What do you think about my roster?

[RonTextall]

I think DET and CHI are out in the first round, so I don't love it. I think you needed to draft another Pens forward after getting Malkin.

Split season series; young, up-and-coming team; great goaltender; added Radulov; got up 2-0 on Detroit and lost the series a few years ago i.e. paid their dues.

Here's some more:

Recent additions in Gaustad, Kostitsyn, Radulov and Gill. Not only did they split the series 3-3, Nashville has won the last 2 (after the additions). Detroit hasn't been playing all that great lately, and Detroit's away record is really bad.

i like your picks, especially Filppula. I've been a fan of his for awhile now, and think he'll do well

And they did a good job.

Good luck the rest of the way!
