Question

Melrose coaching, Lecavalier, St.Louis, Stamkos

Roloson, Malone & Roberts !!!!!!!!!

that's a badass crew!

Answer 1

lol youre right dude idk what these people are bashin it for im stoked, rolston is a good player so its malone and so is prospal we know. melrose will be interesting as a coach for the lightning and stamkos should be promising. and roberts ok hes not for playing ability hes for leadership ability he'll play an important role. i think theyll be placing 1st in the division. the caps are good and im a big fan of ovey but you see how they play in the playoffs theyre messy

GO LIGHTNING [=

Answer 2

I think so but i thought last year they were going to have an awesome season when the had Prospal, Lecavalier and the Richards and St. Louis But they should make it to the post season with that.

Answer 3

Melrose(Haven't coached since the 90s) Lecalvier and St Louis are solid,Stamkos(not played ONE game yet) Roberts(In his 40s and injury prone), Malone is WAY overpaid and Rolston is testing the market.How aboot we wait till they get some more help on the blue line and a goalie before we declare them badass.

Answer 4

Woohoo for you... back end is still a SIEVE! Enjoy your getting scored upon more than you score this season!

3mil for Vrbata? LMAO... will be eating that in a few months!

Answer 5

Actually, the second line will (most likely) consist of Vrbata-Stamkos-Malone. Prospal will play with Vinny and Marty.

Still, the Lightning's top two lines look very strong on paper. We'll see how it translates to putting points on the board.

Answer 6

how about, "come next june"?

lineup alone doesn't win cups.

that's what they said about the Rangers last year, right about this time.

it's called team chemisty.

Answer 7

Well...Last year they had their Stanley Cup winning coach, Lecavalier, St. Louis, Richards, Prospal, and Boyle and they ended up dead last.  So let's see what they can do this year.  I'm not making any lofty predictions yet.

Roberts isn't THAT good that he should be put on a list with Lecavalier and Rolston, so he's negligible.

Answer 8

Wait to you see what Malone can do.

See if he can adjust to a different style of hockey that he isn't use to.

Answer 9

well when the rangers signed drury and gomez last year i thought the samething, and the rangers sucked. so dont get all excited, when you see it then you will believe it.

BOOM

Answer 10

Actually Rolly decided to decline the offer and go to free agency and on top of that they dont have any defense.

Answer 11

Seen Goalie?

Answer 12

Morgan, i love your comment to the kid that asked when the draft was. im still laughing over here.

Answer 13

Ok. So they now have a decent top two lines and Dan Boyle. The rest of the team is still mediocre, at best. So what difference does it make? Detroit is the bar right now, and Tampa's second best defenseman probably wouldn't make the Wings' lineup. Their fourth line is not even a top AHL line. They will be better than last year, but I'm not even handing them a playoff spot yet, let alone calling them a contender.

Answer 14

Caps are winning the SE so they will be fighting for 7 or 8 seed with Carolina.  They will have nice turnaround, but don't you worry about the chemistry with a complete revamping of the team?  I would.  They look solid on paper, lets wait and see on the ice.  Heard they were in the running for Kolzig...for the sake of the rest of the division I sure hope so!

Answer 15

Word

Answer 16

Yeah Great! Too bad they don't have a goalie to keep the puck out of the net.
