I am really excited about next year.
Krebs and Tuch played well in the past two games and I did not know Peterka was that fast.
Luukkonen and Subban were solid, it is hard to stop pucks when there are 3 AHL defensemen and Dahlin who is still learning to defend playing in front of you.
I love Murray's presence in front of the net.
Resign Pysyk and if not Manson, Laaksonen could easily be the sixth defenseman.
There are many options to the line up and you chose a good one.
Imagine if they could close out the season with an additional 49 pts (50%) and finish with 75, I think many UFA's may consider Buffalo a good landing spot.
Just dreaming if Letang viewed Pittsburgh as struggling to make the playoffs with Buffalo as an up and coming young team he may consider signing here if the offer was better than other teams.
Pairing him with Dahlin, and Manson with Power would be a nightmare for most teams to play against.
Yes I am excited as well.
