You know what I just realised guys? Byfuglien has 11 points in his last 6 games, he's riding a 4game-multiple-point-games-streak and a 6-game point streak. 2-2-2-2-1-2 points in his last 6, and 13 points in 8. If he hadn't been injured, he'd likely be the only competition for Karlsson in Defenseman-scoring. Impressive streak oO
Do not praise Byfuglien.
 
Some of you are more optimistic about Detroit making the finals than I am. :/

We have some serious problems that need fixed up at the moment with Datsyuk out of the lineup, sure the team will actually show up and play when he is back, however I would like to have a buffer of another good energetic player in case something else happens.

Letang would be a lot closer if he wasn't injured this year.
 
Why the fuck would Dallas trade Ott when they're currently in a playoff spot?
Because:

"That's the type of thing we're going to look at," said Gaglardi. "It's no mystery. We all know where we're at — we've got to get some top-six help to build around Benn. We're not buyers, but we're not sellers. We're listening. It's safe to say our core and our best players are in their 20s — Benn, Eriksson, Goligoski, Lehtonen, Daley — and you'll see us look to get a little younger and better. But it's going to take a special deal to do that.

"We're more interested in being a good team for a long time, and if that means we take a small step back with our roster, we might be prepared to do that. We don't get excited about being in that No. 8, 9 or 10 spot in the standings — we've got to be better than that. We're not going to be a [salary cap] floor team anymore. We're not going to spend a lot of money, but we're going to get core guys and keep them together and develop them. We're going to build something special here."
I don't think he'll be moved. But it's not an outrageous preposition. Canucks would have to put together an attractive offer, though.
 
Not if they have to trade away a good chunk of their D to get Nash.

Not sure what world you live in, but If we get Nash it will be on Sather's price, so don't expect any of our top 4 D to go away. Sorry.

Edit: Also, rumored asking price is 1 of our D. 1 = Good Chunk?
 
The few millions bucks from a first round playoff series probably looks better to Dallas at this point.
Probably. Just saying. That quote was from yesterday. Obviously there are reasons to keep Ott, but Gaglardi also gave the reasons to trade him. A promising young forward would have to be going the other way, though.
 
He put a commercial very similar to this one on Public Access not too long ago to
:lol

I fucking love that movie.

It's surprising that a salty Canucks fan such as you forgot to take the owner/GM speak with a grain of salt.
 
LOL. Oh, Leafs Talk.

Caller from Nova Scotia:

"I just wanna talk about the character of this team. I don't think uhh...You gotta get rid of these old European soft players. These American soft players. You gotta get some good 'ol Canadian boys. Some guys from Regina, Saskatchewan, Alberta. Guys that wanna get in the dirty areas. Do everything. They wanna battle for you. They wanna win. You can't have guys like Kessel. He's floating around. I don't know if you remember the fourth goal, I believe. He just did a whole pirouette, like a ballerina, and a fairy. You gotta get guys that are willing to block the shots, and who are willing to do what it takes to win. Burke doesn't have that here."

LOOOOOOL.

Yeah, had he not hurt himself against Detroit (What a massacre...) and stayed playing he may have had a fairly higher total of points. As it is, he has been very good for us and for as much as people complain of his defensive liabilities, he's a wild card that more often than not, helps us rather than hinders us. This is my first year really paying attention to him and I have been impressed with his play. Any Jets fan can tell you how much of a difference he makes for us on the ice. At the very least, he keeps opposing teams watching him so our other players can work better.

Do not praise Byfuglien.

Do not listen to this person. Continue the praise. =)

Also, Please win today Habs. Pretend you are playing Detroit or us when Eller scored like a million goals.

Sounds like Don Cherry.
 
Nash to Rangers looking like a no go according to Katie Strang (NY Beat Writer). Can't say I'm surprised at this point. Don't see him going anywhere really now. Oh well. Now let's see what else we are gonna do.

Wonder if Howson will be fired before Nash is traded, probably the smart thing to do.
 
Icing call with Salo against the Wings was weak. For sure. But that just now was the worst icing call I've ever seen. Robidas didn't even pretend to try.

[edit] And a goal. Horrible

New GM may not trade Nash next year at all though.
 
Not that, they left him hanging to give up a 2on1 in the first minute of the game to Tavares of all people. The defense is sucking.

Yes but giving up a goal like that 5-hole isn't good.

Looks like he's getting into it, hopefully he can keep them in it until they get their shit together.

God this team misses the net a lot.

Rangers are gonna look elsewhere in the offseason. More people will be available, options that don't carry a 7.8 million price tag. I don't really care who or what the GM of the Blue Jackets does in that situation. Just saying maybe, for the sake of that franchise, you want to get somebody a bit more confident running things when or if you trade him.
 
I'm fucking shocked that somehow there are still 6 teams that have a worse power play % than the Hawks. How fucking terrible must they be?

I read this and LOL'd. It's hard to imagine anything worse then how it's been for a while
 
kinghenrik already said it, but:

Nick Kypreos ‏
#SNtrade. Going into Sunday nite, its sounding like #Rangers have backed out on the Nash sweepstakes. #Bluejackets demands remain too rich.
 
Wonder if the Leafs are the only team still trying to get Nash, maybe his list really was small and included mostly teams that had no interest........come on Burke, pull off a fleecing to give us Leaf fans something positive to talk about =/
