I would contend that the US women's team is better and more successful than the US men's team.

That actually might be fair because it's looking like no canadian team will ever win a stanley cup again.

I'm OK with this. If my Canadian team won't win another Cup I sure as hell don't want the other ones to.

Have fun LAS, I'm disappointed I don't get a Steve Dangle meltdown video, but there's still hope that Washington do what they did last year and play down before remembering they won the President's Trophy in game 7.

Don't worry the meltdown is just delayed for a little while longer.

Repeating 2013 again is gonna be great.

I can't imagine too many people melting down this year but I guess it's possible. If you have a taste of the playoffs you might get carried away. I think the full meltdown will take place 2 years from now when the Leafs lose game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

A good chunk of the fanbase actually believe they'll win the Cup this year.

Besides, I was referring to Dangle who has the best meltdowns. :v:

I heard they were being adopted by Vegas. What happens to players on the Wolves who are on contracts with the Blues? They don't suddenly become Vegas property, right?

Only players that actually have contract with Vegas belong to Vegas. It's not unusual for a farm team to field players from two franchises. The Wheeling Nailers had players whose rights belong to the Habs and Pens for a while before the Habs made their ECHL affiliate the Brampton Beast.
