crap win by Carolina. Sorry to the Carolina fans out there.

grr.

If it wasn't for the shitty first half of the season Carolina would be in the playoffs. Glad to see that they look like they'll be good next year.

Yeah they are probably going to suck untill the end of the season ( and I hope they do to get a good draft choice ). I think this season is over for me , see you at the draft.

i knew 2 weeks ago we weren't making the playoffs. now i'm just wondering who's gonna be new to the team next year


i'm sick of saying "oh well. maybe next year will be better". we've gotten new players, owners and coaches. they need to stop sucking and contend again already.

'Yotes pull off another win against Florida. The Panthers are dissapointing. Vokoun stops 40+ shots a night and is in the top five best goalies in the world, and yet Florida doesn't try to back him up with any offence or defence. Perfect proof that you need more than just good goaltending to get anywhere.

If I was Lawton for next season I would Let go those Unrestricted free agents

Alex Tanguay ( awful season )
Brandon Bochenski ( he sometimes plays well but at 27 he had his chances )
Mark Parrish ( just not good enough )
David Hale ( not a very good d-man )
Antero Nittymaki ( he is a good backup and I would like to keep him in TB but he is likely going to have a substantial raise in pay )

Unrestricted free agents I would keep

Stephane Veilleux ( good defensively )
Zenon Konopka ( we need at least one good enforcer and he is a popular player )
Kurtis Foster ( great on the PP )
Mike Lundin ( Biggest surprise this season for me , he has played great )

Lawton should re-sign all his restricted free agents ( Steve Downie , Nate Thompson , Teddy Purcell , Paul Ranger and Paul Szczechura )

He should try to make a trade for a good goalie ( I would really like to have Minnesota Wild backup Josh Harding in Tampa )
 
Red Wings in the 8th spot playoff wise, 7-2-1 in the last 10 games. Thanks to Franzen and Holmstrom for surging!
 
Nice 5000th post!

God damn Wings get in every year. 'Spose their coach won the gold medal and didn't get in how messed up would that be.

Thanks!

They do have the pro-sports record of getting into the post season. Hope this surge continues deep into Stanleys Realm!

Unless they face the Sharks in the first round, the Red Wings won't be making it out of the first round. :2 cents:

History tells allot, but it is a new season, I agree. The Sharks have not made it to the show and have underperformed lately in the playoffs. Seeing is Believin'!
