    One of these years I won't underestimate the Islanders so much. That trade for Travis Zajac and Kyle Palmieri really paid dividends during that series.

    Anyone else shout at the screen for someone to get a stretcher?

    That injury ended Robitaille's career and he sued the Canucks - and won - over their treatment of his injury.

    He was a fixture on Sabres TV games for years.

    That loss
    And then shout about how to actually put his body on a stretcher? The part with the player holding his skates up was bizarre.

    A YouTube commenter claims the player sued the team for mismanaging his injury.

    Not to mention the trade for Jean Gabriel Pageau the previous season

    I remember Robitaille with the Red Wings, who traded him to the Sabres

    Yup. He plays like a little bulldog. Gets paid very well, but he earns it.

    You know, I'm starting to think Ted Leonsis made a mistake by letting the coach who led his team to a Stanley Cup sign with another team in the division.

    Always liked Trotz
    Good guy. Great coach
    Always thought he looks like he could have been the coach of the Soviet national team in the 60s

    Bingo.

    I’m wondering how the Vrana trade will work out long term. Always liked his breakaway speed - which seemed very important to an aging club.

    Avs become third team to start playoffs 6-0 and lose four in a row
    Bet Max Pacioretty never thought he’d be facing his old team when the playoffs started
