I feel like a solid center is the only missing piece to round out our line up. When Stajan is all you got something has gotta give. Faceoff percentages have been so frustrating this season. Hopefully other GMs take note that we are willing to deal and feaster can make something happen without taking a 5 mil cap hit now.

You're in 12th place. Sorry to burst your bubble, but you need more than a solid center...Unless your goal is to squeak into 8th and bow out in the first round. Then you might be accurate.

On Avs matching O'Reilly offer, one industry source believes it's a given they'll trade him a year from now.

I actually think that's why they matched immediately and didn't take more time to consider it. They could have potentially missed next year's trade deadline if they delayed.

So, Sabres fans, does Miller usually bail your terrible defence out like this? I've watched the last two games, and it's a fire drill in the defensive zone and then "pray Miller makes the save".

Sound right?

Yes. But you must realize our defense has improved the last two games. :lol

Edit: Although, to be honest, Miller hasn't been at his best much of the year.

Realtalk:

In 12th place with less games played than the rest of the conference (3 pts out of 8th seed)

Team burdened by key player injuries (kipper, backlund, sven, cervenkas poor conditioning)

The Kings were three points away from us, as they always are, last season, Cinderalla Stories do happen

On the other side..

Canucks were prez winners for how many years running? Had a lock for a cup win, blow it horribly.

You tell me whats crazier? Do I think we have a championship team? I've already said I'm not jaded, but things happen in playoffs, why should I deny myself the pleasure of being optimistic about it?

E: I'd like to add we got a new coach in a shortened season plus a ton of moves in the off season, it's taking a bit to get some chemistry going, from what I've seen they've only improved as the season drags on.

The Kings were a team that criminally underperformed all season. A team that should have been a division winner. They were also the first 8 seed to ever win a Stanley Cup. You are not the Kings, but it's cute you think you can be.

The last few years its literally been us the avs, yotes, and LA fighting for 7th/8th. I would not say its criminal that they under perform, that is a stretch, without carter and richards that never would have happened. Are they underperforming now? For coming off the cup I think so, otherwise its par for the course for the sutter/kings hockey ive been subjected to the last few years.
