Throughout professional sports you see teams give less effort when the games don't mean much, I'm simply observing that doing so is human nature.... The risk/reward of losing key players to more physical play isn't great.

We are 0-1 in the playoffs. Simple as that.

Yea. We have 9 games against the Preds now. And we've lost the series opener.

Two Caveats. No Slavin, both goals were on his spot in the line and Necas rung the post if that is an a few CM closer in that game was 1-1 easy.

Vegas has 2-0 on the Blues in the 1st. I'm not surprised if Canes lose the President's Cup before it's over.

They gotta go against Colorado though. Colorado is still fighting for their division one seed. That’s our only boon even if we win Monday. But in a 3 way tie with 82 points Colorado wins.

Not the cup I care about personally.

Long picture dude, the cup means nothing. In a potential travel situation so you really want to potentially have to play 4 games in Colorado or Vegas? You think Dallas travel is too much... 

If we win out it’s a high probability we see one of them in the finale.

Realistically? I don't think Dallas was too much I was speaking of conserving energy for the long haul, If we pick up a point only Vegas will have Home ice.... luckily only one of them will make round 3.... no guarentee they make the finals, we are locked in on home ice for the first three rounds.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
