  1. Ok, I like your posts, but you have clearly changed the parameters of your argument now. Why would SJ trade 'down' to get an old Hansen while getting rid of Goldobin, who looked like he was on the cusp of being an NHL regular? Keep in mind Goldobin was a proven AHLer. The end result was that the trade didn't work out for either of the texams. Vancouver arguably had the best return for Hansen. If SJ had won the cup that year, Vancouver would even get an extra ppick The Gaudette and Highmore trade is no more riskier than the Goldobin trade. However, we will have to see how the trade actually plays out.
  2. True. To really give both players a fair shake, they need to be given the whole season next year. Highmore, for all we know, may light it up. No one can say for sure. I am a pretty happy fan of Highmore so far though. I like his effort level.
  3. Ok, and Wilson doesn't fall under Unsportsmanlike conduct?
  4. Finally, something positive to read about.
  5. Schmidt was also a top four defenseman for LV... I really question our defensive coaches, if not Green. We are quite actually a tirefire in the defensive side. There is no way Schmidt is that bad.
  6. Green is the one making the daily roster decisions...
  7. I like the fact that people slept on Motte at the beginning, and then he gradually became a fan favourite. Now I'm not saying that will necessarily happen with Highmore, but people should be looking at how much better of a fit Highmore is for the team. He plays hard. He forechecks well. He makes the safe plays (most of the time). Gaudette lacks the consistency like Goldobin. If Goldobin's game wasn't good enough to justify a roster, why would Gaudette have a spot?
  8. Even as a joke, threatening a head of state is extremely poor taste. We don't do this $&!#, even if it's a leader that has royally &^@#ed up.
  9. Do you ever have any fresh takes? Could you recommend any good replacements? I noticed that you've consistently been making excuses for Green. Or am I mistaken? I don't think he'll survive the GM change, but I'm just guessing.
  10. How many goddamn PP's do the Oilers get tonight? Funny how one doesn't slip through for the Canucks. But the Oilers have gotten away with a few too many penalties.
  11. There were a number of missed calls leading up to the momentum changes. Everything adds up. Highmore - high hit. Schmidt - high hit And interference. That goal should not have counted.
  12. I'm calling it. Oilers will score in the first 2 mins of the 2nd period. Probably the first 40 seconds...
  13. Oilers given the momentum with those stupid PPs. Several missed calls favouring Canucks. Garbage reffing.
