Nashville's anthem singer is peacing out after being replaced by country "singers" in the playoffs. Lols.

"They came to me and said the captain's (Mike Fisher) wife asked to sing the anthem that night," Morgan said in May. "It was presented to me as a one night only kind of thing and I agreed to it. Then they continued to bring in these other singers and touted them as 'A-listers,' which kind of hurt me."

Kinda feel for the guy. I always thought it was gimmicky as **** to have those people involved.

Eh **** him and **** everyone else associated with Nashville. They are A-Listers and he's a delusional nobody. Burn in hell "Smashville".

Mike Comrie is not exactly in game shape...

Also: TIL that he was up on a rape charge, but it was dropped.

It was a three-way and some chick regretted it...

Eh. Comrie looked like that when he played.

Pittsburgh with a large minus. But full seasons from Malkin, Sheary, Guentzel, Letang probably make up for more than that.

I think I'm most worried about replacing Cullen. When injuries happen, we aren't in a position to slide people around the lineup. Kunitz was useful that way too. His numbers sucked but I've never seen a player so snakebit for so long. He should have scored 15+

I think Rowney will be ok as a replacement for Cullen...my issue is not having a third line center when we're kind of gambling on a 4th line center...that results in a lot of defensive work for Sidbot...

One more year for Cullen, please.

If h hasn't retired yet, I don't know that he is going to

Bonino played about 17 minutes a game.

Bonino played about 17 minutes a game.

If I had to guess, that's only about 12-13 mins at ES.

Nice guess. 12:37 ES TOI/GP. Places him 10th behind Sid, Geno, Jake, Phil, Sheary, Kunitz, Hagelin, Horny, Rusty, and mere seconds ahead of @Gaucho 's boy Dominik Simon.

I still think the loss of Bonino is a little bigger than most seem to believe.

Agree. Our defense isn't exactly stacked either...

Another example of why I love expansion teams.

PK forwards are replaceable. His 2nd unit PP time is replaceable. I imagine we could snag a detail oriented, responsible, well rounded, good-not-great player one way or another this year. So on paper, I'm not particularly worried about that 12 minute void that needs filled.

But bonino is a warrior and a big game player (seemingly). I'm a little concerned about the intangibles.
