I was one of the people that didn't want Kovalchuk on the Kings but truth be said he was pretty banged for the finals.

You're right, I just wanted to take a cheap shot

Little dude's playing in a role that he couldn't play in while he was here.

End of conversation.

Good for him. Maybe Kovalchuk and Henrique will have sushi with him.

As Montreal has shown in the recent past, getting into the playoffs with talented little center-men isn't really a problem.

It's having them be effective at that point that is.

Personally, no matter how well Lokti does, I will never "regret giving up on him" like I sometimes do Purcell or Moulson. But for all of the butt-hurtedness around here about those two (and sometimes Boyle too, lolz)... exactly what have the Islanders and Lightning accomplished?

I remember Dean saying something about it being easier to flourish on bad teams...

Remember that thread from the playoffs of 2011 when the 'Ning were in the Conference Finals asking what the Lightning were doing right and the Kings were doing wrong?

Good times. Whoever started that thread is dumb.

Didn't one of us say we were gonna save that thread?

I just figured Dwayne Roloson would do it...
