  1. I think he starts top nine as I imagine Greener will be a fan of his game (that’s assuming he’s still here). That being said, I think you could plug him in anywhere and he would contribute.
  2. I imagine opposing teams are gonna hate this guy. Not because he’s a dirty player, but because he’s an absolute horse on the defensive side of the puck. He’ll be a nightmare for dmen to deal with on the forecheck. Also doesn’t seem like much of a pushover which is a nice change of pace.
  3. Agreed. This seems like a dumb trade no matter which way you look at it. We don’t need another “Heinin” type in the lineup. Not to mention trading Jake to a team within our normal division. I can already see it backfiring and it hasn’t even happened lol.
  4. I remember watching an interview of his a while back and noticed that his English is actually quite good. Much better than I had expected. Seems to be pretty intent on knowing the language.
  5. Kinda random, but does anyone else notice that Sutter seems to be respected by opposing players? Whenever there are scrums, he seems to be in the middle grabbing guys on other teams and never really has to eat any punches. Noticed it a couple times in the last couple games with Lowry. Could be wrong though lol
  6. I agree with most of what you’re saying, though I still think Baumer has to go. Weird for people to complain about Schmidt’s play when you consider he had no camp and is on a new team, but complaints regarding our defensive play as a team are justifiable.
  7. I don’t think it’s coincidence that we’ve been one of the worst defensive teams while baumer has been here. There’s a reason we look pretty good on paper but look like trash at times on the ice.
  8. Until we can figure out how to allow less than 8 goals a game, I think I’m gonna take a little hiatus. Hard to be a fan sometimes when they put this kinda product out on the ice.
  9. The coils are screwed if McDavid or Draisaitl go down. Their depth is atrocious, especially on the back end.
  10. The media created this narrative at the beginning of the offseason and after Jim made his moves they don’t wanna admit they were wrong.
  11. Also, Hog seems to be a keeper. He’s an absolute hound on the puck. Surprised he slipped to the second round.
  12. I know it’s 1 period, but man Oj looks to be a composed dman. Could see him as a minute muncher down the road.
  13. It’s too bad there’s a small percentage of the fan base that insists on treating our players as you’ve stated. It’s the reason why we are largely considered one of the worst fan bases in hockey, which is unfortunate when you consider how many good eggs there are amongst us.
  14. I had to stop responding to him cause I couldn’t decipher what he’s saying lol
