  1. Im in LA. Kings game is on regular NBC and NBC sports.com....and about 2 other local channels.... Awesome
  2. @Mad Dog " This particular squad is far from heartless " Very true. They have a solid core. However the longer a player stays in NY after that big contract the more jaded they get....just ask Brandon Dubinsky
  3. @Philly29 I agree. I'd rather have depth with Mezaros,Bourdon,Gustaffson and Voracek to be honest. The only reason I say this is because at the end of the day Bryz is still between the pipes....and I personally think he plays better when he faces lots of shots (it keeps him in the game and focused).
  4. Why would we send Shelley to Adrondack ? .... that's a waste of a valuable roster spot that we could give to an 'overager' who has something to prove down there.
  5. The only thing missing from this is a hockey puck behind the goal line.
  6. @OccamsRazor My point is that none of those players drafted or aquired would matter if Bryzgalov was in net for the Kings. If the Flyers had Quick in goal during this last run someone would be saying how the Flyers did such a great job with their youth and aquiring players to complement them.
  7. Does anyone remember riding Leighton and Boucher into the cup finals... ?? Or was that some alternate reality ??
  8. Not really... LA has a bonafide Goalie ... and a pretty good team that surrounds him ... but nothing ridiculous. Replace Quick with Bryzaster and LA is out in the 2nd round.
  9. Yea, Gus showed some poise out there in the Pittsburgh series and reminded me a little of a younger Timmonen. Bourdon is solid and becoming more reliable and Manning looked like a pro in his first game. I vividly remember thinking "who the hell is this guy" and you never really say that about a defenseman unless the puck is getting slammed into our own net. Either way...it's a good problem to have.
  10. Which one of these guys cracks the lineup and becomes a regular in 2012/2013 ? I liked what I saw in Brandon Manning in limited use. What are his chances ??
  11. Best Ice 1.Wells Fargo Center 2. The ice in my glass of Johnnie Walker Black.
  12. I predict Homer makes a splash and signs : Marty Murray, Brad Tapper, and Mark Cullen...and maybe Niko Dimatrakos.
  13. @Podein25 Our team is built for speed with the personnel we have to match Lavi's system.. but we do not necessarily have the 'size' to win one on on one battles (which you say is the determining factor) -our skill guys like Briere,Read,Wellwood,Jagr,Voracek and to a lesser extent guys like Schenn and Couturier (youth) are not going to win one on one battles when things get nasty in the corners. So, in a way you and I are both right... it's the players, but those players were brought in because they fit Lavi's style...or (cough) SYSTEM.
