Good luck moving that contract, Pete. Maybe Edmonton? Does Suter have any trade clauses?

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I'm not sure. They'd never trade him....he's "one of us". And you're right, nobody would want that contract for a player whose only talent is being on the ice for 30 minutes.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I stand corrected. Last night's Blues/Hawks game was another great game.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Pfffth Rask has that same limited talent and he's on the ice longer!!!!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Ducks in game 7's at home....:hn

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

1st round in 2013. 2nd round in 2015. 3rd round in 2015. 1st round in 2016. Ducks are regressing. I think you can wave bye bye to Bruce B. ;)

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Leafs get first pick in the draft, J E T S Jets Jets Jets get 2nd pic,

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Yep - and 1 vs 2 depends on whether you want a centre or a winger. Our last flying Fin (Selani) worked out alright.

Now we have to wait and see who Shanahan picks.

The Leafs will continue to suck regardless.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

They, like the Raiders, have put a great many years into perfecting sucking.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

You called that.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Great Pens/Caps game. Used to go to Caps games when I was a kid in the Bondra, Hunter, Kristich, Kolzig era. Nice to see them making some noise in the playoffs again. Holt by has been unreal tonight.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I wonder if the Leafs will trade the #1 pick for Rask, or like Rask and 50 American dollars?

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Physics wouldn't allow for that - the team would suck so badly it would be like a black hole. Might cause the end of the universe as we know it.

No - he has to stay with the Bruins, to allow for "balance".

:D

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I can tell you are one of the people that thought turning on the Hadron Collider was going to cause a blackhole that would destroy the planet, no Neil this would be perfect safe, his 5 hole has been a blackhole for puck for several years now and it has done zero physical damage, psychological damage that's ...well neither here nor there. :2

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Jamie "fifth round" Benn is quite impressive, you'd think you'd hear his name mentioned more with some of the big scorers today.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I'll be rooting for San Jose or Nashville over St Louis. And if they get to the Finals, I'll be rooting for whoever wins the East. **** the Blues! :lr

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I'm a hockey purist, love the game. Watch the playoffs through the end every year, even when the Hawks get knocked out early.

What's a "herf bet", Bob?

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Both my teams won last night. The childhood team took down the pens to stay alive and my CA playoff contest team took down the Preds. One more win for more cigars!!!!! Keep it going!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

A Cuban. :D

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Hell of a game by both teams, my man Holtby coming up huge for about 20 solid minutes and then it was just the wrong kind of luck. Oh and as a Bruins' fan Phil Kessel can eat a dick.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Pens survive a "3 DOG night" to get the win. Should be a great series with Tampa.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Dallas came up to play ... what I have NO idea!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Helluva start by the Sharks.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I scored a goal off a slapshot off my chin once, but my beard was about at thick as Kaitlyn Jenner's. ;)

Both Conference Finals series should be exciting.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Nice to see the sharks not just win, but win in the way they did. Much different team than previous years. Looking forward to the next round!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Have to go with the Sharks so Jumbo Joe can have his Borque moment, although not the same circumstances and not quite as special, would still be nice to see him give Sinden the big middle finger.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Their backup is decent and had a great game, have to wait and see.

The x-rays on Ben Bishop's injured left knee came back negative, according to head coach Jon Cooper.

Bishop was injured after falling awkwardly on his left leg. He was clearly in severe pain on the ice before the stretcher carried him off. Cooper added that there was no structural damage done to Bishop's knee and that they are "hoping for the best". The Lightning goaltender is considered day-to-day. We should find out more about his status for Game 2 in the next couple of days. May 14 - 12:07 AM

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

I picked the Lightning to beat the Pens in the pool I am leading on another board, so of course Bishop got hurt ih Game 1. :rolleyes: :hn

Actually, Vasilevskiy hasn't been bad and is clearly playing up to the moment while Bishop is day to day.

SABBOD, Adam. :lr ;s

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Yes there are sets outside on the patio, a couple of them.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Let's not forget the goalie the Bruins held the rights to for less than a week, saying that this player was no Rask as they traded him. They were right that time at least, the player, Martin Jones, led the potential lottery Sharks to the playoffs with 37 wins and is hot in the playoffs... While Rask is off spending that 7 million a year the Bruins pay for his unique style of choking.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Jones 2 consecutive shutouts and 3 of the last 4, but the Bruins have Tuukkkaaah Mr. Fking Clutch Rask!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Well that was ugly. Sharks didn't seem ready to play until it was too late. Have been expecting it to go 7, just came out lackadaisical today.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

If I believed in jinxed (knocks on wood) I would say I totally killed Jones' night with my post. :lr

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Two great series, both likely to go 7. I LOVE playoff hockey!

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

Wow textbook wraparound behind the net goal to tie it up 3 - 3 late.

Re: NHL '15 - '16 Season Thread
 

And forehand backside to win it.
