TrueBlueGED Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) Milbury or whoever the talking neanderthal is for NBC said Fluery is the Pens MVP this year. SMH!! Not that I'd rather have him than Crosby or anything, but he really has had a heck of a season. Edited March 16, 2015 by TrueBluePhD Quote
Stoner Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Looked it up to talk a friend off the ledge. Looks like the sweet spot is to get your game in shape and finish strong without shooting your, ya know. Cup champs since lockout, last 20 regular season games.06 -- Carolina -- 9-8-307 -- Anaheim -- 15-4-108 -- Detroit -- 12-6-209 -- Pittsburgh -- 15-2-310 -- Chicago -- 11-6-311 -- Boston -- 10-6-412 -- LA -- 12-5-313 -- Chicago -- 13-5-214 -- LA -- 12-6-2 Quote
carpandean Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Nope, that argument is dead. In data provided by the AHL, just 5.6 percent of games this season (through March 3) in the league have ended in the shootout, which is down dramatically from 15.6 percent last season. Of the games that remain tied after regulation, 18.6 percent are decided in overtime, compared to just 8.5 percent last season. I would have expressed that a little differently. Something like, "In both this season and last, roughly 1 in 4 (24% both years) games played were tied at the end of regulation. However, this year 77% of those games ended in OT versus just 35% last year." Quote
biodork Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Yeah, Guy LaFleur sucked. Gerry Desjardins wasn't anything either. Lighten up, Francis; it was a joke! Quote

He’s 10-0-1 this year, with a 1.39 goals against average and .955 save percentage. Not bad for a guy with one NHL game played in his career prior. Quote

While those are decent numbers, they don't appear to be hot or cold. Quote

LTS Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 The Penguins just might be the most easily rattled team I have ever watched. You'd think after 5 years of the opposition getting under their skin and then sitting back to watch them self-destruct, that the Pens might figure it out after a while. They have the persona of their captain. Can't say as I am too surprised. If I was them and they felt confident in Malkin staying healthy I would trade Crosby. Of course that's me.. but then again Gretzky was traded. :) Quote

LGR4GM Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Posted March 16, 2015 Would you trade the first pick in this draft for Sid? No, I would not trade the 1st overall pick in 2015 for Sidney Crosby. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Would you trade the first pick in this draft for Sid? I would. I'd take a proven generational talent over a possibility of one everyday and twice on Sunday. Sid has proved himself in this league. Quote
Hoss Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 I would. I'd take a proven generational talent over a possibility of one everyday and twice on Sunday. Sid has proved himself in this league. If it weren't for his injuries I would consider it... But he's too fragile. I say no. Quote
Rasmus_ Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 I would. I'd take a proven generational talent over a possibility of one everyday and twice on Sunday. Sid has proved himself in this league. He's also going to lose a step or two in the next year, is semi injury prone and sure he's a generational talent about to hit the other side of 30. Sorry, no thanks. If you want to trade it for Steven Stamkos, I'm more than happy to haggle. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 If it weren't for his injuries I would consider it... But he's too fragile. I say no. Yeah, that's a good point. Maybe he is fragile because he doesn't have enough toughness around him in PGH? Quote

Sorry, no thanks. If you want to trade it for Steven Stamkos, I'm more than happy to haggle. So he can walk in free agency in two years? :p no thanks. Give me the generational talent that is under organizational control for a while. I'd be far more lenient with the number two pick but I'm probably still not trading it. Quote

Sid has proved himself in this league. Pure logic says your right, but.. Emotionally speaking, I want my own farm raised, watch him grow generational talent. I want the Sabres to take this once in a hockey fans life time chance and run with it. I want to see him and a team mature together and win together. That is what this year has been about to me.

Sid has proved himself in this league. I wouldn't. McDavid is a cost-controlled asset for the next few years, is 9 years younger, hasn't missed major time from concussions, and looks like Bubbles.

Eleven Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 I wouldn't. McDavid is a cost-controlled asset for the next few years, is 9 years younger, hasn't missed major time from concussions, and looks like Bubbles. He looks more like Bieber than Bubbles, but the 9 years younger thing cannot be overstated. Quote

Stoner Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Does it follow then that Pittsburgh would make that trade? Quote
woods-racer Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Perreault ... ;) Yes! But even I was but a young lad then, not truly able to comprehend what was happening, and the magic of the time. If I have to wait another 40 years, I dare say I will probably be in the same mental state as I was for the Perreault era, and hopefully as happy! Quote

It's a shame the Isles pick the year we have their pick to all of a sudden be great. Now Snow looks like he knows what he's doing - which, um, maybe he did all along... No way he trades it if it was another top 5 unless he had 2 & 5 and wanted 1. Quote
