    Re: 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs Thread

    To be fair, I said "similar" not "identical". I agree there will be a few bumps on the road and it will likely take a few years for them to peak. This assumes Lombardi manages wisely over the next two years as he transitions from stockpiling young talent to building a playoff team to finishing the job. He's done well to this point, but the toughest part lies ahead...

    As far as Kovalchuk goes, it fits on many levels and has to be enticing since it wouldn't immediately sacrifice any assets. But you have to wonder if they'd be willing to make him "the guy" and put 1/6 of their cap eggs in that basket. A contract like that would cost them assets eventually...

      I agree with you there. I think any team would be foolish to offer Kovalchuk much more than Gaborik. 6 years/45 million sounds about right. If Kovy wants more (and he will), let the KHL have him.

        Looks like Vanek will be in the lineup for Buffalo tonight and surprisingly it looks like there's an outside shot that Marc Savard might suit up for the Bruins.

        EDIT - now they're saying Savard definitely won't play. Still, the fact that he's close is good news for Bruins fans.

                    I'm glad that ogre Chara finally got a dumb penalty!

                      Great action so far! Boston is going to make it tough to bring it back to Buff

                        I don't think there is going to be a game 7. Bruins are playing really good right now! The old man came to play nice goal there.

                          What a nonsensical sequence of events leading to the Lucic penalty.
