Kelly - G. Campbell J. Caron - D. Paille - M. Fraser Defence D. Seidenberg - Z. Chara D. Hamilton - T. Krug J. Boychuk - A. McQuaid Goalies T. Rask N. Svedberg Biggest plus + Very very good second line and third line, good first line and very very good number one goalie and very promising second goalie, they have couple very good two way forward. Biggest minus - They maybe need better first line rightwinger, or they can use Ericksson in first line, but then they need good second line rightwinger. Smith is biggest question mark in lineups and if he not play good enough they will start use Ericksson in first line, who can be biggest surprise this season Boston roster Offencive Rating 9,5 Defencive Rating 8,5 Goalie Rating 10 Total points 28 Three Best players Tuukka Rask (G) Patrice Bergeron © Zdeno Chara (D) My favorite players - Not so big idols in current Boston Roster but i ilke how Tuukka Rask play.

meow Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Torey Krug and Rilley Smith are not signed yet...The Bruins only have like 3mil cap space (once Savard gets put on injury list). I think they might trade someone...probably a def cuz they have Bartkowski who can play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they might trade someone...probably a def cuz they have Bartkowski who can play Yes thats true, but they are RFA status players so they probably continue in team, so thats why they are in my line ups. Can be possible that Seidenberg will be in the injury list also so then Boston have more money to Krug and Smith contracts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enroth Biggest plus + A lot young potential players in roster and coming in the roster, Ristolainen can be key defender in next season, and can be key defender in future Sabres rosters also. I can be wrong but i think he can be all-start game (young team roster) next season. Biggest minus - Not big starts in offencive, Buffalo number one line is second line most of teams and some cup challengers teams Buffalo first line will be they third line, so they need more offencive power, goalies are big question mark also, i think maybe worst goalie tandem of season.

Hiller Biggest plus + A lot great young forwards, very very hard to predict lines, so give forgive me if those not look any of lines what will be line ups when season start. Rämö can be future vezina winner Biggest minus - Even that there is a lot promising young player Calgary forwards are team weak point. Team can surprise and many forward can raise his level in this season. So in my offencive rating i take little bit account that its very promising line up but still there missing big leader in forwards group and first line is most of teams second or third line. Offencive Rating 5 Defencive Rating 6 Goalie Rating 7,5 Total points 18,5 Three Best players M. Giordano K. Rämö S.

McClement - P. Dwyear C. Terry - Z. Bouchuk - R. Nash Defence J. Falk - A. Sekera T. Gleason - J.M. Liles R. Hainsey - J. Harrison Goalies A. Khudobin C. Ward Biggest plus + Very very good first line, Defencive group is solid. They have more defencive defenders than offencive defenders. Biggest minus - In second line they have very prominsing player Lindholm but irregular Tlusty, so they need someone in Second line, plus offencive lines are very slender. So one injurie can ruin whole season. They need more forwards in line ups. Offencive Rating 7 Defencive Rating 7 Goalie Rating 7 Total points 21 Three Best players E. Staal J. Skinner J. Falk My favorite players I not have idols in this team. So i want pick player who can be interesting to follow next season. A. Khudobin, he had great numbers in his career and get good numbers in AHL also, i think he is already Carolina number one goalie so will be interesting to see how many games coatch will give him and if Khudobin take part of Vezina contend. i added Rattlem to our conversation explanations Explanations = F|A members teams von Rantala = Minnesota Wild, Pepsi and D..X = Toronto Maple Leafs, Zigzag = Ottawa, Sl@yer = Calgary GermanKilla = Colorado Thundercats and Cicione = Chicago, LA Kings Fan = Los Angeles ©, Mathieu and RefL3x:> = Montreal, Yomero, Jaymee = Pittsburgh, Meow and Rattlem = Philadelphia, Meow = San Jose NHL leading team (L) Applicants teams:- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raanta Biggest plus + I think NHL best defencive roster and best defencive pair in NHL, cant remember every NHL teams first line, but i think Chicago first line is atleat top 2, they have great second line and very good fourth line, they fourth line can be some teams second line, third line is not best in NHL (i think Boston have best third line in NHL) but its very good and thats why not lower my rating. Biggest minus - Corey Crawford is not top 5 goalie in league and maybe not even top 10 goalie in league but he is good goalie, he get big advantage that Chicago have best defencive group in NHL and two great two-way forwats Toews and Hossa. Because current salary cup, its very rare that team have 6 forwards who you can say is star status player, and in Chicago is not exception, Saad is good, but not star player like Toews, Hossa, Kane, Richards or Sharp. But i think its not minus because as i say its very rare that any team in current NHL have 6 star player in forwards line, and Chicago have a lot young player who can come that 6 star in forward line. - Big minus is too that team must trade a lot players that they can go under salary cap next year, but its not affect my ratings, because its not this season problem Offencive Rating 10 Defencive Rating 10 Goalie Rating 8 Total points 28 Three Best players J.

