Binnington is junk.

He got hot at the right time last year and when all is said and done, he will be an NHL footnote

Perhaps, but he was ridiculously good for half a season and long enough to win a Cup (and turn a potential top pick for us into #31). That's a good run even if it doesn't turn into a long career.

And... no game sevens this round. Shucks. (Well, unless STL scores 4 in the next two minutes)

He was so arrogant about his success last year too.

I think Vancouver just showed more desire and wanted it more. They have good balance on that team. So with ROR gone, if Vegas beats the Canucks and goes on to win it all maybe this is the year we get a Conn Smyth for Lehner ?

I would be so glad for him...also if Boston win the cup then Halak of all people would be a shoe-in as Boston would be screwed with Rask leaving unexpectedly if not for Halak

How on earth do you play him in this game? He's been awful all summer! You need to win 1 game and you say "hey, throw the guy that's 0-4 between the pipes. He's due!" 

Is this like continuing to play a blind Carter Hutton?(did they know he was blind?) Or is it more like in 2011 when Patrick Lalime looked like he'd never seen ice before and we let him go 0-fer(but we did call up Enroth, and that was actually a good move)

Who knew what and when is a really interesting question. If Botts knew, would he want that news getting out? Could he trust anyone knowing? I have a feeling they tried keeping it a secret (for obvious reasons) and when the news later broke the Pagulas fired him.

How does every other team in the league manage to draft players who develop and contribute? 

Coming to 1. a bad team with 2. a deep culture of losing in a 3. city they would rather not be in would top the list.

C’mon COL. Even though Kadri can eat Shhhhhh, I still hate DAL more ?

Not that I've seen him play much but Nazim has become much more palatable now that he's not on the leaves.
