They need a defenseman who stands out a little skill wise. McDonagh has some of that but they really need a Yandle type. Been saying this for years, since Zubov.
 
Brassard should have come in there and just sucker punched that little bitch Marchand.
 
Yeah, that is the biggest issue no doubt Dis. The thing is, we will add a C to go with Stepan next season, but with Richards gone unless the new guy is really very good, that may be pretty much a wash, or a small plus only. That's the way it is. So does that really make us better?

Plus Richards will sign with one of our Met rivals and be a thorn in our side, mark that down as well.

Think about this. We have Stralman, Klein, and Moore all playing defense. We have 3 legit defenders and them 3 crap defensemen. Stralman is a 5 at best. Klein and Moore are both a 6 at best. We STILL need a crease clearing dman and a dman that can shoot from the blue line; same needs we've had for the past, what, 5 seasons??? Fuckin Sather needs his fucking walking papers. Hopefully Dolan won't want the team with them having to relocate MSG and he'll sell to an owner that actually gives a shit about winning and not simply money.

All defenders should be able to clear the crease, or at least put a body on someone.
 
Very good chance Richards will go 20 goals and 60 points this season. We buy him out and add another C, do we get THAT much better? That's the sad reality.
 
we will win this game its the kings birthday, pay homage to the king!!!!!

I remember a time when we wanted to play Boston. I think it was last season. Now they beat us down every game.

Jam is 100% right. We have very few big, physical, pound you guys and it hurts. Nash is NOT that despite his size. We have no one on D like that. Maybe Kreider can get there...maybe.

But right now we really lack size with talent.

They've got guys who are big, just not physical. As for Kreider, how often do you see players come into the NHL from College who are a physical force? I know their are some, but not many.
 
Depends what we do with that Richards money. If we can sign two players with it that fit better the system better than Callahan then yes.

They need to replace both Richards and Stepan, or make Stepan the #3 and lose Brassard. They need two bigger better C to really compete. This is their opp.to make it happen with Kesler/Stastny.
 
Kreider has been a different player since that boarding major. Much more reserved since then.

The problem SC is to me Statsny is pretty much Richards.

They are both 60-65 pt centers IMO and as a UFA Statsny will get Richards money

Dropping Richards for Statnsy is more of the same IMO

Kesler is interesting because he is only 29 and I think has more upside. Even if he gives you Richards production he plays with an edge and will give you physical play Statnsy or Richards wont
 
Stastny is better than Richards imo, plus youd have a lesser term contract. Even if you used him as a #2 its an upgrade over Stepan.
 
I agree that over the next 5 years Statsny will give you more than Richards but I really don't think Statsny will give more than Richards now. Look at their stats the past 4-5 years, they are very very similar.
 
This is the type of game where its painfully obvious you cannot give Callahan the type of money he wants
 
Good job there captain choke. 2-on-1 and screw it up miserably. Go to fucking Buffalo and disappear.
 
Bruins are getting away with an awful lot in the 3rd

Speaking of big mac in hartford 4-2 win tonight he had a goal on 2 shots was plus 2 and had a fight. The goal was actually a pretty goal as he took a cross ice pass from a teammate came in on the goalie and after a couple of nice dekes put it by him. No reason at this point he can't come up right now and take moor's place and add a little toughness to this group and get some experience on the fly. At any rate doesn't look that far away thank god
 
With the cross check Nash took behind the net, if they had some physical players, those kinds of hits would be greatly reduced.
 
Make sure you keep missing that net Cally. Maybe he's confused with his contract negotiations. Maybe he thinks MISSING open nets and NOT scoring goals means you're supposed to get paid more.
 
After hitting the post, instead of clearing the puck, the Bruins brought it down the ice while the Rangers were going for a change ... How the hell can any team be that blind?

They weren't even paying attention

I don't know why he can't learn up here as well
 
What a triple dose of shit: demoralizing loss to dick flyers, loss as usual to the more physical bruins and Captain Delusional sounding like we're going to pay him his ransom money for wearing the C.
 
This team is definitely built for the playoffs. A one and done playoff run that is.
