Skjei, Pesce, Chatfield, DeAngelo all UFA's this summer. Slavin, Burns and Orlov all UFA's next summer. That's their entire defense. Every one of them. Skjei, Pesce and Slavin will definitely get $'s and term. Orlov and maybe Chatfield should do alright too. Burns might retire. DeAngelo well whatever. A question is who they'll be able to keep and it's not going to be everybody. They could lose 3/4/5 of them. Carolina will have to find $'s and term for Jarvis and Necas too. They've been a cheap organization kind of and it's not going to last and I think they're going to have a very difficult time holding their team together and being near as good as they have been in the next couple years. This year is their best shot and their window might close in the near future depending on how they manage personnel and cap in the next couple years and retaining Brind'amour might also be a question particularly if they go out in the next game or two. Perhaps the Devils will rise again but with the team the Rangers have we should control the Metropolitan for the next couple/three years anyway.
Remember 8 years ago when all Sam and Joe would gush about during the regular season, when the Rangers had like a 30 game winning streak against them, was how young and talented and great their defense would be. Hanifin, Pesce, Slavin, Faulk, Murphy, Bean, Fleury.

The Penguins have the most entitled fanbase of all 32 in the league. That's what happens when you go from Lemieux, Jagr, etc. to Crosby, Malkin etc.

The amazing thing is that these people abandoned their team in the intervening years when they sucked, forcing the NHL and Lemieux to save the franchise from relocation. At lot has changed economically in Pittsburgh in the last 25 years, but I'm still intrigued to see the Penguins attendance when Crosby and Malkin are gone and the team (hopefully) is a bottom feeder once more.
I can’t speak for the entire fan base but HFPens is very solid. If they’re upset it’s probably just because they want Guentzel to succeed.

To be fair 4 of those guys turned out to be really good.

Why does this fanbase love pulling receipts on each other so often??

Everyone should be more like me, i'm almost always right and I never take the victory lap =)

Cut the hubris guy was right all along...
If you know what happens then he deserves to be the first name on the prize.

Carolina with Pesce still has a formidable defense.

Listen for the price we got him for. He produced. Not the same player he was obviousl but great to have around as a veteran even injured
I do love that he was a huge positive in the locker room (like Quick). Seems like a great guy. Loved seeing him with the team. He was a bit of a drag on the ice- I don’t consider his production very good.

Man I was hoping Canes fans would bail on their tickets for Saturday night and prices would fall. Instead all the local Rangers fans seem to be pouncing and prices are way up.
