***KEEP ALL COMMENTS CLEAN***

My thoughts on my home team, Toronto will be made when I choose a best answer.

Answer 1

detroit redwings!!-do nothing. why change something that is perfect?? I say however we draft a defensemen or get a defenseman just because our defense was breakin down a bit near the end of the game.

Answer 2

What a Game. I was in Tears. I'm so Happy, Right now that i can't possibly put into words.

Answer 3

My home team - The Pittsburgh Pens. I'm proud that they put up a fight until the very end and so annoyed that just one inch more would have gotten us into OT..but such is life. It was an amazing series non the less and Detroit played very well as we all knew they would.

Our MVP is still my man Fleury aka the brick wall/acrobat extraordinaire. (even though I am so mad at him for sitting on that dang puck!!! should have never been a goal)

Malkin was in a funk the entire seired but he did score us our first goal last night redeeming him in my eyes.

Answer 4

I want Chris Osgood to get MVP this year. I really think he deserves it.

All though as a whole The Detroit Red Wings were on fire this year!!! :D

They are and will always be a great team.

Answer 5

Well I will answer but since you are a Tornto fan and I am a Sens fan I wont get picked for best answer :P.

1. Get rid of Emery and Redden

2. Get a hard nosed head coach someone like Keenan

3. Heatly will be superstar yet again if he can avoid injury

4. Have a good core of players but need secondary scoring.

5. Spezza needs to shoot more

6. 2nd and 3rd lines need to be revamped

7. Keep Comrie

That is about all I can think of off the top of my head the Sens will make the playoffs as they always do but need some changes to win the cup.

I hope Toronto has better year this year I love watching Sens Leafs in Playoffs.