Aittokallio Biggest plus + Two good and solid forward lines, N. MacKinnon can make 100 point this season and Duchene is very good center and some of teams he would be first line center. Aittokallio is in my book big plus, he is very very talented goalie and can be future vezina winner. Iginla and Briere bring a lot leadership in line ups. Can be key thing this season. Biggest minus - Defencive lines is biggest minus, they not have any start status defender, Johnson is good defender and Hejda is great defencive defender, but in my view best defender is T. Barrie who is very talent defender, team right winger situation get small minus too, Iginla is great rigth winger, but they need future right winger in roster, Inginla will not play so long anymore and even that Tanguage is very good player he is left winger who they must put in Right now. Varlamov has very good season last year, and he is key to succes this year also, but he has only one good season behind, so this season tell if it was hot/lucky year to him or is he very good and regular goalie. So he is in plus site ofcourse now. Offencive Rating 8,5 Defencive Rating 7 Goalie Rating 9 Total points 24,5 Three Best players N. MacKinnon M. Duchene S. Varlamov My favorite players S. Aittokallio, i like him a lot and see that he can be very good goalie in future, and some team number one goalie for sure D. Briere its not my idol but i like him and his job what he doing out side of ice and he is very good leader.

meow Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Colorado's second goalie will be Reto Berra. I think Briere will not be on the fourth line. He had a bad year last year because the Montreal coach didn't like him and didn't use him. I think he will have a much better season than last year and go back to his usual ~50 pts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a bad year last year because the Montreal coach didn't like him and didn't use him. I think he will have a much better season than last year and go back to his usual ~50 pts. Yep, it was very hard to chooce between Talbot, Mitchell and Briere who will be in third line and who will be fourth line, i watched last season gametime of Talbot and Mitchell what was over 15 min for both so not fourth line players, so thats why i put Briere to fourth line, who spot you think that Briere take in second, third or fourth line? I think we can see Briere in Tanguay spot if he is injured, but i not take account last season injuries, when i do lineups. In Reto Berra he is so over rated goalie, that i really believe that Aittokallio will past him in second spot in the goal, in off season practise or in season. Reto Berra can make saves what look beautiful but he do those because he position is so wrong when someone shoot at goal. Berra last season was not good, he played awful in Word Champion tournament and he has only one good tournament in behind (2013 WC) Thank you for your opinion, as you know i love talk to Hockey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can see Briere in Tanguay spot if he is injured, but i not take account last season injuries, when i do lineups. I'm guessing Briere will start on the 3rd line. I think Talbot should be on the fourth. I don't know if Tanguay is still able to keep up so we might see Briere take his spot. In Reto Berra he is so over rated goalie, that i really believe that Aittokallio will past him in second spot in the goal, in off season practise or in season. Reto Berra can make saves what look beautiful but he do those because he position is so wrong when someone shoot at goal. Berra last season was not good, he played awful in Word Champion tournament and he has only one good tournament in behind (2013 WC) I don't know who Aittokallio is, but if he's good, and maybe a futur goalie, they won't make him wait on the bench as a 2nd goalie. They'll let him play in the AHL. And since Berra has played in the NHL before, I believe he will be 2nd. Thank you for your opinion, as you know i love talk to Hockey No prob . I haven't posted a lot here lately because it's summer and there's not a lot of hockey news so I kind of got bored xD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meow Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I wished Columbus had beaten Pittsburgh last year in playoffs. They were awesome to watch, fighting will all their heart. They keep getting better every year. I hope they can reach 2nd playoffs round this year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
