  1. Signing that contract in the first place one year ago is terrible though. Dumbass doesn't deserve credit for wasting draft capital to clean up the mess he made.
  2. Really good value for LA. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them take a run at the Cup similar to NYR.
  3. Previous management would have traded our first.
  4. I like our fourth as well. We need cheap bottom six players coming through the system and developing our own is the best way to do that.
  5. OP most likely expected him to be gone already.
  6. You're overreacting. The veterans are going to be the ones driving the culture and JR will be making his mark over the next month or so. Go outside or something and have a little patience.
  7. However everyone does need to buy in. Washington didn't win the Cup until Ovechkin worked at becoming a 200 foot player.
  8. He is far from soft or small. Our next pick was a 6'4 center who likes to use his size.
  9. Between good and average. Hard to tell without knowing what kind of offers were available for Miller.
  10. Maybe they'll move and change their name again.
  11. You expect an 18 year old kid to be a driving force for changing the culture?
  12. They at least had different first names.
  13. That's likely the route we eventually take with Rathbone.
  14. How many 4th rounders or later have you actually watched play?
  15. No one on here has even seen all of the options play.
  16. Sounds like he'll be a good one. I'll have to make sure to get to a Grizzlies game when the Chiefs are in town.
  17. Kronwall, Samuelsson brothers are more examples of Swedish defenceman who no one would consider to be teddy bears. All reports indicate that this Pettersson plays a physical game so I fail to see the reason for v complaint.
  18. Ohlund and Edler were both bigger Swedish defenceman who had no issue knocking people down. The kid's 18 and does need to fill out, just like most kids at his age. Draft what you're actually good at developing and make trades where you need to. Nashville is a good example of a team that generally does this well.
  19. So you think our 15th overall selection would have dropped out of the first round despite many having him in the top 10? I'm not in favour of limiting our options by nationality unless there's a potential issue with actually getting the player over. We've had pretty good luck with Swedes and they tend to like the city.
  20. Nice pick. We need more defence and his style should fit well.
  21. The issue was in the playoffs. He's fine in the regular season, but winning is clearly not a priority for him. I wouldn't want a guy who is that lazy to be anywhere near my roster.
  22. So you consider the effort he puts in the playoffs to be acceptable. We'll have to agree to disagree then.
  23. I do have a minimum standard for effort and don't have much tolerance for gutlsss floaters. Allowing guys like Marner to continue with their lazy play is what creates a culture where backchecking is optional.
