  1. Waive him when another guy gets healthy
  2. they average around 6-3 to 6-4 at about 220-230 pounds tough going to get to their crease
  3. Without a solid defense in front of him it'll be tough going no matter what we call him. The Tampa goalie has better stats because of the defense in front of him.
  4. Another thing I noticed in this mornings game was he looked kinda 'bored' if that could be a thing. Here because of the ice surface difference he had to be involved in every play and in the crease. The most excited he looked was in helping kill those last 2 minutes to protect a one goal lead. I hope he watches our game last night.
  5. Dawes looks like a good choice for the C. Scores regularly leads by example. What scares me is the Atvo D didn't look as good as the last time I watched them. I hope their just sitting another good D man for the game. I really hope they win it all this year. Their playoffs begin in Feb/Mar I think.
  6. Try looked good today.Played a quiet game, stay at home style (only one puck carrying rush into the O zone). One hit was funny a player purposely fell onto the ice in the corner rather than being hit by Try. Tryamkin had one real good hit on a 50 50 puck in the neutral zone. He wasn't trying to nail the guy but did.Crunched him. Try was out for the last 2 minutes to seal a one goal win. Another thing I noticed is that Try can blow through a pick/screening player easy with one swipe of the paw. Which he did once to get to the puck carrier. I hope Atvo wins the cup this year and Try can knock that off his bucket list. Dawes looked good scoring on a breakaway.
  7. Woo looked good in that interview last night! Can't wait for him to develop.
  8. Beag's and Roussel are definitely what the Dr ordered... Sutter too!!!
  9. I think he's focusing more on his playmaking right now. But I agree that he can hit more.I think now's the time for him to take a page out of Stan Smyl's handbook and hit hard when they hit us hard like tit for tat. ie controlling the tempo of the game which is why I like Roussell so much.
  10. Jake is play is well! I love how he carries the puck in with confidence and looks for the outlet!! the hitting is a thing of beauty and icing on the cake
  11. When he gets 3 cups we'll talk . He has way better skills than me. Father Madden on Tyler.
  12. Jake is earning respect out there for his hitting. Guys are checking to make sure, they don't want to make the highlight reel.
  13. whoa what year was that? and were you there?
  14. TO is going to be between a rock and a hard place soon... hand me the popcorn.
  15. That's a great memory! Thanks for sharing! any pics?
  16. Yes, Beag's and Sutter send him back to Utica. But I sense a trend in our development system that young guys are reigned in and instructed to be defense first and error free shifts, and first man back.
  17. He reminds me of Greg 'Gus' Adams with his similar size, the Greg Adams that scored 189 goals for us 88-95. I think Gauds could use a little more confidence in his game. Some of that Hobey swagger.
  18. A bridge deal 4.5 for 3-4 years.
  19. Wow, that's in the ballpark where I've been guessing, thanks Sterlitz, I think he can get a bridge deal here between 3-5 million. And I think he wants to win a championship for Atvo this year as well, but man he has left a lot of money on the table for his hometown. And his family I should add.
