The Rangers had to do two things to win this series: Lundqvist had to be the best player on the ice, they had to stay out of the penalty box, and the defense needed to shut down Ovechkin. Okay, 3 things.
Well they stayed out of the box in game 7 and won.
A08 should stop acting like this is the Penguins of 2008 when Bettman had a baby monitor on the bench next to Crosby. The better team won.
So Iginla gives Calgary a list of 4 teams he will wave his NTC to, but in reality it was only 1 team (at least after watching the Bruins defense last night). Poor Feaster.
Surprised Boston let MTL beat them to the Ryder trade. Maybe the Stars saw something in Eric Cole, but it's hard to believe Boston sweetening the pot with a prospect, pick, and gritty overrated forward (Nathan Horton?) wouldn't have done it.
Hartnell is a clown who played way over his head for a big contract. Now he got it and it's no surprise he's a lazy bum who won't come close to reproducing those numbers ever again.
Does he have another 30 goal season? Sure, but almost anyone on Philly's top two lines produces at least 20. BIG DEAL.
Doughty needs to take a page from Slava Voynov. Play responsible D, throw your body around, and set up teammates if the shot isn't there. The scoring will come.

I'd say best of luck, but like last season when you were with Philly, I wouldn't have meant it.
BETTER LUCK NEXT SEASON, #68
Colorado looks to be the perfect trade partner that nobody is talking about. Need a consistent goaltender BADLY and is overloaded with centers.
A 7th D-man, and a statue forward who will end up on the 3rd or 4th line.
That short list is going to make you awfully difficult to trade, Iggy.
