Its easy to say The Ducks are deffinately going to win when they go up 3-1. How many people were huge Duck believers before they beat Detroit? How many people knew they’d beat Dallas before they went up 3-1? well its 3-2, and if Dallas can do it again tomorrow, The Ducks are toast in game 7.

I just find it funny how everyone is praising the Ducks. Turco has the best GAA in modern time, but its Giguere that’s the best ever. And The Ducks, a 7th seed that no one has cared about in years, are suddenly beloved and favored by all.

Lets just see how many people are talking about the Ducks when they miss the playoffs next year.

Read up on Bill Guerin’s leg, the reason it was so serious is that the thigh muscle can calcify if you get a very deep bruise in the right spot. That is why Cam Neely, arguably the greatest power forward ever, retired.

Yes at one time I wanted Lemiux on the Stars, but after his lack luster performance since joining the Stars I do agree he needs to go. As for Muller don’t let him go he is a leader and a grinder on the ice. He has been great since joining the organization. You never trade/release your franchise player unless there is no hope at all for the team that he plays on i.e….Ray Bourque where he got a chance and then completed his quest of the cup with the AVS. Turgeon has been a disappointment since joining the Stars, but however this year he has been more productive than last. Mo (Morrow) is a hard charging gritty grinder that has a lot more potential in him. I see him someday possibly taking over either Hatchers or Mo’s Captain and Assistant and with him being the son-in-law of Guy he will get even better with a great hockey players of all time (one of them) giving lil-mo guidance. With some of our youngsters as Niko and the Manny they will continue getting better with some of the experienced players that we have. As for Jere enough said one of the most underrated forwards in the NHL.

Now with the disappointment of the Stars play so far *not counting yesterday* in this series. If you think this is bad….Try living thru a miserable 1-15 season that the cowboys went thru….try having your basketball team just get thru where the barely got enough wins to prevent them having the worst season in NBA history…try having a baseball team that has only won maybe 2 or 3 division titles in their some 20 + years of existence, but yet only to manage to get maybe 2 or 3 wins in the playoffs. So all in all……..The Stars have been the most consistent team in the DFW metroplex in the past 10 years here. I am not saying that I am sticking with the Stars because of their record, but that is one of them, but however I have been thru the ups and downs of each organization will stick with my teams…Stars, Cowboys, Mavericks, and Rangers….So right now 2 out of the 4 teams isn’t bad here. Just think the Stars could be like the Rangers and spent millions for what? Early tee times in the spring and beginning of the summer? So before you go and think about those tendencies and dismantling the team…the Stars are looking great.

Actually, yesterday was the first time the real Dallas Stars showed up this series, and The Ducks couldnt handle them. IF Dallas keeps it up, and plays like the team we saw yesterday, finish every hit and go hard to the net, than its the Ducks that are screwed.

why trade turco? especially for giguere. yeah hes having a good playoffs, but that doesnt warrent trading your starter for him.

tugnutt, get rid of his ass.

Young, Zubov, Sydor, and Lemieux will NOT fet you havlat. nor would i offer that. IF you are trading zubov, then get a point man. young is too inconsistant and aging and syd wouldn’t fit ottawa. and ottawa is not that brain dead to let him go for aging vets.

arnott, i criticized for the loss, but in reality it was another F game performance by the refs. Arnott is usefull in front of the net.

Hatch you resign immediately. hes the leader of the team, like it or not, he is the team leader. you don’t let him go for nothing with out getting something in return.

why ask muller to retire, let him retire when he wants to.

keep guerin, when healthy hes good for the team.

turgeon, get rid of him, hes been a no-go since joining the stars.

matvichuk you can make a case for trading, the jury is out there.

but all in all, theres no reason to dismantle this team right now. You can’t do it right now. we don’t have any top end players to do so, that i blame on drafting bums and scrubs.

morrow is a 2nd liner, maybe 1st liner at best but a 2nd liner. Kapanen, right now is a 3rd liner, 2nd liner at best. Malholtra is a 3rd/4th line player. Ott is a 3rd to 2nd liner. Erskine is 6th dman.

if you are going to rebuild you better get some top end youngsters. Most teams are not going to give those type of players up. Especially for aging vets we have.

before we jump on the panic button, we’re facing a hot goalie. todays 4-1 win was an example of what happens when your goalie is sub par.
