  1. Would like to see a little more out of the Horvat line
  2. I can't even imagine how difficult it will be to decide our ultimate lineup I wonder if we did something outlandish, if it would work, like putting Eriksson on the top line lol
  3. In my opinion, this off season is a key one for thinning the heard of mediocrity, as much as possible. Also, trading redundancies and depreciating assets when able. To me: Stecher, Tanev, Sutter, Baertschi, Errikson, Motte, Granlund, Leivo, Hutton and possibly Markstrom, are all potentials to be used for a deal to improve
  4. pfft, shows what you know.
  5. I would agree that he seems to be playing hurt or at least cautiously. I have seen him knock a guy or two down, but only in a very controlled manner and opportunistically. He is definitely not playing the way I've seen him play. Not engaging much in the play
  6. Seems like a well-rounded player. Only thing I would see as a concern, is a junior player who's game relies that much size/strength, translating into the NHL. Attempting some of his techniques against NHL defenders may not work out as well. In juniors his size has more of an impact. Perhaps down the road in the NHL he may be able to impose his will a little more. He does have a good skating ability, shot and tenacity. Love the back-hander
  7. I think many people are going to be disappointed when we do not make any deals beyond Luongo. I hope i'm wrong
  8. We do need that, but I don't think any team will give up that kind of talent for Kesler
  9. I agree. I was curious to see a poll of how many thought we would actually move Kesler
  10. This game is needed for us; its getting our guys fired up
  11. Hopefully that goal wont be a false sense of security for us
  12. Wow, everyone here is pretty negative. I don't think our core players suck. Besides being in a slump, I think it has to do with the supporting cast. It is clear to me, as it has been since the summer, that we are not trying to win this year. We are using this as a transition year. MG is planning to make a push next year. The cap will rise, there will be a half-decent FA crop, we can get a better draft pick as a middler and make the big push when we have the flexibility. I saw this coming. That's why he just went for bargains in the off season. See how our youth performs, our new coaching staff does, restock the cupboards a bit, more cap space and more options. Then go nuts.
  13. YESSSSSSSS, I can't believe that was free
  14. I am definitely happy with the period we had. We need to go all out in the second. We have to win now
  15. The reffing is definitely not perfect, but we should be focusing on our play, as that is what will win us the game.
  16. Damn; I was just looking at the remaining schedule and it is frightening! How many times we have 4 games in six nights, all the back to backs.................. I am sincerely unsure if we'll even make the playoffs...........
  17. SHUUUUUTTTTTTOOOOOUUUUUTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
