For all the Karlsson fans here, fret not, he'll win one with the Leafs eventually.

 

Ughhh

Go preds!!!

 

Go Predators

 

Easily. I feel like almost all of my Twitter activity is just liking and retweeting his stuff.

 

ah fack i like kessel a lot. go pens

 

Sens in 6

 

Don't flatter @Jim like that when the Blues are still Cup-less

 

So I wonder now if any GM of a team within 4-5 points of a playoff spot is going to be more inclined to buy than sell at the deadline because "look how far Ottawa made it"

 

Could really go either way. Preds are the better team on paper though. Preds in 6

 

what makes you think that?

 

Should have worded this better. I feel like the Preds have a better 4 lines than the Penguins. That being said the equalizer for the Pens are guys like Crosby and Malkin. But when it comes to defense the Preds are definitely stronger.

 

Preds have a better all around team while Penguins have more star power on their team.

 

Crosby, Malkin, Kessel, Sheary, Hornqvist, Bonino up front is just crazy.

If only they had Letang playing this series would be over.

It's up to Rinne, Solid nashville D and capitalizing on Pittsburgh's defensive flaws to win this thing.

 

Nashville has the best defense in the league, as well as a lot of underrated forward depth. I think the loss of Johansen probably evens out the two rosters.

 

All 4 Pens series have been against teams that have never won the cup. Hope they hit a wall in Smashville

 

I'd feel a lot more comfortable about the Preds if Johansen was playing

I say this knowing full well they took care of Anaheim those last two games

 

hockey twitter is the best

 

I think if both teams are 100% healthy Pens are better on paper but based on who is playing and healthy now I think the Preds are better on paper. Think it'll be a fun series. Pens in 7.

 

So hockey at ESPN is now down to Melrose and Bucci?

 

Melrose, Bucci, Levy, Cohn and Pronman I think are the only ones left.

 

Nice guy, tries hard, loves the game

 

Arvidsson is so underrated
