Silovs is .898 We easily dispatch McPimple with Demko. These are facts. Bow to the Empties Does Demko score goals too? LMAO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bow to the Empties demko likely steals us a game or two for sure our team was built to win with only 1-2 goals against letting in 3-4 usually means we lose 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting though yea demelo and kaliyev are both a bit soft, but both have size, i think more can be got out of both of them. thats where tocc can work his magic. kaliyev is so intriguing to me. hes more of a tofolli type, rather than a rush player. were not a transition team under tocchet, he could thrive here if hes on a line with some skilled puck carriers who can find him in good spots to take shots. lagesson is big, gritty, and tough 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 3 minutes ago, HarbularyBattery said: why did his ACL injury turn his hands to concrete though thats what i cant figure out He just had the second best offensive season in his career, with 31 points, 1 behind his high with Toronto, though he played more games this year. Anyone that thought they were getting a 30 goal guy was flat out wrong. good years for this guy are 20 up to the rare 25 goal year. He is, when healthy, a strong defensive presence, a very good penalty killer, and very fast. His salary is a bit high, but that is not his responsibility.-- weren't he and Kuze some kind of package deal? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Long Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 59 minutes ago, ArtyParty said: In theory its an interesting idea. But your post made me think of one major risk here. If Brind Amour can't get him going, is there much more Tocchet will achieve? Really all you're betting on is a change of scenery....I'm not pro or against but I'd be concerned about that. Different systems, different message maybe? But you are right, it's a risk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Long Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 (edited) 2 hours ago, Gurn said: The injury is known to take a full year to fully recover from. Why buy the guy out, so he can go to another team and play well there; when you can just keep him and have him play well for us? If you think he can recover, you don't. But if the medical staff think he can't, then maybe it makes sense. Edited May 25 by Bob Long 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 1 hour ago, Alflives said: Rumour the 650 hosts were just discussing was Hronek + Mikeyev for Necas + Kotkaniemi. Not too sure I’d want us to do that as we have Raty ready to come up. And Hronrknis pretty much irreplaceable. It would be tough to give up a top four D without having one ready to fill the spot. That does give us a really strong and deep forward group, but I think our improved D was the secret sauce to the improvement this year. It leaves us a good amount of cap space but you need to attract the UFA D who will be in demand. Petterson-Lindholm-Necas Suter-Miller-Boeser XX-Kotkaniemi-Garland Podkolzin-Aman-Karlsson PDG If we did this, we would pretty much have to move Silovs as a trade chip to get a D on the trade market. Plus get a UFA. Hughes-Tanev Zadorov-Zub Soucy-Myers Julssen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said Mik is a middle 6 guy he's not a top 6 player and shouldn't have the expectations as such.

Hairy Kneel Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 22 minutes ago, ArtyParty said: Your complaining about our players who got one game away from the conference finals, implies you think they failed. They over achieved given their roster and should be commended for it. I would never complain about our team play. Our team structure or what Tocchet helped create here. But I do believe we had passenger's, Tocchet alluded to as much two games ago. There were obvious fixes l, for me, that involved being more physical. Saying they 'over achieved' imo is selling them short. They lost. 7th game of a tough series isn't over achieving. But they did lose.
