ECF: Game 6 - New York Rangers @ Florida Panthers, 8pm ET, ABC (Tropic Thunder Edition, Do or Die or Do!)

[The Winter Soldier]

I don't know what it is about joining Florida, but all the players that have been acquired by them seem faster, harder to play against, and all play hard on the puck. I counted only 4 players that are home grown on their roster. Zito has done a heck of a job making this team a contender. Still a long way to go in game 6, but it's just proof you do not have to tank and draft to build a cup contending team. Interesting template.

Crazy how those Calgary trades changed Florida.
What a steal

Vancouver also bought out OEL, who helped us tremendously when Ekblad and Montour were injured to start the year. So we need to thank the Nucks as well.

 

[Straight Fire]

Forsling too - 5.75M

The thing with Bennett is he doesn't need to fight often. He's a silent lethal threat on the ice and the players on opposition teams know it. To me he's a modern day under-cover Gary Roberts type player who's healthier and may never post the offensive stats of Gary but is just such a presence out there. IMO.

The only thing missing from this ad is Trouba elbowing that woman in the head.

That was his mom

 

[Roomtemperature]

That was his mom

You know how many NHL players would elbow their mom for the Stanley Cup?

 

[Chardo]

Brian Totally Skrudland. Classic.

It's a shame I can't watch the game with the sound on because of the heavily Rangers-bias commentators. This is the playoffs, ESPN/NBC should be able to find broadcasters that can be more professional in their attempt at neutrality. There's a real game going on and I often feel I'm watching a different game than they are. Western conference games have much better commentators. The guys during intermission are fun to watch.

Paul Maurice. Doesn't get enough credit

You sir - crack me up

Good one!

 

[Chardo]

You know how many NHL players would elbow their mom for the Stanley Cup?

All of them.

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

and they never looked at it even in intermission, bravo

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

A good handshake is much better!

 

[Turin]

Very satisfying that Trouba is terrible and overpaid, helps make up for the fact that he’s the leagues biggest moron.

 

[ultrathrash]

Already gave up on dallas??

Already gave up on dallas??

u guys are out scoring their pp while short handed after 5 games, pave and duchene invisible. Give me a reason not to have given up on them honestly.

 

[Matty Sundin]

Ron Maclean is such clown and passed his expiry date almost 2 decades ago. No idea why he’s still employed.

He has injury problems every year, it's how he plays, but nothing compared to Roberts.

Paul Maurice. Doesn't get enough credit

Nice weather, three million dollars a year, and no taxes. That's enough credit.

 

[Chardo]

Paul Maurice. Doesn't get enough credit

Maurice is the pompatus of love

but according to HFboards, Duchy is worth two 1st round picks

I think Pomo's real talent is not making it about him. So, it's fitting.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]
