Marchand in his new jersey

Easier to clean up

I don't think they even make it to the western finals let alone the finals .

If any one of our guys scores like that it is a perfect shot and the goalie had little chance.. it was a bullet of a shot and i will give that one to the shooter.. there isn't many NHL goalies with "strong" glove hands anymore, they are taught to keep their gloves up, not like the old days when...

He helped the Avs win a cup, has been over a point per game player..

too soft for my liking.. he has talent but not my kind of player..
