F this season, the Pens have completely collapsed ala Maple Waffles. Too bad they don't have any draft picks for McWaffle

Head scratcher that Babs is going with Mrazek tonight. Seems like you'd want your veteran (even mediocre as he's been since returning from his groin injury) to gain some confidence and find his game before the playoffs start. Its not as if Mrazek has stolen the job. If the Wings are one and done, and it certainly looks like they will be, hope we get the Habs because it would be more entertaining than the Bolts.

Rangers are 35-0-1 when taking a lead into the 3rd. They lost in November to Colorado on the shootout.

Well, it was a rough go in the last month or so, but at least the Pens made it to the dance.

Art Ross winner with 87 points. Lowest point per game total since 1947-48. Snooze fest.

I don't really think Babs heart is in it anymore in Motown. He's already thinking bigger.

@mirtle: Leafs finished the season with 11 wins in their final 51 games: 11-35-5. That is not good.

The Bruins didn't make the playoffs because they had a no-name goalie. If Shiarelli was smart, he'd call up Deano and would've asked for the universe for Quick or Jones.

And the greatest goalie to ever leave LA, Bernier. The ONE time Deano was fleeced ever. But, actually, no...he traded Bernier on purpose...

He's got that one qualification Toronto covets the most, that one quality that perfectly summarizes the history and future of the Toronto maple leafs.



































He failed at pro hockey.
