That pisses me off... of course injuries are apart of the game.. but when you have teams like San Jose and Vancouver having multiple off season surgeries.. and probably 5-6 other guys playing hurt.. and Boston and most eastern teams had minimal injury it kind of makes you shake your head.

I would hope the players and coaches never use injuries as an excuse but doesn't mean fans can't bring it up as a fair argument. Healthy canucks against healthy bruins and I feel Vancouver wins it in 6. Obviously just my feeling on it and we will never know.. but I stand by it.

I would give Bieksa the nod if its a contract year...

Like much of the team, I have a feeling he'll look much more interested out there in 6 weeks.

I don't know about you, but i'm quite curious as to who Gillis acquires at the deadline. I get a feeling it will be nobody, or somebody's garbage that he turns into gold.
