  1. JT with 7 hits. Bo with 3 hits. If those two can get 10 good hits a game that's good for our forwards. Add Schenn and Lammikko, Michael Myers, and Hammer's. About hitting. Those that can, should.
  2. We're team smurf and get out physicalled by almost every team. Every team has one tactic, pressure the puck and finish their checks. They know turnovers and weak passes ensue. Gimme big guys in for Hunt and Highmore that can hit and finish checks. And I don't know what Dickinson is for. We have a lot of NHL skill, but it's being negated by hustle and hitting and being out muscled. How many times are you worried watching puck battles behind our net? EP, Hogz, Garland, Hughes, Hunt, Brock and maybe even Motte are not the most physical bunch. Add 2 physical players 11% more physical pressure on the opponents.
  3. Tryamkin's team mate Kovar their old goalie bought out his contract last year.
  4. We got Try's rights this year wonder if they could sign him for the rest of the season. His team ended their season a couple weeks ago. Eliminated from the playoffs. 1M. His new KHL season doesn't start till September I think.
  5. He would be great. His team has finished for the season. Heck sign him for the rest of the season. 1M. He can finish the season and God willing some playoff games.
  6. We seem to pay whenever we drop down to 5 Dmen. I want a physical hitting dman on the 4th line. What 7-8 mins? As insurance for these 8-10 games every season. As a softer type team I feel we need to. Pools, Burr, Rathbone even Schenn. Especially running a no name crew.
  7. We need a shooter on LD. I think OEL. Switch Hughes over.
  8. Let's make a 3rd PP unit of Myers OEL Podz Lammikko Garland Blue collar unit
  9. Our pp can't habitually fail. That cannot continue. Coach B needs a defibrillator for both units.
  10. Time to try something different on the PP. Maybe OEL as the left point shooter and move Hughes over. Shots on net seem to be OEL's forte. Try Myers as net front screen. Lack of PP success seems to be draining the enthusiasm of the guys. Coach B can't let them be hanging their heads after failing to score. I'd like to see where we are getting our shots from.
  11. That's a heavy team over there.. I like Highmore's hustle but I'd rather see a banger there to hit defenseman. When we hit it means our intensity is up. We got a bit lazy there and let them back in it We weren't hitting like we have been. I felt we let our foot off the gas. We need that killer instinct, sweep the leg, no mercy attitude. Meier should have been our target. Their game goes through him.
  12. I have feelings that's the only way to separate Coach B and Mike
  13. I feel that we'd have to win this trade BECAUSE our guy could be the best option for them to be able to win the cup.
  14. Just read somewhere that had like 4 or 5 'untouchables' that included the players we were interested in. Some radio discussion.
  15. Gauranteed JT would be captain there within 2 years, IF they paid our price.
