Yinz're going to win the Stanley Cup for the second year in a row and a thing which crosses your mind is "Ew, gross, we have to put Ron HAINSEY's name on the Cup?"? Yinz poor thing.

Never played in the playoffs until this year Ron Hainsey? Played on lovely Jackets, Thrashers, and Canes for most of his career Hainsey?

Good time to remind folks that Ribeiro has the 40+ regular season games required to get his name on the cup should the Preds win

I think Jake and Murray are pretty good no matter what team they're on. Especially Murray.

Sheary definitely got the Crosby bump I think.

kunitz and neal were very good players away from crosby and malkin but its hard not to see the bump they got. guentzel seems about that level of player, which is a very solid get, but i dont think that qualifies him as a star and i think a penguins team built around guentzel would be a pretty lovely team.

Last year's playoffs raised expectations too high for Sheary but he's going to be a very solid second line winger for a long time.

At the very worst he is going to crush it as a 3rd line winger on an energy line

Eh, don't underestimate the little fella too much. He's a solid as gently caress two-way forward and he's probably good for 30-40 points on another team with minimal powerplay time. Can't ask for much more for a supplementary player.

Depends on the team. He'd probably be pretty awful on the Devils. Conversely I wonder if you take someone like I dunno Miles Wood and swap him with Sheary. Is Wood a different player on the Pens? I'd say it's likely.

I think there's a ton of guys like Sheary out there who just don't get the chance and who could do good things on average to good NHL teams.

Yes but that's because the Devils are run by idiots. See also: the Ducks having no use for Carl Hagelin and deciding they would rather have David Perron.

e: See also also the fact that the loving Oilers of all teams waived Jultz and almost every other team in the league didn't want him, because hockey coaches and GMs are mostly very slow to adapt to the idea that defensemen who suck at traditional stay-at-home-defenseman things can still be good if they skate real fast and move the puck real well.

Oh Guentzel is probably getting a bump too given who he's playing with. I just think moreso than Sheary that he'd be good almost anywhere. Ditto MM.

perron has very clearly been better than hagelin since that trade.

Guentzel has always had the kind of nose for finding the puck and finishing that you can't teach and that is hard to identify in teenagers. I think if healthy he's going to be a consistent 30 goal scorer in the NHL even without Crosby or Geno and may score 40+ a year or two with them.

I'm just saying, the inconvenience of inscribing Ron Hainsey's name on the Cup is a small price to pay for a championship. I'd put Luca Sbisa's name on the Cup if it meant my dumb team won.

It's really disturbing how much of that 2009 team could feasibly be playing if they didn't wash the gently caress out. Fedotenko is 38, Sykora is 40, Kennedy is only 30, Cooke 38, Talbot 33.

Then somehow Cullen is still playing better than most of these guys at his age now.

Born and raised with it so I don't mind it but I totally understand why people think it's repulsive.

I only eat it when I'm blacked out, anyway.

Eric the Mauve: May 8, 2012; Making you happy for a buck since 199X

I'm surprised Talbot is only 33 but Kennedy and Sykora were pretty legendary for their lack of interest in conditioning if I recall. Coaches universally couldn't stand either one of them, it wasn't just Michel Therrien's usual inability to tolerate anyone who isn't a good (French) Canadian boy
