And if Crosby, mr. all world needs to get under Raask's skin in game 1 of this series that should shed some light on how he values his teams chances

I totally agree that the entire team is a bunch of whining C***s (Coaches word). Everyone knows Chara would kill him, but at this point it's probably a bigger win for the Pens to get Chara off the ice then vice-versa. Who would believe it, but the Pens can hold their own with Sid in the box.
I think all players try to rattle the goalie.

I could live without Milbury, Doc is alright, but I feel like he's over-rated a bit. I'm not a gigantic fan of him cause I still relate him to the Devils for being their broadcaster all those years, so I'm skewed.
Who do you like Dani?

Every network save ESPN has called on him to be their #1 Play by Play guy, so it's not just me. He and John Davidson were the best duo EVER, any sport, IMO.

I loved JD. Obviously biased, but JD & Sam Rosen were tremendous together. I grew up listening to those guys. Sam's better days are way behind him now.

Who pray-tell would you rather broadcast the games?
Gary Thorne? The absolute, hands down worst play by play man EVER? The NHL leaving Espn was the best thing that could have happened to the league for that reason alone.

it's a new day and age, and NBC sports needs a new voice to carry them into what hockey is becoming (like it or not). I think Jim Hughson out on Vancouver does a great job, and a few others around the league I like.
anyone but the biggest homer announcers ever.... which is awarded to Staggy and Errey, close 2nd going to Jack Edwards in Boston whom i loathe

Hate Pierre, he's a douche. I actually liked Gary Thorne, despite his Dave Johnson "Down The Stretch they come" during a 5k claimer at the Meadowlands on a Wednesday night intensity/excitment.
Hughson is the best. Actually all the guys who do the HNIC broadcasts are good. They're just on another level. I think it's just a Canadien thing.
Jack Edwards is so bad that it's laughable.

Defense has been bad, but they can't seem to get the big save when needed.
Didn't see the game last night, but from what I saw of the highlights, Fluery didn't do himself any favors if he's trying to regain the starters job. I'm going back to Vokoun if I'm Disco Dan. Fleury's just a lost cause out there.

Wouldn't be happy at all, but it ain't happening anyway. I have a better chance of getting that job.
