Toughness and Physicality are defining these playoffs
Glug Datt replied to *Buzzsaw*'s topic in General Hockey Discussion
the difference isn't just having great beastly men on your team.. sure they're likely more durable, but there's more to it at a team level. there's a difference that I see when some teams are winning games in the playoffs. I'd best describe it as 'jump'.. when the whole team seems to be in beast mode, everything seems to just be working in their favour. in the TOR / BOS, NAS / DAL series, it seems like the power swaps back & forth game to game.. for Tampa, they played hard, but Columbus just seemed to be a little more feisty and confident. its like one team brought in an 8-ball of Columbian Bam Bam, while the other team is drinking lime Gatorade.. -
mostly agree with this.. and it shows that there's no real need for a high priced UFA this year. Edler is of course a big question mark, I would guess he signs a 3 x $5ish if he really wants to stay. As far as big Nik, he bolted on us, will he break contract with his current team? Will that sour things in the K if he comes back here and it didn't work out? Or would he even come back here if he wasn't sure and committed? I think he'd want at least 2 x $4 to make the move. And I think it's well worth the experiment. In the meantime, I see Schenn on a 2 x $1.25 to shelter Quinn and provide grit. Not sure how long he can keep up that pace, but I'd like to find out. Hutton turned things around this year, but he's 25, how much more will he improve? We'll get a sense of where he stands with his next contract. I would suspect an extension or arbitration. OJ better get ready quick cuz Tanev won't make it to Halloween.. lol Bring back Tryamkin if we can, but if not, assuming we have the 7 of Edler, Tanev, Hutton, Stetcher, Hughes, Schenn & Biega, and with Sautner, OJ & Rafferty in Utica, I believe we're good for another year.

Exactly. Pearson has performed admirably, but I would love to see him forced down the chart - then we know we're deep. The only change I might make to your line up is putting Motte on the 4th line, he was solid. Put Virt on the second line and if he can't make it happen, part ways with him or maybe Leivo. Jake really shouldn't be a 4th line guy.. I think Sven is an ideal 2nd line wing, but unfortunately he's too fragile. Much like Tanev & Sutter, eventually he will need to be replaced..

[SUSPENSION] Kadri Suspension - Rest of Round 1

did I see big Z mouth the words 'you're dead' at the end of the scrum? Kadri should welcome a 5 game suspension and hope like hell the Leafs make the next round -

JB: I’ll make the phone call about the 1st overall pick
Glug Datt replied to Generational.EP40's topic in Canucks Talk
what would balance out 10th + Markstrom for 1st + Schneider? -
14 - Nylander or Larkin 15 - Konecny or Merkley 16 - Joulevi or Tkachuk 17 - Glass or Vilardi or Liljegren 18 - Bouchard or Dobson I was not impressed with Virt.. stoked about OJ.. Boes, Petey & Hughes were nowhere near my radar.. well Hughes a little bit I guess, but I still wanted Bouchard

I don't know man.. last I looked, they weren't exactly stacked with quality goaltenders.. not that I really want to part with one of ours
