Another weird hit and couldn’t go any longer. That’s as detailed as I’m going to get.

I would consider both since neither has done it or been able to play every day in the playoffs. I am happy to have options. I am still pissed at Samsonov for not playing the puck on Pasta's elimination goal!

I think cw is a Marner fan. We all like regular-season Mitch. We don't like a core that can't do squat in the playoffs. Nylander is signed and Marner isn't. The decision now is what to do with Marner. You're right that team could get worse without him but if the 7th playoff run with this core...

I don't give them any credit for their regular-season accolades considering their salaries and no playoff success.

I think Marner drew these lines on a napkin during that coffee date with Berube in the off-season.

The seasons almost over and the tinkering never started. Matthews should take some time off and try to get right. This would also allow some of the support cast an opportunity to contribute and get engaged because it will not happen under Berube with the core 4 in the lineup.

I don't think any team needs 8-figure guys killing penalties. Bad ice-time management. I like a two-way star but stars killing penalties is not a selling feature for me. We want these guys fresh and scoring. There are guys worth a lot less money who are very capable penaltykillers. I don't want...

I like how ugly Pac can play. I think we could use his and Domi's grit come playoff time.

Wow, that's some cautious skating by Hakanpaa. Be shocked if he plays if this is where he's at.

It's unbelievable how little runway any stray from the above lines has been given. A first-round pick in the toilet again. Come on Berube? WTF?

A definite the sky is falling vibe. I don't know, they will likely finish 2-3 in the Atlantic and have another hard-fought first-round matchup. Hopefully, our goalie and D can make up some of the shortfalls of previous years. I would like to think this is the best D and G the core has had. Is...

Same shit another year. The forward roster is pretty jacked, how is it possible we cannot come up with 3 lines that work? This article does a good job showing that the core 4 over 2 lines should not be considered untouchable to change. I have been begging for the core 4 over 3 lines all season.

2 games post deadline and I hate Scott Laughton. I don't actually hate him but I don't believe Berube intends to be anything other then a two line team. Tkachuk and Marchand are out so FLD is not even close to their full throttle.

3 teams, 3 cup finals in a row... still skeptical about the skin thing that forced him into retirement at age 38. One of those supper long contracts into a guy's retirement years to bring down the cap hit.

Who did well once they left OTT? Championship wise?

It has to be the best D and G with this core.

You have no reason to believe otherwise unless the D and G wins it.

No, no we don't.

Meh, I don't mind him but I don't think he's more than a 6 or 7. I didn't like the timing of the fight at 3-0, the crowd loved it and it seemed to contribute to the momentum change.

OMG, it's a business. It's nothing personal. Dubas' daycare is closed.
