  1. the one who pouts and throws tantrums. The one who half asses it anytime he feels like it, but calls others out for the same thing. The one who has public confrontations with his teammates. The one who is, apparently, not a lot of fun to be in the dressing room with. That one
  2. I think they'll finish somewhere around 10-12
  3. unless you're a Ryan Reaves and can be a legit, contributing member, you'll never be an NHL player, or even an AHL player. Those days are gone. No one would have a GIno on their team now
  4. but he doesn't have the protection of his NTC yet. They can still move him at the tdl
  5. a big hit to the baby Canucks though, he's a huge part of that team
  6. I can see it already........Miller is going to turn it on for the new staff, impress the hell out of them until the tdl and then once he's secure in his new deal, back to the old Miller and no way to get rid of him
  7. yet, it's effectively eliminated the enforcer and it's need for one. How many dirty plays on stars are there, really?
  8. a lengthy suspension and the loss of big dollars. There are no goons in the league anymore that would target star players anyway.........even the Marchands of the league have been neutered.
  9. I didn't say you'd be getting a player at that level. I'm saying you're better of getting a good, solid player in the 21-23 age range than you are betting o a lottery ticket that has a better chnce of never playing than playing. And with GM's gone crazy with second contracts, building through the draft isn't really realistic
  10. there are no goons and having other goons doesn't stop anyone from doing things......it's just retribution after the fact. Like it or not, those days are gone
  11. that's, simply, not a part of the game anymore. Any issues that happen are dealt with at the league level and that's been far more effective than any enforcer era has been.........and that's coming from someone who played that role all through Jr. Tjose days are over and they're not coming back
  12. washington - Iorio and a 2nd NYR - Chytil and a 2nd/3rd NJ - Sherangovich and a 2nd Dal - Thomas Harley and a 2nd/3rd TO - Liljegren and a 2nd I'd take any one of those deals
  13. they're not getting a Linden Vey for Kuz........he'll be closing in on 30 goals by the tdl. They'll get a good price for him if that's the path they take. Personaly, I think they'll do everything they can to keep him, even if it means taking a bath on Boes
  14. again, I'd rather have a dman in the 21-23 range, a known asset as opposed to a possibility. I've never been much for using a 1st on a dman unless it's pretty clear that player is going to hit. There's far too much uncertainty around the development of a dman to take the chance, imo. Sure there could be tose kinds of players there, but there's a much higher chance of a player who amounts to very little at all. I wouldn't be oppposed to getting a pick as the secondary piece, but the focus should be on actual players just on the cusp of becoming solid NHL players
  15. Why would you think that? The days of building through the draft are pretty much over
  16. I don't think so, they need players, not lottery tickets. Chances are any team in on Kuz will be in the bottom 1/3 of the round, so it's not going to be a high pick. That said, I guess you could package it to move up. But, I'd rather have a player
  17. some might.......some who have zero understanding of the Criminal Code of Canada
  18. explosion! These guiys are so fun to watch. Always fun kicking the crap out of TO, regardless of what league
