ParticipantLou, nothing at all with a wait and see approach for the organIzation. Nothing at all but I hate to think of any opportunities that aren’t explored and to me I just don’t see a McTavish at 22 yrs of age getting a rough ride from management that might lead to him being moved. ….. Not sure why but I’ve always thought, from his permanent hiring, KD looks every single day at a chance to move for a guy like McTavish.
I feel much better with Frondell’s size in the system but doesn’t mean I’m satisfied that the system has the size at center I’d love to have, or true centerman for that matter.
Plus asset allocation will rear its head eventually. If Artie, Rinzel reach their ceiling will it take giving each 20 mil per in their UFA yrs? Not to mention Vlasic will be looking at 10 mil plus per yr. I guess it can be argued two first rate centers will cost to but I’d like to think the organIzation has an eye to future payroll problems and are as proactive on that account as possible.
Let’s see about this Bedard improved giddyup tonight first. See what Blashil is thinking by usage of the roster tonight.

ParticipantBeen asking Dots where you were the last couple weeks, Chunk. You two chop it up pretty good and keep a message board from growing cobwebs. …. Glad you found your way over.
Cuz as far as I’m concerned, a Hawk’s fan has a solid spot here. Frenchy has shared some of his bio and going from memory know he’s a Canadian boy, lives in Montreal, is a Hawks fan, scouted the USHL and cut up film for an ECHL squad. My kinda blogger especially one rooted in jrs hockey and earned a paycheck scouting that level. …. It was BoilerMaker who found this place and posted the link and was a stroke of good luck for me.
The software has some bugs so you’ll get posts lost in space. I’ve found using the quote feature can lose my post so I’m careful as I can be as I’ve lost a few, which gets old man. … Trial and error is advised.

ParticipantHey everybody! Nice to see y’all are still getting along.
I know I’m jumping in a bit late here, but maybe we let some of the 5th graders KD’s drafted recently show what they can do before launching them for an 8th grader.
We agree with everything everyone says here. Get with the program.(aka rpete)

ParticipantHey Rico. Thanks. I figured, I would drop a stink bomb in the middle of the whole discussion and then just leave, but there’s no fun if you don’t hang around and throw a couple low punches.

ParticipantI also like size up the middle,
however not all centers in every single line need to have size. Yes, the first wave of centers are not huge, however the second wave of Frondell, Boisvert, Spellacy and Greene all bring size, and my understanding is that Moore is up 195 lbs as well. As the 25/26 season starts, there’s no need to overpay for a McTavish at this time, first KD needs the dust to settle and see what these guys all bring. There are a lot of darts in both offense and defense, eventually they’ll need to move a couple or three of them(no room at the inn)to upgrade a need, that time is not now because we don’t know what the need will be. One thing is for certain, it will probably not be a RD. JMHO
i bet you do.
not there is anything wrong with that. ????
