F him...did he mention his inexplicable propensity for DUMBASS penalties at the worst possible times? Did he mention those? Grrrr....
work computer won't let me link the part of the braodcast where they talk about it. A simple search would provide you the audio.
Never good when the inmates start running the asylum. I’d rather keep Sully and trade Geno. Dude has been a heaping pile of dog shit the last two seasons. Time to break up the old gang and get fresh blood. I’m even willing to miss the playoffs next year if that’s what it takes to rebuild. I just don’t trust JR with this massive undertaking.
the bold has been going on with the penguins since 1990.
I have been asking for a break up of the country club since 2012. I'd love to see it happen but I won't hold my breath.
Geno is dead to me.....no effort coupled with a sub 75 IQ = garbage
seriously, the guy can't speak english yet after all these years.
I'd love to see what could be acquired for him...problem is with the cap implications and his increasing age, I'm not sure it's as much as I /we would hope. Fans sometimes tend to overvalue their assets when it comes to trade bait. I'm often one of those guys...I'm gonna put some feelers out on this with a talking head or two...I honestly don't know what ballpark we are in with him. 81 imo is easier. More manageable contract dollars...
I think there would be a bigger market for 71 at this point...
Just gimmie a decent market for both or either, at this point...
If you gave me my choice of one player to send packing, it would definitely be #71. I am tired of his antics.
I dislike Subban very much so I am in the "no" camp. Having said that, I hated Darius Kasparitis before he became a Pen. When he was in black and gold I sort of liked the little devil. The same with Matthew Barnaby. I could not stand him when he played for the Sabres. Different story when he was with the "good guys."
here you go boys. mark madden and josh yohe discuss the locker room issues.

I think the Preds biggest weakness is 2nd line center and 2nd line LW and overall size in the top 6 foward group. If Kessel was a LW I think he would be more appealing. He helps with the size issues the preds have. I think Subban would fit in well with the Pens current defensive philosphy. He does make some bone head plays at times but also makes great plays. He isn't scared to hit. I know some of the insiders that follow the preds and they say he hasn't been a problem in the locker room. All the rumours that are being spread about locker room problems have come from 3rd party media outlets in montreal. I don't think Subban will be back with the Preds but that is more to do with Salary. The Preds need a face lift and he's someone who can bring a decent return. His 9 mil salary would not be easy on most teams but Im sure there is a deal to be made somewhere.
The problem with Malken is he's not a 1:1 trade unless you're trying to unload salary. He's more like a 3 to 1 and not many contenders can part with 3 assets and still remain a contender.
Subban is one of those guys you hate when he's not on your team but the opposite is true when he is one of yours. I don't think he will be a pen with a 9 mil salary.
Yes! Caps go home on Brock McGinns' 2 OT goal! Way to go Canes!
The Niskanen clearing pass from behind his own goal goes right through the great Tom Wilson.....is held in by the Jerks at the blue line.....and leads to the Williams-to-McGinnis series winner.
Way to jam it up Cement Head's......and 8's.....and Buzzard Flapper's.....and everyone else in red/white/blue's ass.

Its Funny that the Caps lost but I was kinda hoping they would win. I was hoping that they would lose to Papa Trotz in round 2. It would have been great if they lost on Home ice and all the fans could see the smirk on Trotz face. He is the man that ended years of failure so it would have been fitting for him to return them to there choking ways. At least thats how they would have drawn it up in Hollywood.
trade all three of them. I would love to see a change.
"T", you should be happy that in the poll conducted for the PPG, only 6% blamed goaltending as the primary reason for the 1st round loss.
Works for me. When I read quotes by players after the series saying that basically the Islanders "wanted it more", it is evident to me that something needs to change. It will definitely be an interesting offseason.
Worst thing for me is that now I have lost a lot of interest in what happens from here on out. As long as Ovechkin and company were playing, I had somebody to root against. I am still glad they lost though.
I thought about this, this morning and came to the same conclusion as you. then I realized there are some really good teams playing good hockey left.
nyi/carolina should be a good, hard fought series, same with jackets and bruins...
stars/blues will be interesting and avs/sharks should be entertaining as well.
really looking forward to jackets/bruins. officially rooting for blue jackets and torts (a great american coach)

What was crazy about the Caps - Canes game 7 is that the longer the game went, the more dominant Carolina was in my opinion. You all heard the NBC guys saying that Carolina was in better shape. I doubt that. Honestly it comes down to "want to" and shows exactly why this tournament is so damn hard to win back to back.
I'm sorry, I don't let the state of the penguins change my perceptions of how the game is played.
I am all in on the Av's...Fvck all of these Eastern teams left...especially the dirtball Blojax!
perhaps they will take out that dickbag marchand... something we can all get behind.
Yes for sure...however I want Chara to physically maim Jenner. An eye, a tooth or six, snap his pencil neck...any of these will do.
I’m definitely not rooting for that huge dickhead Torts! Effem! And same goes for Marchand and the B’s! I’d actually love to see San Jose finally break through. Be good to see Jumbo Joe get one. And to be honest I think that’s the team most likely to win it now. Haven’t looked at the odds yet so I’m guessing. Most of all I just want as many 7 game series as possible and as many OT’s as we can get. Nothing better than the Stanley Cup Playoffs!
