Playoff Lineups

[Cheese]

So after the deadline the Flames are pretty happy with our team. Lots of experience, size, speed and youth along with an in your face tooth busting defence.

[flambers]

Coyotes had a couple holes we felt had to be addresed

At the deadline we went after the following

1) face-off specialist, PK center, leadership
2) Another winger, its unknown if Brandon Saad will be available for 1st several playoff games

(lines will change...)
Adam Henrique Mikael Granlund Kyle Palmeiri
Evander Kane Boone Jenner Sebastian Aho
Tomas Tatar Robby Fabbri Alex Killorn
Ryan Spooner Kyle Brodziak Trevor Lewis

Devils shipped off a UFA forward, but also brought in a RFA d-man to help with our inexperienced goaltending tandem.

Alex Radulov was sent to the Islanders for a package of picks and prospects and TJ Brodie was brought in for added depth on the blueline.

Earlier Boyle, Hossa and Beagle were brought in to improve the FO%, leadership, defensive play and scoring.

All of these changes will most likely blow up in our face, but leadership wanted to do everything possible to bring a cup back to NJ.

1 Bo Horvat Rickard Rakell Marian Hossa

Erik Karlsson will be enjoying one of the many privliages that being a Carolina Hurricane has to offer

We choose to not expose our players to too much hockey

That line-up should score goals in BUNCHES but offense has been our problem all year. I suspect a very quick first round exit which is our norm.

[Swayze11]

Avs have been on a pretty massive losing streak since losing our captain, Getzlaf. I expect a 1st round exit.

Filppula - Scheifele - Lindholm
Miller - Johansen - Backes
Kapanen - Vermette - Rust
Lehtera - Eakin - Hansen

Pietrangelo - Carlson
Gardiner - Kulikov
Benn - Quincey

This team has overperformed all season. The sum is greater than the parts, I guess. We are very happy to be in the playoffs.

[Goffie]

Pens were hit by the injury bug at the wrong time. We will likely be without Sedin and Provorov for the entire 1st round and will be missing Ehlers for likely the rest of the season.

Heading into round 1 we still feel that the top 2 lines are deep enough to provide any offense we need. We are hoping that our two headed monster in net can continue to play the way they have been or it could be an early exit for us.

Sharks were waiting to clinch before posting the playoff lineup. Pending injury in the final game, this is what we look like heading into Game 1:

Parise - Crosby - Niederreiter
Silfverberg - Nielsen - Wheeler
Voracek - Z. Smith - Gaborik
Girgensens - N. Shore - Upshall

OEL - McCabe
Byf- Liles
Pyksyk - Folin
