  1. I find it ironic that you ask if that is caliber of a Stanley Cup winner when you leave out the most important part, the defense.

    The offense alone, compared to past winners who've all had one or more elite centers mostly in their four lines.

  2. Parise-Zajac-Tedenby/Zubrus

    Kovalchuk-Elias-Zubrus/Tedenby

    Palmieri-Jofeson-Rolston

    Pelley-Steckel-Henrique/Zharkov/Clarkson

    Honest question here, is that a Stanley Cup winning lineup? Is it a lineup that can make a deep run?

  3. So now this is a UFA thread too? I don't wanna shift through 15 unmarked pages of a thread to discuss a signing just because I wasn't online the second it happened. What the hell was wrong with doing it the old way?

    +1!!!

    There should be this thread for trades and trade speculation and another for UFA spec and other minor signings with the more notable ones having their own thread.

  4. Its fine, I just don't think everything needs one thread. Signings and trades I can see but after awhile discussion dies off because of everything being pushed back and more news popping up. Its fine though, free agency soon...need to calm down haha

  5. You don't have to feel 'bad' but sadly concussion causing hits still happen today and it can ruin someones hockey career and they're way of life even after their playing years.

  6. The comparable Victor Hedman stepped straight in from the SEL and posted 20 points and a -3. If Larsson somehow does crack the lineup its not like he will put up 50 points(if ever) and be this huge shutdown d man. Too many Devil fans are looking at him as being the next Lidstrom or Niedermayer and are expecting huge production numbers unfortunately. I'm not sure if he's ready but Conte/Lou seem to think so and they are some of the best in the business.

    We also have a surplus of defensive prospects/verging players looking to crack the lineup(Larsson, Urbom, Gelinas, Fayne, Salmela, Taormina, Fraser, Eckford, Corrente). Since White, Volchenkov, Tallinder, and presumabley Greene all have spots I think its time Lou tries to package one of Taormina/Eckford, and as stated quite often Zubrus/Clarkson to gain some slight cap room and free up this clog and give these guys a shot at cracking a lineup permanently. I feel as though Corrente and Eckford's chance to make the team has passed. We'll see.

  7. Our future blueliners in size...Urbom 6'5" 215, Volchenkov 6'2" 225, Larsson 6'3" 220, Fayne 6'3" 215, Tallinder 6'4" 215, Gelinas 6'4" 195, Merril 6'3" 201

  8. Bottom line is legal or illegal, the hitter should realize the position of the player and his vulnerability. Horton was vulnerable and Rome still hit him. Yeah its a physical game but the mindset should not be to "hurt" someone unless it Crosby.

  9. Pearl Jam's front man Eddie Vedder's new single to go with 'Ukulele Songs'...I thought Pearl Jam music is amazing, I thought Into the Wild was too but this is hard to beat..

  10. Here's a thread to discuss music in general. 70s', 80's, rap, pop, "new" stuff or whatever. The 90's music thread seem to specific for anyone wanting to share music that wasn't during that era. I'll start with a lot of different stuff..

    DCFC. Epic intro. Epic video.

    State Radio.

  11. If true...

    2012-Philly vs. NYR

    2013-out west

    2014-We all know its the Capitals(again) vs. Boston (gotta get'm in twice!)

    2015-out west most likely

    2016-Tampa Bay vs. ohhh who knows....

    **** the Winter Classic. We all know the NHL strongly despises NJ. At this point I could see Islanders making it before us.
