Habs aren't out of the woods yet. If something happens to Price or he gets severely injured, good luck.
Again, a lot of the people clamouring for Carlyle to be gone understand he's only a part of the problem. Hopefully, Horachek can get the most out of this mess as he can and let Shanahan see what team this really is before he blows it all up.
I don't expect much out of a mid season coaching change, especially if it involves a big system change. Even the Rangers and Flyers took awhile to get comfortable in their respective systems after a coaching change.
Still, for all I know, Horachek could be a miracle worker. He didn't have much of anything when he was in Florida...

That's the point!
Move Kessel... off the couch
Two weeks off, two weeks on.... the couch
This can be said for most teams aside from the truly elite. Bruins, Islanders, Rangers, Nashville, Florida, Vancouver etc would all be in a serious bind if their #1 goalies went down.
You can't keep me away from Hertl.
Will you still love him even with that huge cut on his lip?
Wounded and vulnerable now.

Stamkos for Roszival

He'd probably be a better player than Stamkos has been lately.

Getting real tired of hearing players talk about doing the little things.
Oh Leafs. What would we do without you?
.
It's not CapGeek but it's something http://nhlnumbers.com/
What do you expect them to say?
"I need to score more. I'm supposed to put that black thing into the webbed thing. I need to do that more. And we need to win more games. We're just not winning enough games. We should be winning at least 25% more games than this. And that guy, he needs to prevent the black thing from going in the webbed thing more. He does it like 92% of the time, but he should be doing it 97% of the time."
This is what I used before CapGeek and use now, it's hard to go back.

Would be nice. But I'd like to go after that Grand Rapids Griffins coach! FUCK OFF, CRAZED! GIVE US SOMETHING! >=[

Why would you trade the future captain?

I don't think we'll see much movement until the trade deadline, unless there was already something in the works before this happened. Horaspott will get 20-30 games with the current roster.
Although I would like them to move Bozak and Robidas.
God damn =*(

Do any Caps fans see similarities between Kessel and Ovechkin? Both are incredibly talented goal scorers with questionable defensive abilities.
I assume Ovechkin has had trouble with his coaches; how many has he had in his career so far? Some tried to turn him into a two-way player, others gave him the green light to do whatever. But one consistent narrative is the lack of playoff success. Is it Ovechkin, his teammates, the system, or the coaching? Does coaching and management build a team around Ovechkin to maximize his abilities or is he just a cog in a wheel? Sometimes I've even seen "trade Ovechkin" articles when the team is struggling because he doesn't seem to fit in.
I think the same can be applied to Kessel. Do they design a team and system around getting Kessel to score enough goals to win games, or do they develop a team that possesses the puck and is solid at both ends of the rink, with Kessel expected to buy in?

Hey Leafs gang, congratulations on your Carlyle-less club. I saw the news when I woke up and I danced with joy for all of you.
I'm sorry that I talked up Carlyle when you guys first got him.
To be fair, I also talked up Sammy Pahlsson when he became a Canuck.
Ahahaha I totally forgot this happened.
All I remember is Traitorsson shooting a puck into Scottys face.
Traitersson...
