I wouldn't trade Spezza for him. Spezza's cap hit is only $300K more and he's got 5 fewer years left on that contract. Backstrom showed a lot of promise when they were the high flying Capitals. With Ovechkin and Green, and a coach who just let them go out there and fly around with barely a thought to back-checking, life was easy. What happened this year, when Ovechkin decided to take it easy in the regular season? 18 goals and 47 assists in 77 games. Spezza had 21 in 66 games on a much worse team (offensively speaking).

Say what you want about Ovechkin, but he had 5 goals and 5 helpers in 9 games; Semin had 4 goals and 6 points; Backstrom had 2 assists. Hopefully it comes out that he was injured, but it's been said that he was in poor shape.

That TBay-Was series reminded me of the Leafs-Sens series in the old days... Sens had all skill but no will...

Yeah, Washington is definitely a reminder of Sens teams gone past.

TBay also has loads of talent themselves, great goaltending, and are being coached fantastically. Lecavalier looks like a new man.

Assuming Boston gets through I don't see Tampa getting past them. Great story but I just can't see it.

I'll go with the exact opposite of whatever Big Ev says.

Wow, my being a smart Donkey bit me in my Donkey there. Good picks, Ev, hope you had a Pro-Line ticket!

Naw, I don't do Pro Line anyway, online is the way to go TwoThumbsUp!

Was Dung in the first round so I don't bother anymore lol.

Yup. What's worse is that I don't think Vancouver will get by Nashville easily, so realistically I think we see the Sharks in the finals now. In that case, I'm gonna have to get behind Boston reaaal fast.

What a shocker...Big Ev loves a team that any fantasy hockey nerd would gush over Sarcasm

I'm not even in fantasy hockey right now. And Thornton and Heatley were fantasy hockey duds this year, by the way.

The Sharks are a well-oiled machine.

Yep, my pool is Cussed. I have no Sharks in my pool, but 3 Caps, 3 Ducks, 1 Wings, 3 Flyers. I have 5 of my original 15 players left.

and I took a gamble with mike richards, jeff carter, and chris pronger. FML

I have both Sedins... you can guess how well I'm doing.
