Belsy91 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 If the Penguins weren't Stanley Cup favorites before this trade they defanitely are now, good for Iginla, class act, deserves to get a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Surfer Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Cox is out to lunch; a first round pick is a first round pick. Can anyone tell us about the prospects also included? And best wishes to Iggy and the Pens in the East! Pretty easy to cheer for Iggy and Crosby; good Canadian kids! Can never wish an eastern or American team wins a cup though! Derp; Uhmmm > Go Canucks Go! Cox could be dead wrong actually and ironically. The Flames did get something for Iginla. They definitely got themselves a first round pick. That pick could turn out to be a Tyler Seguin or a Dougie Hamilton. They could also get themselves Iginla, right back home, in a few months, after a fairly fun playoff run. They set their captain free for a few months to have a shot at a Cup, and then Feaster throws some more mad money, as he tends to, at Iginla as a UFA to bring him back home. This could be a very good deal for the Flames actually. The unconditional 1st leaves that possibility open - and a couple decent college prospects not that far from NHL ready... The Flames tank a little more, get a higher pick, and have a pair of picks in the first round. Could be a win/win for them if Iggy indeed is leaving on collaborative/favourable terms - to where he wanted to go on playoff vacation. Who knows? Not Cox, that's for sure.

Twilight Sparkle Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 what was your point about the RedWings again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmpunk Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 No when he won 4 Vezina and 2 harts or what ever the hell it was with buffalo. He seriously played like Cory is now for 4 years and singlehandedly beat team Canada in the Olymics. Not saying Cory will do that but it has happened.

Smashian Kassian Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Not that much? Add Kassian, subtract Torres. One can fight, the other can hit. Add Sestito, remove Manyy. A big net loss! But we can fight better. Add Garrison, remove Erhoff. Certainly bigger, better? Remove Salo, Much bigger role for Tanev. Not that bad but we're smaller... If its about size tell me we're better? I'm not so sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noheart Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 We are seriously now comparing Schneider to Hasek already......no comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Sparkle Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I'm saying it is very possible for a goalie to stay stellar for 3 months. Hasek is the most extreme case in NHL history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crom! Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Quick had to play lights out for most of the year last year to get the Kings into the playoffs. He had to constantly win 1 goal games to give his team a chance. There's a modern day example of a goalie who isn't a legend but was able to play lights out for an extended period of time. He's just trying to say it's possible. Despite none of this is being on topic, I posted this because it seemed like this poster was being ganged up on.

Canuck Surfer Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Geez; when was the last time had a team with three Art Ross winning forwards on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnsey Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I hope they win it this year. Of course I would love the Canucks to win it but Iginla deserves the cup more than most players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 As we've all learned, the favourites never win the Cup. It's easy to think the Penguins are favourites, but their defence is still suspect and hasn't changed much since last season. Letang just broke his foot. He'll probably be back just in time to start the playoffs, but will be back rusty, and Murray won't be seeing top-2 minutes. A good coach will analyze their blowout losses against Philadelphia and dissect this defence apart. The way it's going right now, the only teams that can beat Pittsburgh are ones with a hot goalie and solid defence. Here's looking at you New York, Boston, Montreal and Ottawa. Either a goalie puts up record numbers to stop Crosby and co. or the Penguins win the Cup in under 20 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~AngelBelle~ Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 haha good job Pits! Must have outbid Boston at the last minute when the original trade leaked? Anyway I would like to congratulate the Penguins first hand on their 2013 Stanley Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noheart Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 well of course it is, but why bring up schneider in the first place. in the end, you're still putting him in the likes of dominik hasek, regarded as one of the most unique and influencial goalies in the modern era, to cory schneider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
