He does. Doesn't seem like you can teach that super-aggressive mindset physically. Wilson-esque. You either have it or you don't. This year will be telling as far as what he is to this team.

Its easy to teach, play that way or jump on the bus to Hartford.
 
a garbage call and now 3-1. Khudobin has to at least match Vasilevsky this game should not be 3-1 tb

I think Houston is clearly a viable fallback if the Coyotes do fail. Tillman Fertitta owns the Rockets, the arena and is a billionaire several times over.

The thing that's interesting about Arizona is that the arena location, which has been mischaracterized as being in the middle of nowhere, is booming right now. Houses, apartments and jobs being built everywhere. Huge new entertainment complex being built 1/4 mile from the arena and new casino hotel in the ground 1/4 mile in the other direction. Still an uphill climb but I really think if they stopped complaining and concentrated on selling tickets to the people who are close by they could easily survive. Oh yeah, a playoff team wouldn't hurt either.

The only way the Coyotes will ever get a new arena here is if it is privately funded. Aside from the Indian tribes, I just can't see much possibility of that happening. And it's a lot of money to gamble to build in a market that has two other arenas in place plus two stadiums with roofs.

Yet it seems their focus remains on a new arena, unless the new management wants to angle that in order to secure a renegotiated lease deal in the current arena?

Idk why some people seem to dislike Shattenkirk, but the dude got a f***ing raw deal here, and he’s been an important player in Tampa. I will be happy for him when he lifts the Cup.

I can't tell if this is a serious conclusion or article from the onion. The gaffe's outweigh the positives.
He sux!

Ask Tampa fans what makes this team different than last year, they’ll tell you it’s puckmoving.

Well he is the best RHD they have. Rutta, Bogo, Schenn are their other options. Yikes. Luckily they have the best left side in the league (including the best D man, period)
 
I'm loving this Cup final.

Best thing about it is the lack of stress watching. With no Islanders involved thank god, I'm just kicking back having a few cocktails and just saying "entertain me"....lol

And thus far both the Stars and Bolts have done a decent job of that as I could give a shit to be honest who wins it.

this series has also been way more entertaining than both NYI - TAM and DAL-VGK. I mean, talk about a couple of snoozers.
 
Sergachev is turning into an excellent player. I think he is focused on the neutral zone and the defensive zone, instead of trying to do too much on the rush. It’s a great lesson. Skjei, are you watching? (I have a feeling the trade shakes up Skjei enough for him to start playing within his limitations and become a much more effective player).
