  1. Much appreciated... Like them so much that I changed my name... well I've been wanting to change name for a while... Was just waiting for the right one!
  2. Or load up first line: Hogs-Petey-Podz And/Or 1st PP
  3. Very quick elusive, small burst moves. Edge work is close to elite.
  4. "I will break you...." Podz
  5. I'll say it again... Hogs will be the second most skilled forward on this team in two years bar none... Barring a major injury. He's looking awesome! So pumped!
  6. Kinda got that... I obviously don't have a clue of what I'm talking about! Thanks for the 'edgimication'.
  7. Unfortunately I wasn't joking... But was wondering what he's worth, hence the question mark. Thanks for the correction. Was wondering though... If he is retained and they want him paired with Hughes. Wouldn't they end up being 2nd pair (because of Hughes?). If so, then low end second pairing $? Or third pairing $ as you suggest?
  8. 'Backup Brian' lol! But in all seriousness, he should be effective in that roll. Hart looks like the real deal... Well he better be for Phillys sake!
  9. I hope you're right and he comes back. Like you said, I think he has more value here then on the open market. Regardless, even if he gets paid for that value here, it should still be at a reasonable cap number. Maybe 4 to 5 million over two years?
  10. Who is this source? Wild speculation I'm sure. Man the media out east and around here as well as some fans on CDC.... Just brutal. Edit: Ian Mac.... Nuf' said.
  11. Let's start making t-shirtz!! Lol!
  12. I think Benning should go high salary short term. 3 years 24 million. Front loaded with limited NTC. Something like year one 10, second 7, and third 7. Crazy?
  13. I could see his team mates calling him 'Vasi' but I like Podz!
  14. I don't know if he will bring 'more' but I'd agree that he has skill sets we've been lacking. I feel Zegras has MORE overall high end skill, BUT his style is closer to what we already have in Petey. Whereas Pod, I believe has complementary skills to Petey and make our team, as a whole, more complete.
  15. A very thorough no. You have a bunch of well articulated points that point to the canucks not making it this year. I will agree that odds are them not making it verses not. I just believe they will find a way and surprise the majority naysayers.
  16. I understand but the question is for right now (pull out your crystal ball!)... What do you think? Gotta put your neck out there. I think absolutely! I see us either 'overachieving' and getting in the #6-7 spot and making a run to at least deep into the second round or just missing and moving up into the top 3 of the lottery! Either way this seasons going to be a great one... gauranteed!
  17. Hopefully he'll be taking LE's #21 soon! (Even though he's at least a year away)... But that would be a sick jersey me thinks! Would do that # proud!
  18. By this time next year I think Hoglander will top 2-3. What about Rathbone?
  19. Thank you.... You are a fan that I respect because you're level headed. Was really dissapointed with the reaction today. Maybe I should know better as a high % of CDC fan base seem to react in a negative way about almost any changes initially and then a % of those fans calm down and take a slightly less harsh stance given time. Has Benning and staff not built any goodwill in this fan base yet? What did you say?.... Not until they make some noise in the playoffs? Well, isn't that what the management is attempting to do right now?! Can we just sit back and see how they perform on ice before we throw Benning and staff under the bus? Probably asking to much hey? Really to bad because the team in my view got a lot better over the last week with Edler signing, the Hog & Pod drafting and JT Miller trade. All we need is a high end FA defencemen and get to watch a much improved exciting team. A team that I now believe will make the playoffs next year as a result of these changes. Is that so bad?
  20. History takes no sides... Just when you think you know what will happen... It changes. Just ask the Raptor fans or Blues fans.
  21. Okay... Well we'll agree to disagree. Let's pick this chat up in a couple years.
