  1. "calf strain" might be detroit's secret weapon in the playoffs.

    i wouldnt be surprised to see harden or mitchell suddenly come down with a case of the "franz's" if it goes 6 or 7 games.

  2. cleveland is a bad matchup for detroit size wise because they can take duren's game away like orlando did.  but theyre soft and their two best scorers are notorious playoff chokers.

    i think its cavs in 6, but if it goes 7 i think detroit will win.

    Look at what Thompson did to Bane this series.

    do you put thompson on mitchell or harden?

    That Jakob Poeltl extension will haunt Toronto.  Around $28 million per starting next year.  He played 19 MPG and gave them 7 points and 6 rebounds per game in the Cleveland series.  He was pretty much unplayable at times.

    Are you paying attention, Trajan?

    Most expect Orlando to fire Mosley. The first name I read in the rumor mill to replace him is Dusty May. 

    College coaches don't have a good track record jumping to the NBA. Can't imagine why they would want to go the junior varsity route.

     

    billy donovan has been linked to it too.

    dusty is going to be linked to every big job.  the nba is such a different animal, who knows if he would do well.

    Cossa had a .233 GAA and a .915 save%. He was to 8 in the AHL in save% and third in wins overall. Let's not act like Cossa is truly a bust. Yzerman just hasn't given him a chance to truly prove himself at the big league level. 

    i dont know if cossa is a bust or not, but goalies are weird and come from lots of places.  i dont agree with drafting one in round one because of that.  just a personal philosophy.

    cossa hasnt done anything so far and has been outplayed by postava, that's why postava is starting.  in fact, cossa has faded badly down the stretch for two years in a row. cossa still has potential, that's why they should trade him this offseason before the shine completely wears off.

    So Montreal has a ROOKIE goaltender starting and winning a Game 7 playoff game. Meanwhile, our GM thinks so little of the goalie he drafted 4 years ago that he keeps Talbot on the roster over him. Why even draft Cossa? Just cut him if you think that little of him and admit he's a bust and that Talbot is a supreme being. 

    our first round goalie who cant eve  start in the AHL playoffs?  who has been beaten out by an undrafted free agent?  THAT first round pick?

    the moral of the story is not "why is our GM not playing our first round goalie," but rather "why is our GM trading up in the first round FOR A GOALIE?"
