They gave up a kid who's going to be a good regular NHL defenseman, for a guy who's 34 and doesn't have much left in the tank. Dallas did good here, this only benefits Pittsburgh if they win another cup this year, which will be dependent on their D and goalies again not their offense.
Gillis will have the most drawn out fleecing in history, just you wait!
The only one someone gets fleeced in a Luongo deal is if it includes a snuggie

WTF game was at 5pm. Caught a bit of the 2nd and Markie is beastmode. Howden is also really impressing too, he skates so fast with the puck. Funnily the team is putting in more checks and grinding out this game, no cute shit and the game is close. Where was this team after game 1?
Did I miss something between you two?
Lecavalier is injured for 3 weeks at least is he not

Yeah, that would immediately improve both teams. FUCK, do something!
As much as I wouldn't mind having Lecavalier on the team, there's no fucking way I'd want his $7.7 million cap hit until eternity on this team.
I'd rather compliance buy out Luongo than that take contract.
Luongo's contract is better than Vinny's in that at least with Luongo's the cap hit is reasonable.

Lecavalier in untradeable. And it's not just because of the contract, it's because he's fucking made of glass and suffers one or two injuries every season that's basically killed his production.

Ovechkin woooo
He could have two goals if they credit him with the first one.

I was enjoying the long break with no flyers games, it was like a playoff preview.
Penguins -17
Flyers - 16

The Flyers 6 day lossless streak is in serious jeopardy today.

Yup. Used to it now. Tomahawk Markstrom in the back of the head? No call. 2 cross checks before the 1st empty net? No call, ref was there just watching. The 2nd one is the exact same thing Robak got 5 and a misconduct for last night. Markie was still a beast though.

I guess they dropped out of the Iginla sweeptakes cause they would've had to give up more?

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
It was a great game to watch aside from the no-calls.
I won't believe you until I see a list of shitty teams they are better than
I aer here in the rafters.

Things were looking pretty dire for a while there, but a great turnaround in the last few minutes. Lol @ the first goal being Asham from Newbury, both guys having their first games back tonight.
Goals from our fourth line and the power play?! What wizardry is this?!
The Caps are much improved from the previous times we played them this year. We can't play the way we did for most of the first and still expect to win.

Holtby let in some easy goals. We looked like the 2010 team before that.
Asham has an underrated shot, but yeah, Stepan's goal was a bad one for Holtby to give up. Step seems to have a talent for making Holtby look particularly bad.

Expecting more fight from Calgary than usual tonight. Halak will look iffy. Stew will Stew. At least a point for Tarasenko if Perron starts noticing when he's wide open.

Hey at least it looks like a hockey game so far...

They were never in the Iginla sweepstakes. Half of the rumors like that are just because it's the penguins. What would we even give up?
I guess Babcock wants to see how far he can go before getting fired?
Was just going to post this... WTF?!?! God Babcock is a terrible coach. Nyquist and Brunner on the 3rd and 4th lines now (well now one is scratched).
Probably Bennett, a roster guy (Kennedy or Dupuis?) And maybe a pick. Not worth it.

Not worth it and still junk compared to what others will likely offer. They're not a serious competitor just like all the other big name people they didn't sign.

Who are these teams, and what have they done with my Flyers Pens game? There should already be 7 goals scored.
