You're absolutely on ignore, but it's nice to click "show ignored content" occasionally to see the idiotic shit you're saying and trash you're posting about me every now and then.

That way I can correct you swiftly.

What happened to Carter Hart?

You lost the bet. Can't even uphold your end of the bargain.

Fucking terrible.

Showing my content is a weak move. Man up!
You cant even keep your word and leave me on ignore what a puss :pound::pound::pound::pound:

If you keep me on ignore there is no reason to uphold a bet. Simple as that.

Now I'll be perfectly fine if the Caps get swept in the conference finals. They've served their purpose already.

I'll probably keep rooting for them. I don't think it matters that much though. Jets/Preds are on a totally different level than the rest of the teams IMO. Only thing that slows them down is if this series zaps their energy.

Yes, I'll take the winner over Vegas. Probably Nashville.

It's terrible for the Nhl if Vegas were to make the Cup Finals. Yes, they fleeced some teams of their talent in order to not select one of their defensemen, but they also absorbed a lot of trash salary for picks. All of that and you have 36 year old Deryk Engelland averaging 23:32 per game on defense, good for second most on the team.

I just don't see it happening. Going to get exposed on defense by a powerhouse team.

Honestly i'm done counting them out.

Thought there was no way they'd make the playoffs. Made it.
Thought there was no way they'd beat the Kings. Swept em.
Thought there was no way they'd beat the Sharks. Kiled em.

Doesn't make any sense at all with that roster, so why should they start making sense now!

Well, they are getting a whole different animal in the next round, either way. I just can't believe some teams like Minnesota, Florida and Columbus got so horribly taken by them in the expansion draft.

yep. agreed. I think Tallon was secretly trying to help them be good. Giving them Smith to ensure they'd take Marchessault was asinine.

Now, just about any NHL team with a shot at John Tavares should pursue him. It’s a stance that we might as well copy-and-paste at this point. Still, the Sharks hold some key advantages over other pursuers, and they’ve earned specific mentions as an interested party.

Heck, the connection’s been made for more than a year.

They have ample cap space not only to sign Tavares, but also to make some other moves to supplement their group. If Tavares leaves the New York Islanders – a big if, by the way – he’d likely justify such a decision by trying to give himself the best opportunity to win a Stanley Cup. The Sharks stand among the better “win now” teams who also have space to add Tavares. They don’t need to make trades to clear up space for him, either. That’s rare.

It’s to the point that, to some Islanders fans, it might become an irritating meme.


If the Sharks believe they have a real chance at Tavares, they might find themselves delaying other decisions. That’s what happens when you can add the sort of player who not only has a chance to change your fortunes, but perhaps one who could take up close to 20 percent of your cap space.

There’s some precedent to bigger name free agents taking at least a few days to make their big choices. Brad Richards did it, Zach Parise and Ryan Suter added some suspense, and there were even times when things dragged out months when contract details needed to be ironed out, such as when the Devils loophole’d their way to Ilya Kovalchuk. Tavares might want a few nights to sleep on a decision.

Along with that, the Sharks will probably want to really get an idea of how much Thornton has left in the tank. If Evander Kane believes he can get a great deal on the open market, that might mean that his days with San Jose are numbered, even though there were signs that there was a good fit (especially for Kane).

When i asked why not us? While pointing out we beat the Caps pretty good this season. Someone here claimed they are always one and done and this year is no different . Guess that poster was wrong again. So it makes me wonder what could've been if we just played better against the Pens


Even if we played better against the Pens, we'd be in the same boat they are in.
Both teams beat the shit out of each other and even we had a laundry list of injuries.
So I'd have to say we'd of been screwed too.
But at least we hurt them to where they couldn't advance. :yes:

Great job to the Phantoms for winning big on the road tonight 5-1. Nice to get the home advantage back.

Yep. Big win with a lot of their top guns last night. Lindblom really stepped up.

Reinhart is an interesting one for sure. Might research that a little bit more today.
Reinhart is the guy I mentioned about this season at the trade deadline. I would absolutely friggin love to get him. Sabres will probably want some vets I would imagine to play with the young core they have.

We will never know but since we kicked the Caps ass all season long i can dream.
