Literally who can stop them? It's the same team with injured guys getting healthy. Crosby will win the Hart (again). Phil Kessel will have 40+goals. Murray will win the Vezina and the Calder. I would say cap it but you all know it's happening anyways.
i just got instantly banned on twitter for calling some stl cards fan a faggot. what a pathetic fuckin' website.

Not overrated. Everyone can see that he has some big holes in his game, but he also has obvious talent. His team defense bailed him out a lot, but he did make some great saves. His ability to shake off bad performances and come back better is huge, though.
Still, not sure if he's ready for a full season of starts. Team can't play playoff-level defense through a whole season and come out the other side healthy.
Why was Cuba Gooding jr in the penguins locker room celebrating the win with the team?

They're getting lit up next season because of the new goalie rules.
Ovechkin is still a more complete player than Crosby
>>68425101
>le slapshot from the red dot man is more complete than sidney crosby
lmao
if I had to guess, ovi is the reason the capitals aren't as good as the penguins. Both teams have stellar forwards and only the capitals have a great goalie between them. The leadership and versatility of crosby mustve been the deciding factor there
ovi isn't a leader
>>68425101
lol
>>68423198
McDavid 85-90
Eichel 65-70
Larkin 50-60
Domi 50-60
Ghostbear 40-45
>>68425101
There's literally no evidence in support of that opinion. Ovechkin's shot suppression numbers are actually awful, he comes out ahead because his generation is really good. Crosby is elite in both departments.
>>68425101
Do you want me to give you 2 reasons why this isn't true?
>>68416229
It wasn't a boring sweep, so not worst ever by default. Very little advertising for it, and no"story lines" really pushed. It's not the players fault that NHL marketing sucks

I'm going to go full autist soon and make one divided by states for U.S. and Canada and one with cities for Europe
Now that I think of it, has there ever been an African player in the league ever? A South-African maybe?
Jeremey Roenick: "Some people are saying Matthews could be the best player ever to come out of USA Hockey… Better than me, better than Modano. That’s saying something. And it’s his hockey mind that separates him."
nnamed Scout from a Canadian Team: "People don’t know how good he is because he wasn’t around to scrutinize all year. I think that’s a huge advantage for him. The team that gets him is going to be incredibly surprised just how good he is. I hear things like he would have gone third in last year’s draft. Are you kidding? "No disrespect to Eichel, but he couldn’t carry Matthews’ skates to the rink. His impact in the NHL is going to be special."
Ron Wilson: "I’m really surprised with Auston Matthews… he’s a good boy, trust me. I couldn’t believe how good he was."
Marc Crawford: "I have no doubt that he’s going to be a top No. 1 centre in the National Hockey League. He’s got the same vision, the same presence with the puck, the same take-charge attitude as McDavid and Eichel. I don’t want to put the pressure on him that he’s going to be a franchise player, but he’s going to have no problem fitting into the NHL."
Dan Marr, chief scout for NHL Central Scouting: "Some will suggest guys like Puljujarvi and Laine have gotten into the conversation for No. 1, but don’t believe it." (Matthews) is the real deal. This kid only has an on-switch. He’s even hard to play against in practice. He’d have been in the mix with Eichel and McDavid."
Mark Seidel, chief scout for the North American Scouting Service: "Matthews has shown throughout the [world junior hockey championship] he is a franchise player. He has been the guy that every team game plans against and still been phenomenal."
Craig Button: "[The other 2016 top rated draft prospects] don’t do as much in the game as Auston Matthews. Austin Matthews is an elite player and does more in the game as a center-man… He’s every bit as good a goal scorer as Patrick Laine. He’s got a way better shooting percentage. Laine does a lot of it by volume [of shots]. He skates as well as anybody in this draft. He’s as tough as anybody in this draft. He’s as good a playmaker as anyone in this draft. He’s as smart as anybody… when I use the term complete elite, I don’t throw that term out [lightly]. That’s a term reserved for very few. He does more in the game than any player in this draft. That’s why he’s the best player in this draft."
Unnamed NHL executive: "He’s an elite talent… He has a ton of confidence in his abilities and a lot of poise, so he tries things that are unconventional. It makes him so hard to defend against."
Patrick Kane: "Well, I don't think he broke my record for points in a season, he crushed it. It would have been nice if he just beat me by one or two points, you know? But Auston is a player with a bright future ahead of him."
Chris Peters compares Matthews to NHL players who also played in the league during the lockout in 2012:"Looking back at the lockout season, a trio of high-profile, young NHL players played in the NLA. John Tavares produced 1.50 points per game, Tyler Seguin hit 1.38 and Patrick Kane had rate of 1.15. All three already had multiple NHL seasons under their belts at the time they spent the lockout in Switzerland. For Matthews to be ahead of one and not terribly far off from the other two is pretty impressive at his age."
Dylan Larkin commenting on Matthews dominance with the puck on his stick: "You can’t get him off the puck. And he has unbelievable hands."

