What is the one thing we know about the playoffs? Anything can happen.

True, but you can't seriously expect Florida to make it through 2 rounds. Even one would be a stretch. They would have been much better of getting a bunch of pick and/or prospects to help them rebuild. They have nothing else of trade value, so they basically have to start from the ground up with no outside help. It will be many many years before Florida will be able to contend.

Jackets get Kevin Lalande from CGY for a 4th. Anyone know anything about this guy?

Just a guy who was behind Irving in the system so no need for Calgary to keep him.

Sami Pahlson to Chicago for Wisneiewski to Anaheim

Don't underestimate the importance of that team making the playoffs. Especially in a non-hockey market, you gotta make the playoffs to stay alive. A loser in Canada still sells out a lot of the time. A loser in Florida bleeds money.

Plus, it's extra revenue. Maybe a few playoff games gives them enough money to pay JayBo to stay.

Hope we can avoid the flyers in the first.. even if we were to eliminate them they would give us enough minor injuries to last to next season.

nah, we can beat them. we have more fire power at offense than we were, we are tougher than we were and their defense really sucks, even with McLaren (or should I say, even more with McLaren! Pylon!)

Rebuild? What do you think Florida has been doing for the last 6-7 years? The pieces are finally starting to come together in Florida, they're a team on the upswing.
