Triplethreatmark, how much pressure is on Terry Murray to succeed this season?
I'm not suggesting anything short of hoisting the Cup gets him fired, but they have to take the next step at some point (higher seed, home ice, win a playoff series)l

I'm not suggesting anything short of hoisting the Cup gets him fired, but they have to take the next step at some point (higher seed, home ice, win a playoff series)l Pretty much this. In no way do I expect the Cup to just be handed to us, but if Terry doesn't get us past the first round, Kings fans every where would want his head on a pike traveling up and down Figueroa street (not literally of course). The snag behind that though is that Dean Lombardi, our GM would probably hire a guy with the same defense first, dump/chase and see what happens mentality as Terry Murray, so not much would change.

On the subject of the Hurricanes: I know a lot of Devils fans have taken to calling them the "Carolina Diving Squad". They're beyond obnoxious to play when it comes to faking to draw penalties, then shrinking back when it's time to pay the piper.
Really getting annoyed with this opening month schedule; Devils haven't played since Saturday, and they still don't play until Friday night. Ridiculous. Then you look at the schedule and see that January, I think, has weird spaced out weeks like this.

Leafs demote Nazem Kadri. I don't think Kad will be down there for long. We'll see, though. Brayden Schenn was also brought up to the Flyers, yay for him. I support Bray, I feel obligated to be a fan of the other Schenn since I'm fan of one Zac Rinaldo and Harry Zolnierczyk were sent to the Phantoms.

They're beyond obnoxious to play when it comes to faking to draw penalties, then shrinking back when it's time to pay the piper. You've always had a hard-on of hate for Carolina and you know it, abusing your mod powers when we beat NJ in the playoffs on those two late goals. The Canes fans on these boards don't post in the NHL thread a lot anymore because of the whining and bitching from Boston and NJ fans, especially during the 09 playoffs. Horton and Lucic were instigating all throughout the 3rd period trying to be tough guys, Chara was acting all "I'm tall and can be a bully" and still lost the game on home ice. Good work.

Cant be that any of the "bitching"was valid? Yeah......*that's* what happened. You guys played a perfectly clean game, and those mean 'ol Bruins tried picking fights without provocation. No homerism from you, no sir. ANYWAY...... Im going tonight, and Im pretty confident that the Bruins come out flying, and hand the Leafs their first regulation loss

It feels weird agreeing with theslickness on something sports-related, but I do in this case. At least I can respect the Rangers even if they're our team's cross-river rivals.
I hate Carolina for a lot of the reasons why a lot of soccer fans hate Brazil come World Cup time.