Larkin will be better
Do you think kessel called Phaneuf up to rub it in his face
>>68428759
Nick Foligno compares him to a player he's played against in the NHL:
"Sounds a lot like a Jonathan Toews, if you ask me… It’s a tough comparison. I don’t want to put that on him, but when you watch him play — I’ve gotten to play against Jonathan for a long time now — and you kind of draw those comparisons. He doesn’t really blow you away sometimes with his flashiness but he’s always on the score sheet. He’s always making a difference in the game. You can kind of see that in Auston. So it’s pretty exciting for whoever gets him in the draft."
Marc Crawford: "He's such a great kid; he really is… Don Granato [Matthews' coach with USA Hockey's National Team Development Program under-18 team last season] told me that he was beyond belief in terms of how good a person he is and he was right. He likes the right people. All you need to know is that he wants to be like Jonathan Toews, and that says everything right there. By the second or third game he was the team's top guy, and by his seventh or eighth game he was the class of the league… You're worried when a young guy takes a premier roster spot… But our guys quickly found out not only how good a player he is, but what a good person he is. He's really popular with our group."
Don Granato: "He goes into situations and it’s like he carries no pressure with him. He wants to be challenged. He wants to go into the corner with the biggest, hardest, strongest guy because that’s the best challenge for him. He’s a unique guy in so many respects. I’m very fortunate, and feel very fortunate, to have him for the two years that I did.... I had the good fortune of coaching both of them (Eichel and Matthews)... no disrespect to Jack Eichel by any means, but I think Auston still has a lot to prove but I think he'll do that [laugh]. I'm pretty confident he will."

The thing is, maybe Murray is just another flash-in-the-pan Ward, but maybe he's also the second coming of Roy. The most likely scenario is he's something in-between, which is plenty good enough for the Pens to continue their dominance through at least next season.
Matt Cullan was playing with a broken toe since game 2

In December 2015, an NHL executive compared players from the 2015 and 2016 drafts: "If you asked me to rank them, I’d go McDavid, Matthews, Puljujarvi, then Eichel." Dan Marr compares McDavid and Matthews:
"Just talent wise, Connor [McDavid] has the cleverness, creativeness and finesse to his game where I would say Auston [Matthews] has more the power forward game where he’s really driven on the play but his puck skills are just as good."
>Yfw Phaneuf is the next former Leaf to wtsc
>>68429233
His blocker side, pads, and positioning are phenomenal. His 5 hole, stick work, and low angle/behind the net are average, and his glove is atrocious.
I don't see him ever becoming worse than average or better than above average.

