Changed my mind, these guys suck.
sivdrinks said:I guess we really are watching different games, Devils are controlling the puck yet again. Yes I know, they haven't scored. Y'all make it sound like the Kings are beating teams 5-1 every night.

Love having nothing at stake, other than reveling in the Debbies misery!! Mmmmmmm.....
Northjerzyg said:WHAT!!!! But they're better than everyone!!!! Just CAN'T SCORE!!!!!!!
sivdrinks said:Fixed. Terrible non whistle.

sivdrinks said:Embarrassing. Im happy for all you bandwagon Kings fans though.
sivdrinks said:It was great for Ranger and Leaf fans, apparently their teams are awesome.
That's not really an incentive though. I doubt Pittsburgh would take the offer off the table, but competing offers could possibly improve his deal.
Unless Vokoun doesn't think other teams will offer anywhere near that much, in which case Pittsburgh knows they can offer him less because he has no other option. But I doubt it. If it were all that likely, then Pittsburgh would have little need to pay the extra money AND give up a draft pick. Not to mention that there are a LOT of teams looking for goalies this year...

Here's a link to his interview: http://penguins.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=633774&navid=DL|PIT|home
While I think this may help them in terms of Goal Tending depth (I think Johnson played well but was unavailable for good parts of the season), the cap hit will be "interesting" as Pittsburgh is essentially at the cap limit.
Goofynewfie said:He didn't really have a great year so there was no garuntee he was going to get a better offer. Also there are alot worse teams to try and win a cup with than the penguins
Besides show me a year when terms aren't desperate to upgrade in goal cause I can't think of any, it is always in demand
No, I understood. I just don't get why he didn't wait until he was a UFA so that competing offers could drive his price up... especially in a summer where so many teams are desperate for goaltenders. Not all that important though.
But yeah... Pittsburgh can't really load their roster any further than it already is. It's already pretty ridiculous as it is, despite their disappointing postseason.

rjwhite41 said:Thank you. We're enjoying it. Game 4 is your big chance. Aren't the Kings only 1-2 in game 4's this post season?
sivdrinks said:Haha. Realistically the Devils are done, plus the Kings will go balls out to win it at home. I see a similar result to last nights game, Devils all the sudden seem to be lacking the heart they had in the previous two series.
rjwhite41 said:That has something to do with who they're playing.
sivdrinks said:No doubt, Kings have the best defense they've seen. Their speed on odd man rushes is killing them too.
ColbyJack said:For the record, NYR got 2 shutouts against the Devils as well.
