  1. Juolevi and Rafferty play opposite sides so they aren't competing with each other....Raff is competing with Chatfield and soon Hamonic...
  2. .....Virtanen's legs... Also Rafferty isn"t getting much time to show his stuff....
  3. Both his goals would have been goals in the NHL.....fast,skilled and accurate plays...
  4. It's not everyone...but to many for me to stay silent... Their tune will change soon enough....
  5. All this talk of Podz being disappointing is....just wrong.... Open your eyes people ....watch the players not just the game.... Podz stole at least 4-5 pucks and turned the play the other way....he had the same # of hits...he came close to scoring 3-4 times over the 2 games and his linemates did not make any good passes to him...only the other way around. Someone mentioned Landeskog as a comparable and that seems about right to me.... Podz will be fine.... Just watch....! ...try squinting and looking out of the corner of your eye if you can't see it already...!
  6. The 4-6 man "taxi squad" can be used to save cap by putting louie and Sven on it...just read that today...it seemed to imply that the whole salary was saved not just the million or so under normal "send down" conditions....
  7. ....sure....sure...but did you see him hop over boards like a yak wabbit after he got there....
  8. As others have said ...Jack will have to play close to Quinn's level ...just to be considered for a top 6 spot... Maybe the taxi squad might work if they get him in every 3 game or so...otherwise he should go the AHL whenever that happens....just to be able to play games.
  9. He is probably just hoping he can find immediate chemistry with Petey and JT.... Then he won't have to play much D., ....just be ready for the Petey stretch pass and don't get beat down the wing...for the few seconds per shift they will be defending...
  10. Probably....but Dahlen has more points in the same league (actually he is leading the league in points)... Linus has a more rounded game and it will likely transfer better too the NHL...
  11. If he tries that headbutt in the NHL.... Marchand is going to lick him.... ...Silliest penalty I have seen outside of the NHL...
  12. Podz is used....by all his coaches....on the PK ...he also backchecks...if he gets a chance with Greener this year...he will backcheck his arse off...consistantly = ....no....
  13. That move/pass is just what EP needs to start scoring 50+ goals a year....Podz. on the other side retrieving pucks and storming the net.... ....unstoppable...!
  14. I do believe we are looking at another lock to be an energy 3rd liner at the least....just needs another half-step and that's about it....
  15. ...I hear you...but ...Lind can only dream of scoring a Lacrosse goal...probably even in practise... It's all about the "drive factor" with these high end kids...Hogs and Podz...both have that...so it is just a question of when (not if) they become NHL regulars and which line they top out at... Edit;;;I wanted Seider bad that draft...months before the draft I was thinking we could trade down and get him in 20"s or so of the first round...but he kept climbing the ranks due to his play at the worlds...he is going to be an impact player and maybe even this year...I see no reason Hog's won't be right behind him...maybe a year behind...he is a year younger...or so....
  16. Podz looks like what we hoped Jake would be...a hard nosed guy who drives the net through people if he can't get around them...and actually really tries to score...instead of just getting the puck on net and skating by hoping it went in... Jake could learn from him...I hope he is over here this season to help be tuff to play against...!
  17. Seider is a top 10 pick and a hell of a player...he could play in the NHL this year no problem....
  18. Schmidt is better than Tanev on O. and doesn't get hurt as much....Rafferty and Juolevi could well do better than Stecher and Fantenburg.... Big Mac is really an add too the top 9 and we didn't really have Toffoli in our playoff run anyway... EP and QH will be better ...and that alone adds up to more than anything we lost for forwards.... In goal we have a young stud and a great vet. .....that could well do better than Marky and his backup... We make the playoffs next year as welll....! Just watch.....!
  19. So let's see...the kid has size....the kid can skate like the wind...the kid can shoot...the kid can make moves at speed... What am I missing...that caused him to fall so far down in the draft? Looks like a high 2nd rounder to me....at worst...
  20. Bobby Orr is now dead to me....and it is obvious he has suffered severe brain damage....supporting a candidate who has lied 10,000 times and wants to send the world into chaos....! Was the best D. ever....now the dumbest darkest idiot on the planet next to the idiot he is supporting....!
  21. Kid can skate and seems to know what he's doing....seems like a good pick to me...!
  22. At this point I don't what he can do to make this right....but trading Erikkson to a team that needs to meet the salary cap floor, by adding a 3rd round pick or Lind ...for either a bag of pucks or a borderline NHL'er would be a start....
  23. If he doesn't have something up his sleeve....he won't be able to afford a shirt with sleeves soon.....
  24. If he doesn't have something up his sleeve....he won't be able to afford a shirt with sleeves soon.....
  25. I am waiting on pins and needles for something good to happen here.... Benning has to make a deal now it seems and it better be a good one... Losing Toffoli and Tanev must mean he has something else up his sleeve....but...what....?
