Respect Tavares how? He's a decent player, and someone I used to really respect. Can't remember if it was sometime on the Olympic team that he slacked off, or if it was some dirty play in NHL play, but something caused me to stop liking him as a player. He wasn't worth 11M AAV when he signed his contract, and he really isn't worth it now. Ultimately, that's on Sherman Peabody for offering the contract in the first place, but it counts when considering the value of a player. If Petey continues on his track, he is a better value, even assuming he's getting 10-12 AAV in his next contract. If EP signs for 8 years, he will be 2 years younger than Tavares was when Dubas pulled him away from the Isles, and taking a smaller percentage if cap while doing it. If he signs well north of 12M, then there's room for debate.

It's not a rivalry. Boston doesn't care... they took the Cup. For those of us here still pissed about it, it's lingering disgust for the BS we had to put up with in that series. What happened was far more than just putting the whistles away. Oh, and the string of disgusting things the Rat has done over the years and still turned into a top player. And I'm sure others could add to that list of offenses. The only thing the Bruins are good for nowadays is embarrassing the Laffs.

Oilers need to hire Dubas... he won't have any problem locking up 30M on two players. -
Panthers weren't supposed to beat the Bruins in the first place. Easy to bump them down priority-wise against other events, especially given their lackluster regular season attendance. I disagree with the delays. IMO, games should be on alternating days all the way through. Keeps the intensity going, as well as fan engagement. Also, I believe this kind of scheduling cost us the '94 Cup, giving extra days for the old fart Rangers to rest after flying cross-country.
