Get Backstrom a Cup already!!! Let's go Caps! I had the Ducks meeting Washington in my bracket, so I got it half right.

DSP with the dagger!!!! Wooooo-hoooo!

I'd rather see the roster spot go to a good goalie or a forward who actually contributes to the team, Jultz loop hole notwithstanding. Ritchie is a 10th overall pick overshadowed by smaller guys like Kase who are more in line with the direction the game is going. Why continue with an unsuccessful set up when there are other factors that can be included to either push the team in the right direction or slow the pending decline. Ducks won't be bottom feeders because unlike the cities you've mentioned, quality of life comes easy here-and San Diego. But mid-table team, I see it.

Ritchie's rights sent away for picks or a good NCAA prospect in someone's system.

Johansen Jinx!

I'm gleeful. I'm happy. Nashville, they gone!

Hannah Spraker with some solid breakdowns. Don't agree with everything, but agree with enough to pass it along. (Especially the collective WTF the team did after they made the playoffs-utter shiite-still damned piddleed about having to watch a handshake line.) https://www.thefourthperiod.com/spraker/ducks-have-tough-summer-ahead/

Seriously Winnipeg? You had Teemu in the house last night and could not get rid of the Perds? For shame, SHAME!!!! Caps dealt with the Pens without Backstrom, but if they don't get him back, it'll be a huge challenge to stretch Tampa past five games. I want to see Nick and Co win simply for all the heads that will explode across hockeydom, but they do need him in the lineup.

Excellent bench boss, his Borussia Dortmund teams always gave FCB a run for their money. I won't say the EPL is the biggest stage in world football, but it does seem like they market themselves moreso as such. But to do well in the Bundesliga and the EPL, plus not be a complete douchenozzle, I like the dude.

This Man United fan is pulling for the Reds over RM.

Oh horseDehydrated Donkey Dung. Really? We're stuck with RC, and Dallas goes and gets one of the best NCAA coaches (more importantly, player developers) to sign on? https://twitter.com/MikeChambers/status/991768472509018112

BM comments? Doesn't that kind of thing get moderated around here?

Want all the likes for this one. The refs in this league suck. They're inconsistent, biased, and I've seen better calls at pee-wee games. Running your yap at them does exactly squat. Arguing a call that was marginal, I get it. But with his conduct and Vermette whacking Mr. Self-Important Linesman, if they continue to engage the zebras, it'll compound the reputation the Ducks have with the officials. Oh yeah, and it distracts from their job, winning games.
