Haha victoro! Well a bottom 6 goal and a few points for ek. Nice for a change. I’d like to get some youth learning from Sid. Hope dubas is working the phones and we have a good draft.
I like Lizotte but otherwise every bottom 6 and everyone in the pressbox that’s a forward can go away. Hopefully some of these prospects other than kindel work out. I think the cupboards are pretty damn bare still. EK better start killing it if he hopes to get half retained to go to a contender.
2 goals out of the bottom 6 won’t get them far. (Kindel and Lizotte) a bigger surprise is both letang and ek have 0 points so far. I was concerned we would end up in no man’s land again at seasons end drafting 12-15th. Still early but looks like the real pens are showing up and maybe we will draft better than anticipated lol. Eventually brazaue will cool off too I imagine lol
Thanks jboyd. Whatever the expression is about peg in a hole. Diff players, diff styles, diff needs. Hopefully we start to trade/draft as a team to fill out those stylistic needs and start to gel. I don’t understand how gm’s can’t see that. This one Dman will fix our all offense/no defence style or vice versa. Silly geese!
Well kindel seems to be on the same plan. Boxscore bob here looked at his analytics and they’re actually quite impressive with his mediocre RW and loser of a LW. I would love for him to get Mcgroats, Hayes (Avery), Broz, or some other young feisty kids instead of Novak. Tomasino looked good last year with Malkin so maybe he’s ok.
If muse can do anything with this D corps I’d be impressed. Hopefully we can pick up a young dman from a crowded blue line. Anaheim is a defensive master at drafting. Anyone will be happy to leave buffalo, Montreal might be a bit crowded? With Dobson and Hutson not much room for reinbacher although he seems to be injured often. If Pickering can’t force his way on to the team with this LD that’s not a good sign.
Man, these teams that have their whole cores locked up like Montreal are gonna be laughing the way this cap is jumping. Hutson for 8m is gonna be a steal. NJ too. Dallas and Edmonton getting bailed out huge.
I’m guessing there is a year long plan for brunicke and a 9 game long plan for kindel. Give him a taster of 9 games, send him down to juniors where he can be more focused on drills, skills, and the gym. Bulk up, get faster, come back next year with 3 years on his contracts still.
Rusty razor is back tonight. That will really boost the top line as well as the pk. Koivunen back to the A. I thought he would have bumped down to the 3rd line and Novak would get bumped. Guess koivunen was either too disappointing or they are trying to keep certain styles of play on each line.
I don’t think koi will mesh well with Sid as he is a playmaker also. We seem to have a lot of playmakers. Maybe someone needs to get traded for a sniper or grinder who can finisher.