>>68425101
Crosby literally just won the CS because of his completeness. Ovechkin is a PP babby. Hell, even Malkin is a more complete player than him.
>>68429780
Crosby won the CS because the media wanted to gift him the only major award he was missing. Kessel and Murray both deserved it more than him but the largely Canadian media that votes on the CS hates Bill so he was never going to win it. Crosby could have been scratched for the entire SCF and he would have still won the CS.
>>68429890

lol, either of them could have got it, Crosby was very obviously the one leading this team
>>68429890
Keep telling yourself that. I think Bill deserved it, but Crosby was not far behind. He was absolutely dominant in faceoffs, and his two-way play did not go unnoticed by voters.
>>68429492
Yeah his glove side is actually garbage. He better work on it cause I'm pretty sure the bolts and sharks exposed it

Bob McKenzie literally said today his ballot had Kessel 1, Crosby 2. He was ONE of the 6 voters outside of Pittsburgh and San Jose who did the voting.
You're a total fucking retard if you actually think there's some Canadian conspiracy at work here. The PHWA guys who cover those 2 teams are the ones who held the most sway - I don't think they had any bias either way toward Crosby or Kessel. If anything, the Pittsburgh media had written articles shitting on Crosby's performance recently. Rob Rossi etc.
>>68430166
no offense since you're an Ameribro who gets it, but it seems to me like a lot of American posters don't seem to get that a centerman is just inherently more valuable than a sniper/scoring winger.
For Crosby to be playing that immaculate game in the middle, driving play and freeing up easier minutes for the rest of his team to do damage against the Sharks bottom six, was huge for the team. If you remove Crosby from that team and you're left with Malkin who was like the walking dead, there's zero chance they win.
>>68429294
Game 2 of the Tampa series retard
>>68431197
This is exactly why people don't understand why Crosby won. Because they check the points total and start throwing fits. If you actually understood hockey you'd realize being a center has a broad impact on the game. I would love to see how kessel would fair against a top line in contrast to a 3rd.
Who do you think Las Vegas will draft from your team?
>>68431040
Rob rossi is an idiot
>>68420992
Pongs, Laffs, Broons, Blots, etc. He's right though. It's peak childish. Purposeful mispronunciation instead of making a coherent point is the MO of this board.
>>68431197
None taken. You also have to consider he had Sheary and Hornqvist as his wingers. Hornqvist is good, but he was on an extremely cold streak and couldn't find the back of the net, the empty netter not withstanding. Sheary in all honesty is an undersized 3rd line winger at best, and Sid was constantly covering his mistakes, particularly along the boards. All this while taking on the oppositions best lines. Everyone is saying Crosby disappeared during the Caps series, but the fact that he was able to virtually neutralize a line of Ovechkin-Backstrom-Oshi is just an incredible feat.

Yandle should be the priority to stay. He's easily the best defenseman on the team, especially last year when everyone else was crumbling. The biggest problem this team has is the slow blue-line and he provides the most offense out of any of them.
It took AV so long to figure out that Yandle was good and finally gave him more playing time.

They are going to dump Staal this off season and hope Girardi bounces back and has a decent season, then leave him unprotected in the expansion draft.
E. Staal and Boyle are gone for sure, they don't even have contracts. Stalberg is going to cost too much for a 4th liner so he's gone. Yandle will cost too much so he's gone, unless they move one of Staal or Girardi and decide to use the cap space to keep him.
All signs point to Nash being gone, he has a limited no trade clause but there is apparent interest around the league. His time in NY is up.
Brassard or Stepan is getting traded, which sucks.
Where does this team rank among Stanley Cup winners since the 04-05 lockout?

TRADE RUMOR (welcome to the offseason):
>https://twitter.com/StapeNewsday/status/742397920545263616
Islanders beat writer speculates that the Isles may make a push for JVR, with their 1st round pick in play.
Its not the most solid of a rumor, seeing as the Lou/Shannahan administration is very quiet about possible moves but it's fun to speculate.
>>68436003
That'd be cool. Isles would add another pretty good player that's not good enough to make them a real threat
>>68436003
The leafs better get more than a 1st rounder. I wouldn't do it JVR is worth a lot because of how friendly his contract is.
>>68436021
They essentially would replace Okposo with a better, younger Okposo on a great contract. Likely would cost them a decent amount though.
JVR is made of glass.
REEEEEEE
>>68436051
Ya I would hope for their 1st and like a B+ prospect (maybe Dal Colle idk about any isles prospects). Or something similar to what Lucic got as he is like a younger, less pesky Lucic.

