sweep the leg

If your scenario actually happened, it worked out pretty well in the end for the Preds.

Receivers that can get open will help keep him healthy.

Oilers would have to give them a pick just to take Schultz, never mind something good coming back.

You pass on De Leo & Petan b/c we need bottom of the lineup guys. Cormier likely sits and Lipon will be on the 4th line. Top 3 lines will likely be the same as they were last game.

Speak for yourself.

If it's on the internet I'm convinced.

Neal's an unlikable guy. Rumour was he got traded by the Pens b/c he wasn't very popular. I follow a few Pitt reporters on twitter and they said he treated the training/locker room staff like crap, which is a no-no in hockey.

Is everybody being racist again? The highest profile player on a team is always going to take the most heat when things aren't going well. It's like that in most cities. Obviously it's not always fair, but a lot of sports fans are idiots.

So far in this thread I've learned the following about Ladd: 1. It's clearly him that Wheeler called out. 2. He's is a ***** b/c he can't play through getting a puck in the face. 3. He's feuding with Wheeler & Little. 4. He's a terrible role model for the rookies. Anybody else have any insider information on how terrible a player/person Ladd is? I think we've pretty clearly found our scapegoat for this season.

Get your **** together...

$40M over 5 years isn't $9M per year.

His cap hit is already around $7M, so it won't be that hard to fit it in. Looking at the Kings' cap situation, is Dustin Brown's contract ever ugly...

It's not unreasonable to hand out a major for a crosscheck to the head.

I don't think we're taking more stick penalties this season. We were just able to overcome it last season.

Khari Jones is OC in BC. MB is their receivers coach.

Again you're embellishing. People thinking Brohm looked respectable in his start is very different from "freaking out" about how good he looked. Some people did get a little stupid about Marve though...

I didn't really like the call either, but I understood why the ref would call it. I'm fairly certain every Jets fans would have lost his **** if that happened to Helle and they tied the game on a goal like that.

I sense a high degree of embellishment in this post.

Yep, we really missed the boat by not trading for this guy. Overpriced, underperforming, and an idiot? Perfect...

Islanders haven't been nearly as good as most people thought they would be. Tavares is way under-performing, which I guess should have been expected after I took him with my 1st pick in fantasy.

Are you calling Hutchinson a great player, or were you referring to somebody else and forgot to add a paragraph break after changing topics?

Trading Mace turned out to be a bad decision.

Addison Richards will be a top 5 Canadian receiver.

Hovering around a playoff spot with the lowest payroll in the league and one of the youngest team's is cause for optimism. Bringing Helle up and his play to date has been the biggest bright spot. He's playing up to his hype and having a legit #1 goalie is huge. Our defensive play and lack of discipline have been the biggest disappointments. What we do with Buff & Ladd are obviously the biggest questions going forward.

Ladd was in front when Myers broke his stick. A big shot from the point is nice, but the guy taking it has to be able to get it off quickly and know where it's going. Buff's shot is sufficiently heavy for the pp, and all of Buff, Trouba, Myers, & Enstrom have much better offensive insticts. I'll take 5 of 10. Beating Nashville makes the trip a win imo.
