  1. Panthers win again. This time they double up Jersey. Makes the Islanders’ game even bigger. Bo needs to get some points this game.
  2. Yup. Hronek is the perfect guy to anchor our second pairing. He’s a core player for sure. Chychrun just looks lost. Maybe he thinks the game a bit slow?
  3. Didn’t Yakupov play here as a junior? Michkov is a guy we must draftbif he’s there for us. Would be a horrible mistake to not select him.
  4. Chychscrub having another tough night. So glad we availed that guy. He’s just not smart.
  5. How is his refusal to wear the gay pride jersey treating others with “respect and kindness”? His refusal is a direct contradiction to his statement.
  6. Do you have a link to our management saying as you suggest? If not, then it’s just your opinion on our prospects laying over seas instead of here. I think we have a lot of good young guys. This management has found a lot of good prospects and some came here while others stayed in their home leagues to develop. Not just one path to the NHL.
  7. I think Woo either makes the big club or is plucked off waivers being sent down.
  8. Bure was available late because we were the only team who knew he was eligible that year. Hopefully the teams selecting ahead of us are scared away from Michkov because of the Russian factor. Then we get the second best player in the draft.
  9. Big game for the Islanders tonight. Bo needs to step up his game.
  10. Every NHL player who refuses to wear the gay pride jerseys should be find. It’s not politics; it’s doing what’s right.
  11. That’s not happening. If he’s there at our pick we run up to the stage and take him.
  12. He’s an idiot. Wear the shirt and support inclusion of gay people. His actions make no sense when compared to his statement. The NHL should have fined provorov. Nip this ignorance in the bud.
  13. Drafting Michkov isn’t “taking a chance”. He is a guy, if we’re so lucky to select him we will be seeing a phenom in our lineup when he’s here in three years. He’s a brilliant player.
  14. Yup. Wasn’t there that Mary Magdalene character in the Bible and her story of acceptance by Jesus, when others wouldn’t? It’s crazy how some Christians refuse to accept everyone. Their churches suck pucks.
  15. Good statement. Don’t see why he refuses to wear the gay pride shirt though. Doesn't match up to his statement and makes no sense.
  16. That was old time face punching. The smacks of the fists connecting on the face would have been LOUD! Just don’t get how the other guys can just stand and watch and not want to partner up and bop too. Damn that’s hockey!
  17. We had the perfect partner for Hughes in Tanev. We could have just kept him at 4x4. Nope. We went to Schmidt at 6 and then OEL at 7.2. Imagine going to Jones at 9.5. More than twice what Tanev would have signed for to stay. Benning very much struggled with identifying pro talent. I’m confident the new guys would never go for Jones. They are way too smart. They will either play OEL with Hronek and hope the latter can carry OEL. Or they will buyout OEL because they believe he just can’t contribute anymore. And what he provides can be replaced by Brisebois for 750 k
  18. Without a doubt that was the worst trade in our club’s history. And our owner bares some responsibility too. He should keep his snout out of hockey ops.
  19. Yuk! Jones us a complimentary player. He would be in a supporting role. Just buyout OEL and trade for Tanev back.
  20. Maybe management is thinking with a good off season of training OEL can play a role as Hronek’s partner on our second pairing? That’s a big if though.
  21. I think you hit the nail on the head with how our forwards will look to start next season. What about our D? Can’t still have Myers and OEL, can we?
  22. Nope. You’re the King, but wrong on this one. We need to buyout OEL. But owner won’t cut that cheque. So we will see OEL in the press box and a guy like Brisebois playing in his place. Total cap allocation to a bottom six D man will be 8 mil.
