No. Unload as in removing 5-6 pieces and trying to get different chemistry there? Yep. Same with most teams who don’t make the playoffs or get bounced out of the 1st round.

Yep. Same with most teams who don’t make the playoffs or get bounced out of the 1st round. They had a subpar season and just got swept. Does management look at the team and think their run is over, or do they think next year might be a rebound year? Not saying they will consider getting rid of Crosby, and/or Malkin. But there are some pieces that can bring in a good return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatorman0519 Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 I don’t feel so bad. Imagine if the Sabres had the season Tampa did then got swept? We’d be jumping off the expressway... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the kind of competitor he is. It’s not all alcohol induced. That’s what the convo was with inkman. Not about what Lehner has said or what Berglund is or isn’t doing. If you followed along from his first post, maybe you’ll see what I was getting at. I hope I made it clear now. Only tonight, he stopped and removed himself and went to the boards. And I just changed my mind. I'm not glad he found his smile. He (and Berglund) can go screw. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimlach Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 Burns coughed up a turnover, Knights 1-0 over SJS. Could there be a Reaves v Kane rematch? In St Lou ROR working hard; Blues so far looking better than they did in games 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s so hard to win. In team sports it’s silly to drill a guy for not winning enough championships. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 Just realized only 19 of the current 31 NHL teams have won a Stanley Cup. 6 of the 12 who have never won it are in the playoffs this year (Columbus, Winnipeg, Vegas, San Jose, St. Louis, Nashville). 1 minute ago, WildCard said: Doughty had a pretty funny quote on how Burns was up for the Norris but he's awful defensively Burns and Karlsson have both been brutal this series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
