Petr Svoboda was there for game 3 (maybe 4, but I'm pretty sure I was happy before I saw him, so probably 3). Saw him in the concourse with his wife and another couple.

Discussions are apparently ongoing about Voracek and Jagr's contracts heading into off-season.

It really looks like Lappy has straighten out his nose. Or perhaps it's just the lighting making it look 'normal' Anyway, sharp looking dudes.

Is there any outlook at this point? Too early to tell?

Too early to tell. Still a lot of unknowns.

Figured as much. Just hoped it was positive if they are working through the playoffs. I'm sure for Jagr a lot could depend on how the playoffs end. I think we need to keep jake for sure and Jagr too, if possible, but at the right price. He may even be more ready next season after a year at the pace of the NHL. Might be able to prepare for the season better and give him an idea how to better pace himself.

Heard Jagr staying here next year is about 50-50 but if he stays, one-year deal will be agreed upon prior to July 1. If he hits UFA, he will play elsewhere on a one-year. Will depend on finding middle ground between raise he allegedly wants and team being mindful of cap.

With Voracek, it will probably go into the summer. They need to figure years/money and are also working around uncertainty with expiration of CBA.

let's take a 2 game lead back to my home state. If the Flyers put together a game like game 6 against the pens there is no way the devils can win.

Thanks bill! I heard Jagr said money wasnt an issue and he wanted to be back? I guess agents still have an agenda and players still want to be paid, but do you think he deserves a raise? What's too high, in your opinion?

I would guess his stance is he provides around 20 goals and valuable leadership for a young, cup contending team. So, what's that worth?

Probably like a day and a half leight, but Jonesy was fantastic critiquing Radulov the other night.

Dave Jackson and Stephane Auger. Right there are two in the NHL. Maybe Lee likes to go ticky - tack and over control a game, but Jackson and Auger just plain get poop wrong. Two worst officials in the league.

I hope they can keep both, but with Carle also there is a lot to work out.

And I think defense should take priorty with timonen aging and Pronger doubtful. Glad we got grossman locked up at least.