Pete TheBoar: "I think we were great out there (the 3rd period). We lost, but we left everything on the ice. We tried our best, and we played our best hockey in that last moment."
Was putting 2 shots in 20 minutes laying your all out there?
>>68437888
6 shots total in the last 32 minutes after the Letang goal. Pens flexed their benis and it was too much for the Shorks to handle.
>>68437888
Lel such a pathetic effort. They outplayed PIT for literally ONE PERIOD in the entire series.
Who are the yotes gonna pick up in FA? They got a lot of cap space

Unfortunately as >>68438712 pointed out, they are waaaay to cheap to go after Stamkos. Also I dont think that was a real offer just speculation by some writers. TO wouldnt divulge what any offer was and honestly wouldnt take any offer for the 1OA that didnt completely blow them away.

NHL COACHING HIRE RUMOR (welcome to the offseason):

>PHOENIX (AP) — Final papers have been signed closing the sale of the bankrupt Phoenix Coyotes to the NHL.
>Notification of the closure was filed on Tuesday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court.
>Attorneys signed final papers on Monday and $13.3 million was transferred into an account that will hold the money until dispersal is determined.

Because there's a handful of American autists who have this insatiable thirst for Justin Trudeau.
Is it true that if you kill your enemies they win?
>>68445254
That's exactly what I'm saying is WHY, why would the NHL fight tooth and nail for Phoenix to stay when Carolina has shown more than Phoenix ever has?
Even this SCF they had better viewership numbers than some markets that had a team in the playoffs and this is obviously Carolina's all-time low point

Staple also has been saying for a while that the Isles are trying to move Halak. I don't know how much interest the Leafs may have in trading for a goalie, but I think they're looking to put someone decent in net, even if they're not looking to compete next year. He also said that the Islanders may look to trade the rights of Johan Sundstrom. He's still young, he moved back to Sweden last year and had a very good season. I believe he was playoff MVP on the championship winning team. He was also on their world championship team this year, and he's looking to move back to the NHL. I think the Leafs are as good as any to get a shot for him.
>>68446543
Leafs are winning the cup next year
>>68446018
Broons-Stars. Mediocre team that traded their best scorer for a bunch of crap (except Loui Eriksson) and with aging All-Stars Lite vs. their former best scorer and the points/goals leader (I forget which, I'm thinking of Benn) this season.
>>68446395
yeah, west teams should at least not be playing in the eastern time zone.
>>68446591
correction - benn was 2nd in points and 3rd in goals
Heeeeeeeeelloooooooooooo Reddit!
>>68446543
1st+Pulock for JVR
that seems like it could easily turn into nothing though. Isles pick is pretty damn close to where the first round is being said to drop off.
>>68446395
Detroit and Columbus were in the west before the last realignment, Leafs were in the West back in the 90s too. Just not enough teams out West to keep it real Western teams, Dallas used to be in the Pacific as well.
Just look at all the old American teams in the NHL, out West it's Chicago, LA, and St. Louis then the rest are in the East
>>68446782
Islanders are probably going to look to move Dal Colle before Pulock.
>>68447007
I'm sure they are since Dal Colle's trajectory is pretty shit. If he's all they're giving up then Arthur Staples speculation is most likely not going to amount to much.
>>68447007
>islanders moving Dal Colle
I see them moving Ho-Sang before that happens.
MDC, Mclovin, and Watson were the 2nd best line in the league this season. I still believe in him
>>68447152
He started slow, but once he was traded he was playing fantastic. It was obvious something wasn't right in Oshawa. He averaged 2ppg in the playoffs, I think he's back on track.
>>68447194
I can't see Ho-Sang having much value around the league.
>it's been 24 hours since the pens won the cup
>>68447235
the 2nd best line was Raddysh-Strome-DeBrincat
>>68447332
>something wasn't right in Oshawa
Most of the old roster either moved on or was traded before/during the first months of the season and he didn't get his first goal till 12 games in.
Also...

It tells a lot about your team when your color scheme shifts from appealing to Lakers fans towards appealing to Raiders fans.
