  1. Not at all. I save that distinction for clowns like JD Burke and Grady's Ass...I mean Grady Sas. Rick started out so well though. He was solid and non-speculative. He gave the facts and not much else. It was refreshing. Not sure why he's moved to more of a speculative approach recently.
  2. Hahahahaha. Supposedly I'm being too harsh on the guy. Poor Dhaliwal....
  3. Edler can't just give his minutes away to another player. What do think they do? Are they sitting in the locker room before the game trading minutes with each other before the game like cards? Green decides how much everyone plays, so if Benning restructures the defense by signing and/or trading for some legitimate top 4 defensemen, then Green will have that much more to work with and the ability to spread out the minutes.
  4. Hahahhahaha. I highly doubt that Gardiner is going to be signed here, Stelar. If that did happen as you state, then....yeah that would be two....nay....three steps back. However, with Edler re-signed, Hughes, and most likely Juolevi taking spots on the defense this season, the need for another puckmoving defenseman will exist, but not one as defensively porous as Gardiner. Factor in Benning's comments about St. Louis' size on the blueline, and Gardiner is less and less likely a possibility, in my humble opinion.
  5. Exactly. Edler is the largest defenseman under contract right now, and while he can be an absolute beast, he can't be the lone physical presence on the back end, once again. Dhaliwal needs to stop flapping his gums.
  6. Well......Andy.....I'm thinking that might not be happening.
  7. Edler has been an influential player to Elias Pettersson, Troy Stecher, Chris Tanev, Ben Hutton, Erik Gudbranson. He’s a cornerstone.
  8. Tanev and Hutton most likely won’t be back. I’m thinking that players like Chiarot and Nemeth might be signed to add some size and pushback to the defense. That is, is Benning doesn’t trade for a player like Zadorov instead.
  9. I’m thinking some guys might be watching because they like hockey......silly me.
  10. This year’s awards have been pretty awesome.
  11. That was a 24-48 period when no one shared anything with the clowns on 1040 or 650.
  12. Yeah...……...Rick's lost a lot of credibility lately.
