Alf is very disappointed in the CDC version of Captain Toews. Very sad.
Demko will sign here, and he will be our starter in two seasons, after we trade Markstrom and extend Miller.
Don't go to the blue paint, it's not comfortable there.
Much like Toews avoided Chara in the Finals, because it was too uncomfortable. The Hawks don't win any Cups if Toews didn't go to the dirty areas. Coming from a poster who clearly respects Jonathan Toews' game, I find it shocking you would be a feared of a little discomfort on a message board.
I agree that he will sign. We are obviously building a new young team, and fresh core of young players. Even management has finally started to state so publicly (too late in my opinion). There is no reason for him to not want to be part of the Canucks future. And Vancouver is a really nice city, even though we did torch it twice.
I his parents are helping him pack? What? Is he five? Really? "Mom can you come pack my socks?" Seriously? They are proud parents, who love their son, and want to spend time with him before he heads overseas. IMHAO, of course.
Alf takes exception to your "rediculous crap" comment. Alf has spewed A LOT more rediculous crap than in this thread. Is this a challenge to the Regent of Rediculous?
This is a VERY interesting point. I wonder if these college guys will fall in the draft because of the RISK that goes with them?
I do believe DEMKO signs with us, and plays in UTICA for their playoffs.
Very accurate indeed. I was curious why JB didn't get a second round pick back instead of another fringe NHL guy - like Granlund? The pick at least has a chance (even though a slim one) of becoming a future core player, where Granlund doesn't.
Absolutely. I'm glad we agree. Lou became a much better (more consistent) goalie with us. He goes back to FLA and leads them to a division title. Schnieder does nothing but lose in Jersey.
