAK much hope.
For me the Metro & Central r top dawg divisions atm.
Swung from the west dominating to the Metro kickin ass in the East.

I thought the same.

Just to make sure this stays here.

I must say youve really changed in recent months. You seem really angry these days.
We used to have some good exchanges here. I miss those. Even at this past xmas we had some good exchanges.

Wish you could go back to being that guy. if you did that Id forgive all thats gone on

Is it too late to list the five reasons we like Willie?

- WelfareWerewolf

You only need one reason to like him for the rest of this year:

Anyone think we could have a goaltending tandem of Markstrom/ Bachman next season or do we need a Miller type?

I would prefer to continue moving on from the older players.

It's not. Go

- Reubenkincade

If you can sign Miller short term and then flip him at the TDL for a pick, that would be nice. I doubt he's going to get many multi-year offers, but GM's get silly in July so who knows.


Markstrom isn't #1 material and I'd take it really slow with Demko. Markstrom/Bachman would be a strong tank duo.

Bachman is way too small to ever be an NHL goalie. Happy he played his heart out tonight

The top 3 teams in the Metro for sure are the favorites with WAS being the odds on favorite in my book.

I rank the contenders as: WAS, PITT, with MIN/CLB/NYR/CHI/SJ close together. The rest are also-rans destined to lose in the first/second rounds. Whoever comes out of the Metro probably is going to win the Cup again just because of how deep both Washington and Pittsburg are.

My Final 4:

WASH/MON in the East
MIN/SJ in the West

Stanley Cup:

WASH beats MIN in 6

No point for goldy? Bust

Agree & if Miller resigns a 1yr contract i'm ok with that.

I was just on PlayNow, they have Calgary with the same odds as Columbus to win the cup

Teams that heat up at the end of the year usually get good odds, no team is playing better right now and cbj has cooled off big time

After the contenders odds of winning the rest should be odds of losing😂👍

Both teams suck. It's irrelevant?
