East Playoff Questions

[sportfan09]

i promise everyong on this board, if the devils make the playoffs i will in fact shit my pants.

but i'm not getting my hopes up until they are withing 5 points, and that has to happen within the next 12 games

i smell a you tube video moment

I seriously have paid no mind to their record... that is sad on my part. I thought they were still abysmal even with this "tear" they're on. 9 pts with 22 games left... As crazy as it sounds, that is do-able.

1. just trust that i'll do it, i don't think shitting myself on youtube would to wonders for my life outside SportsHoopla
2. consider that january 8th they were 27 pts out. while it sounds like a lot this year, consider that they are usually one of the top 3 teams in the east year in and year out, and they are playing like they history indicates they should now. if they can just do that, play like the team everyone originally thought they would be, then you say okay you have to win 5 more games then whoever that 8th place team is. it might end up being pretty frigin close.


but.... i remain wary

well i've been there sparingly too. busy eyar with work, but also, in all honsety i got a droid increddible and i've become addicted to using the internet on that thing, and its hard to post using it hahaha,

plus new girlfriend combined to the same old rat race to so free time is at a minimum currently, how you liking you're new look b's?


my only worry with them is that thats a lot of turnover for an already succesful team

 

[flyersfan4706]

No worries. I think I pretty much agree with him too. Just from a non fan perspective I do not think you'd have too much to worry about with TB or Boston.

At least the way it looks to me now.

Hey, I will be morry happy to agree with you come April.

I can see both teams being a threat, but also being first round exits.

True, but we didn't shake up too much. Stuart wasn't playing and Wheeler, while good at times, wasn't much. Kaberle looks really solid in the back and on the PP. Very, very, very pleased with that addition. Chris Kelly is good along the boards and seems good at keeping the puck in the offensive zone. Peverly, don't know yet. As a whole, I think we are better, which is great so close to the playoffs. I just think we need to work on chemistry a bit. But last night in Calgary they looked, for the most part, great.

Also, good to hear everythings good.

the atl trade made me scratch my head for atlant. i don't see what wheeler has taht peverly doesn't
