treble 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 The '75 (I think, it was around then, anyway) Islanders did it against Pittsburgh and the '42 Leafs did it in the Finals against Detroit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 FYI: Esche is supposed to be starting tonight. The Flyers settled on "the flu" as the explanation. Supposedly, they gave him some drugs, and he felt better. Makes sense, since Rechhi had the flu earlier in the series. The Flyers are bringing Niitymaaki (sp???) as a 3rd goalie with them just in case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 I think that whoever gets out of the SJ/Ave match up will lose to Calgary. SJ will be deflated from almost letting a series slip from them, and the Aves will be too freaking tired from that series to keep up with the Flames. So I say the Flames are already in the Finals. Who they face from the East is the question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hockeytown9321 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 Even if Detroit wanted to trade Cujo, they couldn't. Cujo was the sole reason Detroit was in the last 3 games of the series. Detroit scored a total of 3 goals in their 4 losses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 A team like Vancouver would kill for Cujo, especially after his performance in the playoffs this year. I don't think Detroit is dumb enough to trade the guy, even if Hasek decides he wants to play again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hockeytown9321 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 Vancouver is not going to pay CuJo $8M. If Hasek plays, it most definitely will not be for Detroit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 When Detroit won the cup in 97, 98, they had a solid defence, and didn't really have to rely on goaltending to carry them to the cup. Detroit had no defence through the entire playoffs, and if the defence played very well, CuJo would not be starting at all through the playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2004 Steve Yzerman should just play it safe and call it quits. It's probably not worth the risk at this point. Shame, because Yzerman's great but he's one of those "forgotten players," overshadowed by his teammates. If Legace doesn't start, let him start in another town. It's a travesty what that guy goes through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit scored a total of 3 goals in their 4 losses. What they should really do, is talk to CuJo and ask him what he wants them to do. If he wants to be traded, ask teams around and look for young prospects or if he wants him to stay and retire as a red wing when his contract is up, let him stay, maybe he'll take a paycut though because 8 million is a lot even if he deserves it.

Not as much as Ottawa are hurting from The Leafs putting them out what 4 times in the last 5 years or 5 times in the last 6. Anyways it seems as if my Leafs are going to have to get out the old golf clubs for another summer come 13 minutes from now. Guess I'll be rooting for The Flame here on out.

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2004 CuJo deserves to stay on this team, With all hes been through....the only way I see the wings trading Cujo is if another team wants him and they offer YOUNG players....well that would be the smart decision though they might still have to eat part of his contract maybe if they traded him. Enter Ottawa...I could see them parting with a Havlat to pick up CuJo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
