We haven’t had a trio Rinzel, Nazur and Donato in 5 years who could pull off last nights winning goal. They’re technically our 2nd line but with the way Blashill’s mixing guys more like 1A and 1B.

For the 999th try to Rico:
Yes I’m optimistic. I also forgot Frondell but I’m very skeptical of his level of competition. Lots of space they look like they’re “lollygagging.” Many of his goals wouldn’t convert at the NHL/AHL level. But he is the best of where he’s at.

Let’s see: Bedard headed towards a $12M aav “bridge deal,” Nazar and Rinzel are the real deal nice drafting KD, the young D as a whole is quicker and improved, whose place will Moore take in January? Reichel what little bit he played looked engaged, Lardis and Nestrisil are knocking on the door West and Boisvert to follow. I’m feeling like our long lost eternal optimist “Simple Jack.”

Hard to believe that they still have seven 1st round picks not yet playing with the big club, and two more this coming draft. There will not be room for all of them, however not at that bridge yet.

KK
Allan
Boisvert
Vanacker
Frondell
Nestrasil
West

Whatever we do it can’t be worse than trading Phil Esposito and Ken Hodge and letting Bobby Hull walk because Wirtz backed out of a $250k promise.

Last night the goaltending was so bad for St. Louis, and not much better for us; I’m wondering how good we really were?

On another note, has anyone heard from “Hawk-in-the-D”? I miss him.

They recalled Moore he’s wearing #73.

Don’t worry Coach, Blackhawks fans know how to do things in spite of technology 🙂

Fridays have been soft the last couple of years for NHL games. Don’t know why, just is.

Arty is only 19, and his play style is still that of a kid. He does generally catch on quickly so by game 10-20, he could be a completely different player. He has already looked better than he did at the end of last season. He could become a beast in short order. Most defensemen will get to where he is now in the age 24-26, so he is still way ahead of them.

Rinzel has been awesome. Sure, a couple of minor mistakes, but wow!

First time I saw Rinzel I saw 2014 Drew Doughty.

3rd Boston D pairing couldn’t make our team.

Did EDM get sent down or is he in the press box with Crev and Reichel?

[Dan Maloneys left hook]

Anybody else have this problem: you make a post, it doesn’t take and makes you forget what you posted? Just wondering.

[Dan Maloneys left hook]

Where’s Brandon Saad when you need him.

[Dan Maloneys left hook]

Lukas Reichel = Cedric Benson

I had hoped that Greene and or Moore would make the team. With the Greene emergency call up, we know who is first up. I’ve not seen anything on Slaggert or heard anything the entire preseason. Did he make the team? Chunk, I think you’re expecting a lot expecting an improvement in the standings. KD is saying “I added vets and nothing happened. Now I’m going to try it this way.” Young defense, young goalies and a slow but steady matriculation of young talent. Time will tell but I expect to see a half dozen players from Rockford come up for a period this season. In the coming years, our high draft choices in college and Juniors to follow. It will also keep Danny’s cash budget down.

I’m thinking right now we carry Reichel as a 14th Forward but he never dresses until he plays like a big boy in practice. It would mean somebody like EDM for sure gets sent down but this is a move we can make for now. The alternative would be taking somebody else’s change of scenery or even better, decent player whose contract needs to be launched in trade. Bottom line, I’m not letting him go for a 5th round choice. He can rot before I do that.

Umm, not getting posts through again… Regarding MH’s link of Frondell: I see a lot of space looks like they’re lollygagging! Definitely not NHL or AHL hockey.

Had to comment to see updated posts. If Reichel is traded, I hope it’s in a packaged deal. I’d hate to see him go for a 5th round pick.

I’d rather waive him than trade him for a 5th.
