i dunno about that, Crosby was amazing pretty much all on his own last year, i think he's gonna be much more dangerous with Malkin at his side...because Malkin will help create space/scoring oppertunitites for Crosby by warranting a little extra defensive converage, and vice versa...the pens still won't make the playoffs...but i could see them finishing above the Islanders, and maybe even the Flyers too...
they should tank again on purpose though, so they can get another #1 pick and potentially have the best line in the league in 2008 lol!

ya, i dont know about this, 15 years for a guy who really hasnt been that impressive in my books anyways. thatsa long committment. I dont think signing was a horrible idea, but to a shorter term to see if he can develop into a better goalie/

God bless the Islanders. No matter how bleak things look for the Leafs, I can go to bed at night thankful that I'm not an Isles fan.
I mean my 2 year old son is going to be SEVENTEEN when this deal expires. SEVENTEEN!

The Isles used to have a respectable franchise, its sad how they've fallen. Hiring Mike Milbury as your GM is one sure way to tank a team, I doubt Garth Snow will fare much better. Cant blame them totally I read that the owner is a bit of a nut.

15 years?!?!?
You see what happens when you don't keep right on top of routinely hiring and firing your GMs. You end up signing a goalie for a generation.
I wouldn't give DiPietro 4 million in the first year of his contract, never mind in 2021 (no matter how much that's worth then).
wow.
