I don't know how the devils are broke but not the islanders.....

Devils spend money on things like decent players and arenas suitable for human occupancy, Islanders don't spend money on anything at all.

IDK man, Rick Dipietro has to run up some wicked healthcare costs.

I had intended to make a spoilered Yashin comment but got called for a meeting lol

Helm signed for 4 years, $8.5 mil. Cap hit of 2.125m. Will be a good deal or a great deal.

There's not a chance Oilers take Murray with #1. They trade down if they want Murray, but they've already pretty much said they're taking Yakupov.

Building a team reliant entirely on offense and 1 good defense man worked well for Pittsburgh for a little while.

At least he buys everybody hot dogs and soda.

The Wings did the same thing but without the offense for the last 20 years or so and it worked out pretty well for them.

Defense wins championships. Just ask Nashvil...nevermind.

Worked well for the kings

Put any other goalie in the league not named Quick on the Kings and they don't win the Cup. Their defense is solid, not spectacular. Although Rob Scuderi instantly makes everyone better.

Im sure Lundqvist could have won the cup with the Kings.

Quick was amazing but the Kings defense did a very great job if limiting teams coming in on Quick and getting in front of him and also clearing the puck/blocking shots. Quick sometimes over plays the puck and leaves the net open, but there was always a defenseman there to clear the puck out of harms way.

[Brill Weave]

Yes his name is Scuderi!!!

[BadKarma]

Quick is the only goalie who plays the entire game with his stomach on the ice

[Deader2818]

Yes his name is Scuderi!!!

Lol, you gotta Admit, Scuderi, Mitchell and Greene is a pretty solid core for stay at home defensemen.

[Brill Weave]

I'll give you Martin, Kennedy, and the Pens 1st rounder for Scuderi.
