Teemu and Jiggy. My two fave players of all time.
So did the Flames burn a year of his entry-level contract so he could play one meaningless game? Isn't that pretty dumb?Didn't take long for Gaudreau to score

Whatever, I predicted 5/25 last week, it's the going rate for dmen. Matt Carle's cap hit is 5.5. Problem as always is we pay for everyone else's average dmen. And is there anything more concrete on your Gostisbehere rumor other than that one sentence he muttered to a reporter? It was an odd statement but I wouldn't be too concerned just yet.Andrew MacDonald 6 years for $30 million extension.
ETA: And now the rumor is that Ghost will stay in school and go the free agent route. So instead of Gostisbehere on an ELC, we get MacDonald on a $5 million cap hit and no Ghost.
listening to the NCAA Championship game, I'm pretty sure Buccigross said 'Ghost' and 'Gophs' about a million times each but I couldn't really tell the two apart.
I wish the B's didn't open up against such a sissified team.The Bruins and Red Wings are meeting in the playoffs for the first time since 1957, when Boston won their semifinal series in five games.
What's the deal with the Pronger contract? Are they stuck with that cap hit and long-term injury relief each year since he was older than 35 at the time of the signing?
AFAIK, yes. And LTIR is the best they can hope for. Waiting for the league office to bring the hammer and force Pronger to announce retirement which would totally hose their cap situation.
Yeah Pronger is just gonna be on LTIR forever. Earlier this year, Homer said he is never playing again which wasn't news to anyone but some were concerned they'd make him retire. The core isn't terrible but it's pretty overpaid for an average core. I wanted them to make a run at a top D man this offseason and expectations seem to be that the Flyers are going to move a young center.
Making progress but still an 18 yr old and not NHL-ready (as of February)

Lots of different opinions on who #1 is. Central Scouting has Sam Bennett, ISS has Sam Reinhart, and consensus most of the year was Aaron Ekblad.
he was one of their best players down the stretch.
I hope so. Gardiner was the Leafs best possession player all season, 14 pts in 20 games down the stretch like you say (when most of the team had quit). It makes no sense.. Carlyle needs to be gone. He similarly threw James Reimer under the bus about 20 games ago (when the slide began), seems like he's completely lost the room.
Gardiner, Kadri, Rielly top 3 aka Carlyle's whipping boys.Grabovski, Liles and MacArthur have all been strong possession players throughout their careers as well - Carlyle demoted Liles, scratched MacArthur in the playoffs and had Nonis buy out Grabovski.
Seems hard to believeNorthern Voice said:
Any goalies coming back?
does it matter?
Along with most of the posters in the playoff thread, judging by the predictions so far.does it matter?
Blues fans wrote them off already.
