    Could Bowers become a 3rd line centre or not heavy enough to grind?
  2. amplified0ne
    They need more secondary scoring and their goaltending isnt tested but yeah having Bergeron and Krejci helps
  3. amplified0ne
    Do we even have cap next year, lol. Are they shelving Pearson and who knows whats going to happen with Poolman. We need to shed cap by giving away what little assets we have as no one wants our loser players.
  4. amplified0ne
    Not like they got much to begin with a 4th and a 5th rounder, but it is being aggressive to get more chips as currently a playoff team to be able to move a bad contract in the offseason if they choose to. A stanley cup contender unlikely but who knows who might come out of the west this year.

    He was a 1 hit wonder and wasnt great in the playoffs. Too much against the cap for a cap strapped team even with 50% retention. There should be capable backup goalies with NHL experience in free agency that we dont have to spend much on.

    Kane just a beast this past week after 2 of the teams he was rumored to be interested made other deals

    What about the other teams in the league that build winners without top picks. Eventually yes they will go through a bad cycle but 10+ years of darkness and we have no prospects coming. Its not just about the 1st round and even then some of the best players in the league were not drafted in the 1st round.

    Bruce deserves the coach of the year, one hell of a job to get this team close to the playoffs last year and to dig themselves out of the early hole to near .500 mid way through the season while being thrown under the bus at every opportunity that's an incredible accomplishment.
  10. amplified0ne
    Truthfully, I'd rather seen Bruce behind the bench until the end of the season, at least there were some goals for.
  11. amplified0ne
    What about the PK? It is some next level trash, no coach can uncoach whatever it is they are doing
  12. amplified0ne
    Really he only became mediocre/trash after Demko went out with injury. We were riding him at the start of the year when he was the only one getting points. Its tough because of the way this team defends but yeah at this stage he can't be 1A/1B tandem, only a backup and that's now debatable as the sample size is bigger and teams/shooters have more of a book on him.
  13. amplified0ne
    Former Portland Winterhawk...oh wait
  14. amplified0ne
    You think he'd even entertain coming back after being treated as he has this year? No way unless you way overpaid. While he scores goals and wins faceoffs, he's not great defensively and doesnt fit a 3rd C role. They have to hope Miller is a C or they better have a way to trade wingers for a C or get someone in free agency that can fill 2C/3C role.
  15. amplified0ne
    Eventually we will be competitive (I hope), that dead cap could be a killer. Either way it sucks but given Kuzmenko's age I think they'd been better off trying to pick up an asset pick or prospect.
  16. amplified0ne
    So more dead cap, how many years/decades even this team going to basically pay players to not play for them.
  17. amplified0ne
    Probably means this team will have to either add assets, retain dollars, get pennies on the dollar to get rid of cap. Its short sighted but understandable given his performance.
  18. amplified0ne
    More teams have video of him now and have scouted him. Initially he started off on fire getting points in every game he played. But when asked to do more than capable of we see the result. He's fine as a back up, but in a starter tandem not so much.
  19. amplified0ne
    At this point they are better off trading Demko in the offseason. He's already showing signs of his body breaking down from the wear and tear, plus he will probably age out before we are any good. Find a decent 2.5million dollar goalie on a 1 year deal in the offseason and ride with them and Martin next year.
  20. amplified0ne
    Demko was playing near Vezina caliber last year before his injury and they STILL couldn't make the playoffs. The AAA chances this team gives up is baffling, its either they dont care and just looking to stat pad and get paid or they are incapable of basic team defense. Probably a little of both, how many coaches cant fix this god awful PK. That is a clear and obvious sign.
  21. amplified0ne
    He got us to the playoffs legitimately with the Sedin's aging and less talent than this current roster has
  22. amplified0ne
    Except Minny had/has a prospect pool and relatively deep defense core to help absorb it, we clearly do not.
  23. amplified0ne
    What message does it really send if we get blasted. Technically JT has an out, as he only played 10mins lol
  24. amplified0ne
    If management had a vision for this team it would sell off ASAP for whatever it can get for anyone. At least the fans could understand what the hell the plan is. Total embarrassment this team is. At least it could score goals but that will probably end with this coaching regime.
  25. amplified0ne
    It matters if you have a job or not after. With rumors there are 2 associate coaches also coming with Tocchet, which may mean he's already negotiated his own coaches.
