I think the reason he’s there is that Mikheyev isn’t ready to go. I agree that I’d prefer to see him in the bottom six.

It’s most likely temporary until Mikheyev is back

I hope so cause Tocc played the crap out of him in the top 6 late last year. I just don’t want to hate on him. I think DiGiuseppe would be just fine in the bottom 6 

DiGiuseppe in the top 6 this year is a problem. I get that Tocc likes him. I like his work ethic but we gotta score goals. We aren’t going to out defend teams yet. 2-1 wins I just don’t think are realistic with this roster

I think that's "big shooting", not "big AND shooting". He's a small'ish OFD, with a big shot. Not a big two way D who likes to shoot. 

 

AKA, not really a roster need.

Well I sir would like to see him picked-up

Rather wait and see if a RHD (or winger) with some size, grit and defensive ability pops up on waivers. We need another small, tweener offensive D/winger like a hole in the head.

I guess I never thought of Lassi as that. “The Big Shooting offensive defencemen” scouting reports are old from his junior years

Yes sometimes a change of scenery helps. Waivers are always a shot in the dark but if I’m a betting man that’s the guy I’d wanna take a stab at. Unfortunate play 

I hope we grab Lassi

Amazing. Good guy. Glad he got picked up

The roster will be settled on and the team will excel. Patience.

I’m on SN650 and this sounds like Sat Shah. Agree with his points. Have always liked his balanced and meaningful critique of the team in a homer market. 

One of the few guys I respect 

Well at least it wasn’t televised. I wasn’t doing no streaming bs. 

Just thinking of a couple players I do not miss. Mike Hunt and Nic Petan

If he was more physical consistently, like throwing those nice hits like he did in Calgary, that would be nice. I’m not sure he will be an offensive force. 

No I think once he has confidence he should be a middle 6 forward for us

With the core coming into their prime, they need defensive forwards like Blueger. 
 

The Nucks just have as many on his level in the bottom 6 yet, or the proper kind of bangers/crashers, imo. 
 

I miss Torres 

Yeah the type of players that help you win games. Need a strong bottom six if you’re going to win it all

Hogz looks like he's squeezing his stick too tight.

He’s been like that since he’s got here. Hopefully he can figure that aspect out. If he does I think he’ll be a good player for us

Just now, Sharpshooter said:

He really did and it’s just preseason!

 

A veteran already in Regular Season form. 
 

I hope they make ‘Teddy Bear’ merch for him. 
 

He’s gonna be a fan fave I suspect. 

 

That would be great! Hopefully he works his way into an extension and is a long term solution here 

Almost forgot what a blast Myers is 

Blueger has been great too. All the new pick-up I’ve liked tonight

McWard does not look out of place at all against a 3/4 Oilers roster. 

Might be in the top 8 by the end of the preseason 

Glad we picked up DeSmith too. Nice having an NHL goalie along with Demko of course 

Soucy looks good. It’s weird seeing so many great defensive plays
