Seriously, how loving hard is "Pens and Caps at 730, ducks and oilers at 10:30"

I heard on the radio this morning it's due to arena availability. They didn't have a choice.

Lundqvist stops like 300 million good shots and the Rags lose on a bullshit shot from the goal line that bounces off one of their own guys.

So if MAF helps the Pens to win another Cup, do you think he's staying and Murray goes to Vegas?

Anyway I wouldn't be surprised if the Pens traded Vegas something to keep both goalies.

nope, the two years professional experience stipulation includes time spent in the ahl

unless the player was on an ahl-only contract, weirdly, which exempts sheary from the expansion draft

Holtby needs to be better. That second goal was terrible on his part and he probably could have stopped one of the other ones.

This would make for a very interesting off-season, especially if Murray doesn't return or play. If Pittsburgh could afford both and have a great tandem 1-2 goalie situation that would be awesome. Back-to-back SC winning goalies?

But I've also wondered, what if - just what if - we had traded Fleury for Subban? I've always loved/hated Subban's play and thought that Subban would be a great fit for the Pens as Crosby or Malkin's enforcer. A cleaner Matt Cooke who wasn't afraid to mix it up and could make a good complement to Letang.

This is one of the stupidest posts I've seen in a hockey thread in a long, long time.

Yes, a Norris Cup winning elite offensive defenseman who's averaged two fights a season is "an enforcer" and "a cleaner Matt Cooke".

You know he's the villain, because he's got shifty eyes.
It's so stupid that it could have happened. After all, MAF is a hard worker and Cup champion and Price never won anything. By HNIC panel logic, it's a perfectly reasonable trade.

This is "they should redo the Preds/Hawks series because that sweep was a fluke" levels of bad.

What if I wished hard enough and we could trade Maatta and future considerations for a time machine and Wayne Gretzky in is prime? He would be such a low cap hit because of 1980's buying power and current inflation. We could have Sid ride him like a noble steed and it would make him twice as fast.


Just a thought.
