  1. Wow, that’s impressive. I never heard of this guy!
  2. With guys like Gadjovic, Gaudette, Lockwood, and Lind coming soon, and Jake already here, we might actually have (finally) a really hard team to play against. Keep Guddy, and get Tryamkin back and watch out!
  3. I have a Kesler Jersey like that, but have no clue who this player is, so I’ll guess: That Dman who got suspended in the Cup final?
  4. Trade Baer, and keep Granny? Trade them both, and make room for Pettersson and Dahlen?
  5. I doubt we can move Errikson. Granny is Loui, at 1/3 the cost, and almost 10 years younger.
  6. Kind of suits the 50+, not so fun exam. Many exclamation marks!!!!!!
  7. The Canucks desperately need to sell hope, or the won’t be selling tickets.
  8. Absolutely! We have a bunch of these young guys coming up over the next 2-3 years.
  9. At least two forwards got to go at the coming TDL, or sooner. We need room for Pettersson and Gaudette. Vanek and Burmistrov?
  10. They both might do a Boeser, and make our team this spring? I think with the season ticket drive in full swing at the end of this season (likely a dismal bottom five finish too) management will want to sell “hope” for a better next season. That’s why I think those two players are on our team for the final 10 games or so. Plus, they are better than a lot of the vets we currently have.
  11. Pettersson is an NHL player already. Why would we put him in the AHL?
  12. Gagner and Vanek playing ahead of Jake, Goldobin, and other young guys does look like a stealthy way to tank.
  13. That’s a nasty quake. God, those people have enough troubles without adding an earthquake.
  14. I heard Travis Green say in his presser before the Sharks drubbing, that Jake is sometimes almost too fast for a power forward. What the heck? Like you say, maybe it’s just time for everyone (including our coach and management) to admit the Twins are too slow?
  15. Kidding about what: Gradin’s jersey up instead of Naslund’s, or the Twin’s slide? I think if Pettersson and Dahlen are here, the Twins might not be playing at all.
  16. I hope you’re right, and our focus is 100% on rebuilding.
  17. I see something in both Dahlen and Pettersson that I really like. They both attack the net, even after shooting.
  18. If he played a heavy, mean, enforcer role, then yes. Playing soft on the perimeter - no. I love Gaunce. He’s a really nice guy. However, I think for him to have a lasting NHL career he will need to do what Tanner Glass did, and change his game to that fourth line energy, greasy, enforcer, PK guy.
  19. Love Tanev, and believe he’s a top defensive player. (Should trade him though, when he’s in a healthy stretch)
  20. I was certainly around when the Caps won. I have a White Caps soccer ball signed by the team. We had some exceptional talent on that ‘79 team, who cost money. (I could list them all, but don’t want to dig out the ball) It seems in this modern soccer, unless a team gets very lucky, you need a superstar or two to score the key goals, or to create space and chances for others.
  21. So unless we get lucky, like that team in England did a couple years ago, it's no championship for us?
  22. I went to one concert: Billy Joel. Not much into seeing the older crowd, since their days are done. Would like to see newer (in their primes) singers: Ed Sheeran, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Twenty-one Pilots, Hedley - those younger people. Likely won't though.
  23. Thanks! I wondered what EXACTLY that Avatar was. It's cute and fury, so I thought it was like a newer version of me!
  24. Wow! That's a great pass. And Bo, with his speed, certainly puts fear into the D too. The D left a BIG GAP between their forechecking forwards and themselves, because of Bo, which left that HUGE space for Bo to accept the pass from Pouliot in. I think if Bo is not the first guy through the neutral zone, driving the D back, then that space would not be there. That's Green's new system and coaching properly too.
