  1. Gagner and Erickson only had 10 goals each last year. I bet Dahlen and Gaudette could beat that easy.
  2. That's news indeed. Hopefully it makes it easier for his transition back here. Having the C would just make it harder I think.
  3. Dahlen has actually surprised me. I am really hoping he carries on with his scoring going forward from here. EP definitely helps.
  4. Watched that game and was wonderin myself. Probably a small injury I'd imagine. Dawe wore the C that game and scored too
  5. His nickname should be Ulf. or Wolf.
  6. Ohh so that's the Dahlen son of Ulf!! That's great! It's very hard to remember which Dahlen is which Lol Good genes, will have a good compete level. Hope he doesn't fade if he starts in Utica. We have so many options. Aside from EP,who will be up here.My thinking is that we insert only those young players that are physically ready for 60-80 NHL games. Gaudette, MacEwen, Palmu and OJ all seem to have the bulk for the pro's. Dahlen has the compete but we do need to see him out perform Ericksson, Gagner, Goldy and Liepsic. I wouldn't mind seeing Dahlen, Lind, Jasek and Gadz take the year to bulk up some. That means some placeholders get a bye.
  7. Not just Hutton but all our D need to start scoring.
  8. Hypothetically speaking which UFA would have been the better add at his 6 million dollar price tag?
  9. He's got time to develop now with Roussel and Schaller ahead of him. No need to rush him.
  10. I think the KHL will have a tough time to match what he can get paid here. He'd have to be almost the highest paid player in the league there. And I don't see that. Those salaries go to high scoring forwards.
  11. First Avtomobilist game, Try looks good, fit, couple of nice hits and one nice end to end rush. Looked good on the PK. Almost out of position once trying for a hit. Huge center ice area to cover. 0to 0 in the 1st. Second period teams traded goals all tied 2-2 Try with one nice back hand poke check all the way around a player to keep the puck in O zone. Half way through the third Try tries to break the tie pushing the puck over the blue line into a breakaway. Sexton w a PP goal puts Avto up by 2 with 5 minutes left. Avto 4-2
  12. I think Green should go Old School and staple open ended plane tickets on the locker room bulletin board.
  13. I really hope he doesn't rush back too soon. Getting re-injured would just set him back even more. Get healthy and come back and start where he left off.
  14. Palmu is my dark horse to be on the team by January and scoring a bunch of goals.
  15. He's worth a 1st rounder. But I think his value to Hughes is greater than what we could get in a trade.
  16. He would be snapped up in a NY minute, probably worth more than Tanev and Edler. Not bad for a 3rd round pick.
  17. Congrats to Tryamkin being made captain of Avtomobilist! That adds to the level of leadership shown by our prospects. And I highly doubt Avtomobilist can compete with the NHL salary he will make here when his contract runs out over there. (Just in time to add and pair with Hughes! ) For a 3rd round prospect like his ceiling level as a shut down D man good at clearing the crease.
  18. Switch him to D ala Buffy Bluffengoogen
  19. 6 million dollar checker, no thanks
