It's crazy I always liked Brown and wouldn't have been upset if we signed him, but nowhere near that money.
Oh I realize that. But leaf’s still have to win the games in hand. It should be a wake up call for some posters here and hopefully the team it’s self.
Right. Only 4 games in hand on Tampa. Yeesh. And Florida is looking pretty mediocre at the moment. The Atlantic division is a big fat yawn. I expect that Boston will lose in Winnipeg tomorrow night.
they seem to have started shaping it up tonight lol
I don't get it. Show me the powerhouse in the Eastern conference. I guess most people would say the Rangers, but didn't they get blown out by Toronto?
Do you really think this team can beat the Rangers 4 out of 7 with their D and goaltending? Unless Shesterkin plays like Vasi last year, not happenning.
I never mentioned any power house in the east. You’re arguing with yourself. I merely pointed out that teams are catching up. Boston is better than we are and there’s the rest fighting for playoff position as of this moment. Leafs are not looking like a contender so far this year.
My memory of the Rangers is watching them getting run over by the Devils last year. It's basically the same team. Definitely having a good regular season so far, but they did last year, as well. They're certainly not a bad team, but it's probably a coin flip between the Rangers, the Leafs and the Bruins. Any of those teams play each other and it's probably a 7 game series.
Our offence will again be shutdown by a strong d core and goalie and our D and G won't be able to shut down the opposition enough IMO. As it stands, I do not see it. Perhaps I need to put on the blue and white gkasses some are wearing.
Agree but beating a team once is easier than beating them 4 out of 7. Of all the contenders we got the weakest D and G. Seen this core get shutdown too many times to be fooled again. As bad as Andy and Soup were at allowing untimely stinkers, our goaltending is probably the worst it has been in the Shanny era.
This is exactly how I see it. I’m open to them making moves and changing but I just see the same built team playing the same way, which has not been successful come playoff time.
