  1. Boeser needs Will Smith from Men in Black to clear his mind. And if that doesn't work he could use Will Smith from the Oscars. Either way, the guy needs Will Smith. Fortunately there's one available to draft this year.
  2. I gotta give him credit. Didn't like him being chosen but he's grown as a coach and he has actually held guys responsible (which was the only part I was excited about). I've disliked the systems of his teams he's coached before but so far it's working. We shall see what he does with the team next season. This team has had talent for a long time but lacked accountability. It's why they're Jekyll and Hyde. I wonder how the team does if they stop playing for the coach.
  3. We need to start challenging every goal against us, regardless of whether it's a good goal or not.
  4. Having consequences for your actions tends to work for some people. No way Tocchet was gonna tolerate what Bruce allowed him to do.
  5. I wish I could remember who all wanted to trade JT so I could judge them silently in my own time.
  6. He's saving us from having to listen to Harnaryan Singh (I have no idea how to spell his name).
  7. I feel the same with Podkolzin as well. The tools of both these players are there.
  8. Such a weird take. Kuzmenko is still young enough to remain competitive by the time the team is ready. Plus he doesn't rely on his speed to generate either so he should be okay for his later contract years.
  9. I agree. I anticipate him actually gelling with the team well offensively but he's not a shutdown damn so I'm just praying the way we play defense doesn't murder him in his own end. Ultimately there's lots of growth with the new coach as well and there will be huge turnover on the back end so by the time we're competitive anyways it'll look completely different. Still young and can piece together the back end portion of his game as well.
  10. Yep. We will never know, can only speculate and wish our team had access to trade offers, trade talks, players, etc. There's so many factors that go into trades that nobody ever knows about from the players to the gm's to ownership's input which leads to disappointments from fans league wide. We could have had Gretzky for Pete's sake!
  11. Spectacular. Panarin's was more impressive due to the share of points on the team at the time but both are still unbelievably good. To get these players from the bargain bin is insanely fortunate. Edit: not to mention the value we should get from Kuzie over the next two years will be sooo wonderful.
  12. Hey if Hronek becomes better than Chychrun feel free to quote me. I don't think it's a big stretch to assume as much, but what do I know?
  13. I agree but if you can take a #1-2 dman for a 2nd more as opposed to a top 4 you're taking that all day. Don't forget Hronek wasn't cheap for his spot in the lineup either.
  14. I love it even more that McDavid basically is giving him the ultimate middle finger by shattering his goal scoring for taking his trophy lol.
  15. Really? The team that refuses to buy any players of any value and incurring dead IR contracts to reach the cap floor? The team intentionally tanking for several years ongoing? The team so cheap that they moved to a school to play hockey?
  16. Because it appeared as if the gm that sold him was desperate because he clearly undersold what he told everybody what he'd sell for. He took the highest available off after burning bridges it appears like. Obviously nobody knows ultimately though.
