We need more power play goals from G, Voracek and Ghost also. The entire second unit as well. Filppula and whoever is the odd man out on the top unit will help in that area too. It depends on whether we stick with Ghost/Voracek on the points or Ghost/Provorov.

Either way, the entire power play can be better. We can't have 61% of our power play goals coming from just two guys. That's not good enough.

PP could look totally different next year since they let Mullen go. Still a head scratcher to me, but it will probably look at least a little different.

As long as Gee gets back to normal this is fine but if what we saw this season is the norm from here on out we need to get better up the middle.

Well, if Patrick/Hischier become the #1 C's they are projected to be I think it's fine if the recent G is as good as it's going to get. But yes, I agree that the G of the past 3 years has not been #1 C material. Fingers crossed that it really HAS been injury related...

The Devils are going to take Patrick because he's not flashy and I'm perfectly fine with that, because I want Hischier.

Had he joined the league 15 years earlier, he'd essentially be Lindros by now. Two completely different types of players, but both producing at a high level and with serious concussion issues dealt with too. The diagnosis and treatment for them is just way better than it used to be.

Obviously we hate the fucking guy, but as a pure hockey fan, I would rather see both teams 100% healthy for this series. That said, maybe this series goes 7 games without him and I would like that too, just from an entertainment perspective.

I agree 100% agree letting Mullen go was a dumb idea and since hes from here if he ever comes to the Rags and makes their PP as good as our has been for the last 7 years we will be pissed.

Curious as to who everyone is rooting for of the teams that are left in the playoffs. Me, I'm 100% behind Nashville. I'd love to see Laviolette win another Cup and put another nail in the Paul Holmgren coffin.

I'm kind of leaning towards The Ducks but would jump on the Preds Wagon if they get beat. Riding with the Sens in the east, Obviously they have more heart than the Crapitals.

Looks to me like Nashville vs. Anaheim and then NYR vs. Pittsburgh. I would expect Anaheim and Pittsburgh to advance, but Nashville could throw a wrench into that.

Pittsburgh probably winning it all again if Crosby comes back within the next week or so, unfortunately.

Not rooting for anyone, but Nashville winning it all would be a nice story. Serious underdogs.
