Crunch Time

Actually they didn't "choke" down the stretch...stop blaming Columbus...the team "choked" in the beginning of the season when Columbus didn't take anyone and everyone here was raving about what a good team they had..everyone knows in the AHL the beginning of the season is more important for wins as you don't really ...

Actually the Crunch I believe sign these guys to PTO's..the kid from Guelp can't have PTO from an NHL team because he is draft eligible this year..just wanted to clarify..

Guys relax...remember his english isn't all that great and his understanding isn't much better I'm sure...he is a KID in a foreign country..he is learning..he probably meant to say that a chair in the NHL is better than being in the AHL..he just doesn't know how to word it..imagine one of your kids going to Russia at 18 and trying ...

Whoa, I agree with most of the stuff, and Filatov needs to work on his defense but where do you get off saying he threatened to leave? Proof? Did you hear it? Alot of teams do what Cbs did...its not rare..its stinks, but not uncommon (rememeber hartigan? I gane in playoffs for Anaheim and stayed the entire time)...but to bash an 18 yr old KID is ...

Hate to play devils advocate but they never said he wasn't playing for sure...but I do think they should have let them help Syracuse before calling him up..but then theyd probably call him up during the playoffs so Syracuse loses him anyways...remember Hartigan on Anaheim a couple years ago?They called him up and he sat the whole playoffs sans ...

I'm sorry all you "Tito" fans out there..I know he is homegrown but Harvey should be on the 3rd line at least and Sestito down on line 4...right now, and, for a while, Harvey is and has been the better player...

Mirasty should have sat...Harvey should have played..he is a better player and with no heavyweight on Toronto Jon was taking up space..and if you watched him his shoulder still obviously isn't right

Love to see players like Lalande step up and shut some hockey know it all fans up..you know the ones who don't see a player actually play and then Columbus gets him in a trade at the deadline.."oh thats all we got? An ECHL type goalie? blah blah blah"..now he's a hero and it only took one game!

There is no reason Harvey shouldn't be on that...not only can he fight, but if Yates would start playing more than just a 4th liner the kid can PLAY..he can skate, pass and shoot..go into corners..backchecks...you don't go into a 7 game series (if they make the playoffs) without some kind of toughness...this kid deserves to be on that ...

To Ottawa for Antoine Vermette...the era is over......but C-Bus gives up a 2nd rounder also...wow did his stock fall!!!
