Around the League - Why can't our team be as much fun to watch as other teams?

Cory Schneider is good just saying.

I have literally been predicting him to win the Vezina this year for weeks now.

Everyone who doubted me will eat crow when Schneider establishes himself as the top 3 goalie he is.

But seriously though, yeah he's really damn good.

He's a really good goalie, but I don't think the Devils will continue to be a great team over the long haul and I don't think he'll win the Vezina this year. I wouldn't be shocked, but I don't think it will happen.

The Oilers are such a mess.

The Oilers are such a mess.

no kidding hey? no reason for them to be so pathetic. Dallas Eakins is their biggest problem IMO.

Liés. Sucking for years is a foolproof way to not suck eventually.

I have heard this from a few higher ups, that Eakins is WAAAAAY out of his depth in the NHL. Funny, he was the "in demand" guy a few years ago.

Kevin "I know a thing or two about winning (and a lot more about losing)" Lowe is worse than Eakins. They've cycled through coaches with no hope in sight while this buffoon has been running the show.

the Bills and Browns have been proving this true since 1995 and 1965 respectively.

Including that stretch from 1996 to 1999 where they didn't exist.

Takeaway: It could always be worse.

Varlamov on IR

oh dear

 

[Lazyking]

Varly's backup, Berra just got steamrolled. He's out and a guy named Pickerd is in.

Dupuis took a slap shot to the neck.

Maybe JR. will want Semin?

 

[nobuddy]

They should cancel the NHL it is too dangerous.

it would be awesome to see Semin go to Pittsburgh and play on wing with Malkin. that addition would probably put the Pens right over the top. that would be fun to watch when Semin gets his game going and playing with a high end guy like Malkin. Pens PP ....oh boy.

Quick with a 43 save shutout against the Blues

To someone who pays more attention than me (bleedgreen probably), has Pickard busted or has he just been off the radar? Back in 2010 he was pretty well hyped...

I've said it before, I'll say it again: serious ****ing morons to let Krueger go, just because he butted heads with Lowe and improved the team messing up the tank.

Stupid defenseman rammed the Ottawa forward right over top of him. We were lucky to be facing an AHL goalie last night...

The fact that Edmonton still sucks so much is mind numbingly infuriating.

The fact that Edmonton still sucks so much is mind numbingly infuriating.

As much as everyone bags on them, what exactly can they do? Nobody wants to play there. They need pieces that just aren't available. A big possession two way center like Jordan would help a lot. And a top flight dman or two.

If you can't lure them there in FA, they aren't available at your spot in the draft, and nobody wants to trade them, what can you do?
