But this is year is just not the year for the pens it looks like long uphill battle for us if we keep playing like last game.

Truth be told the NHL playoffs are a slog for any team. But yea...not happening.

Worst part for your team is that if Crosby and Malkin get their **** together you're done lol fluery is on point just our def is down many men and off isn't performing. The offense picks up its all over for the Rangers. They have been hanging on king Henry's golden glove and our pathetic def.

This game is showing it that we are playing bad def and multiple penalties yet only one goal let up. If we keep improving I can see us in the second round.

Classy ranger fans. Yelling Crosby sucks when he gets shouldered mid ice. Guess they forgot he has 2 goals tonight as well. Just saying.

We never claimed to be classy. I was forced to miss the majority of that nonsense last night, but the Rangers have their weak spots. As far as strictly relying on King Henry...he was injured for a good part of the season. Not to mention relying solely on a goalie's talents will not get you the best record in the NHL.

Well with that all being said we dominated them last night. Hoping it continues and we make it to the second round with a huge confidence boost

I have to admit, I'm not looking forward to this game tonight.

I've been so bad at following the NHL this year. But, I'm a Bolts fan, so I am happy with the end result.

My condolences to you, sir. Tough game last night.

Holy crap I'm so pumped about what's going to happen during the offseason. Predators are going to make some moves and I feel they could come back stronger next season than they were this season (they were the only team to come away with very decisive victories over the Blackhawks this postseason, but injuries and inconsistency hurt us).

Buffalo is my main team (nearest my birthtown)... and the rebuild is looking to truly take off. They need a netminder and some more offense (and they're likely grabbing Eichel in the draft and might even grab Eddie Lack off Vancouver).

FP - Rumors of Malkin headed out via trade market are heavy, and Nashville would love to have him alongside Neal for a true #1 O-line, but he might be too expensive (I'm thinking Jones and Jarnkrok expensive... or Weber expensive.)

honestly I can see that as something anyone would want although he sucked pretty much all of last year. but, I highly doubt we will part with him unless it's a great return for us. why part with a semi-young great player because anyone worth trading him for will be requiring similar pay so there's no benefit on the cap side of it.

I miss capgeek.

You guys need a shake-up in your D corps ... if you could get an upcoming prospect for offense to replace him plus a stud D man (Nashville has a LOT of those) for near the same money, the return would be worth it, especially down the road.

well if maata would stay healthy he would be one of our top D men and he's only 20. kid is an absolute beast.

we need to drop some age off of the D and gain some wingers who compliment sid and geno.

You from or live in Nashville?

I'm not too bummed about the cup. The Bolts looked tired all game.

On top of that... the Rangers are shopping Talbot and Nash, the Leafs might offload Kessel and/or Phaenuf, and the Blackhawks and Kings need to shed cap load. The Kings have to think about resigning Kopitar next season and don't have room right now to pay him what he's worth. The Blackhawks need the room to resign Saad next year.

It's going to be a very interesting offseason, even with the fairly mediocre free agent class.
