Well it made for some fun and exciting games near the but ultimately we fell short again. This season, can be chalked up to the teams' inconsistencies, inability to hold leads, and last but not least, their lack of efficiency on the PP. What sucks the most however, is the fact that our veteran core remained healthy all season long, and Crosby at the young age of 36, proved that he's still an elite player in this league by having a milestone season, and yet no post-season for two seasons in a row for the Pittsburgh Penguins.

I think all coaches outside of Sullivan all need to be fired (since we both know they wont let Sullivan go)

Gotta assume with those abysmal PP numbers Reardon is already cleaning out his desk.

What a waste of two great wins by the Wings. This team isn't built for much anyway. 5 years into a rebuild and they still have the oldest roster in the NHL. Really hoping to see some of Yzerman's draft picks make the lineup next year.

I'm pretty sure Pittsburgh has the oldest team in the league

Apparently I'm mistaken, my bad; the local sports talk radio guys around Detroit have been harping on that 'fact' for two months now.

Fleury signs 1-year, $2.5M extension with Wild

Marc-Andre Fleury isn't hanging up his pads just yet.

The veteran netminder signed a one-year, $2.5-million extension with the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday.

More to come.

Give me 70 tonight, please God, before we lose to the Bruins again. Just one nice thing.

You gotta assume that Jerry is getting shopped this summer

Think this will be the hardest to predict. I think Vancouver will have the edge, but Nashville is looking like a serious threat.

My stepdad got tickets for my son and I to go to game 3. My youngest son likes the Preds but he also like Elias Petterson since his middle name is Elias. He has a Petterson jersey and said he is going to wear it and cheer for the Canucks, I told him I am going to sell the tickets if he roots for the Canucks.

18 and 18 will work!
Imagine the dilution of talent when it hits 36 teams?

Absolutely BUT if it works and money starts pouring into the league it could go full premier league/EFL Championship and the teams have enough money to start buying 17 and 18 year old Russian amd Swedish prodigies to strengthen their teams
