  1. This is why i'm hoping Myers-Hughes becomes a pairing next year (and moving fwd). Myers is better with the puck than Tanev. Or Tryamkin-Hughes
  2. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he keeps our streak of Calder finalists going.
  3. I agree... it takes smarts (anticipation and picking your spots) and JV seems to lack in hockey IQ.
  4. We have to sacrifice somewhere to sign/resign higher priority players. If we can't find a cheaper replacement then we let Sutter be 4C or find out what we have in Graovac. (i didn't say we need to move Beagle... i said we need to move 2 of the group of 4 i listed) Our PK is way too passive (slow skaters?) forcing us to spend long shifts in our end anyway.
  5. I wasn't against his signing... and not knocking what he's brought... but it's time to move on to a cheaper 4th line C that can match Motte's speed
  6. I think 2 of these need to go to make room both capwise and for younger guys to develop: Loui, Sutter, Beagle, Rooster The question is what does JB have to give up to move them.
  7. While Tanev was a warrior blocking shots, he was badly exposed when the puck was on his stick. I'm not against resigning him to something affordable, but Myers is making $6M and really should be in the top 4 and paired with QH. Then we just need a decent and relatively cheap option on our 3rd pairing with OJ. Hughes-Myers Edler-Stech OJ - ???
  8. I guess i look at it like it wouldn't have been called on a team that was trailing by 2 instead of up by 2. Not a call against us in particular, but a game mgmt one nonetheless.
  9. Not even the 'hook' called on Miller at the very start of the 2nd when we clearly had momentum? Even Debrusk and Burke both called it out as really weak for the playoffs. It sure seemed to me like they were looking for something to call us on at that point. After the bad delay call though, everything seemed square.
  10. Doesn't take any shifts off either. Works hard defensively without taking lazy penalties.
  11. Reserve that comment until we don't spend most of the 1st period next game on the PK
  12. Maybe after this PP.... sit Petey and Huggy ? That Smith hit could've been disastrous
  13. He is NOT who i want to see in the POs. He's not quick, not tough, and can't seem to shoot let alone score. Give me another Motte type who can match LE's defensive ability with some hustle or physicality.
  14. So? I like Lind a lot but we've got Hogs & Pods on deck too and we're losing 1 player regardless
  15. He's been great in these POs when his minutes can stay down. Not so great when he's forced to play too much.
  16. If Burke rips on the league next for the Luongo recapture then i'll know i'm in Bizarro World
  17. They literally have a 30 second conference while the replay is playing above their heads. That call isn't judgement... it's an automatic penalty if conditions are met and they weren't and it was visible
